UStor
Reactive Store Library
This library provides a powerful reactivity system for creating stateful objects using signals, integrated seamlessly into JavaScript objects and arrays. This library does not depend on any specific reactive library and can be used by any UI framework to manage and react to changes in state effectively.

Installation
To use this library, you can install it using npm or yarn:
npm install ustor
yarn add ustor
This library can be integrated with solid-js
, @preact/signals-core
, ulive
, usignal
, oby
, sinuous
any other libarary you can think of for managing reactive signals.
Setup
First, import the store
function and the api
object. You need to initialize api
with your preferred signal implementation.
import { store, api } from "./src";
import { createSignal } from "solid-js";
// import { signal } from '@preact/signals-core'; // 'usignal' 'ulive'
// Solid.js setup
api.signal = createSignal;
api.get = (v) => v[0]();
api.set = (signal, v) => signal[1](v);
api.is = (v) =>
(Array.isArray(v) &&
typeof v[0] === "function" &&
typeof v[1] === "function") ||
v[0]?.name?.includes("readSignal");
// @preact/signals-core, usignal or ulive setup
api.signal = signal;
api.get = (v) => v.value;
api.set = (signal, v) => (signal.value = v);
api.is = (v) => v?.peek;
API
store(values, proto)
The store
function creates a stateful object that automatically converts properties into reactive signals.
- values: The initial values for the store, which can be objects, arrays, or primitives.
- proto: Optional prototype to set for the new store object.
The function returns a reactive store object that maintains the structure of the original values
while adding reactivity.
is(value)
The is
function checks if a given value is a reactive store instance.
- value: The value to check.
Returns true
if the value is a reactive store, otherwise false
.
api.is
The api.is function checks if a given value is a signal.
- value: The value to check.
Returns true if the value is a signal, otherwise false.
api.signal
The api.signal
function is used to create a reactive signal.
- value: The initial value for the signal.
Returns a signal that can be used to create reactive state within the store.
api.get
The api.get
function retrieves the current value of a signal.
- signal: The signal whose value you want to retrieve.
Returns the current value of the signal.
api.set
The api.set
function updates the value of a signal.
- signal: The signal whose value you want to update.
- value: The new value to set.
Updates the signal with the provided value.
Usage
Basic Usage
const s = store({ a: 1, b: 2 });
console.log(s.a); // 1
s.a = 5;
console.log(s.a); // 5
You can use the store
function to create a reactive state object. Assigning a new value to s.a
will automatically trigger updates wherever s.a
is used.
Advanced Usage
const s = store({
a: 2,
b: 3,
get sum() {
return this.a + this.b;
},
});
console.log(s.sum); // 5
s.a = 5;
console.log(s.sum); // 8
Here, you can define getters that automatically compute derived state values, and these getters will update whenever the underlying signals change.
Deeply Nested Structures
The store
function can also handle deeply nested objects, converting nested properties into reactive signals:
const s = store({ nested: { deep: { value: 10 } } });
const deepValue = s.nested.deep.value * 2;
console.log(deepValue); // 20
s.nested.deep.value = 15;
console.log(s.nested.deep.value) * 2; // 30
Arrays and Objects
This library can handle arrays and objects seamlessly, automatically wrapping array elements with reactivity:
const s = store({ list: [1, 2, 3] });
const sum = s.list.reduce((acc, item) => acc + item, 0);
console.log(sum); // 6
s.list = [1, 5, 3];
console.log(s.list.reduce((acc, item) => acc + item, 0)); // 9
Reactivity and Effects
The signal value trigger with effects to track dependencies and automatically re-run whenever dependencies change:
const s = store({ a: 1 });
let effectValue = 0;
effect(() => {
effectValue = s.a * 2;
});
console.log(effectValue); // 2
s.a = 4;
console.log(effectValue); // 8
Integration with Solid.js, Preact Signals or any
This library can be used with Solid.js, Preact Signals, or any other UI framework to provide reactive signals.
To use Solid.js:
import { createSignal } from "solid-js";
api.signal = createSignal;
api.get = (v) => v?.[0]();
api.set = (signal, v) => signal?.[1](v);
api.is = (v) =>
(Array.isArray(v) &&
typeof v[0] === "function" &&
typeof v[1] === "function") ||
v?.[0]?.name?.includes("readSignal");
To use Preact Signals, usignal, ulive, etc:
import { signal } from "@preact/signals-core";
api.signal = signal;
api.get = (v) => v?.value;
api.set = (signal, v) => (signal.value = v);
api.is = (v) => v?.peek;
To use any signal library
import ... from "...";
api.signal = ...;
api.get = ...;
api.set = (signal, value) => ...;
api.is = (v) => ...;
const state = store({
count: 0
});
The library provides a unified API to work with different reactive systems, allowing you to switch between Solid.js, Preact Signals, or any other UI framework easily.
