Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Welcome to bistate 👋

npm version Build Status Documentation Maintenance License: MIT Twitter: guyingjie129

Create the next immutable state tree by simply modifying the current tree

bistate is a tiny package that allows you to work with the immutable state in a more mutable and reactive way, inspired by vue 3.0 reactivity API and immer.

🏠 Homepage

Benefits

bistate is like immer but more reactive

  • Immutability with normal JavaScript objects and arrays. No new APIs to learn!
  • Strongly typed, no string based paths selectors etc.
  • Structural sharing out of the box
  • Deep updates are a breeze
  • Boilerplate reduction. Less noise, more concise code.
  • Provide react-hooks API
  • Small size
  • Reactive

Environment Requirement

  • ES2015 Proxy
  • ES2015 Symbol

Can I Use Proxy?

How it works

Every immutable state is wrapped by a proxy, has a scapegoat state by the side.

immutable state + scapegoat state = bistate

  • the immutable target is freezed by proxy
  • scapegoat has the same value as the immutable target
  • mutate(() => { the_mutable_world }), when calling mutate(f), it will
    • switch all operations to scapegoat instead of the immutable target when executing
    • switch back to the immutable target after executed
    • create the next bistate via scapegoat and target, sharing the unchanged parts
    • we get two immutable states now

Install

npm install --save bistate
yarn add bistate

Usage

Counter

import React from 'react'
// import react-hooks api from bistate/react
import { useBistate, useMutate } from 'bistate/react'

export default function Counter() {
  // create state via useBistate
  let state = useBistate({ count: 0 })

  // safely mutate state via useMutate
  let incre = useMutate(() => {
    state.count += 1
  })

  let decre = useMutate(() => {
    state.count -= 1
  })

  return (
    <div>
      <button onClick={incre}>+1</button>
      {state.count}
      <button onClick={decre}>-1</button>
    </div>
  )
}

TodoApp

function Todo({ todo }) {
  let edit = useBistate({ value: false })
  /**
   * bistate text is reactive
   * we will pass the text down to TodoInput without the need of manually update it in Todo
   * */
  let text = useBistate({ value: '' })

  // create a mutable function via useMutate
  let handleEdit = useMutate(() => {
    edit.value = !edit.value
    text.value = todo.content
  })

  let handleEdited = useMutate(() => {
    edit.value = false
    if (text.value === '') {
      // remove the todo from todos via remove function
      remove(todo)
    } else {
      // mutate todo even it is not a local bistate
      todo.content = text.value
    }
  })

  let handleKeyUp = useMutate(event => {
    if (event.key === 'Enter') {
      handleEdited()
    }
  })

  let handleRemove = useMutate(() => {
    remove(todo)
  })

  let handleToggle = useMutate(() => {
    todo.completed = !todo.completed
  })

  return (
    <li>
      <button onClick={handleRemove}>remove</button>
      <button onClick={handleToggle}>{todo.completed ? 'completed' : 'active'}</button>
      {edit.value && <TodoInput text={text} onBlur={handleEdited} onKeyUp={handleKeyUp} />}
      {!edit.value && <span onClick={handleEdit}>{todo.content}</span>}
    </li>
  )
}

function TodoInput({ text, ...props }) {
  let handleChange = useMutate(event => {
    /**
     * we just simply and safely mutate text at one place
     * instead of every parent components need to handle `onChange` event
     */
    text.value = event.target.value
  })
  return <input type="text" {...props} onChange={handleChange} value={text.value} />
}

API

import { createStore, mutate, remove, isBistate, debug, undebug } from 'bistate'
import { 
  useBistate, 
  useMutate, 
  useBireducer, 
  useComputed, 
  useBinding, 
  view, 
  useAttr, 
  useAttrs 
} from 'bistate/react'

useBistate(array | object, bistate?) -> bistate

receive an array or an object, return bistate.

if the second argument is another bistate which has the same shape with the first argument, return the second argument instead.

let Child = (props: { counter?: { count: number } }) => {
  // if props.counter is existed, use props.counter, otherwise use local bistate.
  let state = useBistate({ count: 0 }, props.counter)

  let handleClick = useMutate(() => {
    state.count += 1
  })

  return <div onClick={handleClick}>{state.count}</div>
}

// use local bistate
<Child />
// use parent bistate
<Child counter={state} />

useMutate((...args) => any_value) -> ((...args) => any_value)

receive a function as argument, return the mutable_function

it's free to mutate any bistates in mutable_function, not matter where they came from(they can belong to the parent component)

useBireducer(reducer, initialState) -> [state, dispatch]

receive a reducer and an initial state, return a pair [state, dispatch]

its' free to mutate any bistates in the reducer funciton

import { useBireducer } from 'bistate/react'

const Test = () => {
  let [state, dispatch] = useBireducer(
    (state, action) => {
      if (action.type === 'incre') {
        state.count += 1
      }

      if (action.type === 'decre') {
        state.count -= 1
      }
    },
    { count: 0 }
  )

  let handleIncre = () => {
    dispatch({ type: 'incre' })
  }

  let handleIncre = () => {
    dispatch({ type: 'decre' })
  }

  // render view
}

useComputed(obj, deps) -> obj

Create computed state

let state = useBistate({ first: 'a', last: 'b' })

// use getter/setter
let computed = useComputed({
  get value() {
    return state.first + ' ' + state.last
  },
  set value(name) {
    let [first, last] = name.split(' ')
    state.first = first
    state.last = last
  }
}, [state.first, state.last])

let handleEvent = useMutate(() => {
  console.log(computed.value) // 'a b'
  // update
  computed.value = 'Bill Gates'

  console.log(state.first) // Bill
  console.log(state.last) // Gates
})

useBinding(bistate) -> obj

Create binding state

A binding state is an object has only one filed { value }

let state = useBistate({ text: 'some text' })

let { text } = useBinding(state)

// don't do this
// access field will trigger a react-hooks
// you should always use ECMAScript 6 (ES2015) destructuring to get binding state
let bindingState = useBinding(state)
if (xxx) xxx = bindingState.xxx

let handleChange = () => {
  console.log(text.value) // some text
  console.log(state.text) // some text
  text.value = 'some new text'
  console.log(text.value) // some new text
  console.log(state.text) // some new text
}

It's useful when child component needs binding state, but parent component state is not.

function Input({ text, ...props }) {
  let handleChange = useMutate(event => {
    /**
     * we just simply and safely mutate text at one place
     * instead of every parent components need to handle `onChange` event
     */
    text.value = event.target.value
  })
  return <input type="text" {...props} onChange={handleChange} value={text.value} />
}

function App() {
  let state = useBistate({ 
    fieldA: 'A', 
    fieldB: 'B', 
    fieldC: 'C'
  })
  let { fieldA, fieldB, fieldC } = useBinding(state)

  return <>
    <Input text={fieldA} />
    <Input text={fieldB} />
    <Input text={fieldC} />
  </>
}

view(FC) -> FC

create a two-way data binding function-component


const Counter = view(props => {
  // Counter will not know the count is local or came from the parent
  let count = useAttr('count', { value: 0 })

  let handleClick = useMutate(() => {
    count.value += 1
  })

  return <button onClick={handleClick}>{count.value}</button>
})

// use local bistate
<Counter />

// create a two-way data binding connection with parent bistate
<Count count={parentBistate.count} />

useAttrs(initValue) -> Record<string, bistate>

create a record of bistate, when the value in props[key] is bistate, connect it.

useAttrs must use in view(fc)


const Test = view(() => {
  // Counter will not know the count is local or came from the parent
  let attrs = useAttrs({ count: { value: 0 } })

  let handleClick = useMutate(() => {
    attrs.count.value += 1
  })

  return <button onClick={handleClick}>{attrs.count.value}</button>
})

// use local bistate
<Counter />

// create a two-way data binding connection with parent bistate
<Count count={parentBistate.count} />

useAttr(key, initValue) -> bistate

a shortcut of useAttrs({ [key]: initValue })[key], it's useful when we want to separate attrs

createStore(initialState) -> { subscribe, getState }

create a store with an initial state

store.subscribe(listener) -> unlisten

subscribe to the store, and return an unlisten function

Every time the state has been mutated, a new state will publish to every listener.

store.getState() -> state

get the current state in the store

let store = createStore({ count: 1 })
let state = store.getState()

let unlisten = store.subscribe(nextState => {
  expect(state).toEqual({ count: 1 })
  expect(nextState).toEqual({ count: 2 })
  unlisten()
})

mutate(() => {
  state.count += 1
})

mutate(f) -> value_returned_by_f

immediately execute the function and return the value

it's free to mutate the bistate in mutate function

remove(bistate) -> void

remove the bistate from its parent

isBistate(input) -> boolean

check if input is a bistate or not

debug(bistate) -> void

enable debug mode, break point when bistate is mutating

undebug(bistate) -> void

disable debug mode

Caveats

  • only supports array and object, other data types are not allowed

  • bistate is unidirectional, any object or array appear only once, no circular references existed

let state = useBistate([{ value: 1 }])

mutate(() => {
  state.push(state[0])
  // nextState[0] is equal to state[0]
  // nextState[1] is not equal to state[0], it's a new one
})
  • can not spread object or array as props, it will lose the reactivity connection in it, should pass the reference

// don't do this
<Todo {...todo} />

// do this instead
<Todo todo={todo} />
  • can not edit state or props via react-devtools, the same problem as above

  • useMutate or mutate do not support async function

const Test = () => {
  let state = useBistate({ count: 0 })

  // don't do this
  let handleIncre = useMutate(async () => {
    let n = await fetchData()
    state.count += n
  })

  // do this instead
  let incre = useMutate(n => {
    state.count += n
  })

  let handleIncre = async () => {
    let n = await fetchData()
    incre(n)
  }

  return <div onClick={handleIncre}>test</div>
}
