What is it?
redux-dynamic-modules is a library that aims to make Redux Reducers and middleware easy to modular-ize and add/remove dynamically.
Motivation
In large Javascript applications, it is often desired to perform some kind of code-splitting, so that the initial script size is small. However, in Redux, you are required to define your reducers and middleware up-front; there is no good way to dynamically add/remove these constructs at runtime.
redux-dynamic-modules is designed to make dynamically loading these constructs easier. You can define a module, which contains reducers and middleware, and add it to the Redux store at runtime. We also provide a React component DynamicModuleLoader
, which can load/unload modules on mount/unmount.
Modules provide the following benefits:
- Modules can be easily re-used across the application, or between multiple similar applications.
- Components declare the modules needed by them and redux-dynamic-modules ensures that the module is loaded for the component.
- Modules can be added/removed from the store dynamically, ex. when a component mounts or when a user performs an action
Features
- Group together reducers, middleware, and state into a single, re-usable module.
- Add and remove modules from a Redux store at any time.
- Use the included
<DynamicModuleLoader />
component to automatically add a module when a component is rendered - Extensions provide integration with popular libraries, including
redux-saga
andredux-thunk
Example Scenarios
- You don't want to load the code for all your reducers up front. Define a module for some reducers and use
DynamicModuleLoader
and a library like react-loadable to download and add your module at runtime. - You have some common reducers/middleware that need to be re-used in different areas of your application. Define a module and easily include it in those areas.
- You have a mono-repo that contains multiple applications which share similar state. Create a package containing some modules and re-use them across your applications
Install
Run
npm install redux-dynamic-modules
or
yarn add redux-dynamic-modules
Usage
- Create a module with the following format
export function getUsersModule(): IModule<IUserState> {
return {
id: "users",
reducerMap: {
users: usersReducer,
},
// Actions to fire when this module is added/removed
// initialActions: [],
// finalActions: []
};
}
- Create a
ModuleStore
import { createStore, IModuleStore } from "redux-dynamic-modules";
import { getUsersModule } from "./usersModule";
const store: IModuleStore<IState> = createStore({
initialState: { /** initial state */ },
enhancers: [ /** enhancers to include */ ],
extensions: [/** extensions to include i.e. getSagaExtension(), getThunkExtension() */],
},
getUsersModule()
/* ...any additional modules */
);
- Use like a standard Redux store
- Use the
DynamicModuleLoader
React component to add/remove modules when components mount/unmount
<DynamicModuleLoader modules={[getHelloWorldModule()]}>
<div>Hello World!!</div>
</DynamicModuleLoader>
Extensions
- redux-saga - redux-dynamic-modules-saga
- redux-thunk - redux-dynamic-modules-thunk
