Create vuex entities names without headache

npm i create-vuex-entities

If you shot your leg with naming of mutations, or actions, or getters -- this module can solve this problem!

import { createMutations } from 'create-vuex-entities'
const PREFIX = 'counter'
const mutations = createMutations(PREFIX, [
  'increment',
  'decrement'
])
const counter = {
  mutations: {
    [mutations.increment]: (state) => state.score + 1,
    [mutations.decrement]: (state) => state.score - 1
  }
}
export { mutations }

That's it! Now we have unique mutations and can use they anywhere without troubles.

import { mapMutations } from 'vuex'
import { mutations } from 'path/to/counter/module'

export default {
  name: 'Counter',
  methods: {
    increment () {
      this.$store.commit(mutations.increment)
    },
    decrement () {
      this.$store.commit(mutations.decrement)
    }
  }
}

mutations.increment equals to couter/mutation/increment and mutations.decrement to couter/mutation/decrement.

You also can create getters by createGetters, actions by createActions, modules by createModules.

Creating of custom entities

If you want to create custom entities names, you should use createEntities.

import { createEntities } from 'create-vuex-entities'

const PREFIX = 'test'
const TYPE = 'custom'
const customEntitiesList = createEntities(TYPE, PREFIX, [
  'foo',
  'bar'
])

It'll create test/custom/foo and test/custom/bar. You also can create basic types of entities with this function.

But why? There is exist namespaced property

namespaced makes modules isolated, but not this package. Other modules can work with each other.

When I tried to use namespaced property for store modules I spent many time for searching name of mutation/action that I need. That's not cool :crying_cat_face:

In the other case I used this package and export mutations names in file that I need. All troubles were resolved and I was not wasted my time for manually writing names. That's very cool :smirk_cat:
