To help with props mapping when using apollo with React
npm install apollo-map-propsWe created three Higher Order Component (HOC) that wraps the Apollo Query and Mutation and
Context component
npm install apollo-map-props --savecache-and-network.index.js for changing default fetchPolicy or adding other configs.``javascript`
import { withQuery } from 'apollo-map-props';
withQuery.setConfig({ fetchPolicy: 'network-only' })
A HOC that encapsulate the Query apollo component and explicitly define two functions that will handle the query props and the result mapping to the Wrapped component.
#### Args
* mapProps - takes the incoming props and maps it onto the Query. This is where you'll put on query, variables, skip, fetchPolicy, and anything else like that.View
* mapResultToProps - takes the result and props then maps them to the props the component will expect.
Example
`javascript
import { withQuery } from 'apollo-map-props';
import query from 'apollo/queries/locationsQuery';
const mapProps = ({ locationId }) => ({
query,
variables: { locationId },
skip: !locationId
});
const mapResultToProps = ({ data, loading }, _props) => ({
locations: _.get(data, 'locationsAll'),
isFetchingLocations: loading
});
const View = withQuery(mapProps, mapResultToProps)(ConversationPageView);
`
A HOC that encapsulate the Mutation apollo component and explicitly define two functions that will handle the mutation props and the result mapping to the Wrapped component.
#### Args
* mapProps - takes the incoming props and maps it onto the Mutation. Generally you'll just be passing the mutation, and passing the rest manually to the mutate function, but you can pass anything Mutation takes.View
* mapResultToProps - takes the mutate, result, and props then maps it to the props the component will expect.
Example
`javascript
import { withMutation } from 'apollo-map-props';
import mutation from 'apollo/mutations/markAsReadMutation';
const mapProps = ({ conversationId }) => ({
mutation,
variables: { id: conversationId },
optimisticResponse: {
__typename: 'Mutation',
conversationUpdate: { __typename: 'Conversation', id: conversationId, read: true }
}
});
const mapResultToProps = (mutate, _result, _props) => ({ markAsRead: mutate });
const View = withMutation(mapProps, mapResultToProps)(ConversationView);
`
More complicated example
`javascript
import mutation from 'apollo/mutations/createMessageMutation';
const mapProps = () => ({ mutation });
function mapResultToProps(mutate, { client }, props) {
const createMessage = attrs => {
const optimisticResponse = createMessageOptimisticResponse({
...attrs,
userId: props.currentUser.id,
attachments: []
});
// Update the conversation in the cache so it has the new message
updateConversationCache(client, props, (conversation, items) => {
const message = optimisticResponse.message;
conversation.lastItem = message;
const conversationItems = [...items, message];
return { conversation, conversationItems };
});
mutate({ variables: attrs, optimisticResponse })
.then(props.refetchConversations)
.catch(result => {
// Remove the new message from the cached conversation since it failed
updateConversationCache(client, props, (conversation, items) => {
const message = optimisticResponse.message;
const conversationItems = _.reject(items, { id: message.id });
conversation.lastItem = _.last(conversationItems);
return { conversation, conversationItems };
});
});
};
return { createMessage };
}
const View = withCreateMessageMutation(mapProps, mapResultToProps)(ConversationView);
