Redux - how to call an action creator from inside another activity creator?

I have the following action creator:

export function foo(param) {
    ...
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

and I want to call it from the adjacent action creator (in the same file) like this:

export function bar(param){
    return (dispatch, getState) => {
        dispatch({
            type: ATYPE.SET_DO_THIS_BEFORE_FOO,
            payload: param
        });

        foo(param);
    }
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

but the action creator is foo

not triggered from within bar

. Is there a way to do this?
