| # Redux | |
| If you haven't worked with Redux, it's highly recommended (possibly indispensable!) | |
| to read through the (amazing) [official documentation](http://redux.js.org) | |
| and/or watch this [free video tutorial series](https://egghead.io/series/getting-started-with-redux). | |
| ## Usage | |
| See above! As minimal as Redux is, the challenge it addresses - app state | |
| management - is a complex topic that is too involved to properly discuss here. | |
| You can attach a dynamic reducer to a component whether it's a regular component | |
| or a component that will be loaded dynamically. Dynamic means that it will be | |
| injected when the component it attached to is mounted. In your component's `index.js`: | |
| ```JS | |
| import injectReducer from 'utils/injectReducer'; | |
| import reducer from './reducer'; | |
| // ... | |
| export function mapDispatchToProps(dispatch) { | |
| // ... | |
| } | |
| const mapStateToProps = createStructuredSelector({ | |
| // ... | |
| }); | |
| const withConnect = connect(mapStateToProps, mapDispatchToProps); | |
| const withReducer = injectReducer({ key: 'yourcomponent', reducer }); | |
| export default compose( | |
| // Put `withReducer` before `withConnect` | |
| withReducer, | |
| withConnect, | |
| )(YourComponent); | |
| ``` | |
| You don't need to do it by hand, a `container` generator will generate everything | |
| that's necessary. | |
| ### Login Flow Example | |
| To get you started on a login flow, there's a great example [here](https://github.com/tinavanschelt/recycled-login-flow). | |
| **Note:** Based off of react-boilerplate **v3.4** | |
| ## Removing redux | |
| There are a few reasons why we chose to bundle redux with React Boilerplate, the | |
| biggest being that it is widely regarded as the current best Flux implementation | |
| in terms of architecture, support and documentation. | |
| You may feel differently! This is completely OK :) | |
| Below are a few reasons you might want to remove it: | |
| ### I'm just getting started and Flux is hard | |
| You're under no obligation to use Redux or any other Flux library! The complexity | |
| of your application will determine the point at which you need to introduce it. | |
| Here are a couple of great resources for taking a minimal approach: | |
| - [Misconceptions of Tooling in JavaScript](http://javascriptplayground.com/blog/2016/02/the-react-webpack-tooling-problem) | |
| - [Learn Raw React — no JSX, no Flux, no ES6, no Webpack…](http://jamesknelson.com/learn-raw-react-no-jsx-flux-es6-webpack/) | |
| ### It's overkill for my project! | |
| See above. | |
| ### I prefer `(Alt|MobX|SomethingElse)`! | |
| React Boilerplate is a baseline for _your_ app: go for it! | |
| If you feel that we should take a closer look at supporting your preference | |
| out of the box, please let us know. | |
