MiniRx Store 2 (beta)
THE 1.x BRANCH
FOR 1.X PLEASE GO TOMiniRx Store provides Reactive State Management for Javascript Applications inspired by Redux. It is a global, application-wide solution to manage state and is powered by RxJS.
- 🤓 Learn about it on the docs site
- 🚀 See it in action on StackBlitz
What's Included
- RxJS powered global state management
- State and Actions are exposed as RxJS Observable
-
Store (Redux API):
- Actions
- Reducers
- Meta Reducers
- Memoized Selectors
- Effects
- Support for ts-action: Create and consume actions with as little boilerplate as possible
-
FeatureStore: Update state without actions and reducers:
-
setState()
update the feature state -
select()
read feature state -
effect()
run side effects like API calls and update feature state -
undo()
easily undo setState actions
-
-
Extensions:
- Redux Dev Tools Extension: Inspect State with the Redux Dev Tools
- Immutable Extension: Enforce immutability
- Undo Extension: Undo dispatched Actions
- Logger Extension: console.log the current action and updated state
- Framework agnostic: MiniRx works with any front-end project built with JavaScript or TypeScript (Angular, Svelte, React, Vue, or anything else)
- TypeScript support: The MiniRx API comes with TypeScript type definitions
-
Angular Integration: Use MiniRx Store the Angular way:
StoreModule.forRoot()
,StoreModule.forFeature()
, ...
Key Concepts
- The store is a single object which holds the global application state. It is the "single source of truth"
- State is exposed as RxJS Observable
- State has a flat hierarchy and is divided into "feature states" (also called "slices" in Redux world)
- For each "feature state" we can decide to use the Redux API with actions and a reducer or the Feature Store API with
setState
- State is read-only (immutable) and can only be changed by dispatching actions (Redux API) or by using setState (Feature Store API)
Installation
Install from the NPM repository using npm:
npm install [email protected]
Install the RxJS peer dependency:
npm install rxjs
Basic Tutorial
Let's dive into some code to see MiniRx in action
Store (Redux API)
MiniRx supports the classic Redux API with registering reducers and dispatching Actions. Observable state can be selected with memoized selectors.
import { Action, Store, configureStore, createFeatureSelector, createSelector } from "mini-rx-store";
import { Observable } from "rxjs";
// 1.) State interface
interface CounterState {
count: number;
}
// 2.) Initial state
const counterInitialState: CounterState = {
count: 1
};
// 3.) Reducer
function counterReducer(
state: CounterState = counterInitialState,
action: Action
): CounterState {
switch (action.type) {
case "inc":
return {
...state,
count: state.count + 1
};
default:
return state;
}
}
// 4.) Get hold of the store instance and register root reducers
const store: Store = configureStore({
reducers: {
counter: counterReducer
}
});
// 5.) Create memoized selectors
const getCounterFeatureState = createFeatureSelector<CounterState>("counter");
const getCount = createSelector(
getCounterFeatureState,
state => state.count
);
// 6.) Select state as RxJS Observable
const count$: Observable<number> = store.select(getCount);
count$.subscribe(count => console.log('count:', count));
// 7.) Dispatch an action
store.dispatch({ type: "inc" });
// OUTPUT: count: 1
// OUTPUT: count: 2
Feature Store API
FeatureStore
allows us to manage feature state without actions and reducers.
The API of a FeatureStore is optimized to select and update a feature state directly with a minimum of boilerplate.
import { FeatureStore } from "mini-rx-store";
import { Observable } from "rxjs";
// 1.) State interface
interface CounterState {
counter: number;
}
// 2.) Initial state
const counterInitialState: CounterState = {
counter: 11
};
export class CounterFeatureStore extends FeatureStore<CounterState> {
// Select state as RxJS Observable
counter$: Observable<number> = this.select(state => state.counter);
constructor() {
super('counterFs', counterInitialState)
}
// Update state with `setState`
inc() {
this.setState(state => ({...state, counter: state.counter + 1}))
}
}
Use the "counterFs" feature store like this:
import { CounterFeatureStore } from "./counter-feature-store";
const counterFs = new CounterFeatureStore();
counterFs.counter$.subscribe(count => console.log('count:', count));
counterFs.inc();
// OUTPUT: count: 11
// OUTPUT: count: 12
ℹ The FeatureStore states become part of the global state too.
Both the Redux feature state and the FeatureStore state are living next to each other in the global state object:
store.select(state => state).subscribe(console.log);
//OUTPUT: {"counter":{"count":2},"counterFs":{"counter":12}}
