Redux Persist Transform Immutable
Add immutable sub-reducer support to redux-persist.
NOTE this handles immutable state on a per-reducer basis. If your top level state is an Immutable Map, use redux-persist-immutable
Usage
import { compose } from 'redux'
import { persistStore, autoRehydrate } from 'redux-persist'
import immutableTransform from 'redux-persist-transform-immutable'
const reducer = combineReducers(reducers)
const store = compose(autoRehydrate(), createStore)(reducer)
persistStore(store, {transforms: [immutableTransform()]})
Usage with Records
By default, immutable Record
s will be persisted and restored as Map
s, because the library has no way of knowing what your Record
constructor looks like. To change this behavior and allow a Record
to be persisted and restored as a Record
instance, you'll need to do two things:
- Add a name attribute to your record (this is the second argument to a
Record
's constructor). - Pass your
Record
constructor to the transformer's withRecords()
function to generate a transformer capable of serializing and deserializing the record.
Minimal example:
import { compose } from 'redux'
import { persistStore, autoRehydrate } from 'redux-persist'
import immutableTransform from 'redux-persist-transform-immutable'
const reducer = combineReducers(reducers)
const store = compose(autoRehydrate(), createStore)(reducer)
const MyRecord = Record({
foo: 'null'
}, 'MyRecord')
persistStore(
store,
{
transforms: [immutableTransform({records: [MyRecord]})]
}
)
Avoiding Unnecessary Serialization
By default, redux-persist-immutable-transform
will serialize and deserialize all passed objects using transit-immutable-js
. If you are concerned about performance, you can either whitelist or blacklist reducer that you know are not immutable.
Example state object:
state = {
username: 'john',
imageUri: 'images/profilePic.png',
friends: Immutable.List([ ... ])
}
Set up the transformer to ignore the string-based reducer keys:
persistStore(store, {
transforms: [immutableTransform({
blacklist: ['username', 'imageUri']
})]
})
persistStore(store, {
transforms: [immutableTransform({
whitelist: ['friends']
})]
})
