Best practices

and recommendations

Here you will find some recommendations in order to not miss use this library

  • Actions should be used ONLY for manipulating state. They should not cntain business logic or call other services

  • Try to avoid absolute paths in @InjectStore decorator because

    • it might lead to wrong architecture of your project

    • paths might become long

    • paths can start to overlap

  • Direct store usage should not be common, rather exceptional case. e.g: you might have some shared data like userData stored in the root of you state and you want to access it from everywhere. But for this case I recommend to have some authService and with method getUserData rather than keep repeating same code (DRY principle)

getUserData() {
    let userData;
    
    Store.store
        .select<UserData>(['userData'])
        .pipe(take(1))
        .select(state => userData = state);
        
    return userData;
}
  • User Smart and dumb components

  • User @InjectStore decorator ONLY on smart components

  • Entire application with smart components should reflect structure of state as close as possible.
