useTableIdsListener

The useTableIdsListener primitive registers a listener function with a Store that will be called whenever the Table Ids in it change.

useTableIdsListener(
  listener: TableIdsListener,
  mutator?: boolean,
  storeOrStoreId?: MaybeAccessor<undefined | StoreOrStoreId>,
): void
TypeDescription
listenerTableIdsListener

The function that will be called whenever the Table Ids in the Store change.

mutator?boolean

An optional boolean that indicates that the listener mutates Store data.

storeOrStoreId?MaybeAccessor<undefined | StoreOrStoreId>

The Store to register the listener with: omit for the default context Store, provide an Id for a named context Store, or provide an explicit reference.

returnsvoid

This has no return value.

This primitive is useful for situations where a component needs to register its own specific listener to do more than simply tracking the value (which is more easily done with the useTableIds primitive).

Unlike the addTableIdsListener method, which returns a listener Id and requires you to remove it manually, the useTableIdsListener primitive manages this you to remove it manually, the useTablesListener primitive manages this lifecycle for you: when the component unmounts, the listener on the underlying Store will be deleted.

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 {useTableIdsListener} 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');
  useTableIdsListener(() => undefined, false, store);
  dispose();
});
