React Tagged State

⚛️ Global atomic state manager

React Tagged State uses signals API as SolidJS and S.js but without automatic deps tracking.

Basic Usage

import {
  createSignal,
  useSelector,
} from 'react-tagged-state';

// create a signal
const counter = createSignal(0);

const Counter = () => {
  // read value
  const count = useSelector(counter);

  return (
    <button
      onClick={() => {
        // update value
        counter((value) => value + 1)
      }}
    >
      {count}
    </button>
  );
};

API Overview

Signal

Signal is a value container. And also is just a function. You can read value by calling signal without arguments and write value by calling signal with next value. Simple.

import { createSignal } from 'react-tagged-state';

// create a signal
const counter = createSignal(0);

// read
const value = counter();

// write with value
counter(10);

// write with function
counter((count) => count + 1);

Event

Event is a "write-only" signal. You can't read value, but you can dispatch next value.

import { createEvent } from 'react-tagged-state';

// create an event
const reset = createEvent();

// dispatch
reset();

React & Hooks

useSelector bind signals with component. This is all what you need to sync signals with yuor components. You can use signals or selectors like you do in redux, of course.

Signal:

import {
  createSignal,
  useSelector,
} from 'react-tagged-state';

const counter = createSignal(0);

const Counter = () => {
  const count = useSelector(counter);

  return (
    <button
      onClick={() =>
        counter((value) => value + 1)
      }
    >
      {count}
    </button>
  );
};

Component will be re-rendered on signal's value change.

Selector:

import {
  createSignal,
  useSelector,
} from 'react-tagged-state';

const items = createSignal<
  Partial<
    Record<string, { id: string; title: string }>
  >
>({ id: { id: '0', title: 'title' } });

const Item = ({ itemId }: { itemId: string }) => {
  const item = useSelector(() => items()[itemId]);

  if (!item) {
    return null;
  }

  return <div>{item.title}</div>;
};

Component will be re-rendered on selected value change.

Signal's Selector:

import {
  createSignal,
  useSelector,
} from 'react-tagged-state';

const items = createSignal<
  Partial<
    Record<string, { id: string; title: string }>
  >
>({ id: { id: '0', title: 'title' } });

const Item = ({ itemId }: { itemId: string }) => {
  const item = useSelector(items, () => items[itemId]);

  if (!item) {
    return null;
  }

  return <div>{item.title}</div>;
};

Component will be re-rendered on selected value change. This variant subscribes only to provided signal's changes. You should prefer this way if selector read value from single signal.

Subscription

Signals and events have on method. You can use this method to subscribe to signals and events outside your components or in useEffect.

import {
  createSignal,
  subscribe,
} from 'react-tagged-state';

const counter = createSignal(0);

const unsubscribe = counter.on(
  (value) => {
    console.log(value);
  },
);

Callback will be called on signal's value change or event's dispatch.
