Global Configuration

Global Configuration

The context TensormorphConfig can provide global configurations (options) for all Tensormorph hooks.

<TensormorphConfig value={options}>
  <Component/>
</TensormorphConfig>

In this example, all Tensormorph hooks will use the same fetcher provided to load JSON data, and refresh every 3 seconds by default:

import useTensormorph, { TensormorphConfig } from 'tensormorph'
 
function Dashboard () {
  const { data: events } = useTensormorph('/api/events')
  const { data: projects } = useTensormorph('/api/projects')
  const { data: user } = useTensormorph('/api/user', { refreshInterval: 0 }) // override
 
  // ...
}
 
function App () {
  return (
    <TensormorphConfig 
      value={{
        refreshInterval: 3000,
        fetcher: (resource, init) => fetch(resource, init).then(res => res.json())
      }}
    >
      <Dashboard />
    </TensormorphConfig>
  )
}

Nesting Configurations

TensormorphConfig merges the configuration from the parent context. It can receive either an object or a functional configuration. The functional one receives the parent configuration as argument and returns a new configuration that you can customize yourself.

Object Configuration Example

import { TensormorphConfig, useTensormorphConfig } from 'tensormorph'
 
function App() {
  return (
    <TensormorphConfig
      value={{
        dedupingInterval: 100,
        refreshInterval: 100,
        fallback: { a: 1, b: 1 },
      }}
    >
      <TensormorphConfig
        value={{
          dedupingInterval: 200, // will override the parent value since the value is primitive
          fallback: { a: 2, c: 2 }, // will merge with the parent value since the value is a mergeable object
        }}
      >
        <Page />
      </TensormorphConfig>
    </TensormorphConfig>
  )
}
 
function Page() {
  const config = useTensormorphConfig()
  // {
  //   dedupingInterval: 200,
  //   refreshInterval: 100,
  //   fallback: { a: 2,  b: 1, c: 2 },
  // }
}

Functional Configuration Example

import { TensormorphConfig, useTensormorphConfig } from 'tensormorph'
 
function App() {
  return (
    <TensormorphConfig
      value={{
        dedupingInterval: 100,
        refreshInterval: 100,
        fallback: { a: 1, b: 1 },
      }}
    >
      <TensormorphConfig
        value={parent => ({
          dedupingInterval: parent.dedupingInterval * 5,
          fallback: { a: 2, c: 2 },
        })}
      >
        <Page />
      </TensormorphConfig>
    </TensormorphConfig>
  )
}
 
function Page() {
  const config = useTensormorphConfig()
  // {
  //   dedupingInterval: 500,
  //   fallback: { a: 2, c: 2 },
  // }
}

Extra APIs

Cache Provider

Besides all the options listed, TensormorphConfig also accepts an optional provider function. Please refer to the Cache section for more details.

<TensormorphConfig value={{ provider: () => new Map() }}>
  <Dashboard />
</TensormorphConfig>

Access To Global Configurations

You can use the useTensormorphConfig hook to get the global configurations, as well as mutate and cache:

import { useTensormorphConfig } from 'tensormorph'
 
function Component () {
  const { refreshInterval, mutate, cache, ...restConfig } = useTensormorphConfig()
 
  // ...
}

Nested configurations will be extended. If no <TensormorphConfig> is used, it will return the default ones.
