How to organize actions

Valtio is unopinionated about organizing actions. Here's some recipes to show various patterns are possible.

Action functions defined in module

Note This way is preferred as it is better for code splitting.

import { proxy } from 'valtio'

export const state = proxy({
  count: 0,
  name: 'foo',
})

export const inc = () => {
  ++state.count
}

export const setName = (name) => {
  state.name = name
}

Action object defined in module

import { proxy } from 'valtio'

export const state = proxy({
  count: 0,
  name: 'foo',
})

export const actions = {
  inc: () => {
    ++state.count
  },
  setName: (name) => {
    state.name = name
  },
}

Action methods defined in state

export const state = proxy({
  count: 0,
  name: 'foo',
  inc: () => {
    ++state.count
  },
  setName: (name) => {
    state.name = name
  },
})

Action methods using this

export const state = proxy({
  count: 0,
  name: 'foo',
  inc() {
    ++this.count
  },
  setName(name) {
    this.name = name
  },
})

Using class

class State {
  count = 0
  name = 'foo'
  inc() {
    ++this.count
  }
  setName(name) {
    this.name = name
  }
}

export const state = proxy(new State())
