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 🙏

Readme

Introduction

universal-data-loader is a library that aims to make data fetching easier to manage in React application. You can easily manage cache, integrate with data persisters(such as localStorage), configure fetching behaviours. It works with redux + redux-saga or the new React Context API

Getting started

Install

$ npm i universal-data-loader --save

Usage Example

step 1: say you have an api call

// an api call is simply a function that returns promise
type ApiCall = (args: any) => Promise<any>;

Let's create a mock api call which returns a random number in 1000ms

const mockApi = () => {
  return new Promise((resolve) => {
    setTimeout(() => resolve(Math.random()), 1000)
  })
}

step 2: use DataLoader component

import { DataLoader } from 'universal-data-loader'
// if you are using redux and redux-saga, import this one:
import { ReduxDataLoader as DataLoader } from 'universal-data-loader'

export const App = () =>
  <DataLoader name="randomNumber" apiCall={mockApi}>
  {
    (loader) => {
      if (loader.loading) {
        return <div>loading...</div>
      }
      if (loader.error) {
        return <div>Error!!!</div>
      }
      return <div>{loader.data ? loader.data : 'No Data!'}</div>
    }
  }
  </DataLoader>

The loader that child function gets as parameter:

// data: the data you get from the api call
// loading: the load status, `true` when api call is running
// error: the Error throw from api call
// lastUpdateTime: the last time that data was loaded from api call
// lastErrorTime: the last time that data fetching throw an error
// load: call this function to manually start to load data
interface Loader<T = any> {
  data: T | null
  loading: boolean
  error: Error | null
  lastUpdateTime?: number
  lastErrorTime?: number
  load: () => void;
}

Step 3: If you are using React >= 16.4.0 with the new Context API

import { DataProvider } from 'universal-data-loader'

ReactDOM.render(
  <DataProvider>
    <App />
  </DataProvider>,
  document.getElementById('root')
)

(Step 3): If you are using redux and redux-saga

import {
  dataLoaderSagas, 
  dataLoaderReducer, 
  DATA_LOADER_NAMESPACE, 
} from 'universal-data-loader'

// combine dataLoaderReducer with your own reducers and give it the name: DATA_LOADER_NAMESPACE
const reducers = combineReducers({
  [DATA_LOADER_NAMESPACE]: dataLoaderReducer,
})

// run sagas with dataLoaderSagas
sagaMiddleware.run(dataLoaderSagas)
