Searching for Node packages
A place for an examples and my notes for using TypeScript and Redux
Note: we call npm packages 'repositories' bc 'package' is a reserved keyword in TS
npm run start
Redux Store
Will have repositories (a piece of state). -> willl be produced by a repositories reducer with 3 properties inside: data - list of repositories from NPM loading - true/false whether we are fetching data error - string, error message if one occurred during fetch
We will send actions to these reducers ^ Action creator - searchRepositories(searchterm).
The action creator will dispatch one of a variety of actions SearchRepositories - made a request and its pending SearchRepositoriesSuccess SearchRepositoriesError
Action types ‘search_repositories’ ‘search_repositories_success’ ‘search_repository_error’
Will have a single entry point for components to access Redux (reducers, action creators, middle-wares will be imported into the index.ts file, then export it from there) - from the index.ts file. This is best practices in TS rather than having components reaching directly into Redux files
One reducer (repositories), three pieces of state produced by this reducer (data, loading, error) - in state>reducer>respositoriesReducer.ts
