fromReducer

Helper function built around rxjs scan operator and subjects, its purpose was to have a zero configuration helper to manage either local or global state in different environments with rxjs.

Given a reducer function and an initial state creates a tuple which values will be:

An observable with the form of Observable<S> (where S denotes the shape of the state) that will emit a value every time is notified of an event, with the result of applying the reducer to the current state and the incoming event.
A function with the form of (event: T) => void to notify the previous observable that an event has occur.
A function that accepts arguments with the form of (events$: Observable<T>, state$?: Observable<S>) => Observable<T> that once applied will produce an observable resulting from merging the application of each function to the event and state streams,, this may be helpful at the moment of intercepting actions.

IMPORTANT: USES RXJS VERSION 7.2

Installation

npm i from-reducer

NOTE: THIS LIBRARY DOESN'T REPLACE REDUX OR NGRX.

This package can be helpful on small projects or places where you are just able to use rxjs, redux and ngrx has been highly proven against the environment and are an amazing solution that i personally use in my projects. So why? You can think it as a rxjs version of react useReducer with middleware

Change of state imperatively:

more info on this pattern: https://reactjs.org/docs/hooks-state.html

interface UsersComponentState {
  loading: boolean;
  users: User[];
  error: string;
}

function usersComponentReducer(
  state: UsersComponentState,
  slice: Partial<UsersComponentState>
): UsersComponentState {
  return { ...state, ...slice };
}

const componentInitialState: UsersComponentState = {
  loading: false,
  users: [],
  error: '',
};

const subscription = new Subscription();

const [state$, setState] = fromReducer(
  usersComponentReducer,
  componentInitialState
);

subscription.add(state$.subscribe(console.log));
// { loading: true, data: [], error: '' }
// { loading: true, data: [...], error: '' } || { loading: false, data: [], error: '...' }

setState({ loading: true });

const requestUsers$ = ajax<User[]>(
  `https://api.github.com/users?per_page=5`
).pipe(
  map(({ response }) => ({ loading: false, users: response, error: '' })),
  catchError((err) => of({ loading: false, error: err })),
  tap(setState)
);

subscription.add(requestUsers$.subscribe());

// Later unsubscribe to state changes and effects
subscription.unsubscribe();
