svelte-chainstore

Perform a chain of operations in response to store changes.

Optionally apply changes back to the store.

Optionally reverse the chain when data is read from a storage location.

• busyStore
• chainLink implementations

Example use cases

• Persist data to/from storage (REPL)
• Compress/Decompress data
• Encrypt/Decrypt data
• Redo/Undo
• Apply defaults to missing properties
• Whitelist specific object properties
• Blacklist specific object properties
• Object version migration
• Validate data
• Data sanitation
• Detect if data changed (see dirtyStore)
• Remove properties that match defaults
• Serialize data
• Case folding
• Make sure all changes are immutable (see immer)
• Delay/Debounce write

Installation

npm install -D svelte-chainstore

Quick Example

View REPL

<script>
import { chain } from 'svelte-chainstore';

let changeCounter = 0;
const name = chain((v) => v.toUpperCase())
	.chain((v) => {
		changeCounter++;
		return v;
	})
	.sync()
	.store('JOHN');
</script>

<!-- chain ensures name value is always uppercase and also counts the changes made -->
<input bind:value={$name} />
<br />This value changed {changeCounter} times.
