redux-state-machine

Implementation javascript-state-machine to Redux as Reducer.

Redux Action is Event for FSM. It changing FSM state.status and remember in state.event.

This library is intended to describe meta information of discrete state process. For example steps of fetching resources which has state:

INIT -> LOADING -> SUCCESS or FAILURE

Default state.status is INIT.

Features:

• Parallel and Nested states
• Recognizable API (a-lia javascript-state-machine)
• Encapsulate Payload
• Easy state check (by the key)

Install

npm install redux-state-machine --save

Usage

Describe reducer (ES6):

import reducerBuilder from 'redux-state-machine';

const reducer = reducerBuilder({
  events: [
    { name: 'LOAD', from: 'INIT', to: 'LOADING' },
    { name: 'SUCCESS', from: 'LOADING', to: 'LOADING_SUCCESS' },
    { name: 'FAILURE', from: 'LOADING', to: 'LOADING_FAILURE' }
  ]
});

Describe reducer (ES5):

var reducerBuilder = require('redux-state-machine');
var reducer = reducerBuilder.default({ /* ... */ });

Initial reducer state is

  {
    status: 'INIT', // Current status (state name)
    action: null,   // Last action (event for FSM)
    error: null,    // If last transition firth error
    INIT: true      // Helper-field for quick check status
  }

After dispatch action LOAD from INIT state, reducer state is

  {
    status: 'LOADING',
    action: { type: 'LOAD' /* ... */ },
    error: null,
    LOADING: true
  }

After dispatch action SUCCESS from LOADING state, reducer state is

  {
    status: 'LOADING_SUCCESS',
    action: { type: 'SUCCESS' /* ... */ },
    error: null,
    LOADING_SUCCESS: true
  }

After dispatch action FAILURE from LOADING state, reducer state is

  {
    status: 'LOADING_FAILURE',
    action: { type: 'FAILURE' /* ... */ },
    error: null,
    LOADING_FAILURE: true
  }

After dispatch action LOAD from LOADING_SUCCESS state (error case) reducer state is

  {
    status: 'LOADING_SUCCESS',
    action: { type: 'LOAD' /* ... */ },
    error: true,
    LOADING_SUCCESS: true
  }
