Document store

Sanity / gradient document store

Example

// If you are interested in everything that happens with document `lol42`
const subscription = documents.byId("lol42").subscribe(event => {
  console.log('Something happened with document lol42!', event)
})

// After a while, when you are no longer interested in updates fom document `lol42`:
subscription.unsubscribe()

How it works

When you add a subscriber to a document the first thing that happens is that the subscriber function is called with a snapshot of the document's current state. This happens as soon as the snapshot is retrieved. If there is a cached version of it on the client, the snapshot is received immediately (synchronously).

From that moment on, you will receive a new event every time something happens to the document, until you unsubscribe again.

• createDocumentStore({serverConnection: ServerConnection}) : DocumentStore

ServerConnection must be an object with the following api:

• byId(id : string) : Observable<DocumentEvent>
• query(query : string) : Observable<QueryResultEvent> (todo, add more)

DocumentStore

Query methods

• byId(id : string) : Observable<DocumentEvent>
• byIds(ids : Array<string>) : Observable<QueryResultEvent>
• query(query : string) : Observable<QueryResultEvent>

Mutation methods

• update(id : string, spec : UpdateSpec) : Observable<OperationEvent>
• create(document : Document) : Observable<OperationEvent>
• replace(documentId : string, document : Document) : Observable<OperationEvent>
• createOrReplace(document : Document) : Observable<OperationEvent>
• delete(documentId : string) : : Observable<OperationEvent>
