Managing states in the entire application became very complicated and tough as the requirements of websites increased. In a React project, Context API and
useReducer
hook are not sufficient always. To handle such complex states, Redux is one of the most necessary tools in almost every React project. In this blog, I’ll demonstrate how can you use Redux Toolkit and RTK Query in a React Project.
Here is two useful link:
What is Redux
Redux is a predictable state container for JavaScript applications. One major benefit of using Redux is that it allows centralizing the state of JS applications in a single store. This makes it easier to reason about the state of applications and helps to avoid the complexity of managing states across different components of applications.
Configure Store
Firstly, inside the src/app/store.js
file, configure your store like this:
import { configureStore } from "@reduxjs/toolkit";
export const store = configureStore({
reducer: {},
})
After that, you must provide the store to the whole React application by the following-
import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom/client";
import "./index.css";
import App from "./App";
import { Provider } from "react-redux";
import { store } from "./app/store.js"; //Configured Store in store.js file
const root = ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById("root"));
root.render(
<React.StrictMode>
<Provider store={store}> // Provide store in the entire App
<App />
</Provider>
</React.StrictMode>
);
Write your first slice
Now you have to create a slice and write the name of this slice, an initialState and reducers.
import { createSlice } from "@reduxjs/toolkit"
const initialState = {
name: "",
email: "",
role: "",
}
const authSlice = createSlice({
name: 'auth',
initialState,
reducers: {}
})
The reducers will help to change states which can be done anywhere in the application. Besides that don’t forget to export the slice
and reducers
.
reducers: {
signInReducer: (state, { payload }) => {
state.email = payload.email,
state.name = payload.name,
state.role = payload.role
},
signOutReducer: (state) => {
state.email = "",
}
},
export const { signInReducer, signOutReducer } = authSlice.actions
export default authSlice.reducer
Import and provide the slice in the store.
import authSlice from "../features/auth/authSlice";
export const store = configureStore({
reducer: {
auth: authSlice,
}
})
Now, you can import and use the reducers in other files like in src/page/Login.js
file
import React from 'react'
import { signInReducer } from "../../features/auth/authSlice";
import { useDispatch } from "react-redux";
export default function Login() {
const handleSignIn = () => {
dispatch(signInReducer())
}
return (
<div>Sign In Page
<button onClick={handleSignIn}> Sign In </button>
</div>
)
}
With all these, you can use the states in the entire application which you’ve provided in the slice. Here in src/page/Home.js
-
import React from 'react'
import { useSelector } from "react-redux";
export default function Home() {
const auth = useSelector(state => state.auth)
return (
<div>
User Name: {auth.name}
</div>
)
}
Handling Async Function
To handle async functions, you have to use extraReducers
function in the slice and createAsyncThunk
higher-order function. You also can handle pending, fulfilled and rejected cases like the following-
import { createAsyncThunk, createSlice } from "@reduxjs/toolkit"
const initialState = {
name: "",
email: "",
role: "",
isLoading: false,
isError: false,
isSuccess: false,
error: ""
}
export const signUpThunk = createAsyncThunk("auth/signUp",
async ({ email, password }) => {
const data = await thunkFunction(email, password)
return data.user.email
})
const authSlice = createSlice({
name: 'auth',
initialState,
reducers: {
// ... Our Reducers
},
extraReducers: (builder) => {
builder.addCase(signUpThunk.pending, (state) => {
state.isLoading = true
state.isError = false
state.error = ''
}).addCase(signUpThunk.fulfilled, (state, action) => {
state.isLoading = false
state.user.email = action.payload
}).addCase(signUpThunk.rejected, (state, action) => {
state.user.email = ''
state.isError = true
state.isLoading = false
state.error = action.error
})
}
Here is the signUpThunk function will take two parameters the name of the function as string and an HoF function
. This function can be called any other file.
RTK Query
In this section, I’ll show you how can you implement RTK Query.
First, you need to create API using createAPI
function in src/features/api/apiSlice.js
file
import { createApi, fetchBaseQuery } from '@reduxjs/toolkit/query/react'
const URL = "https://demourl.com"
export const apiSlice = createApi({
reducerPath: "api", // Give it a name
baseQuery: fetchBaseQuery({ baseUrl: URL }), // Define Base URL
endpoints: (build) => ({
products: build.query({
query: (data) => ({
url: '/products',
method: 'GET',
body: data
}),
})
})
})
export const { useProductQuery } = authSlice
Before you start using the useProductQuery
hook, you must provide it in the store. Don’t forget to contact the middleware also.
import { configureStore } from "@reduxjs/toolkit";
import { apiSlice } from "../features/api/apiSlice";
import apiSlice from "../features/api/apiSlice";
export const store = configureStore({
reducer: {
auth: authSlice,
[apiSlice.reducerPath]: apiSlice.reducer
},
middleware: (getDefaultMiddleware) =>
getDefaultMiddleware().concat(apiSlice.middleware)
})
Now we can use the useProductQuery
hook anywhere.
import React from 'react'
import { useRegistrationMutation } from "../../features/api/apiSlice";
export default function Products() {
const { data, isError, isFetching, isSuccess,error } = useProductQuery()
return (
<div>Products Page
{data.products.map( product => <h4> {product.name} </h4> )}
</div>
)
}
You can handle the async result by showing a simple toast:
import { Toaster } from "react-hot-toast";
import { Toaster } from "react-hot-toast";
import React, { useEffect, useState } from "react";
import { useRegistrationMutation } from "../../features/api/apiSlice";
export default function Products() {
const { data, isError, isFetching, isSuccess,error } = useProductQuery()
useEffect(() => {
if (isFetching) {
toast.loading("Processing...", {id: 'pending', duration: 2000})
}
if (isSuccess) {
toast.success("Successfully Register your account", {id: 'success'})
}
if (isError) {
toast.error("Failed to Register your account", {id: 'fail'})
}
}, [isFetching, isSuccess, isError, error, data])
return (
<div>Products Page
<Toaster />
{data.products.map( product => <h4> {product.name} </h4> )}
</div>
)
}
