IndexedDB React hook that mimics useState API supporting optimistic updates
npm install use-dbuse-db> React hook for IndexedDB that mimics useState API
``bash`
npm install use-db
`ts
import useDb from 'use-db'
export default function Todos() {
const [todos, setTodos] = useDb('todos', {
defaultValue: ['buy avocado', 'do 50 push-ups']
})
}
`
Todo list example
`tsx
import React, { useState } from 'react'
import useDb from 'use-db'
export default function Todos() {
const [todos, setTodos] = useDb('todos', {
defaultValue: ['buy avocado']
})
const [query, setQuery] = useState('')
function onClick() {
setQuery('')
setTodos([...todos, query])
}
return (
<>
setQuery(e.target.value)} />
{todos.map(todo => (
`
Removing the data from
IndexedDB and resetting to the default
The removeItem() method will reset the value to its default and will remove the data from the IndexedDB. It returns to the same state as when the hook was initially created.
`tsx
import useDb from 'use-db'
export default function Todos() {
const [todos, setTodos, removeItem] = useDb('todos', {
defaultValue: ['buy avocado']
})
function onClick() {
removeItem()
}
}
`
#### useDb(key: string, options?: StorageStateOptions)
Returns [value, setValue, removeItem] when called. The first two values are the same as useState(). The third value calls IDBObjectStore.delete() and removes the data from the db.
#### key
Type: string
⚠️ Be careful with name conflicts as it is possible to access a property which is already in IndexedDB that was created from another place in the codebase or in an old version of the application.
#### options.defaultValue
Type: any
Default: undefined
The default value. You can think of it as the same as useState(defaultValue).
#### options.optimistic
Type: boolean
Default: true
IndexedDB is async. When optimistic is enabled, calling setState will synchronously/immediately update the state and it will roll back the state if adding the data to the database fails. You can disable by setting optimistic: false.
