Goal of this project?

Hi. Just ran across this while searching Github for Redux-related repos.

I see the tagline is "A redux compatible data store with the power of indexing! ". I'm curious - could you expand on what the intent is for this?

Hi @markerikson,

Apologies for a late reply. I only recently had enough time to come back and document a bit about the project.

The basic idea is this: I want to be able to keep data sorted in redux, like a database index. I don't want to resort to calling .sort() on every modification, and I want my state to be primitives only (not immutable library that imposes usage of special object types).

redux-indexers basically just gives you a set of functions that looks like a database (add, update, remove) and produces new state objects that can be queried, in arbitrarily definable orderings, relatively efficiently.

Does that make sense?

IMHO it does make sense. Just one little detail - It would be nice to use dynamic sort params instead of manual creating indexers.
