Bounce

The uncomplicated state management library for Yew.

Bounce is inspired by Redux and Recoil.

Rationale

Yew state management solutions that are currently available all have some (or all) of the following limitations:

• Too much boilerplate.

  Users either have to manually control whether to notify subscribers or have to manually define contexts.

• State change notifies all.

  State changes will notify all subscribers.

• Needless clones.

  A clone of the state will be produced for all subscribers whenever there's a change.

Bounce wants to be a state management library that:

• Has minimal boilerplate.

  Changes are automatically detected via PartialEq.

• Only notifies relevant subscribers.

  When a state changes, only hooks that subscribe to that state will be notified.

• Reduces Cloning.

  States are Rc'ed.

Example

For bounce states to function, a <BounceRoot /> must be registered.

#[function_component(App)]
fn app() -> Html {
    html! {
        <BounceRoot>
            {children}
        </BounceRoot>
    }
}

A simple state is called an Atom.

You can derive Atom for any struct that implements PartialEq and Default.

#[derive(PartialEq, Atom)]
struct Username {
    inner: String,
}

impl Default for Username {
    fn default() -> Self {
        Self {
            inner: "Jane Doe".into(),
        }
    }
}

You can then use it with the use_atom hook.

When an Atom is first used, it will be initialised with its Default value.

#[function_component(Setter)]
fn setter() -> Html {
    let username = use_atom::<Username>();

    let on_text_input = {
        let username = username.clone();

        Callback::from(move |e: InputEvent| {
            let input: HtmlInputElement = e.target_unchecked_into();

            username.set(Username { inner: input.value().into() });
        })
    };

    html! {
        <div>
            <input type="text" oninput={on_text_input} value={username.inner.to_string()} />
        </div>
    }
}

If you wish to create a read-only (or set-only) handle, you can use use_atom_value (or use_atom_setter).

#[function_component(Reader)]
fn reader() -> Html {
    let username = use_atom_value::<Username>();

    html! { <div>{"Hello, "}{&username.inner}</div> }
}
