redux-breeze-plugin-better-promise

redux-better-promise plugin for redux-breeze

Usage

Install

npm i redux-breeze-plugin-better-promise

Apply plugin

import createBreeze from 'redux-breeze';
import reduxBetterPromisePlugin from 'redux-breeze-plugin-better-promise';

export const breezeInstance = createBreeze(actionsDefinitions, config, reduxBetterPromisePlugin);

Create simple async or sync action

Add action definition:

const actionsDefinitions = {
  foo: {
    bar: {
      type: 'better-promise',
      async: actionParam => Promise.resolve(actionParam)
    },
    baz: {
      type: 'better-promise',
      sync: actionParam => actionParam * 2,
    },
  },
};

Then you will see initial state that looks like this:

{
  foo: {
    pending: {
      bar: false,
      baz: false,
    },
    lastSucceeded: {
      bar: false,
      baz: false,
    },
    lastFailed: {
      bar: false,
      baz: false,
    },
    failed: {
      bar: false,
      baz: false,
    },
    succeeded: {
      bar: false,
      baz: false,
    },
    lastSucceeded: {
      bar: false,
      baz: false,
    },
    error: {
      bar: null,
      baz: null,
    },
    result: {
      bar: null,
      baz: null,
    },
  },
}

Use it:

import breezeInstance from 'breezeInstance';

...

handleClick = () => {
  this.props.bar(param);
}

...

connect(
  state => ({
    pending: state.foo.pending.bar, // boolean, if true action has started but has not been resolved or rejected yet
    succeeded: state.foo.succeeded.bar, // boolean, if true action has succeeded at least once since last reload
    failed: state.foo.failed.bar, // boolean, if true action has failed at least once since last reload
    lastSucceeded: state.foo.lastSucceeded.bar, // boolean, if true action suceeded last time
    lastFailed: state.foo.lastFailed.bar, // boolean, if true action failed last time
    error: state.foo.error.bar, // null|any, contains last error (reason of promise rejection or caught error) or null if action has never failed
    result: state.foo.result.bar, // null|any, contains last result or null if action has never succeeded
  }),
  {
    bar: breezeInstance.getAction('bar'),
  }
)(MyComponent);

Passing parameters to action

In the example above, first param passed to the action when dispatching, will be available as the first parameter of the async function:

this.props.bar('someData'); // promise will be resolved with 'someData' value and that value will be available in `state.foo.result.bar`

To provide more data you can use object:

this.props.myFancyAction({ foo, bar, baz });

Custom result or error handling

You can define what happens to result or errors (data which Promise is resolved or rejected with) in action definition:

const actionsDefinitions = {
  foo: {
    bar: {
      type: 'better-promise',
      async: actionParam => IWillReturnPromise(actionParam),
      result: {
        pathInState: 'result.pathInAction',
        fieldOne: 'result',
        fieldTwo: 'result.someCustomField',
        'fieldThree.subField': 'result.anotherFieldInResult',
      },
      error: {
        differentPathInState: 'error.pathInError',
        errorOne: 'error',
        errorTwo: 'error.someCustomField',
        'errorThree.subField': 'error.anotherFieldInError',
      }
    },
  },
};

Then you will see initial state that looks like this:

{
  foo: {
    pending: {
      bar: false,
    },
    lastSucceeded: {
      bar: false,
    },
    lastFailed: {
      bar: false,
    },
    failed: {
      bar: false,
    },
    succeeded: {
      bar: false,
    },
    lastSucceeded: {
      bar: false,
    },
    pathInState: null,
    fieldOne: null,
    fieldTwo: null,
    fieldThree: {
      subfield: null,
    },
    differentPathInState: null,
    errorOne: null,
    errorTwo: null,
    errorThree: {
      subField: null,
    },
  }
}

Advanced result and error handling

result and error fields in action definitions works exactly the same.

const actionsDefinitions = {
  foo: {
    bar: {
      type: 'better-promise',
      async: actionParam => IWillReturnPromise(actionParam),
      result: {
        fieldOne: { source: 'result.somePathInAction', default: 'valueToBeSetIfNoneFoundInTheAction', initial: 'someInitialValue' },
        fieldTwo: { source: (action, currentValue) => [...currentValue, action.result], initial: 'anotherInitialValue' },
      },
    },
  },
};

Then you will see initial state that looks like this:

{
  foo: {
    pending: {
      bar: false,
    },
    lastSucceeded: {
      bar: false,
    },
    lastFailed: {
      bar: false,
    },
    failed: {
      bar: false,
    },
    succeeded: {
      bar: false,
    },
    lastSucceeded: {
      bar: false,
    },
    fieldOne: 'someInitialValue',
    fieldTwo: 'anotherInitialValue',
  }
}

Setting custom initial values for default fields

const actionsDefinitions = {
  foo: {
    bar: {
      type: 'better-promise',
      async: actionParam => IWillReturnPromise(actionParam),
      initial: {
        'pending.bar': 'initialPending',
        'result.bar': [],
      },
    },
  },
};

Then you will see initial state that looks like this:

{
  foo: {
    pending: {
      bar: 'initialPending',
    },
    lastSucceeded: {
      bar: false,
    },
    lastFailed: {
      bar: false,
    },
    failed: {
      bar: false,
    },
    succeeded: {
      bar: false,
    },
    lastSucceeded: {
      bar: false,
    },
    error: {
      bar: null,
    },
    result: {
      bar: [],
    },
  },
}

Adding custom hooks to action

You can use custom hooks on any action just by passing hooks object as a second argument when dispatching the action. You don't have to change anything in action definition:

this.props.myFancyAction(
  someParams,
  {
    success: ({ result }) => console.log('fancy action succeeded', result)
  }
);
