redux-pouchdb-middleware

A redux middleware to sync data between redux with pouchdb and vice-versa.

Inspired and forked from pouch-redux-middleware

How it works?

• This package is a middleware for Redux.
• It persists the state of chosen reducer of the Redux into PouchDB every time store get updated.
• It reducers will be passed the state from PouchDB on application loads.
• This is a one way data sync (for now). That means, it only persists the data from reducers to PouchDB. Only on app loads, it fetch the data from PouchDB to reducers.

Installation

$ yarn add redux-pouchdb-middleware

or,
$ npm install redux-pouchdb-middleware

Usage

An example React-redux store configuration.

import {
    applyMiddleware,
    compose,
    createStore,
}                                 from "redux"
import { ReduxPouchDBMiddleware } from "redux-pouchdb-middleware"
import PouchDB                    from "pouchdb"
import reducers                   from "./reducers"
import { initialLoad }            from "./reducers/actions"

const initialStore = {}
const middleware = []
const enhancers = []

middleware.push(ReduxPouchDBMiddleware({
    reducer: "todos",
    verbose: false,
    db: new PouchDB("todos-store", { adapter }),
    actions: {
        initialInsert: todos => initialLoad(todos),
    },
    excludeKeys: ["id"]
}))

const composedEnhancers = compose(applyMiddleware(...middleware), ...enhancers)

export default createStore(reducers, initialStore, composedEnhancers)
