ngrx-state-switcher

State switcher meta reducer for @ngrx/store (Undo-Redo functionality).

Dependencies

ngrx-state-switcher depends on @ngrx/store and Angular 2.

Usage

npm install ngrx-state-switcher --save

1. Import compose and combineReducers from @ngrx/store and @ngrx/core/compose
2. Import StateSwitcher class from ngrx-state-switcher;
3. Create instance of StateSwitcher class
4. Invoke getStateReducer method of StateSwitcher and get result (as function, let it be stateSwitchReducer).
5. Add combineReducers after stateSwitchReducer and invoke composed function with application reducers as an argument to provideStore.

import {bootstrap} from '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic';
import {TodoApp} from './todo-app';
import {provideStore, combineReducers} from "@ngrx/store";
import {compose} from "@ngrx/core/compose";
import { StateSwitcher } from 'ngrx-state-switcher';
import {todos, visibilityFilter} from './reducers';
 
export function main() {
  const stateSwitcher = new StateSwitcher();
  const stateSwitchReducer: Function = stateSwitcher.getStateReducer();
 
  return bootstrap(TodoApp, [
      //taking all logging defaults
      //todos and visibilityFilter are just sample reducers
      provideStore(
        compose(
            stateSwitchReducer,
            combineReducers
        )({todos, visibilityFilter})
      ),
  ])
  .catch(err => console.error(err));
}
 
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', main);

API

StateSwitcher(actionsUnderPolicy: StateSwitchPolicy[]);

Arguments

• actionsUnderPolicy (array of StateSwitchPolicy): names of actions that will be excluded from StateSwitcher flow.

export enum Policy {
  ALWAYS,
  FIRST_ONLY,
  EXCEPT_FIRST
}

export interface StateSwitchPolicy {
  actionName: string;
  policy: Policy;
}

Apart from that you can use preventDefaultInit method of StateSwitcher class to exclude default ngrx actions from StateSwitcher flow.

Example

import { compose } from '@ngrx/core/compose';
import { combineReducers } from '@ngrx/store';
 
import todosReducer, * as fromTodos from './todos.reducer';
import visibilityFilter from './visibiltyFilter.reducer';
import { TodoFilter } from '../models/filter.model';
import { TodoActions } from '../actions/todo.actions';
import { StateSwitcher, Policy } from './state-switcher';
 
export interface AppState {
  todos: fromTodos.TodosState;
  filter: TodoFilter;
}
 
const stateSwitcher = new StateSwitcher([
  {actionName: TodoActions.GET_TODOS, policy: Policy.ALWAYS},
  {actionName: TodoActions.ADD_TODO, policy: Policy.ALWAYS}
]).preventDefaultInit();
const stateSwitchReducer: Function = stateSwitcher.getStateReducer();
 
export default compose(stateSwitchReducer, storeLogger(), combineReducers)({
  todos: todosReducer,
  filter: visibilityFilter
});
 
export const getTodosState = (state: AppState) => state.todos;
export const getFilterState = (state: AppState) => state.filter;

You can see here working example.
