redux-repatch-creator

Redux enhancer for dispatching reducers

Repatch is just a simplfied Redux, that let you create actions more briefly by dispatching reducers directly.

The redux-repatch library adds this feature to Redux and ships the redux-thunk functionality too.

However if you need to be compatible with the original redux-thunk, then you are looking for this library.

The redux-repatch-creator wraps the reducers into a redux-like action object.

Installation

npm install --save redux-repatch-creator

How to use

redux-repatch-creator provides a store enhancer, that is usable at creating the store. This enhancer ensures that you can use regular actions, original thunk actions and repatch actions together:

import { createStore } from 'redux'
import { repatch, createAction } from 'redux-repatch'
 
const reducer = (state = 0, action) {
  switch (action.type) {
    'SET_TO_VALUE': return action.value
    default: state
  }
}
 
const store = createStore(reducer, repatch)
 
const setToValue = value => ({ type: 'SET_TO_VALUE', value }) // redux action
const increment = value => createAction(state => state + value) // repatch action
 
store.dispatch(setToValue(42)) // 42
store.dispatch(increment(10)) // 52

Use with other enhancers

import { createStore, applyMiddlewares, compose } from 'redux'
import { repatch, createAction } from 'redux-repatch-creator'
 
const store = createStore(
  reducer,
  compose(
    applyMiddlewares(myMiddleware),
    repatch
  )
)

Use without `createAction` function

import { REDUCER } from 'redux-repatch-creator'
 
const increment = value => ({
  type: REDUCER,
  reducer: state => state + value
})

How it works

The repatch enhancer extends your reducer by a special action type (REDUCER), that every repatch action contains. The createAction function creates a { type: REDUCER, reducer } action object. When this action arrives into the reducer, the reducer considers that is a repatch action, and reduces the whole state by the given reducer.

Bundles

<script src="https://unpkg.com/redux-repatch-creator/dist/redux-repatch-creator.js"></script>

or the minified bundle:

<script src="https://unpkg.com/redux-repatch-creator/dist/redux-repatch-creator.min.js"></script>

then

const { repatch, createAction, REDUCER } = ReduxRepatchCreator
