Not features, but maybe eventually features

• Pagination
• Global Configuration
• Error Retry
• Initial Data

Getting Started

1. Install the package:

yarn add mini-swr

2. Use the same API as SWR:

import useSWR from 'mini-swr'

const useProfile = (userId) => {
  // Fetcher won't fire if userId isn't ready yet
  return useSWR(userId ? `/api/user/${userId}` : null, fetcher)
}

function Profile(userId) {
  const { data, error } = useProfile(userId)

  if (error) return <div>failed to load</div>
  if (!data) return <div>loading...</div>

  return <div>hello {data.name}!</div>
}

API

const { data, error, isValidating, mutate } = useSWR(key, fetcher, options)

Parameters

• key: a unique key string for the request (or a function / array / null)
• fetcher: (optional) a Promise returning function to fetch your data
• options: (optional) an object of options for this SWR hook

Return Values

• data: data for the given key resolved by fetcher (or undefined if not loaded)
• error: error thrown by fetcher (or undefined)
• isValidating: if there's a request or revalidation loading
• mutate(data?, shouldRevalidate?): function to mutate the cached data

Options

• revalidateOnFocus = true: auto revalidate when window gets focused
• revalidateOnReconnect = true: automatically revalidate when the browser regains a network connection (via navigator.onLine)
• refreshInterval = 0: polling interval (disabled by default)
