Redux Undo Immutable

A higher order reducer to add undo/redo to redux state containers using immutable js!

About

This small project enables you to have undo/redo functionality on your redux reducers as easy as pie. It is conceptually identical to redx-undo and shares almost the same API. The primary distinction is that it uses immutable js for the state data structure (for those of us who prefer it to be turtles all the way down).

Installation

This project marks immutable js as an external dependency so make sure you also have that installed.

npm install --save redux-undo-immutable

API

import undoable from 'redux-undo-immutable';
undoable(reducer)
undoable(reducer, config)

The result of the above is another reducer that will update state as a historical log:

{
  past: List([0, 1, 2])
  present: 3,
  future: List([4, 5, 6])
}

Note: If you were accessing state.counter before, you have to access state.counter.present after wrapping your reducer with undoable.

Configuration

import { ActionTypes } from 'redux-undo-immutable';

undoable(reducer, {
  limit: 0, // set to a number to turn on a limit for the history (0 means infinite)

  // TODO, explain these better:
  // filter for actions that are not allowed to become part of history
  actionFilter: () => true,
  // filter for states that are not allowed to become part of history
  historyFilter: () => true,

  undoType: ActionTypes.UNDO, // define a custom action type for this undo action
  redoType: ActionTypes.REDO, // define a custom action type for this redo action
  jumpType: ActionTypes.JUMP, // define custom action type for this jump action
  jumpToPastType: ActionTypes.JUMP_TO_PAST, // define custom action type for this jumpToPast action
  jumpToFutureType: ActionTypes.JUMP_TO_FUTURE, // define custom action type for this jumpToFuture action
  clearHistoryType: ActionTypes.CLEAR_HISTORY, // define custom action type for this clearHistory action
})

Actions

There are some built in action creators for convenience (if you choose not to customize the Action types):

import { ActionCreators } from 'redux-undo-immutable';

store.dispatch(ActionCreators.undo()) // undo the last action
store.dispatch(ActionCreators.redo()) // redo the last action

store.dispatch(ActionCreators.jump(-2)) // undo 2 steps
store.dispatch(ActionCreators.jump(5)) // redo 5 steps

store.dispatch(ActionCreators.jumpToPast(index)) // jump to requested index in the past List
store.dispatch(ActionCreators.jumpToFuture(index)) // jump to requested index in the future List

store.dispatch(ActionCreators.clearHistory()) // Remove all items from past and future Lists
