JavaScript port of the popular [ClojureScript library](https://github.com/Day8/re-frame) for pragmatic, flux-like state management. I highly recommend checking out re-frame's [original documentation](https://github.com/Day8/re-frame/blob/master/docs/INTRO.md) to learn about its philosophy, terminology, and patterns. All design credit goes to the original authors — thank you for the inspiration.

## Why re-frame?

Re-frame helps make state management predictable, testable, and pragmatic. From a high-level, re-frame is flux-like with events and event handlers, which are similar to [redux's actions and reducers](./docs/re-frame-vs-redux.md). Compared to redux, re-frame is more feature complete out of the box, with built-in interceptors, effects, and subscriptions. You'll find that you can be productive without needing to reach for third-party middleware.

## Getting Started

The quickest way to get started is by installing `@re-frame/standalone`, which bundles everything you'll need to build a typical application: a store to manage state, subscriptions to query it, first-class developer tools, and effects such as `http` since the real world is more complicated than TodoMVC.

```sh
yarn add @re-frame/standalone
```

## Usage

```js
import {createStore} from "@re-frame/standalone"

// You can optionally provide an initial value when creating a store.
const store = createStore({count: 0})

// Register event handlers — these are how you'll change the store's state.
store.registerEventDB("increment", db => ({...db, count: db.count + 1}))

// Register subscriptions with the store. Whenver the store's state changes,
// these subscriptions will be automatically recomputed.
store.registerSubscription("count", db => db.count)

// Subscriptions are just values! You can work with them just like any other
// piece of data, and even compose them together.
const count = store.subscribe(["count"])
count.watch((prev, next) => {
  // do something here, maybe?
})

// Dispatch events to the store.
store.dispatch(["increment"])
store.dispatch(["increment"]) // count will be 2 after this event is processed
```

## React Integration

1. Make your store available via React context by using `Provider` from `@re-frame/react` at the top of your application. This will allow you to access subscriptions and dispatch events within the React tree.

> Using Preact? Just use `@re-frame/preact` instead.

```js
import React from "react"
import ReactDOM from "react-dom"
import {createStore} from "@re-frame/standalone"
import {Provider} from "@re-frame/react"

const store = createStore()

const App = () => (
  <Provider store={store}>
    <YourAppGoesHere />
  </Provider>
)

ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById("root"))
```

2. Subscribe to your store from within the tree.

```js
import React from "react"
import {useSubscription} from "@re-frame/react"

const ChatList = () => {
  const chats = useSubscription(["chats"])
  return (
    <ol>
      {chats.map(chat => (
        <li key={chat.id}>{chat.title}</li>
      )}
    </ol>
  )
}
```

3. Dispatch events to your store.

```js
import {h} from "preact"
import {useDispatch} from "@re-frame/preact"

// Dispatch will only fire once in this example
const ChatList = () => {
  useDispatch(["load-chats"])
  // ... more logic here
}

// Dispatch will fire every time `filter` changes
const ChatList = ({filter}) => {
  useDispatch(["load-chats", filter])
  // ... more logic here
}

// useDispatch also returns a "dispatch" function
const ChatList = () => {
  const dispatch = useDispatch() // does not dispatch anything
  const onClick = () => {
    dispatch(["some-click-event"])
  }
  // ... more logic here
}
```
