@briebug/ngrx-auto-entity v13.1.0
NgRX Auto-Entity
Automatic entities for @ngrx! Simplifying reactive state!
Announcing: ANGULAR 12 is now supported! NgRx Auto-Entity has been updated to support the latest versions of Angular, as well as NgRx through version 12. With this update, we have also dropped support for Angular 8, meaning the supported versions of angular are 9-12.
NOTE: Angular 13 support is being researched. Starting with Ng 13, all View Engine support will be dropped from the platform completely. One of our goals with Auto-Entity has been to support older versions of angular as long as possible, given the often slower upgrade times for many companies. With Ng 13 putting the burden on library developers to support Ivy, that forces groups like ourselves to build our library to target specific instruction sets. That will increase the challenge of supporting older versions of Angular. As such, we are actively looking for ways to deal with that scenario, and hope to be prepared when the time comes.
What is it?
NgRX Auto-Entity aims to provide a seamless means of dealing with standard entity actions and effects with minimal repetitive code requirements, while preserving the fundamental nature of NgRX itself. This library is not a replacement for or alternative to NgRX. It works within the standard paradigm that NgRX has set forth, making use of actions, reducers & effects like any other NgRX application.
What Auto-Entity does do is provide a set of ready-made actions, selectors, effects & a core metareducer for handling all of the standard CRUD functionality for entities, so you neither have to write nor generate any of that code yourself. Auto-Entity supports implementing applications with recommended best practices, including good action hygiene. Auto-Entity also generates pre-fabricated facades around NgRx and the store/state, providing a cohesive, logical and simplified API into your state for those who prefer facades. Auto-Entity presents a flexible framework that you may use in its entirety for all of your entity needs, or use piecemeal as necessary in order to achieve your specific goals.
While it is not required and Auto-Entity is an entirely independent library that solely depends on Angular and NgRX, Auto-Entity manages state in a manner that is compatible with @ngrx/entity as well, in the event you wish to utilize some of the utilities from that library in your own custom reducers.
Dependencies
Auto-Entity v12
NgRx Auto-Entity v12 currently supports Angular 9-12, and the corresponding NgRx versions. Base version support is as follows:
Auto-Entity v13
NgRx Auto-Entity v13 beta is currently being developed. Upon release, we expect it to support the following base versions:
Auto-Entity v14
NgRx Auto-Entity v14 is currently being planned & researched. We are hopeful that the next version of Auto-Entity will support both versions 13 and 14 of Angular & NgRx.
