One Store To Rule Them All

Basically will produce a WebSockets/Single Entry API that you can call:

{
  "modelName": ['attributeName', 'attributeName']
}

and then the React will update the children.

React Ideas

GraphQL

Still I can't decide between the GraphQL of facebook:

class MyComp extends React.Component {
  getQuery() {
    return `{
      modelName: {
        attributeName1,
        attributeName2
      }
    }`;
  }
}

Simple JSON Query

var needThis = require('need-this').needThis; // or just null?

class MyComp extends React.Component {
  getQuery() {
    return {
      modelName: {
        attributeName1: needThis,
        attributeName2: needThis,
        attributeName3: needThis
      }
    };
  }
}

One store with Socket.IO

Simple JSON

var store = require('./store');
var needThis = require('need-this').needThis;

class MyComp extends React.Component {
  constructor() {
    this.bindQuery();
  }
  bindQuery() {
    store.iNeed({
      modelName: {
        attributeName1: needThis
      }
    });
  }
}

Modeling

• ID is just a string. you can render it the way you want, but it must be unique for not having problems.
• All the data will be stored in this.data
• Fucking simple implementation. User.find(id) will return a Promise: if there is something on the cache, it will provide it, but add a request to the dispatcher to grab a new copy.
• 20ms between each request. so we'd request one time and then refresh the cache.

OO Classes

class User extends NeedThisModel {
  id() {
    return this.data._id;
  }
}

class Point extends NeedThisModel {
  id() {
    return [this.data.x, this.data.y].join(",")
  }
}

Wrappers

class Post {
  id() {
    return this.slug;
  }
}

module.exports = needThis(Post);

Wrapper in a store

// models/message.js

var store = require('../store'); // the only store

class Message {
  id() {
    return `${this.from}:${this.to}:${this.timestamp}`;
  }
}

module.exports = store.needThis(Message);

// store.js

var NeedThis = require('need-this');
class MyStore extends NeedThis {
  webSocketsURL() {
    return "ws://localhost:8001/";
  }

  apiURL() {
    return "ws://localhost:8001/";
  }
}

module.exports = new MyStore();
