unistore

A tiny 350b centralized state container with component bindings for Preact & React.

This fork of unistore adds an intersection type for injected props in both the preact and react typings.

It is published under @metonym/unistore.

• Small footprint complements Preact nicely (unistore + unistore/preact is ~650b)
• Familiar names and ideas from Redux-like libraries
• Useful data selectors to extract properties from state
• Portable actions can be moved into a common place and imported
• Functional actions are just reducers
• NEW: seamlessly run Unistore in a worker via Stockroom

Install

This project uses node and npm. Go check them out if you don't have them locally installed.

npm install --save unistore

Then with a module bundler like webpack or rollup, use as you would anything else:

// The store:
import createStore from 'unistore';

// Preact integration
import { Provider, connect } from 'unistore/preact';

// React integration
import { Provider, connect } from 'unistore/react';

Alternatively, you can import the "full" build for each, which includes both createStore and the integration for your library of choice:

import { createStore, Provider, connect } from 'unistore/full/preact';

The UMD build is also available on unpkg:

<!-- just unistore(): -->
<script src="https://unpkg.com/unistore/dist/unistore.umd.js"></script>
<!-- for preact -->
<script src="https://unpkg.com/unistore/full/preact.umd.js"></script>
<!-- for react -->
<script src="https://unpkg.com/unistore/full/react.umd.js"></script>

You can find the library on window.unistore.

Usage

import createStore from 'unistore';
import { Provider, connect } from 'unistore/preact';

let store = createStore({ count: 0 });

// If actions is a function, it gets passed the store:
let actions = store => ({
  // Actions can just return a state update:
  increment(state) {
    return { count: state.count + 1 };
  },

  // The above example as an Arrow Function:
  increment2: ({ count }) => ({ count: count + 1 }),

  //Actions receive current state as first parameter and any other params next
  //check this function as <button onClick={incrementAndLog}>
  incrementAndLog: ({ count }, event) => {
    console.info(event);
    return { count: count + 1 };
  },

  // Async actions can be pure async/promise functions:
  async getStuff(state) {
    let res = await fetch('/foo.json');
    return { stuff: await res.json() };
  },

  // ... or just actions that call store.setState() later:
  incrementAsync(state) {
    setTimeout(() => {
      store.setState({ count: state.count + 1 });
    }, 100);
  }
});

const App = connect(
  'count',
  actions
)(({ count, increment }) => (
  <div>
    <p>Count: {count}</p>
    <button onClick={increment}>Increment</button>
  </div>
));

export default () => (
  <Provider store={store}>
    <App />
  </Provider>
);

Debug

Make sure to have Redux devtools extension previously installed.

import createStore from 'unistore';
import devtools from 'unistore/devtools';

let initialState = { count: 0 };
let store =
  process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production'
    ? createStore(initialState)
    : devtools(createStore(initialState));

// ...

API

createStore

Creates a new store, which is a tiny evented state container.

Parameters

• state Object Optional initial state (optional, default {})

Examples

let store = createStore();
store.subscribe( state => console.log(state) );
store.setState({ a: 'b' });   // logs { a: 'b' }
store.setState({ c: 'd' });   // logs { a: 'b', c: 'd' }

Returns store

store

An observable state container, returned from createStore

action

Create a bound copy of the given action function. The bound returned function invokes action() and persists the result back to the store. If the return value of action is a Promise, the resolved value will be used as state.

Parameters

• action Function An action of the form action(state, ...args) -> stateUpdate

Returns Function boundAction()

setState

Apply a partial state object to the current state, invoking registered listeners.

Parameters

• update Object An object with properties to be merged into state
• overwrite Boolean If true, update will replace state instead of being merged into it (optional, default false)

subscribe

Register a listener function to be called whenever state is changed. Returns an unsubscribe() function.

Parameters

• listener Function A function to call when state changes. Gets passed the new state.

Returns Function unsubscribe()

unsubscribe

Remove a previously-registered listener function.

Parameters

• listener Function The callback previously passed to subscribe() that should be removed.

getState

Retrieve the current state object.

Returns Object state

connect

Wire a component up to the store. Passes state as props, re-renders on change.

Parameters

• mapStateToProps (Function | Array | String) A function mapping of store state to prop values, or an array/CSV of properties to map.
• actions (Function | Object)? Action functions (pure state mappings), or a factory returning them. Every action function gets current state as the first parameter and any other params next

Examples

const Foo = connect('foo,bar')( ({ foo, bar }) => <div /> )

const actions = { someAction }
const Foo = connect('foo,bar', actions)( ({ foo, bar, someAction }) => <div /> )

Returns Component ConnectedComponent

Provider

Extends Component

Provider exposes a store (passed as props.store) into context.

Generally, an entire application is wrapped in a single <Provider> at the root.

Parameters

• props Object
  • props.store Store A {Store} instance to expose via context.
