U5-r2-query NPM

u5-r2-query

Support for querying an API (anything async, really), in the context of React/redux.

The query results are kept in a simple cache. This cache could become more sophisticated.

The core API is a higher order component query, which connects a query with a React component. The query consists of a string representing the query text, plus parameters (any object). This should suit most API query requirements.

The cache is refreshed whenever the connected components mounts (on componentWillMount).

How

npm run sample:basic
