useSynchronizerStatus

The useSynchronizerStatus hook returns a the status of a Synchronizer, and registers a listener so that any changes to it will cause a re-render.

useSynchronizerStatus(synchronizerOrSynchronizerId?: SynchronizerOrSynchronizerId): Status
TypeDescription
synchronizerOrSynchronizerId?SynchronizerOrSynchronizerId

The Synchronizer to be accessed: omit for the default context Synchronizer, provide an Id for a named context Synchronizer, or provide an explicit reference.

returnsStatus

The status of the Synchronizer: 0 means idle, 1 means loading, and 2 means saving.

A Provider component is used to wrap part of an application in a context, and it can contain a default Synchronizer or a set of Synchronizer objects named by Id. The useSynchronizerStatus hook lets you indicate which Synchronizer to get data for: omit the optional parameter for the default context Synchronizer, provide an Id for a named context Synchronizer, or provide a Synchronizer explicitly by reference.

When first rendered, this hook will create a listener so that changes to the Synchronizer status will cause a re-render. When the component containing this hook is unmounted, the listener will be automatically removed.

Examples

This example creates a Synchronizer outside the application, which is used in the useSynchronizerStatus hook by reference. A change to the status of the Synchronizer re-renders the component.

import React from 'react';
import {createLocalSynchronizer} from 'tinybase/synchronizers/synchronizer-local';
import {createMergeableStore} from 'tinybase';
import {createRoot} from 'react-dom/client';
import {useSynchronizerStatus} from 'tinybase/ui-react';

const synchronizer = createLocalSynchronizer(createMergeableStore());
const App = () => <span>{useSynchronizerStatus(synchronizer)}</span>;

const app = document.createElement('div');
const root = createRoot(app);
root.render(<App />);
console.log(app.innerHTML);
// -> '<span>0</span>'

This example creates a Provider context into which a default Synchronizer is provided. A component within it then uses the useSynchronizerStatus hook.

import {Provider, useSynchronizerStatus} from 'tinybase/ui-react';
import React from 'react';
import {createLocalSynchronizer} from 'tinybase/synchronizers/synchronizer-local';
import {createMergeableStore} from 'tinybase';
import {createRoot} from 'react-dom/client';

const App = ({synchronizer}) => (
  <Provider synchronizer={synchronizer}>
    <Pane />
  </Provider>
);
const Pane = () => <span>{useSynchronizerStatus()}</span>;

const synchronizer = createLocalSynchronizer(createMergeableStore());
const app = document.createElement('div');
createRoot(app).render(<App synchronizer={synchronizer} />);
console.log(app.innerHTML);
// -> '<span>0</span>'

This example creates a Provider context into which a Synchronizer is provided, named by Id. A component within it then uses the useSynchronizerStatus hook.

import {Provider, useSynchronizerStatus} from 'tinybase/ui-react';
import React from 'react';
import {createLocalSynchronizer} from 'tinybase/synchronizers/synchronizer-local';
import {createMergeableStore} from 'tinybase';
import {createRoot} from 'react-dom/client';

const App = ({synchronizer}) => (
  <Provider synchronizersById={{petSynchronizer: synchronizer}}>
    <Pane />
  </Provider>
);
const Pane = () => <span>{useSynchronizerStatus('petSynchronizer')}</span>;

const synchronizer = createLocalSynchronizer(createMergeableStore());
const app = document.createElement('div');
createRoot(app).render(<App synchronizer={synchronizer} />);
console.log(app.innerHTML);
// -> '<span>0</span>'
