vuex-jsdata-plugin

A simple attempt to help using jsdata alongside Vue.js: This plugin syncing Vuex store with js-data After each injection made by js-data some silent mutations are triggered to ensure vuex store is kept in sync with your ressources (and trigger reactivity).

Dependencies

This plugin is developed for

You're welcome to contribute to help compatibility issues.

Usage

With NPM npm install vuex-plugin-jsdata

Then when you setup vuex:

import jsdataPlugin from 'vuex-plugin-jsdata'
import yourJsDataStore from 'xxxx'

const plugins = [
  jsdataPlugin(yourJsDataStore),
  ... // other plugins
]

new Vuex.Store({
  // state,
  // actions,
  // mutations,
  plugins,
})

How does it work ?

Every change in a js-data ressource are made with the DSInject method. The plugin manage the state tree(vuex) under a DS module by listening to the afterInject hook (js-data)

mutation

vuex-plugin-jsdata fire only one silent mutation : REFRESH_DATASTORE

getters

Although all local ressources injected in the jsdata-store can be found in the vuex store under the namespaced module DS, the plugin provide automatic getters for every model.

Ex:

// Register a model in js-data

export const User = store.defineResource({
  name: 'user',
  endpoint: 'users',
})
// in a .vue component
<script>
  import { mapGetters } from 'vuex'

  export default {
    name: 'User',
    props: {
      id: { required: true },
    },
    computed: {
      ...mapGetters(['DSUser']),
      user() {
        return this.DSUser[this.id]
      },
    },
  }
</script>

<template lang="jade">
  div.user
    pre {{ user | json }}
</template>

global helper

This plugin provide a handy way to make a ressource available inside components.

mapRessources

mapRessources([ { nameOfTheGetter: [nameOfTheRessource:string, id_key:string]}, ... ]) mapRessources is a getter factory designed to get a single record which id is computed from $vm[id_key]. Its really useful for getting specific records dynamicly (eg: get user with id picked from router params) example:

// in store - DSUsers: { 1: { name: 'Alex' } }
// component definition
// using the object spread operator
$vm = {
  data() {
    return {
      user_id: 1
    }
  },
  computed: {
    ...mapRessources([
      { user: ['User', 'user_id'] }
      { userFromRoute: ['User', '$route.params.id'] } // with vue-router
    ]),
  }
}
// Log
$vm.user.name -> 'Alex'
$vm.userFromRoute.name -> 'Alex'
