Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Redux Pending Effects

🦋 A redux toolkit that tracks your asynchronous redux actions (effects) and informs about the pending state using the selector function

List of supported libraries that process redux effects:

It's worth mention that redux-pending-effects allows you to code simultaneously with all libraries above.

Problem it solves

Have you ever been in a situation where you need to add a global loader/spinner to any side effect that your application is processing? Perhaps you are using Redux and some third-party library for asynchronous processing, for example, redux-saga / promise middleware? Great, then it should be interesting to you.

Why not handle the pending state manually for each action?

  • It is very unpleasant to create separately for this state and add start and end actions for these actions to each request.
  • This is an open place to make mistakes because it's very easy to forget to add or remove these actions.
  • It needs to be supported and somehow live with it.

Well, redux-pending-effects does this from scratch:

  • tracks your asynchronous code
  • collects them in a bunch
  • efficiently calculates active pending effects
  • provides a selector for information about the current state of application loading
  • available for debugging in redux-devtools
  • independent of a particular asynchronous processing solution. Can be used simultaneously with redux-saga and redux-toolkit
  • replaces redux-thunk in the matters of side effects (not actions chaining) and redux-promise-middleware (essentially uses it out of the box)

Quickstart

Installation

npm install redux-pending-effects

Extend reducers

redux-pending-effects provides its own state for storing active effects (pending promise phase).

import { combineReducers } from 'redux';
import { includePendingReducer } from 'redux-pending-effects';

import { planetReducer as planet } from './planetReducer';
import { universeReducer as universe } from './universeReducer';

const appReducers = {
  planet,
  universe
};
const reducersWithPending = includePendingReducer(appReducers);
export const rootReducer = combineReducers(reducersWithPending);

Configuration

The package provides a single entry point for set up via configurePendingEffects

configurePendingEffects accepts a single configuration object parameter, with the following options:

  • promise: boolean (default false) - enable/disable tracking of asynchronous effects that you pass a promise to the payload. Yes, if the option enabled, you can pass promise to the payload, that is the way redux-promise-middleware does. For details, you can go to read the documentation of redux-promise-middleware about how this works.
  • toolkit: boolean (default false) - enable/disable tracking of asynchronous effects produced by redux-toolkit
  • saga: boolean (default false) - enable/disable tracking of asynchronous effects produced by redux-saga
  • ignoredActionTypes: string[] (default []) - list of action types to not track (do not react on actions with these types)

configurePendingEffects returns an object with two properties:

  1. middlewares - an array of defined redux middlewares
  2. sagaOptions - options for createSagaMiddleware in case you intend to use redux-saga

Example

Let's show an example with all options enabled.

import { configurePendingEffects } from 'redux-pending-effects';
import { configureStore, getDefaultMiddleware } from '@reduxjs/toolkit';
import createSagaMiddleware from '@redux-saga/core';

import { rootReducer as reducer } from './root.reducer';
import { rootSaga } from './root.saga';

const { middlewares, sagaOptions } = configurePendingEffects({
  promise: true,
  toolkit: true,
  saga: true,
  ignoredActionTypes: ['IGNORED_ACTION_1', 'IGNORED_ACTION_2']
});
const sagaMiddleware = createSagaMiddleware(sagaOptions);
const toolkitMiddlewares = getDefaultMiddleware();
const middleware = [...middlewares, ...toolkitMiddlewares, sagaMiddleware];

export const store = configureStore({ reducer, middleware });

sagaMiddleware.run(rootSaga);

Selector

Just a regular usage of redux selectors

import React from 'react';
import { useSelector } from 'react-redux';
import { selectIsPending } from 'redux-pending-effects';

import { YourApplication } from './YourApplication';
import { AppLoader } from './App.loader';

export const App = () => {
  const isPending = useSelector(selectIsPending);

  return isPending ? <AppLoader /> : <YourApplication />;
};

Notes

At the moment, this library completely replaces redux-promise-middleware. In the plans, through the collaboration, expand the API of redux-promise-middleware to reuse their internal API.

Contributing

Contributions are welcome. For significant changes, please open an issue first to discuss what you would like to change.

If you made a PR, make sure to update tests as appropriate and keep the examples consistent.

Contact

Please reach me out if you have any questions or comments.

References

I find these packages useful and similar to this one. So, it's important to mention them here.

The main reason why I didn't choose them: they do one thing, and it's impossible to add something second to them.
