Fulcro mystery - why is initial state not normalized in the DB?

fulcro-init-state-denormalized.cljs

(defsc Person [this {:person/keys [name] :as props}]
  {:query         [:ui/modified? :person/id :person/name :address/city :address/state]
   :ident         :person/id
   :initial-state (fn [{:keys [id name city state]}] {:person/id id
                                                      :person/name name
                                                      :address/city city
                                                      :address/state state})}
  (dom/li
    (dom/h5 (pr-str props))))

Solution

There are 2 problems:

1. L14 should have been {:query [:people (comp/get-query Person)]
2. L15 mixes the template and lambda forms; it should have been either

:initial-state (fn [_] {:people [(comp/get-initial-state Person {:id 0 :name "Sally" :city "Nowhere" :state "GA"})
                                 (comp/get-initial-state Person {:id 1 :name "Tom" :city "There" :state "OH"})]}

or a full template.
