I just realease a library that generate immutable objects from Y.Doc. It is available in npm @csbenjamin/ymmutable. It was inspired in @syncedstore and Automerge. Some lines of code worth more than one thousand word:
import * as Y from 'yjs';
import {Ymmutable} from '@csbenjamin/ymmutable'
interface MyAmazingData {
someObject: {hello: string};
todoList: {description: string, done: boolean}[];
}
let store = Ymmutable<MyAmazingData>({someObject: 'object', todoList: 'array'});
expect(store.immutable.someObject).equal({});
expect(store.immutable.todoList).equal([]);
expect(store.doc instanceof Y.Doc).toBe(true);
expect(store.undoManager instanceof Y.UndoManager).toBe(true);
store.mutate(data => {
data.someObject.hello = 'World!';
data.todoList.push({descript: 'Share this with the World', done: false});
data.todoList.push({descript: 'Share this with the World 2', done: false});
});
expect(store.immutable.someObject).equal({hello: 'World!'});
expect(store.immutable.todoList[0]).equal([{descript: 'Share this with the World', done: false}]);
const oldImmutable = store.immutable;
store.mutate(data => {
data.todoList[0].done = true;
});
expect(store.immutable.todoList[0]).equal([{descript: 'Share this with the World', done: true}]);
expect(store.immutable === oldImmutable).toBe(false);
expect(store.immutable.someObject === oldImmutable.someObject).toBe(true);
expect(store.immutable.todoList === oldImmutable.todoList).toBe(false);
expect(store.immutable.todoList[0] === oldImmutable.todoList[0]).toBe(false);
expect(store.immutable.todoList[1] === oldImmutable.todoList[1]).toBe(true);
store.undoManager.undo();
expect(store.immutable.todoList[0]).equal([{descript: 'Share this with the World', done: false}]);
store.undoManager.undo();
expect(store.immutable.someObject).equal({});
expect(store.immutable.todoList).equal([]);
I built this library to use in frameworks like angular and react. There are a lot of work to do, so, feel free to contribute.
