🎒 React Pouch

🌟 The simplest state management library you'll ever use 🌟

🎒 Your expandable state pouch - Small, organized, and grows with your needs

🤔 Why React Pouch?

Traditional state management:

// 😰 Complex setup with providers, actions, reducers...
<Provider store={store}>
  <App />
</Provider>

React Pouch:

// 😎 Just create and use - that's it!
const count = pouch(0);
count.set(5); // Done! 🎉

No more:

• ❌ Provider wrappers
• ❌ Action creators
• ❌ Reducers
• ❌ Complex dispatch logic
• ❌ Context configuration
• ❌ Boilerplate code

Just pure simplicity:

• ✅ Create store in one line
• ✅ Use anywhere in your app
• ✅ TypeScript built-in
• ✅ React hooks ready
• ✅ Extensible with plugins

📦 Installation

# 🚀 Install with your favorite package manager
npm install react-pouch
# or
yarn add react-pouch
# or
pnpm add react-pouch

🚀 Start coding in 30 seconds:

🚀 Quick Start

🗂️ Step 1: Create Your Store

Create a dedicated file for your state management:

src/stores/counterStore.ts

import { pouch } from "react-pouch";

// 🎯 Create the pouch - your state container
export const counterPouch = pouch(0);

// ⚡ Export actions for easy reuse
export const increment = (by = 1) => counterPouch.set((prev) => prev + by);
export const decrement = (by = 1) => counterPouch.set((prev) => prev - by);
export const reset = () => counterPouch.set(0);
export const setCount = (value: number) => counterPouch.set(value);

⚛️ Step 2: Use in React Components

Import and use your store in any component:

src/components/Counter.tsx

import { counterPouch, increment, decrement, reset, setCount } from '../stores/counterStore';

function Counter() {
  const count = counterPouch.use(); // ✨ Auto-updates component on state change

  return (
    <div>
      <h2>🔢 Counter: {count}</h2>
      <div>
        <button onClick={increment}>➕</button>
        <button onClick={decrement}>➖</button>
        <button onClick={reset}>🔄 Reset</button>
        <button onClick={() => setCount(10)}>🔟 Set to 10</button>
      </div>
    </div>
  );
}

export default Counter;

🎯 Step 3: Use Anywhere in Your App

src/App.tsx

import { counterPouch, increment } from './stores/counterStore';
import Counter from './components/Counter';

function App() {
  // 📖 Access state directly - no providers needed!
  console.log('Current count:', counterPouch.get());
  
  // 🚀 Trigger actions from anywhere
  const handleGlobalIncrement = () => increment(5);

  return (
    <div>
      <h1>🎒 React Pouch Demo</h1>
      <Counter />
      <button onClick={handleGlobalIncrement}>
        🚀 Global +5
      </button>
    </div>
  );
}

export default App;

👂 Optional: Subscribe to Changes

src/utils/logger.ts

import { counterPouch } from '../stores/counterStore';

// 👂 Subscribe to changes from anywhere - automatic cleanup included
const unsubscribe = counterPouch.subscribe(() => {
  console.log(`🔔 Counter changed to ${counterPouch.get()}`);
});

// 🧽 Cleanup when needed (optional - React handles this automatically)
// unsubscribe();

🎯 Pro Tip: Custom Hooks for Better Organization

Create reusable hooks in your store file:

src/stores/counterStore.ts (updated)

import { pouch } from "react-pouch";

export const counterPouch = pouch(0);

// Actions
export const increment = (by = 1) => counterPouch.set((prev) => prev + by);
export const decrement = (by = 1) => counterPouch.set((prev) => prev - by);
export const reset = () => counterPouch.set(0);
export const setCount = (value: number) => counterPouch.set(value);

// 🎯 Custom hook for complete counter functionality
export function useCounter() {
  const count = counterPouch.use();
  
  return {
    count,
    increment,
    decrement,
    reset,
    setCount,
  };
}

src/components/CounterWithHook.tsx

import { useCounter } from '../stores/counterStore';

function CounterWithHook() {
  const { count, increment, decrement, reset } = useCounter();

  return (
    <div>
      <h2>🔢 Counter: {count}</h2>
      <div>
        <button onClick={increment}>➕</button>
        <button onClick={decrement}>➖</button>
        <button onClick={reset}>🔄 Reset</button>
      </div>
    </div>
  );
}

🔮 TypeScript IntelliSense for Plugin Methods

Want to see plugin methods like undo(), redo(), computed() in your IDE? Here are two ways to get perfect TypeScript IntelliSense:

✨ Option 1: Use as const (Recommended)

// ✅ Add `as const` to get plugin methods in IntelliSense
export const counter = pouch(0, [history(5)] as const);

// Now you get all these methods with perfect TypeScript support:
counter.undo();     // ✅ Available from history plugin
counter.redo();     // ✅ Available from history plugin  
counter.canUndo();  // ✅ Available from history plugin
counter.canRedo();  // ✅ Available from history plugin

🚀 Option 2: Use withPlugins Helper

import { withPlugins, history, computed } from 'react-pouch';

// ✅ Automatic TypeScript inference - no `as const` needed!
export const counter = withPlugins(0, [history(5)]);
export const calculator = withPlugins(10, [
  history(3),
  computed((x: number) => x * 2)
]);

// Perfect IntelliSense for all plugin methods:
counter.undo();           // From history
calculator.computed();    // From computed

🎯 Multiple Plugins Example

export const formStore = pouch({
  name: '', 
  email: '', 
  age: 0 
}, [
  history(10),
  persist('user-form'),
  computed((data) => data.name.length + data.email.length)
] as const);

// All these methods are now available with TypeScript IntelliSense:
formStore.undo();        // From history plugin
formStore.redo();        // From history plugin
formStore.computed();    // From computed plugin
// Plus all the standard methods: get(), set(), subscribe(), use()

🎯 Core API - Stupidly Simple

pouch(initialValue, plugins?)

Creates a new pouch instance with optional plugins.

// 🎯 Basic pouch - just works!
const myPouch = pouch(initialValue);

// 💫 With superpowers (plugins)
const enhancedPouch = pouch(initialValue, [persist(), validate(), history()]);

🔧 Pouch Methods - Only What You Need

• 📖 get() - Get current value
• ✏️ set(value | updater) - Update value (supports functions!)
• 👂 subscribe(callback) - Subscribe to changes (returns unsubscribe function)
• ⚛️ use() - React hook for component integration

🎉 That's it! No dispatch, no actions, no reducers. Just get, set, and subscribe.

📖 Pouch Usage Guide

🎯 Basic Pouch Operations (Without Plugins)

💫 At its core, React Pouch provides a clean, minimal API for state management. You can use it effectively without any plugins for straightforward state management needs.

🏗️ Creating and Using Basic Pouches

import { pouch } from "react-pouch";

// App state pouch with TypeScript support
interface AppState {
  counter: number;
  message: string;
  isLoading: boolean;
}

const appPouch = pouch<AppState>({
  counter: 0,
  message: "Hello World",
  isLoading: false,
});

// Individual pouches for different concerns
const userPouch = pouch({ name: "John", age: 30 });
const todosPouch = pouch<Todo[]>([]);
const configPouch = pouch({ theme: "dark", language: "en" });

🔧 Core Pouch Methods

📖 get() - Reading Values

const currentState = appPouch.get();
const currentUser = userPouch.get();
console.log("Current app state:", currentState);

✏️ set() - Updating Values

// Direct value assignment
appPouch.set({ counter: 5, message: "Updated!", isLoading: true });
userPouch.set({ name: "Jane", age: 25 });

// Functional updates (recommended for objects/arrays)
appPouch.set((prev) => ({ ...prev, counter: prev.counter + 1 }));
userPouch.set((prev) => ({ ...prev, age: prev.age + 1 }));
todosPouch.set((prev) => [...prev, { id: Date.now(), text: "New task" }]);

👂 subscribe() - Listening to Changes

// Subscribe to all changes
const unsubscribe = appPouch.subscribe(() => {
  console.log("App state changed:", appPouch.get());
});

// Multiple subscribers
const unsubscribe1 = userPouch.subscribe(() => {
  console.log("User updated:", userPouch.get());
});

const unsubscribe2 = userPouch.subscribe(() => {
  // Update UI or perform side effects
  updateUserProfile(userPouch.get());
});

// Don't forget to unsubscribe when done
unsubscribe();
unsubscribe1();
unsubscribe2();

⚛️ use() - React Integration

function UserProfile() {
  const user = userPouch.use();
  const appState = appPouch.use();

  if (appState.isLoading) return <div>Loading...</div>;

  return (
    <div>
      <h1>{user.name}</h1>
      <p>Age: {user.age}</p>
      <p>Message: {appState.message}</p>
      <button
        onClick={() =>
          userPouch.set((prev) => ({ ...prev, age: prev.age + 1 }))
        }
      >
        Increment Age
      </button>
    </div>
  );
}

🎨 Advanced Store Patterns (Without Plugins)

🧮 Computed Values Pattern

const cartPouch = pouch([]);
const pricePouch = pouch(0);

// Manual computed values
cartPouch.subscribe((items) => {
  const total = items.reduce((sum, item) => sum + item.price, 0);
  pricePouch.set(total);
});

// Usage
cartPouch.set([
  { id: 1, name: "Book", price: 15 },
  { id: 2, name: "Pen", price: 2 },
]);
console.log(pricePouch.get()); // 17

🤝 Multiple Store Coordination

const authPouch = pouch(null);
const permissionsPouch = pouch([]);

// Coordinate multiple stores
authPouch.subscribe((user) => {
  if (user) {
    // Load permissions when user logs in
    fetchUserPermissions(user.id).then((permissions) => {
      permissionsPouch.set(permissions);
    });
  } else {
    // Clear permissions when user logs out
    permissionsPouch.set([]);
  }
});

🏭 Custom Store Factory

function createListPouch<T>(initialItems: T[] = []) {
  const pouch = pouch(initialItems);

  return {
    ...pouch,
    add: (item: T) => pouch.set((prev) => [...prev, item]),
    remove: (index: number) =>
      pouch.set((prev) => prev.filter((_, i) => i !== index)),
    update: (index: number, item: T) =>
      pouch.set((prev) =>
        prev.map((existing, i) => (i === index ? item : existing))
      ),
    clear: () => pouch.set([]),
    length: () => pouch.get().length,
  };
}

// Usage
const todoPouch = createListPouch([]);
todoPouch.add({ id: 1, text: "Learn React Pouch", completed: false });
todoPouch.update(0, { id: 1, text: "Learn React Pouch", completed: true });

🔌 Pouch with Plugins - Enhanced Functionality

🚀 Plugins extend the pouch's capabilities without changing its core API. They provide additional features like persistence, validation, logging, and more.

🏗️ Plugin Architecture Benefits

1. 🧩 Composability: Mix and match plugins for custom functionality
2. 📊 Separation of Concerns: Keep core logic separate from cross-cutting concerns
3. 🔄 Reusability: Use the same plugins across different pouches
4. 🔧 Maintainability: Add/remove features without changing core code

🔄 Plugin Execution Order

Plugins execute in the order they're provided, with each plugin potentially transforming the result of the previous one:

const myPouch = pouch(initialValue, [
  plugin1, // Executes first
  plugin2, // Receives output from plugin1
  plugin3, // Receives output from plugin2
]);

🔄 Plugin Lifecycle

Each plugin can hook into three phases:

1. 🎆 initialize: Transform the initial value when the pouch is created
2. 🔧 setup: Add methods/properties to the pouch after creation
3. 🔄 onSet: React to or transform values on every update

💡 Sample Use Cases

🛒 Use Case 1: Shopping Cart Management

A complete shopping cart implementation showcasing both basic store usage and plugin enhancement.

🎯 Without Plugins (Basic Implementation)

import { pouch } from "react-pouch";

interface CartItem {
  id: string;
  name: string;
  price: number;
  quantity: number;
}

interface CartState {
  items: CartItem[];
  total: number;
  itemCount: number;
}

// Basic cart pouch
const cartPouch = pouch<CartState>({
  items: [],
  total: 0,
  itemCount: 0,
});

// Helper functions
const calculateTotal = (items: CartItem[]) =>
  items.reduce((sum, item) => sum + item.price * item.quantity, 0);

const calculateItemCount = (items: CartItem[]) =>
  items.reduce((sum, item) => sum + item.quantity, 0);

// Cart operations
const addToCart = (product: Omit<CartItem, "quantity">) => {
  cartPouch.set((prev) => {
    const existingItem = prev.items.find((item) => item.id === product.id);
    let newItems;

    if (existingItem) {
      newItems = prev.items.map((item) =>
        item.id === product.id ? { ...item, quantity: item.quantity + 1 } : item
      );
    } else {
      newItems = [...prev.items, { ...product, quantity: 1 }];
    }

    return {
      items: newItems,
      total: calculateTotal(newItems),
      itemCount: calculateItemCount(newItems),
    };
  });
};

const removeFromCart = (productId: string) => {
  cartPouch.set((prev) => {
    const newItems = prev.items.filter((item) => item.id !== productId);
    return {
      items: newItems,
      total: calculateTotal(newItems),
      itemCount: calculateItemCount(newItems),
    };
  });
};

// React components
function CartIcon() {
  const cart = cartPouch.use();

  return (
    <div className="cart-icon">
      🛒 {cart.itemCount} items (${cart.total.toFixed(2)})
    </div>
  );
}

function ProductList() {
  const products = [
    { id: "1", name: "T-Shirt", price: 25 },
    { id: "2", name: "Jeans", price: 60 },
    { id: "3", name: "Shoes", price: 80 },
  ];

  return (
    <div>
      {products.map((product) => (
        <div key={product.id}>
          <h3>{product.name}</h3>
          <p>${product.price}</p>
          <button onClick={() => addToCart(product)}>Add to Cart</button>
        </div>
      ))}
    </div>
  );
}

🚀 With Plugins (Enhanced Implementation)

import { pouch, persist, validate, history, logger } from "react-pouch";

// Enhanced cart with plugins
const enhancedCartPouch = pouch<CartState>(
  {
    items: [],
    total: 0,
    itemCount: 0,
  },
  [
    // Persist cart to localStorage
    persist("shopping-cart"),

    // Validate cart state
    validate((cart) => {
      if (cart.total < 0) {
        return { isValid: false, error: "Cart total cannot be negative" };
      }
      if (cart.items.some((item) => item.quantity <= 0)) {
        return { isValid: false, error: "Item quantities must be positive" };
      }
      return { isValid: true };
    }),

    // Enable undo/redo for cart operations
    history(10),

    // Debug logging
    logger("ShoppingCart", { collapsed: true }),
  ]
);

// Enhanced cart operations with error handling
const enhancedAddToCart = (product: Omit<CartItem, "quantity">) => {
  try {
    enhancedCartPouch.set((prev) => {
      const existingItem = prev.items.find((item) => item.id === product.id);
      let newItems;

      if (existingItem) {
        newItems = prev.items.map((item) =>
          item.id === product.id
            ? { ...item, quantity: item.quantity + 1 }
            : item
        );
      } else {
        newItems = [...prev.items, { ...product, quantity: 1 }];
      }

      return {
        items: newItems,
        total: calculateTotal(newItems),
        itemCount: calculateItemCount(newItems),
      };
    });
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Failed to add item to cart:", error.message);
  }
};

// Enhanced React components
function EnhancedCart() {
  const cart = enhancedCartPouch.use();

  return (
    <div className="cart">
      <h2>Shopping Cart</h2>
      {cart.items.map((item) => (
        <div key={item.id} className="cart-item">
          <span>{item.name}</span>
          <span>Qty: {item.quantity}</span>
          <span>${(item.price * item.quantity).toFixed(2)}</span>
          <button onClick={() => removeFromCart(item.id)}>Remove</button>
        </div>
      ))}
      <div className="cart-total">
        <strong>Total: ${cart.total.toFixed(2)}</strong>
      </div>
      <div className="cart-actions">
        <button onClick={() => enhancedCartPouch.undo()}>
          Undo Last Action
        </button>
        <button onClick={() => enhancedCartPouch.redo()}>Redo</button>
      </div>
    </div>
  );
}

📝 Use Case 2: Real-time Form with Auto-save

A complex form implementation demonstrating validation, persistence, and real-time synchronization.

🎯 Without Plugins

import { pouch } from "react-pouch";

interface FormData {
  personalInfo: {
    firstName: string;
    lastName: string;
    email: string;
    phone: string;
  };
  preferences: {
    newsletter: boolean;
    notifications: boolean;
    theme: "light" | "dark";
  };
  errors: Record<string, string>;
}

const formPouch = pouch<FormData>({
  personalInfo: {
    firstName: "",
    lastName: "",
    email: "",
    phone: "",
  },
  preferences: {
    newsletter: false,
    notifications: true,
    theme: "light",
  },
  errors: {},
});

// Manual validation
const validateForm = (data: FormData) => {
  const errors: Record<string, string> = {};

  if (!data.personalInfo.firstName) {
    errors.firstName = "First name is required";
  }

  if (!data.personalInfo.email) {
    errors.email = "Email is required";
  } else if (!/^[^\s@]+@[^\s@]+\.[^\s@]+$/.test(data.personalInfo.email)) {
    errors.email = "Invalid email format";
  }

  return errors;
};

// Manual save to localStorage
const saveForm = (data: FormData) => {
  localStorage.setItem("form-data", JSON.stringify(data));
};

// Manual load from localStorage
const loadForm = () => {
  const saved = localStorage.getItem("form-data");
  if (saved) {
    try {
      const data = JSON.parse(saved);
      formStore.set(data);
    } catch (error) {
      console.error("Failed to load form data:", error);
    }
  }
};

// Subscribe to changes for auto-save
formPouch.subscribe((data) => {
  const errors = validateForm(data);
  formPouch.set((prev) => ({ ...prev, errors }));
  saveForm(data);
});

// Load form on app start
loadForm();

Basic pouch too simple? Add superpowers with plugins:

// 🎯 Basic pouch
const simple = pouch(0);

// 🚀 Supercharged pouch with persistence, validation, and history
const enhanced = pouch(0, [
  persist("my-counter"), // 💾 Auto-save to localStorage
  validate((val) => val >= 0), // ✓ Ensure positive numbers
  history(10), // ⏪ Undo/redo support
  logger("Counter"), // 📝 Debug logging
]);

// 🎉 Now you have:
enhanced.undo(); // ⏪ Undo last change
enhanced.redo(); // ⏩ Redo change
// 💾 Data persists across page reloads
// ✓ Invalid values are rejected
// 📝 All changes are logged

💫 Built-in Plugins - Choose Your Superpowers

💾 persist - Data Persistence

Automatically saves and loads store data from browser storage.

import { store, persist } from "react-pouch";

// 💾 Basic usage with localStorage
const userStore = store({ name: "", email: "" }, [persist("user-data")]);

// 💿 With sessionStorage
const sessionStore = store({}, [
  persist("session-key", {
    storage: "sessionStorage",
  }),
]);

// 🛠️ Custom serialization
const customStore = store(new Map(), [
  persist("custom-data", {
    serialize: (data) => JSON.stringify(Array.from(data.entries())),
    deserialize: (str) => new Map(JSON.parse(str)),
  }),
]);

📱 rnPersist - React Native Persistence

Automatically saves and loads store data using React Native AsyncStorage.

import { store, rnPersist } from "react-pouch";
import AsyncStorage from "@react-native-async-storage/async-storage";

// 📱 Basic usage (auto-detects AsyncStorage)
const userStore = store({ name: "", email: "" }, [rnPersist("user-data")]);

// 🛠️ With custom AsyncStorage instance
const customStore = store({}, [
  rnPersist("session-key", {
    asyncStorage: AsyncStorage,
  }),
]);

// 📜 Custom serialization for complex types
const mapStore = store(new Map(), [
  rnPersist("map-data", {
    serialize: (data) => JSON.stringify(Array.from(data.entries())),
    deserialize: (str) => new Map(JSON.parse(str)),
  }),
]);

// 📋 Storage management
userStore.clearStorage(); // 🧽 Clear persisted data
console.log(userStore.getStorageInfo()); // 📊 Get storage info

✓ validate - Input Validation

Validates store values before updates using custom validation functions.

import { store, validate } from "react-pouch";

const emailStore = store("", [
  validate((email) => ({
    isValid: /^[^\s@]+@[^\s@]+\.[^\s@]+$/.test(email),
    error: "Invalid email format",
  })),
]);

// This will throw an error
try {
  emailStore.set("invalid-email");
} catch (error) {
  console.error(error.message); // "Invalid email format"
}

📝 logger - Debug Logging

Logs all store changes to console for debugging.

import { store, logger } from "react-pouch";

const debugStore = store({ count: 0 }, [
  logger("MyStore", {
    collapsed: true,
    timestamp: true,
  }),
]);

debugStore.set({ count: 1 });
// Console output:
// [12:34:56] MyStore
//   Previous: { count: 0 }
//   Current: { count: 1 }

🧮 computed - Computed Values

Adds computed values that automatically update when store changes.

import { store, computed } from "react-pouch";

const userStore = store({ firstName: "John", lastName: "Doe" }, [
  computed((user) => `${user.firstName} ${user.lastName}`),
]);

console.log(userStore.computed()); // "John Doe"

userStore.set({ firstName: "Jane", lastName: "Smith" });
console.log(userStore.computed()); // "Jane Smith"

🔄 sync - API Synchronization

Synchronizes store with backend API endpoints.

import { store, sync } from "react-pouch";

const todosStore = store(
  [],
  [
    sync("https://api.example.com/todos", {
      debounce: 1000,
      onError: (error) => console.error("Sync failed:", error),
      headers: {
        Authorization: "Bearer token",
      },
    }),
  ]
);

// Loads initial data from API on setup
// Auto-syncs changes with debouncing

⏪ history - Undo/Redo

Adds undo/redo functionality to stores.

import { store, history } from "react-pouch";

const textStore = store("", [
  history(20), // Keep last 20 changes
]);

textStore.set("Hello");
textStore.set("Hello World");

console.log(textStore.get()); // "Hello World"

textStore.undo();
console.log(textStore.get()); // "Hello"

textStore.redo();
console.log(textStore.get()); // "Hello World"

// Check availability
console.log(textStore.canUndo()); // true
console.log(textStore.canRedo()); // false

🔐 encrypt - Data Encryption

Encrypts sensitive data before storing (demo implementation).

import { store, encrypt } from "react-pouch";

const secretStore = store("sensitive-data", [encrypt("my-secret-key")]);

// Data is automatically encrypted/decrypted
// Note: This is a demo implementation, use proper encryption in production

🕰️ throttle - Rate Limiting

Limits the rate of store updates using throttling.

import { store, throttle } from "react-pouch";

const searchStore = store("", [
  throttle(500), // Maximum one update per 500ms
]);

// Rapid updates will be throttled
searchStore.set("a");
searchStore.set("ab");
searchStore.set("abc"); // Only this will be processed

⏱️ debounce - Debounced Updates

Delays store updates until after specified time of inactivity.

import { store, debounce } from "react-pouch";

const inputStore = store("", [
  debounce(300), // Wait 300ms after last update
]);

// Rapid updates will be debounced
inputStore.set("a");
inputStore.set("ab");
inputStore.set("abc"); // Only this will be processed after 300ms

📜 schema - Type Structure Validation

Enforces type structure on store values using schema definitions.

import { store, schema } from "react-pouch";

const userSchema = {
  name: "string",
  age: "number",
  email: "string",
  hobbies: "array",
  address: {
    street: "string",
    city: "string",
    zipCode: "string",
  },
};

const userStore = store({}, [schema(userSchema)]);

// Valid update
userStore.set({
  name: "John",
  age: 30,
  email: "[email protected]",
  hobbies: ["reading", "coding"],
  address: {
    street: "123 Main St",
    city: "New York",
    zipCode: "10001",
  },
});

// Invalid update will throw error
try {
  userStore.set({ name: "John", age: "thirty" }); // age should be number
} catch (error) {
  console.error(error.message); // "Invalid type for age: expected number, got string"
}

📊 analytics - Event Tracking

Tracks store changes in analytics services (Google Analytics).

import { store, analytics } from "react-pouch";

const pageStore = store({ path: "/", title: "Home" }, [
  analytics("page_view", {
    trackInitial: true,
    includeTimestamp: true,
    sanitize: (data) => ({ path: data.path }), // Remove sensitive data
  }),
]);

// Automatically tracks changes to Google Analytics
pageStore.set({ path: "/about", title: "About" });

🔄 middleware - Value Transformation

Transforms values before they're set in the store using middleware functions.

import { store, middleware } from "react-pouch";

const trimMiddleware = (value, oldValue) => {
  if (typeof value === "string") {
    return value.trim();
  }
  return value;
};

const upperCaseMiddleware = (value, oldValue) => {
  if (typeof value === "string") {
    return value.toUpperCase();
  }
  return value;
};

const textStore = store("", [middleware(trimMiddleware, upperCaseMiddleware)]);

textStore.set("  hello world  ");
console.log(textStore.get()); // "HELLO WORLD"

💪 Powerful Plugin Combinations

📝 Form with Validation, Persistence, and History

src/stores/formStore.ts

import { store, validate, persist, history, logger } from "react-pouch";

// Create form store with multiple plugins
export const formStore = store({ name: "", email: "", age: 0 }, [
  validate((data) => {
    if (!data.name) return { isValid: false, error: "Name is required" };
    if (!data.email.includes("@"))
      return { isValid: false, error: "Invalid email" };
    if (data.age < 0) return { isValid: false, error: "Age must be positive" };
    return { isValid: true };
  }),
  persist("user-form"),      // Auto-save to localStorage
  history(10),              // Undo/redo support
  logger("FormStore"),      // Debug logging
]);

// Export actions
export const updateName = (name: string) => 
  formStore.set(prev => ({ ...prev, name }));
export const updateEmail = (email: string) => 
  formStore.set(prev => ({ ...prev, email }));
export const updateAge = (age: number) => 
  formStore.set(prev => ({ ...prev, age }));
export const resetForm = () => 
  formStore.set({ name: "", email: "", age: 0 });

src/components/UserForm.tsx

import { formStore, updateName, updateEmail, updateAge, resetForm } from '../stores/formStore';

function UserForm() {
  const form = formStore.use();

  return (
    <form>
      <input 
        value={form.name} 
        onChange={(e) => updateName(e.target.value)}
        placeholder="Name" 
      />
      <input 
        value={form.email} 
        onChange={(e) => updateEmail(e.target.value)}
        placeholder="Email" 
      />
      <input 
        type="number"
        value={form.age} 
        onChange={(e) => updateAge(Number(e.target.value))}
        placeholder="Age" 
      />
      <button type="button" onClick={resetForm}>Reset</button>
      <button type="button" onClick={formStore.undo}>↶ Undo</button>
      <button type="button" onClick={formStore.redo}>↷ Redo</button>
    </form>
  );
}

💪 Real-time Sync with Debouncing and Encryption

import { store, sync, debounce, encrypt, logger } from "react-pouch";

const secureNotesStore = store("", [
  encrypt("my-secret-key"),
  debounce(1000),
  sync("https://api.example.com/notes", {
    debounce: 2000,
    headers: { Authorization: "Bearer token" },
  }),
  logger("SecureNotes"),
]);

// Encrypted, debounced, auto-synced notes with debug logging

🔍 Advanced Search with Throttling and Analytics

import { store, throttle, analytics, computed, logger } from "react-pouch";

const searchStore = store({ query: "", results: [] }, [
  throttle(300),
  computed((state) => state.results.length),
  analytics("search", {
    sanitize: (data) => ({ queryLength: data.query.length }),
  }),
  logger("SearchStore"),
]);

// Search with rate limiting, result counting, analytics, and debugging
console.log(searchStore.computed()); // Access result count

🛠️ Creating Custom Plugins

Plugins are objects that implement the PluginHooks<T> interface with three optional methods:

interface PluginHooks<T> {
  initialize?(value: T): T;
  setup?(store: Store<T>): void;
  onSet?(newValue: T, oldValue: T): T | void;
}

🎯 Basic Plugin Example

import { Plugin } from "react-pouch";

function timestamp<T>(): Plugin<T> {
  return {
    setup(store) {
      store.lastUpdated = Date.now();
    },
    onSet(newValue, oldValue) {
      store.lastUpdated = Date.now();
      return newValue;
    },
  };
}

// Usage
const timestampStore = store(0, [timestamp()]);
console.log(timestampStore.lastUpdated); // Current timestamp

🚀 Advanced Plugin Example

import { Plugin } from "react-pouch";

function localCache<T>(key: string, ttl: number = 5000): Plugin<T> {
  return {
    initialize(value) {
      // Load from cache if available and not expired
      const cached = localStorage.getItem(key);
      if (cached) {
        const { data, timestamp } = JSON.parse(cached);
        if (Date.now() - timestamp < ttl) {
          return data;
        }
      }
      return value;
    },

    setup(store) {
      // Add cache management methods
      store.clearCache = () => {
        localStorage.removeItem(key);
      };

      store.getCacheAge = () => {
        const cached = localStorage.getItem(key);
        if (cached) {
          const { timestamp } = JSON.parse(cached);
          return Date.now() - timestamp;
        }
        return null;
      };
    },

    onSet(newValue, oldValue) {
      // Cache the new value with timestamp
      const cacheData = {
        data: newValue,
        timestamp: Date.now(),
      };
      localStorage.setItem(key, JSON.stringify(cacheData));
      return newValue;
    },
  };
}

// Usage
const cachedStore = store([], [localCache("my-data", 10000)]);
console.log(cachedStore.getCacheAge()); // Cache age in milliseconds
cachedStore.clearCache(); // Clear cache manually

💯 Plugin Best Practices

1. 🔄 Always return the value from onSet if you're not transforming it
2. 🛡️ Handle errors gracefully - don't break the store
3. 📝 Use TypeScript for better developer experience
4. 🌐 Check for browser APIs when using DOM/storage features
5. 🔧 Provide configuration options for flexibility
6. ✨ Add methods to store in the setup hook for extended functionality

📝 TypeScript Support

The library is written in TypeScript and provides full type safety:

interface User {
  id: number;
  name: string;
  email: string;
}

const userStore = store<User>({
  id: 1,
  name: "John",
  email: "[email protected]",
});

// TypeScript will enforce the User interface
userStore.set({ id: 2, name: "Jane", email: "[email protected]" });

⚛️ React Integration

🎣 Using with React Hooks

import { useStore } from "react-pouch";

function UserProfile() {
  const user = useStore(userStore);

  return (
    <div>
      <h1>{user.name}</h1>
      <p>{user.email}</p>
    </div>
  );
}

🔗 Custom Hook Pattern

function useCounter() {
  const counterStore = store(0, [persist("counter"), history(10)]);

  const count = counterStore.use();

  return {
    count,
    increment: () => counterStore.set(count + 1),
    decrement: () => counterStore.set(count - 1),
    undo: counterStore.undo,
    redo: counterStore.redo,
    canUndo: counterStore.canUndo(),
    canRedo: counterStore.canRedo(),
  };
}
