What is an atom?

An atom is a data source wrapper that exposes a single piece of data through 3 different methods:

• get(): read data
• set(newValue): write data
• observe(async (data) => {}): observes data changes. Will be called initially with current data value. Observers are awaited in series.
• reset(): clear the stored value. The next get() call will return the default value* and observers will be called with the default value.

Data sources

This library provides helpers for creating atoms from multiple data sources we use in our apps

* If no defaultValue is provided, a memory atom's get() method will hang and observers will NOT be called until the first set() call.

** A storage atom needs a special isSoleWriter param to allow write access. This is because storage instances can overlap, e.g. a parent namespace can mutate a child namespace, and our storage-spec doesn't currently provide for detecting changes across those instances.

Usage

import { createInMemoryAtom, createStorageAtomFactory, fromEventEmitter } from '@exodus/atoms'

// In memory atoms
const availableAssetNamesAtom = createInMemoryAtom({
  defaultValue: {},
})

// Storage atoms
const storageAtomFactory = createStorageAtomFactory({ storage })

const acceptedTermsAtom = storageAtomFactory({
  key: 'acceptedTerms',
  defaultValue: false,
  isSoleWriter: true,
})

// Event emitter
const geolocationAtom = fromEventEmitter({
  emitter: geolocation,
  event: 'geolocation',
  get: geolocation.get,
})

Helper functions

compute({ atom, selector })

Computes an atom from another by applying a selector function to the observed data source. Returned atom is read-only, i.e. set will fail.

withSerialization({ atom, serialize, deserialize })

Computes an atom from another by serializing it's data after reading it and deserializing it before writing it.
