SliceView

The SliceView component renders the contents of a Slice, and registers a listener so that any changes to that result will cause an update.

SliceView(props: SliceProps): ComponentReturnType
TypeDescription
propsSliceProps

The props for this component.

returnsComponentReturnType

A rendering of the Slice, or nothing, if not present.

The component's props identify which Slice to render based on Index Id, Slice Id, and Indexes object (which is either the default context Indexes object, a named context Indexes object, or an explicit reference).

This component renders a Slice by iterating over its Row objects. By default these are in turn rendered with the RowView component, but you can override this behavior by providing a rowComponent prop, a custom component of your own that will render a Row based on RowProps. You can also pass additional props to your custom component with the getRowComponentProps callback prop.

This component uses the useSliceRowIds primitive under the covers, which means that any changes to the structure of the Slice will cause an update.

Example

This example creates the TinyBase objects needed by the Solid primitive or component and calls it from within a reactive root.

import {createRoot} from 'solid-js';
import {
  createCheckpoints,
  createIndexes,
  createMetrics,
  createQueries,
  createRelationships,
  createStore,
} from 'tinybase';
import {SliceView} from 'tinybase/ui-solid';

createRoot((dispose) => {
  const store = createStore()
    .setTables({
      pets: {
        fido: {species: 'dog', color: 'brown', next: 'felix'},
        felix: {species: 'cat', color: 'black'},
      },
      species: {dog: {price: 5}, cat: {price: 4}},
    })
    .setValues({open: true});
  const metrics = createMetrics(store).setMetricDefinition(
    'highestPrice',
    'species',
    'max',
    'price',
  );
  const indexes = createIndexes(store).setIndexDefinition(
    'bySpecies',
    'pets',
    'species',
  );
  const relationships = createRelationships(store)
    .setRelationshipDefinition('petSpecies', 'pets', 'species', 'species')
    .setRelationshipDefinition('nextPet', 'pets', 'pets', 'next');
  const queries = createQueries(store).setQueryDefinition(
    'petColors',
    'pets',
    ({select, where, param}) => {
      select('color');
      where((getCell) => getCell('species') == param('species'));
    },
    {species: 'dog'},
  );
  const checkpoints = createCheckpoints(store);
  store.setCell('pets', 'fido', 'color', 'walnut');
  checkpoints.setCheckpoint('updated color');
  metrics.getMetric('highestPrice');
  indexes.getSliceIds('bySpecies');
  relationships.getRemoteRowId('petSpecies', 'fido');
  queries.getResultRowIds('petColors');
  SliceView({indexId: 'bySpecies', sliceId: 'dog', indexes});
  dispose();
});
