Type safe Vuex module with powerful module features. The basic API idea is brought from Sinai.
- Completely type safe when use with TypeScript without redundancy.
- Provide a smart way to use modules.
- Canonical Vuex-like API interface as possible.
$ npm install vuex-smart-module
All examples are written in TypeScript
You create a module with class syntax:
// store/modules/foo.ts
// Import base classes
import { Getters, Mutations, Actions, Module } from 'vuex-smart-module'
// State
class FooState {
count = 1
}
// Getters
// Extend 'Getters' class with 'FooState' type
class FooGetters extends Getters<FooState> {
// You can declare both getter properties or methods
get double() {
// Getters instance has 'state' property
return this.state.count * 2
}
get triple() {
// When you want to use another getter, there is `getters` property
return this.getters.double + this.state.count
}
}
// Mutations
// Extend 'Mutations' class with 'FooState' type
class FooMutations extends Mutations<FooState> {
increment(payload: number) {
// Mutations instance has 'state' property.
// You update 'this.state' by mutating it.
this.state.count += payload
}
}
// Actions
// Extend 'Actions' class with other module asset types
// Note that you need to specify self action type (FooActions) as a type parameter explicitly
class FooActions extends Actions<
FooState,
FooGetters,
FooMutations,
FooActions
> {
incrementAsync(payload: { amount: number; interval: number }) {
// Actions instance has 'state', 'getters', 'commit' and 'dispatch' properties
return new Promise(resolve => {
setTimeout(() => {
this.commit('increment', payload.amount)
}, payload.interval)
})
}
}
// Create a module with module asset classes
export const foo = new Module({
state: FooState,
getters: FooGetters,
mutations: FooMutations,
actions: FooActions
})
Then, create Vuex store instance by using createStore
function from vuex-smart-module
:
// store/index.ts
import Vue from 'vue'
import * as Vuex from 'vuex'
import { createStore, Module } from 'vuex-smart-module'
import { foo } from './modules/foo'
Vue.use(Vuex)
// The 1st argument is root module.
// Vuex store options should be passed to the 2nd argument.
export const store = createStore(
// Root module
foo,
// Vuex store options
{
strict: process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production'
}
)
There created store is the same instance as Vuex store. Then you can use it as same manner as Vuex.
// main.ts
import Vue from 'vue'
import { store } from './store'
import App from './App.vue'
new Vue({
el: '#app',
store,
render: h => h(App)
})
You can create a nested module as same as Vuex by passing a module object to another module's modules
option.
import { Getters, Module, createStore } from 'vuex-smart-module'
class NestedState {
value = 'hello'
}
class NestedGetters extends Getters<NestedState> {
greeting(name: string): string {
return this.state.value + ', ' + name
}
}
const nested = new Module({
state: NestedState,
getters: NestedGetters
})
const root = new Module({
modules: {
nested
}
})
const store = createStore(root)
console.log(store.state.nested.value) // -> hello
console.log(store.getters['nested/greeting']('John')) // -> hello, John
Nested modules will be namespaced module by default. If you do not want a module to be a namespaced, pass namespaced: false
option to module constructor options.
import { Getters, Module, createStore } from 'vuex-smart-module'
class NestedState {
value = 'hello'
}
class NestedGetters extends Getters<NestedState> {
greeting(name: string): string {
return this.state.value + ', ' + name
}
}
const nested = new Module({
// nested module will not be namespaced
namespaced: false
state: NestedState,
getters: NestedGetters
})
const root = new Module({
modules: {
nested
}
})
const store = createStore(root)
console.log(store.state.nested.value) // -> hello
console.log(store.getters.greeting('John')) // -> hello, John
Getters and actions class can have a special method $init
which will be called after the module is initialized in a store. The $init
hook receives the store instance as the 1st argument. You can pick some external dependencies from it. The following is an example for Nuxt + Axios Module.
import { Store } from 'vuex'
import { Actions } from 'vuex-smart-module'
class FooActions extends Actions {
// Declare dependency type
store: Store<any>
// Called after the module is initialized
$init(store: Store<any>): void {
// Retain store instance for later
this.store = store
}
async fetch(): Promise<void> {
console.log(await this.store.$axios.$get('...'))
}
}
In case of you want to use another module in some module, you can create module context.
import { Store } from 'vuex'
import { Getters, Actions, Module, Context } from 'vuex-smart-module'
// Foo module
class FooState {
value = 'hello'
}
const foo = new Module({
state: FooState
})
// Bar module (using foo module in getters and actions)
class BarGetters extends Getters {
// Declare context type
foo: Context<typeof foo>
// Called after the module is initialized
$init(store: Store<any>): void {
// Create and retain foo module context
this.foo = foo.context(store)
}
get excited(): string {
return this.foo.state.value + '!' // -> hello!
}
}
class BarActions extends Actions {
// Declare context type
foo: Context<typeof foo>
// Called after the module is initialized
$init(store: Store<any>): void {
// Create and retain foo module context
this.foo = foo.context(store)
}
print(): void {
console.log(this.foo.state.value) // -> hello
}
}
const bar = new Module({
getters: BarGetters,
actions: BarActions
})
// Make sure to have all modules in the store
const root = new Module({
modules: {
foo,
bar
}
})
const store = createStore(root)
You can use registerModule
to register a module and unregisterModule
to unregister.
import { registerModule, unregisterModule } from 'vuex-smart-module'
import { store } from './store'
import { foo } from './store/modules/foo'
// register module
registerModule(
store, // store instance
['foo'], // module path. can be string or array of string
'foo/', // namespace string which will be when put into the store
foo, // module instance
// module options as same as vuex registerModule
{
preserveState: true
}
)
// unregister module
unregisterModule(
store, // store instance
foo // module instance which you want to unregister
)
Note that the 3rd argument of registerModule
which is namespace string must match with the actual namespace that the store resolves. If you pass wrong namespace to it, component mappers and context api would not work correctly.
Modules have mapXXX
helpers as methods which are the same interface as Vuex ones. The mapped computed properties and methods are strictly typed. So you will not have some typo or pass wrong payload for them.
import Vue from 'vue'
// Import foo module
import { foo } from '@/store/modules/foo'
export default Vue.extend({
computed: foo.mapGetters(['double']),
methods: foo.mapActions({
incAsync: 'incrementAsync'
}),
created() {
console.log(this.double)
this.incAsync(undefined)
}
})
vuex-smart-module provides inject
helper function which allow you to inject mock dependencies into getters, mutations and actions instance. You can inject any properties for test:
import { inject } from 'vuex-smart-module'
import { FooGetters, FooActions } from '@/store/modules/foo'
it('returns doubled value', () => {
// Inject mock state into getters
const getters = inject(FooGetters, {
state: {
count: 5
}
})
// Test double getter
expect(getters.double).toBe(10)
})
it('increments asynchronously', async () => {
// Inject mock commit method
const commit = jest.fn()
const actions = inject(FooActions, {
commit
})
await actions.incrementAsync({
amount: 3
interval: 1
})
// Check mock commit method is called
expect(commit).toHaveBeenCalledWith('increment', 3)
})
When you want to mock some module assets, you can directly inject mock constructor into module options. For example, you will test the following component which is using counter
module:
<template>
<button @click="increment">Increment</button>
</template>
<script lang="ts">
import Vue from 'vue'
// use counter module
import counter from '@/store/modules/counter'
export default Vue.extend({
methods: counter.mapMutations(['increment'])
})
</script>
In the spec file, mock the mutations
option in the counter
module. The below is Jest example but the essential idea is the same:
import * as Vuex from 'vuex'
import { shallowMount, createLocalVue } from '@vue/test-utils'
import { createStore } from 'vuex-smart-module'
// component which we want to test
import Counter from '@/components/Counter.vue'
// counter module which we want to mock
import counter, { CounterMutations } from '@/store/modules/counter'
const localVue = createLocalVue()
localVue.use(Vuex)
// make sure that you clean mocked object after each test case
const originalMutations = counter.options.mutations
afterEach(() => {
counter.options.mutations = originalMutations
})
it('calls increment mutation', () => {
// create spy
const spy = jest.fn()
// create mock mutation
class MockMutations extends CounterMutations {
// override increment method for mock
increment() {
spy()
}
}
// inject mock
counter.options.mutations = MockMutations
// create mock store
const store = createStore(counter)
// emulate click event
shallowMount(Counter, { store, localVue }).trigger('click')
// check the mock function was called
expect(spy).toHaveBeenCalled()
})
