rescript-recoil

Node.js CI

Zero-cost bindings to Facebook's Recoil library

⚠️ These bindings are still in experimental stages, use with caution

Installation

Run the following command:

$ yarn add recoil rescript-recoil

Then add rescript-recoil to your bsconfig.json's dependencies:

 {
   "bs-dependencies": [
+    "rescript-recoil"
   ]
 }

Usage

Atom

let textState = Recoil.atom({
  key: "textState",
  default: "",
})

Selector

A nice feature the OCaml type-system enables is the ability to differenciate Recoil values between the ones that can only read state with the ones that can write state. This way, you can't use hooks with write capabilities with a read-only value.

With read only capabilities

let textStateSize = Recoil.selector({
  key: "textStateSize",
  get: ({get}) => {
    let textState = get(textState)
    Js.String.length(textState)
  },
})

With write capabilities

let textStateSize = Recoil.selectorWithWrite({
  key: "textStateSize",
  get: ({get}) => {
    let textState = get(textState);
    Js.String.length(textState);
  },
  set: ({set}, newSize) => {
    let currentTextState = get(textState);
    set(textState, currentTextState->Js.String.slice(~from=0, ~to_=newSize));
  }
});

Async

let user = Recoil.asyncSelector({
  key: "user",
  get: ({get}) => {
    fetchUser(get(currentUserId))
  },
})

Hooks

useRecoilState

let (state, setState) = Recoil.useRecoilState(textState);

state // read
setState(textState => newTextState) // write

useRecoilValue

let state = Recoil.useRecoilValue(textState)

state // read

useSetRecoilState

let setState = Recoil.useSetRecoilState(textState)

setState(textState => newTextState) // write

useResetRecoilState

let reset = Recoil.useResetRecoilState(textState)

reset() // write

useRecoilCallback

  • Dependency free (reevaluates the callback at every render): useRecoilCallback(...)
  • Zero-dependency (never reevaluates the callback): useRecoilCallback0(...)
  • One-dependency (reevaluates when dep changes): useRecoilCallback1(..., [|dep|])
  • Multiple-dependencies: useRecoilCallback2(..., (dep1, dep2)) (goes from 2 to 5)
let onClick = Recoil.useRecoilCallback(({snapshot: {getPromise}}, event) => {
  let _ = getPromise(myAtom)
    |> Js.Promise.then_(value => {
      Js.log(value)
      Js.Promise.resolve()
    })
})

<button onClick={onClick}>
  {"Click me"->React.string}
</button>

useRecoilValueLoadable

let loadable = Recoil.useRecoilValueLoadable(textState)

Js.log(loadable->Recoil.Loadable.state)
Js.log(loadable->Recoil.Loadable.getValue)

Examples

The Recoil Basic Tutorial has been made in ReasonReact: check the source!

You can run it using:

$ yarn examples

and going to http://localhost:8000/TodoList.html

Memoization

type t = {
  id: string,
  value: string,
  isCompleted: bool,
}

// For atoms
let todoItemFamily = Recoil.atomFamily({
  key: "todo",
  default: param => {
    id: param,
    value: "",
    isCompleted: false,
  },
})

// For selectors
let todoItemLengthFamily = Recoil.selectorFamily({
  key: "todo",
  // The `Fn` wrapper is needed here so that BuckleScript
  // outputs the correct value
  get: param => Fn(({get}) => {
    get(todoItemFamily(param)).value->Js.String2.length
  }),
})

And use it within a React component:

[@react.component]
let make = (~todoId) => {
  let (todo, setTodo) = Recoil.useRecoilState(todoItemFamily(id))

  // ...
  <>
    {todo.value->React.string}
  </>
}
