lom_atom

State management with error handling and reactive cache done right.

Alternative standalone implementation of eigenmethod mol_atom.

  • About 11kb minified
  • Memory-efficient
  • Simpler, less core concept than mobx
  • Loading status / error handling features

Usage examples:

Install npm install --save lom_atom

Observable property

import {mem} from 'lom_atom'
class Todo {
    @mem title = ''
}
const todo = new Todo()
todo.title = '123'

Observable get/set

import {mem} from 'lom_atom'
class Todo {
    @mem set title(next: string) {
        // test next
    }
    @mem get title(): string {
        return 'default'
    }
}
const todo = new Todo()
todo.title = '123'

Computed values

One decorator for all cases.

class TodoList {
    @mem todos = []
    @mem get unfinishedTodos() {
        return this.todos.filter((todo) => !todo.finished)
    }
}

Like mobx, unfinishedTodos is updated automatically when a todo changed.

Side effects

Lom atom memoized property can interact with upstream (server, etc). Each observable or computed property can be used in 4 cases: get, set, cache set, cache reset. Modifiers helps to produce and control side effects for making network requests.

import {mem, addInfo} from 'lom_atom'
 
class TodoList {
    @mem set todos(todos: Todo | Error) {
        const promise = fetch({
            url: '/todos',
            method: 'POST',
            body: JSON.stringify(todos)
        })
 
        console.log('set handler')
 
        throw new addInfo('Loading /todos...', promise)
    }
 
    @mem get todos(): Todos {
        console.log('get handler')
 
        throw fetch('/todos')
    }
 
    @mem.manual get user(): IUser {
        throw fetch('/user')
    }
 
    set user(next: IUser | Error) {}
 
    @mem todosWithUser() {
        return {todos: this.todos, user: this.user}
    }
 
    @mem todosWithUserParallel() {
        return {todos: mem.async(this.todos), user: mem.async(this.user)}
    }
}
const list = new TodoList()
  • this.todos - get value, if cache is empty - invokes get todos and actualize cache.
  • this.todos = data - set value, if cache empty - pass value to set todos() {} and actualize cache.
  • mem.cache(this.todos = data) - set new value or error directly into cache (push).
  • mem.cache(list.todosWithUser) - deep reset cache for todosWithUser all its dependencies (todos) and notify all dependants about changes.
  • @mem.manual get user() {...} - exclude user from deep reset. mem.reset(list.todosWithUser) resets todos but not user. If you want to reset user, use helper directly on user: mem.cache(list.user)
  • mem.async(this.todos) - initiate parallel loading todos and user (wrap error in proxy, do not throw error if data are fetching).
  • throw new Promise(...) - Load data and handle errors and pending State

Key-value

Basic dictionary support. First argument is an key of any type. See eigenmethod mol_mem.

class TodoList {
    @mem.key todo(id: string, next?: Todo): Todo {
        if (next === undefined) {
            // get mode
            return {}
        }
 
        return next
    }
}
const list = new TodoList()
list.todo('1', {id: 1, title: 'Todo 1'}) // set todo
list.todo('1') // get todo

Actions

Wrapping method in action decorator enables error handling in component event callbacks. Without it, unhandlered exception throws only into console.

State updates are asynchronous, but sometime we need to do transactional synced updates via action helper: @action.sync (Usable for react input, without it cursor position jumps due to asyncronous state updates)

@action.defer runs decorated action on the next tick (Usable for passing valid mounted DOM-node from refs into action in the react).

import {action, mem} from 'lom_atom'
class Some {
    @mem name = ''
    @mem id = ''
 
    @action set(id: string, name: string) {
        this.id = id
        this.name = name
    }
    @action.sync setSynced(id: string, name: string) {
        this.id = id
        this.name = name
    }
}
const some = new Some()
 
// View updates on next tick:
some.set('123', 'test')
 
// View updates in current tick:
some.setSynced('123', 'test2')
