It has following characteristics. * Optimization for shallow state getter and setter. * The library cares the state object only one-level deep. * TypeScript type definitions * A creator function creates hooks with types inferred. * Redux middleware support to some extent * Some of libraries in Redux ecosystem can be used. ## Install ```bash npm install react-hooks-global-state ``` ## Usage ### setState style ```javascript import React from 'react'; import { createGlobalState } from 'react-hooks-global-state'; const initialState = { count: 0 }; const { useGlobalState } = createGlobalState(initialState); const Counter = () => { const [count, setCount] = useGlobalState('count'); return (

Counter: {count} {/* update state by passing callback function */} {/* update state by passing new value */}

); }; const App = () => ( <> ); ``` ### reducer style ```javascript import React from 'react'; import { createStore } from 'react-hooks-global-state'; const reducer = (state, action) => { switch (action.type) { case 'increment': return { ...state, count: state.count + 1 }; case 'decrement': return { ...state, count: state.count - 1 }; default: return state; } }; const initialState = { count: 0 }; const { dispatch, useStoreState } = createStore(reducer, initialState); const Counter = () => { const value = useStoreState('count'); return (

Counter: {value}

); }; const App = () => ( <> ); ``` ## API ### createGlobalState Create a global state. It returns a set of functions * `useGlobalState`: a custom hook works like React.useState * `getGlobalState`: a function to get a global state by key outside React * `setGlobalState`: a function to set a global state by key outside React * `subscribe`: a function that subscribes to state changes #### Parameters * `initialState` **State** #### Examples ```javascript import { createGlobalState } from 'react-hooks-global-state'; const { useGlobalState } = createGlobalState({ count: 0 }); const Component = () => { const [count, setCount] = useGlobalState('count'); ... }; ``` ### createStore Create a global store. It returns a set of functions * `useStoreState`: a custom hook to read store state by key * `getState`: a function to get store state by key outside React * `dispatch`: a function to dispatch an action to store A store works somewhat similarly to Redux, but not the same. #### Parameters * `reducer` **Reducer\** * `initialState` **State** (optional, default `(reducer as any)(undefined,{type:undefined})`) * `enhancer` **any?** #### Examples ```javascript import { createStore } from 'react-hooks-global-state'; const initialState = { count: 0 }; const reducer = ...; const store = createStore(reducer, initialState); const { useStoreState, dispatch } = store; const Component = () => { const count = useStoreState('count'); ... }; ``` Returns **Store\** ### useGlobalState useGlobalState created by createStore is deprecated. Type: function (stateKey: StateKey): any **Meta** * **deprecated**: useStoreState instead ## Examples The [examples](examples) folder contains working examples.
