Migration from 2.x to 3.x

What' new

Support for Typescript. Intact intelligent code completion.
Props of View changed from { state, actions, handlers } to { state, ctrl }.
Hooks should be used with clear type of state, actions, ctrl.
Support to write imvc.config.ts with TypeScript. But it's syntax supported is stable, You can't add support syntax by any way.
Set webpackConfig.resolve.modules to default config.
Don't stop render when catch error which throwed while preloading css file. It will render the DOM without style and console error message at terminal.

How to upgrade

Update react-imvc to 3.x

npm

npm install --save react-imvc

or yarn

yarn add react-imvc

Add typescript support

(1) add install typescript

npm
```
npm install --save-dev typescript
```
or yarn
```
yarn add -D typescript
```
(2) add tsconfig.json

template: tsconfig.json

If you just want to use the config same with react-imvc and don't want to change any config information, you can create a tsconfig.json file with the content down here.
```
{
  "extends": "react-imvc/tsconfig.json"
}
```
(3) add tslint.json(not necessary)

template: tslint.json
If you use the template file, you need to install tslint-config-standard and tslint-config-prettier.

npm
```
npm  install --save-dev tslint tslint-config-standard tslint-config-prettier
```
or yarn
```
yarn add -D tslint tslint-config-standard tslint-config-prettier
```
Change js|jsx postfix to ts|tsx postfix

You need to rename file postfix needed.

If there are some code lack of standardization in you project, it will throw syntactic. eg.

the way import module lack of standardization
```
// bad
const foo = require('foo')

// bad
let foo = require('foo')

// not suggest
import foo = require('foo)
```
You can do it like code down here.
```
// good
// CommonJS
var foo = require('foo')

// better and suggest
// ES2015+
import foo from 'foo'
```
We suggest you to use the ES2015+ syntax, it will support all the feature of TypeScript.

There must be some spots else that we haven't record here. When you find please tell to me, we will append it here to help other people.

Refactor Model module

(1) Import BaseState to construct new State type

import { BaseState } from 'react-imvc'
export type State = BaseState & {
    // some new feild
}

(2) Import Action to construct action type

without payload

import { Action } from 'react-imvc'

export const COMPONENT_WILL_CREATE: Action<State> = (state) => {
    // do somethings
    return {
        ...state,
        // add some new value
    }
}

with payload

import { Action } from 'react-imvc'

export interface Payload { /* payload feild */ }
export const COMPONENT_WILL_CREATE: Action<State, Payload> = (state, { /* payload */ }) => {
    // do somethings
    return {
        ...state,
        // add some new value
    }
}

Refactor View module

(1) import State from Model

import { State } from './Model'

(2) import Ctrl from Controller

import Ctrl from './Controller'

(3) Construct ViewProps type

export type ViewProps = {
    state: State,
    ctrl: Ctrl
}

(4) Add ViewProps to View Component

export default function View({ state, ctrl }: ViewProps) {
    // do somethings
}

In v3.x, Props of View changed from { state, actions, handlers } to { state, actions, ctrl }. The ctrl is the superset of handlers, so you can migrate backwards compatibility like this:

export default function View({ state, actions, handlers }) {
    // do somethings
}

rewrite as

export default function View({ state, ctrl }: ViewProps) {
    const actions = ctrl.store.actions
    const handlers = ctrl
    // do somethings
}

Refactor Controller module

(1) Import View and Model

import View from "./View"
import * as Model from "./Model"

(2) Get the Actions type

// typescript: 3.6.x
export type Action = Omit<typeof Model, 'initialState'>

// typescript: 3.5.x
export type Action = Pick<typeof Model, Exclude<keyof typeof Model, 'initialState'>>

(3) Construct Controller class

class Detail extends Controller<Model.State, Actions> {
    View = View
    Model = Model
    // do somethings
}

Fix type error of hooks.(If you has used hooks in project)

(1) useCtrl

const ctrl = useCtrl()

rewrited as

import Ctrl from './Controller'
const ctrl = useCtrl<Ctrl>()

(2) useModel

const ctrl = useModel()

rewrited as

import * as Model from './Model'
type Actions = Omit<typeof Model, 'initialState'>

const ctrl = useModel<Model.State, Actions>()

(3) useModelActions

const ctrl = useModelActions()

rewrited as

import * as Model from './Model'
type Actions = Omit<typeof Model, 'initialState'>

const ctrl = useModelActions<Ctrl>()

(4) useModelState

const ctrl = useModelState()

rewrited as

import * as Model from './Model'
const ctrl = useModelState<Model.State>()

Note: Hooks must be used in View, React Components.

Note: If you has the BaseController, please look through how did we do in isomorphic-cnode

Life Circle Usage

import { Location, Context } from 'react-imvc'
import * as Model from './Model'

type Actions = Omit<typeof Model, 'initialState'>

class Controller {
    // do something...

    // life circle
    getInitialState(state: Model.State) { return state  }

    getFinalActions(actions: Actions) { return actions }

    async shouldComponentCreate(): { return false }

    async componentWillCreate() {  }

    async componentDidFirstMount() {  }

    async componentDidMount() {  }

    async pageWillLeave(location: Location) {  }

    async componentWillUnmount() {  }

    pageDidBack(location: Location, context?: Context) {  }

    windowWillUnload(location: Location) {  }

    errorDidCatch(error: Error, str: string) {  }

    getComponentFallback(displayName: string, InputComponent: React.ComponentType) { return <div></div> }

    getViewFallback(view?: string) { return <div></div> }

    stateDidReuse(state: Model.State) {  }

    stateDidChange(data?: Data<Model.State, Actions>) {  }
}

Notions when migrating

Don't change or override the type of attribute is BaseState, it will happen unpredictable error.
Both shouldComponentCreate and componentWillCreate is support both sync and async two mode programming. But when you extends Controller and overwrite these two method it's mode will be settled. If these are some mix usage. you must fix it by choose one mode(suggest async).
The default view file extension is 'js'. If you want to use other extension file, please add in config.(eg.view.tsx)
Props of View have changed from state, handlers, actions to state, actions, ctrl.
