react-state-patterns
Tiny utility package for easily creating reusable implementations of React state provider patterns.
react: >= 16.8.0
)
Why?
react-state-patterns
is incredibly simple, small, and lightweight — making it a great choice for applications that wish to keep their footprint small and do not want a complex state management solution.
This library is also great for those that wish to utilize React Hooks for reusable state but do not want to couple their presentational components directly with state (this makes unit testing components much easier
react-state-patterns
also makes state management modular — increasing code clarity and making organization of state a breeze
Getting Started
Install
npm install react-state-patterns --save
Creating State Patterns
Directly From Hook
import useProviders, { hookSchema } from 'react-state-patterns';
// Create the state provider patterns
const Counter = useProviders(props => {
const [count, setCount] = useState(props.initialValue || 0);
const handlers = {
incrementBy: value => setCount(count + value),
decrementBy: value => setCount(count - value)
};
// hookSchema(...)
// => { counter: { state: { count: 0 }, handlers: { incrementBy: (v) => {...}, decrementBy: (v) => {...} } } }
return hookSchema({ count: count }, handlers, "counter");
});
// Counter = { useHook, withState, State, Provider, Consumer }
useStateHook
util
Using
import useProviders, { useStateHook } from 'react-state-patterns';
// Create the state patterns
const Counter = useProviders(
useStateHook(
(props) => ({ count: props.initialValue || 0 }),
{
incrementBy: state => value => ({ ...state, count: state.count + value }),
decrementBy: state => value => ({ ...state, count: state.count - value })
},
"counter"
)
);
// Counter = { useHook, withState, State, Provider, Consumer }
Use the patterns
Decorator Pattern
const Displayer = ({ counter: { state, handlers }}) => (
<React.Fragment>
<div>{state.count}</div>
<button onClick={() => handlers.decrementBy(1)}>Decrement</button>
<button onClick={() => handlers.incrementBy(1)}>Increment</button>
</React.Fragment>
);
const StatefulDisplayer = Counter.withState(Displayer);
const rootElement = document.getElementById("root");
ReactDOM.render(<StatefulDisplayer initialValue={5} />, rootElement);
Render Prop Pattern
const Displayer = (props) => (
<Counter.State initialValue={5}>
{({ counter: { state, handlers } }) => (
<React.Fragment>
<div>{state.count}</div>
<button onClick={() => handlers.decrementBy(1)}>Decrement</button>
<button onClick={() => handlers.incrementBy(1)}>Increment</button>
</React.Fragment>
)}
</Counter.State>
);
Context Provider/Consumer Pattern
const Displayer = (props) => (
<Counter.Provider initialValue={5}>
<Counter.Consumer>
{({ counter: { state, handlers } }) => (
<React.Fragment>
<div>{state.count}</div>
<button onClick={() => handlers.decrementBy(1)}>Decrement</button>
<button onClick={() => handlers.incrementBy(1)}>Increment</button>
</React.Fragment>
)}
</Counter.Consumer>
</Counter.Provider>
);
Custom Hook Pattern
const Displayer = (props) => {
const { counter: { state, handlers } } = Counter.useHook({ initialValue: 5 });
return (
<React.Fragment>
<div>{state.count}</div>
<button onClick={() => handlers.decrementBy(1)}>Decrement</button>
<button onClick={() => handlers.incrementBy(1)}>Increment</button>
</React.Fragment>
);
};
Code Style Guides
Prettier is run as a pre-commit hook to automatically
modify staged .js
and .jsx
files to adhere to base code style rules defined in the .prettierrc
.
Eslint is also used as an in-editor linter, so be sure to install an appropriate Eslint Plugin for your editor of choice. Prettier rules are setup to take precedence and override any conflicting eslint rules.
