addValuesListener
The addValuesListener
method registers a listener function with the Store
that will be called whenever the Values
change.
addValuesListener(
listener: ValuesListener<Store>,
mutator?: boolean,
): string
Type | Description | |
---|---|---|
listener | ValuesListener<Store> | The function that will be called whenever data in the |
mutator? | boolean | An optional boolean that indicates that the listener mutates |
returns | string | A unique |
The provided listener is a ValuesListener
function, and will be called with a reference to the Store
and a GetValueChange
function in case you need to inspect any changes that occurred.
Use the optional mutator parameter to indicate that there is code in the listener that will mutate Store
data. If set to false
(or omitted), such mutations will be silently ignored. All relevant mutator listeners (with this flag set to true
) are called before any non-mutator listeners (since the latter may become relevant due to changes made in the former). The changes made by mutator listeners do not fire other mutating listeners, though they will fire non-mutator listeners.
Examples
This example registers a listener that responds to any changes to the Store
's Values
.
import {createStore} from 'tinybase';
const store = createStore().setValues({open: true, employees: 3});
const listenerId = store.addValuesListener((store, getValueChange) => {
console.log('values changed');
console.log(getValueChange('employees'));
});
store.setValue('employees', 4);
// -> 'values changed'
// -> [true, 3, 4]
store.delListener(listenerId);
This example registers a listener that responds to any changes to the Store
's Values
, and which also mutates the Store
itself.
import {createStore} from 'tinybase';
const store = createStore().setValues({open: true, employees: 3});
const listenerId = store.addValuesListener(
(store) => store.setValue('updated', true),
true,
);
store.setValue('employees', 4);
console.log(store.getValues());
// -> {open: true, employees: 4, updated: true}
store.delListener(listenerId);
