How to use
Expects the Component to have two static methods:
- getStores(): Should return an array of stores.
- getPropsFromStores(props): Should return the props from the stores.
Using old React.createClass() style:
const MyComponent = React.createClass({
statics: {
getStores(props) {
return [myStore]
},
getPropsFromStores(props) {
return myStore.getState()
}
},
render() {
// Use this.props like normal ...
}
})
MyComponent = connectToStores(MyComponent)
Using ES6 Class:
class MyComponent extends React.Component {
static getStores(props) {
return [myStore]
}
static getPropsFromStores(props) {
return myStore.getState()
}
render() {
// Use this.props like normal ...
}
}
MyComponent = connectToStores(MyComponent)
Using ES7 Decorators (proposal, stage 0):
@connectToStores
class MyComponent extends React.Component {
static getStores(props) {
return [myStore]
}
static getPropsFromStores(props) {
return myStore.getState()
}
render() {
// Use this.props like normal ...
}
}
