useIndexes

The useIndexes primitive is used to get a reference to an Indexes object from within a Provider component context.

useIndexes(id?: MaybeAccessor<undefined | string>): Accessor<Indexes | undefined>
TypeDescription
id?MaybeAccessor<undefined | string>

An optional Id for accessing an Indexes object that was named with an Id in the Provider.

returnsAccessor<Indexes | undefined>

A reference to the Indexes object (or undefined if not within a Provider context, or if the requested Indexes object does not exist).

A Provider component is used to wrap part of an application in a context. It can contain a default Indexes object (or a set of Indexes objects named by Id) that can be easily accessed without having to be passed down as props through every component.

The useIndexes primitive lets you either get a reference to the default Indexes object (when called without a parameter), or one of the Indexes objects that are named by Id (when called with an Id parameter).

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 {useIndexes} 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');
  useIndexes();
  dispose();
});
