@briebug/ngrx-smartish v0.0.1-alpha.2

NgRx Smartish

NgRx Smartish is a small utility library that makes creating "smartish" components in Angular a breeze. Smartish Components mixed with NgRx, provide a clean and declartive approach to building applications in Angular.

Getting Started

You can install the package using npm install @briebug/ngrx-smartish

Next you will need to import NgrxSmartishModule in app.module as well as provide store using the SMARTISH_STORE_TOKEN.

import { NgRxSmartishModule, SMARTISH_STORE_TOKEN } from '@briebug/ngrx-smartish';
imoprt { StoreModule, Store } from '@ngrx/store';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
      NgRxSmartishModule,
      StoreModule.forRoot({...})
  ],
  providers: [{ provide: SMARTISH_STORE_TOKEN, useClass: Store }]
})
export class AppModule {}

SmartSelect

With NgRx Smartish you can reference NgRx Selectors directly in your Angular Component's template without the need to inject the store. You simple need to add the MemoizedSelector in your component class and reference that property with the smartSelector pipe in your template.

import { selectError } from 'YOUR-STORE'

@Component({
    selector: 'app-error',
    template: `<p>{{ selectors.selectError | smartSelect | async }}</p>`
})
export class ErrorComponent {
    selectors = { selectError };
}

SmartDispatch

With NgRx Smartish you can dispatch actions directly in your Angular Component's template without the need to dispatch an @Output() EventEmitter or injecting the store. You simply can use either the smartDispatch or smartAction methods.

smartAction

With NgRx Smartish smartAction you can call dispatch on your actions directly in your component templates.

import { smartAction } from '@briebug/ngrx-smartish';
import { tacoAdded } from '...my-actions';

@Component({
    selector: 'app-component',
    template: `<button (click)="addTaco.dispatch($event)">Add Taco</button>
})
export class MyComponent {
    addTaco = smartAction(tacoAdded);
}

smartDispatch

With NgRx Smartish smartDispatch you can automatically dispatch actions in your component templates. (Note: This is similar to smartAction but it calls dispatch automatically for you)

import { smartDispatch } from '@briebug/ngrx-smartish';
import { tacoAdded } from '...my-actions';

@Component({
    selector: 'app-component',
    template: `<button (click)="addTaco($event)">Add Taco</button>
})
export class MyComponent {
    addTaco = smartDispatch(tacoAdded);
}

NgRxSmartishComponent

With NgRx Smartish you can reference your NgRx store directly in your Components classes (or templates) without providing the store in the constructor. It's as easy as having your component extends NgRxSmartishComponent.

@Component({
    selector: 'app-tacos',
    template: `<app-taco *ngFor="let taco of (tacos$ | async)" [taco]="taco></app-taco>`
})
export class TacosComponent extends NgRxSmartishComponent {
    tacos$ = store.select(selectTacos);
}

Testing

Testing with NgRxSmartish is made simple with the NgRxSmartishTestingModule. Just import NgRxSmartishTestingModule into your TestBed with the forRoot() static method. You can also pass an optional MockStoreConfig inside of forRoot() to save you from having to provide provideMockStore(...) in your tests.

const config = { };
describe('YourSmartishComponent', () => {
  beforeEach(async () => {
    imports: [NgRxSmartishTestingModule.forRoot({ initialState: {...}})],
    declarations: [YourSmartishComponent]
  });
});
