React Redux Meteor

React bindings for Redux + Meteor.

Performant and flexible.

This project is forked from react-redux and will not send PR to the original repo because it's for Meteor ONLY.

What's new in react-redux-meteor

mapTrackerToProps is now the first argument of connect()

The Tracker props are NOT stored in redux store because they are client read-only and reactive. You can change Tracker props by calling Meteor methods.

const mapTrackerToProps = (state, props) => {
  if (Meteor.subscribe('posts').ready()) {
    return { posts: Posts.find().fetch() };
  }
  return { posts: [] };
};

const mapStateToProps = (state, props) => {
  return {
    // ...
  };
};

const mapDispatchToProps = (dispatch) => {
  return {
    // ...
  };
};

export default connect(
  mapTrackerToProps,
  mapStateToProps,
  mapDispatchToProps
)(PostList);

If you don't want to use Tracker data as props, just put null for the first argument

export default connect(
  null,
  mapStateToProps,
  mapDispatchToProps
)(PostList);

Q & A

Why not use createContainer in Meteor tutorial?

If you use createContainer and connect for react-redux, you have to create containers twice. It might affect (Not sure) the performance. But with react-redux-meteor, you will only create container once.

Why not use react-komposer?

The purpose of developing react-redux-meteor is for the users who are already familiar with react-redux. It just adds a parameter to connect() and very easy to use. However, if you never use react-redux, you can try either of them. react-komposer is also a good choice.

Will react-redux-meteor be merged to react-redux?

No. Because react-redux-meteor uses Tracker behind the scene which is especially for Meteor. However, if the official react-redux has updates, I will merge the updates into react-redux-meteor.
