Cycle Effects

npm install --save @abradley2/cycle-effects

Purpose

When using Cycle, especially on the server, there's often need for a large amount of complex drivers dealing with a large amount of side effects.

This library assumes you are using xstream and the default @cycle/run. If you are interested in using this without another Reactive Programming library that Cycle supports, please open an issue

API

As with most other Cycle drivers, the API surface area is just a source and a sink.

The types are a good guidance on what is expected. See the Example Usage section for a full, in-depth guide.

declare module '@abradley2/cycle-effects' {
  export type EffectSource<A> = (tag: string | symbol) => xstream<{
    value: A;
    error: Error;
  }>

  export type EffectSink<A> = xstream<{
    run: (args: any) => Promise<A>;
    args: any;
    tag: string | symbol;
  }>
}

But isn't this running effects where we should be pure??

Actually, no. Similar to Redux Loop we are only returning a side-effect causing function to be executed by the runtime. This is why we must supply an args property to the effect configuration in order to pass anything to a function that creates side effects.

Example Usage

The following application will first run an effect to get a random number, and then run an effect that sets a timeout with a duration based on that random number. Finally, that effects results in the name "Tony" being sent through the result sink.

const xs = require('xstream').default
const createEffectsDriver = require('@abradley2/cycle-effects')

function application({effects}) {
	const randomEffect = Symbol('randomEffect')
	const timeoutEffect = Symbol('timeoutEffect')

	return {
		effects: xs.merge(
			xs.of(
				{
					run: () => new Promise(resolve => resolve(Math.random())),
					tag: randomEffect
				}
			),
			effects.select(randomEffect)
				.map(randomNum => {
					return {
						run: (name, timeoutDuration) => new Promise(resolve =>
							setTimeout(() => resolve(name), timeoutDuration)
						),
						tag: timeoutEffect,
						args: ['Tony', randomNum * 1000]
					}
				})
		),
		result: effects.select(timeoutEffect)
			.filter(result => !result.error)
			.map(result => result.value)
	}
}

const {sinks, run} = setup(application, { effects: createEffectsDriver() })

sinks.result
  .take(1)
  .subscribe({
    next: function (value) {
      console.log(value) // "Tony"
    }
  })
