Object Graph Engine
Why an engine, you ask? 'Cause I needed the 'e' in Ogre to make sense. :)
Built with React in mind, Ogre is a simple graph manager that leverages React's own immutability helpers to update objects without changing the surrounding topography. Allows for efficient object equality checks.
shouldComponentUpdate( nextProps, _ ) {
return this.props.item !== nextProps.item
}Example:
var data= new Ogre({
idList: [],
itemMap: {}
})
data.onChange( function( changedKeys ){ /* Now you know */ } )
var item= { id:'ID1', name:'The First' }
// Both of these mutations will only result in a single
// 'onChange' event on the nextTick.
data.set('itemMap.ID1', item)
data.push('idList', item.id )
data.get('itemMap.ID1') === item // => trueSince the onChange event is accumulated, by default, you could have multiple stores (in a synchronous Flux pattern) all modify a global application state graph (ogre), and only trigger a single render call.
Options:
| name | description | default |
|---|---|---|
maxHistory |
Number of old states to remember | 1 |
batchChanges |
Batch synchronous mutations into single 'change' event | true |
strict |
Throw error when mutating non-existing key paths | true |
- Flesh out API docs.
- More examples.
- Better test coverage.
