persistStore's callback state is different than store.getState()

My init function runs each time my react native app is launched. On first launch, this parameter is an empty object. However, I was expecting all of the default values as declared in my reducer. What’s the intended/recommended way to use that ‘state’ parameter?

import init from '../init';
...
persistStore(AppStore, { storage: AsyncStorage }, init);

// init.js
export default (err, state) => {
  // state from function param is an empty object on first launch

  // But state from store.getState() has the default values from my reducer
  stateFromStore = AppStore.getState();
  ...
}

Thanks for telling me, I’m on my way to change my code to make it future proof 😄

ya this is a bit confusing and should be documented. in v5 the callback does not receive any arguments so it will no longer be an issue. In v5 you will either call store.getState() if needed or if you need the intermediary state you can implement a migration.
