createActorContext interpreter options

[night lava]

hi - I'm really loving the reduction in boiler plate with createActorContext. I've just one question though - does anyone know where can I set the interpreter options such as devTools?

You can use withConfig.

createActorContext(machine.withConfig(options))

Awesome thanks Farzad 🙂

hmm I'm seeing

Argument of type '{ devTools: boolean; }' is not assignable to parameter of type 'InternalMachineOptions.....```

for 

const s = createMachine({}).withConfig({ devTools: true });
export const SearchContext = createActorContext(s);

Should the {devTool: true} not be the second parameter to createMachine(...) i.e. createMachine({},{devTool:true}).withContext(...)

[grand tundra]

No. In fact I was wrong too. devTools is an interpreter option and not a machine option.

I don't think there's a way to pass interpreter options to createActorContext's interpreter. I might open a PR to address that.

Actually I was thinking of useMachine not createMachine like this const [state, send, service] = useMachine(registrationFormMachine, { devTools: true }); My bad

[grand tundra]

Yeah, useMachine accepts that.

Is there still no way to pass/override options to an interpreted machine that is created outside of react?

I usually I find that I need access to the same actor (interpreted machine) from inside and outside of components, but that's not possible right?
