Quasar RAT Disguised as an npm Package for Detecting Vulnerabilities in Ethereum Smart Contracts
Socket researchers uncover a malicious npm package posing as a tool for detecting vulnerabilities in Etherium smart contracts.
A Flux dispatcher for applications that run on the server and the client.
A Flux dispatcher for applications that run on the server and the client.
For a more detailed example, see our example applications.
var ExampleStore = require('./stores/ExampleStore.js');
var dispatcher = require('dispatchr').createDispatcher({
stores: [ExampleStore]
});
var contextOptions = {};
var dispatcherContext = dispatcher.createContext(contextOptions);
dispatcherContext.dispatch('NAVIGATE', {});
// Action has been handled fully
Dispatchr's main goal is to facilitate server-side rendering of Flux applications while also working on the client-side to encourage code reuse. In order to isolate stores between requests on the server-side, we have opted to instantiate the dispatcher and stores classes per request.
In addition, action registration is done by stores as a unit rather than individual callbacks. This allows us to lazily instantiate stores as the events that they handle are dispatched. Since instantiation of stores is handled by the dispatcher, we can keep track of the stores that were used during a request and dehydrate their state to the client when the server has completed its execution.
Lastly, we are able to enforce the Flux flow by restricting access to the
dispatcher from stores. Instead of stores directly requiring a singleton
dispatcher, we pass a dispatcher interface to the constructor of the stores to
provide access to only the functions that should be available to it: waitFor
and getStore
. This prevents the stores from dispatching an entirely new
action, which should only be done by action creators to enforce the
unidirectional flow that is Flux.
These utilities make creating stores less verbose and provide some change
related functions that are common amongst all store implementations. These
store helpers also implement a basic shouldDehydrate
function that returns
true if emitChange
has been called by the store and false otherwise.
require('dispatchr/addons/BaseStore')
provides a base store class for
extending. Provides getContext
, emitChange
, addChangeListener
, and
removeChangeListener
functions. Example:
var inherits = require('inherits');
var BaseStore = require('dispatchr/addons/BaseStore');
var MyStore = function (dispatcherInterface) {
BaseStore.apply(this, arguments);
};
inherits(MyStore, BaseStore);
MyStore.storeName = 'MyStore';
MyStore.handlers = {
'NAVIGATE': function (payload) { ... this.emitChange() ... }
};
MyStore.prototype.getFoo = function () { var context = this.getContext(), ... }
module.exports = MyStore;
require('dispatchr/addons/createStore')
provides a helper function for
creating stores similar to React's createClass
function. The created store
class will extend BaseStore and have the same built-in functions. Example:
var createStore = require('dispatchr/addons/createStore');
var MyStore = createStore({
initialize: function () {}, // Called immediately after instantiation
storeName: 'MyStore',
handlers: {
'NAVIGATE': function (payload) { ... this.emitChange() ... }
}
foo: function () { ... }
});
module.exports = MyStore;
