easy-ts-redux v0.0.8

Easy-TS-Redux

Write Redux in TS with minimum or zero boilerplate

• Redux Ducks compliant
• Immer - built in support
• Redux Saga - scalable async handling with generators

Installation

npm i easy-ts-redux

or

yarn add easy-ts-redux

Usage

Two major part: easyStore() and easyReducer()

Create Slices with easyReducer()

Parameters:

• initialState(required) - must be some kind of object
• prefix(required) - its for avoiding action name collision (came from ReduxDucks)

import { easyReducer } from "easy-ts-redux";

const { reducer, action, actionWithPayload, wartchers } = easyReducer(
  { foo: "bar", isEasy: true },
  "easy"
);
export default reducer;

It's genetic so you can restrict the state type

import { easyReducer } from "easy-ts-redux";

interface State {
  foo: string;
  isEasy: boolean;
}

const { reducer, action, actionWithPayload, wartchers } = easyReducer<State>(
  { foo: "bar", isEasy: true },
  "easy"
);

export default reducer;

• reducer is the Slice itself (it should be the default export)
• action() and actionWithPayload() for create your actions
• watchers() return all saga watcher function (parameter of easyStore())

Create actions with action() and actionWithPayload()

Both function has the same parameters, except actionWithPayload exept the type of the payload

• type(required) - unique identifier for the action
• saga(optional) - generator function for async data or dispatching other actions. (if provided this function get payload from action call)
• reducerFn(optional) - actual reducer function what modify the state

Important

• Either saga or reducerFn must provided (or both), otherwide the action throw an error

• saga always has one arg whitch is the type prop

• reducerFn use immer internally, this means you can freely mutate the state.

import {easyReducer} from 'easy-ts-redux';
import {put} from 'redux-saga/effects'

const {reducer, action, actionWithPayload, wartchers} = easyReducer({foo: 'bar'}, 'easy');

export const toggleEasy = action({
  type: 'TOGGLE_EASY',
  reducerFn: (state) => {
    state.isEasy = !state.isEasy;
  }
})

export const srtFoo = actionWithPayload<string>({
  type: 'SET_FOO',
  saga: function*(__reducerFnType, payload) { // __reducerFnType always provided, payload from action call
    //yield some async call
    const newPayload = payload + 'easy'
    yield put({type: __reducerFnType, payload: newPayload}) //call the reducerFn
  }
  reducerFn: (state, payload) => {
    state.foo = payload;
  }
})

const fooWatchers = watchers; // Unfortunatly you can'r export watchers out of the box
export fooWatchers;
export default reducer;

Drawback! The reducerFn's payload always be any inside actionWithPayload()

Create store with easyStore()

Parameters:

• reducer(required) - object of Slices
• watchers(optional) - Array of generated watchers
• middlewares(optional) - Array of middlewares

import {easyStore} from 'easy-ts-redux';
import foo. {fooWatchers} from "./foo"; // Since you export the reducer as default, you can use any name

//optionally create Store type
export type Store = {
  foo: ReturnType<typeof foo>
}

const store = easyStore({foo}, [fooWatchers])

This method do the followings:

• generate and run sagaMiddleware
• parse all watchers and combine them into a single array, what is consumed by sagaMiddleware
• configure @redux-devtools/extension for development mode
• create actual store
