Local Component State Management

with @ngrx/component-store

Agenda

  • What is Local Component State that we care about?
  • What is Observable View Model?
  • An overview of Angular DI
  • What is @ngrx/component-store
  • Condition Builder meets Component Store
  • Q/A

Local Component State

Persisted State

Client State

UI State

Anything that contributes to rendering a Component

Observable View Model

We know the states. Now we will look at HOW to deliver these states

Observable View Model

Traditional Pull-based Pattern

export class SomeComponent {
  data: SomeData[];
    
  constructor(private readonly someService: SomeService) {}
    
  ngOnInit() {
    this.someService.getData().subscribe(data => {
      this.data = data;
    })
  }
    
  addNewData(item) {
    this.someService.addItem(item).subscribe(addedItem => {
      this.data = [...this.data, addedItem]; // or this.data.push(addedItem)
    });
  }
    
  refresh() {
    this.someService.getData().subscribe(data => {
      this.data = data;
    })
  }
}
<ul>
  <li *ngFor="let item of data">
    {{item}}
  </li>
</ul>
<button (click)="addData('some new item')">
  Add new item
</button>
<button (click)="refresh()">
  Refresh
</button>

Observable View Model

Traditional Pull-based Pattern with a little bit more state

export class SomeComponent {
  loading = false;
  data: SomeData[] = [];
  
  queryControl = new FormControl('')
    
  constructor(private readonly someService: SomeService) {}
    
  ngOnInit() {
    this.loading = true;
    this.someService.getData().subscribe(data => {
      this.data = data;
      this.loading = false;
    })
    
    this.queryControl.valueChanges.pipe(
      debounceTime(250)
    ).subscribe(query => {
      this.data = this.data.filter(...);
    })
  }
    
  addNewData(item) {
    this.loading = true;
    this.someService.addItem(item).subscribe(addedItem => {
      this.data = [...this.data, addedItem]; // or this.data.push(addedItem)
      this.loading = false;
    });
  }
    
  refresh() {
    this.loading = true;
    this.someService.getData().subscribe(data => {
      this.data = data;
      this.loading = false;
    })
  }
}
<ng-container *ngIf="loading;else done">
  <spinner></spinner>
</ng-container>
<ng-template #done>
  <input type="text" [formControl]="queryControl"/>
  <ul>
    <li *ngFor="let item of data">
      {{item}}
    </li>
  </ul>
  <button (click)="addData('some new item')">
    Add new item
  </button>
  <button (click)="refresh()">
    Refresh
  </button>
</ng-template>

Observable View Model

Introducing Push-based Pattern

export class SomeStateService {

  readonly data$ = this.$data.asObservable();
  
  private readonly $loading = new BehaviorSubject<boolean>(false);
  readonly loading$ = this.$loading.asObservable();
  
  constructor(private readonly someService: SomeService) {}
  
  getData() {
    this.$loading.next(true);
    this.someService.getData().subscribe({
      next: data => {
        this.$data.next(data);
        this.$loading.next(false);
      },
      error: error => {

      error: error => {

        this.$loading.next(false);

This is where ngrx/component-store comes in

  readonly loading$ = this.someStateService.loading$;

  ngOnInit() {
    this.someStateService.getData();

  addData(item) {

Condition builder

With all that knowledge, let's take a look at Condition Builder

Condition builder

Condition builder

ConditionBuilderStore

- Source of truth

- Use "Persisted Data" to populate the State (maxDepth and the tree)

- Contains Updaters and Effects to update the State

Condition builder

ConditionGroupStore

- Accompany ConditionGroupComponent

- Have ConditionBuilderStore injected

- Contains "Client State" and "UI State"

- Use ConditionBuliderStore's state to populate a Group

- Contains Updaters to update isCollapsedState

- Contains Effects that will call ConditionBuilderStore's effects

Condition builder

ConditionNodeStore

- Accompany ConditionNodeComponent

- Have ConditionBuilderStore injected

- Use ConditionBuliderStore's state to populate a ConditionNode

- Contains Effects that will call ConditionBuilderStore's effects

Condition builder

ConditionNodeStore

- Two main data stream that would update a node:

- ComparisonSelect changed

- ExpectedValue changed
