@ngix/store

IxJS augmented state management for Angular applications, inspired by Redux and built upon @ngrx.

@ngix/store is an attempt to implement an even more functional approach to @ngrx. This library is not a replacement for @ngrx, but rather a companion library.

Core tenents:

- Play happily and seemlessly with @ngrx.
- Less Action and Reducer boilerplate.
- One agnostic reducer. Anonymous actions.
- Keep all store logic in one place. One file.
- Lively data with optimistic updates.
- Stay small and simple.
- Functions, functions, functions.

Install @ngix/store (and dependencies) from npm:

npm i -S @ngix/store @ngix/lens @reactivex/ix-ts

To import @reactivex/ix-ts like it's the ix module, add the following to the tsconfig.json file:

``json
{
"compilerOptions": {
/ ... /
"paths": {
"ix/": ["../node_modules/@reactivex/ix-ts/"]
}
}
}
`

Note: It's probably safer to just stick with @reactivex/ix-ts despite it's long name.

See the Wiki for detailed documentation.

This is the simple example from @ngrx/store reworked to use @ngix/store.

First, setup of the reducer is omitted since @ngix/store has one agnostic recuder.

Second, very much like the original example, register the state container within your application, use the IxStoreModule.forRoot().

`ts
import { BrowserModule } from "@angular/platform-browser";
import { NgModule } from "@angular/core";

import { IxStoreModule } from "@ngix/store";

import { AppComponent } from "./app.component";

@NgModule({
declarations: [ AppComponent ],
imports: [
BrowserModule,
IxStoreModule.forRoot({ counter: 0 }),
],
bootstrap: [ AppComponent ]
})
export class AppModule {}
`

Finally, inject the IxStore service into your components and services. Use store.view(Lens) to _focus_ on slice(s) of state. Here you see another fundemental difference between @ngrx/store and @ngix/store: instead of your logic being off in a reducer where you send potentially stale state, you compose functions and dispatch them to be lazily evaluated in the IxReducer with the latest state.

`ts
import { Component, ChangeDetectionStrategy } from "@angular/core";
import { Observable } from "rxjs/Observable";

import { IterableX } from "ix/iterable";
import { map } from "ix/iterable/map";

import { IxStore, ixAction, IxAction, ix } from "@ngix/store";
import { lens } from "@ngix/lens";

export interface AppState {
counter: number;
}

const lmap = ix.lift(map);
const INCREMENT = lmap(i => i + 1);
const DECREMENT = lmap(i => i - 1);
const RESET = ix.constant(0);
const cl = lens.lens("counter");
const ca = ixAction(counterLens);

@Component({
selector: "app-root",
template:
Increment

public reset () {
this.store.dispatchIx(ca("RESET", RESET));
}
}
`

Here is the Github repo with the Todo List demo.

It is an Angular CLI app. After npm install, start it with ng serve. This assumes that you have
@angular/cli installed globally.

- Add unit tests with 90+% coverage.
- Test IxStoreModule.forFeature() with lazy loading.
- Describe more @ngix` idiomatic patterns.
