Platform: [Ivy] 9.0.0-beta.0 - Life Cycle Effects Hook loses context

[jerryorta-dev]

NgRX 9.0.0-beta.0 , Angular 9.0.0, Node 12.3.0:

The lifecycle ngrxOnInitEffects is broken - it loses the context of "this" so code inside that hook doesn't understand the class properties, methods, constructor injections -- Rolling back to 8.6.0 works.

Experiencing the same issue. This can be reproduced by adding an ngrxOnInitEffects to the NgRx example-app repo.

class AuthEffects implements OnInitEffects {
  ngrxOnInitEffects(): Action {
    return { type: '[Auth]: Auth Init' };
  }

initAuth$ = createEffect(() =>
    this.actions$.pipe(
      ofType('[Auth]: Auth Init'),
      tap(action => {
        console.log('test ngrxOnInitEffects');
      })
    ),
  { dispatch: false });
}

I haven't verified if this is the culprit, but there has been a change to OnInit in the v9 release - https://github.com/ngrx/platform/commit/a528320dc05fbe91959f91870535b1bd7487d142
