State Management with Apollo Client and Vue using Reactive Variable

Jul 27, 2022

3 min read

State Management is an integral part of Software development with tools like VueX, Pinia which is like VueX 5, Redux, Context API, and others.

In our example, we will be using Vue3 composition API, a bit of TypeScript.

This article will assume that you already have a project setup with Apollo.

State Managemnet

Before we dive into what state management is and what it offers, lets understand few thing which are integral to it.

What is State?

State is a part of an application, such as user details, usernames, login information, and website themes(dark or light).

In simple terms, state is like a warehouse that's contents you can access when you need to from wherever you are.

What is State Management?

State Management is just simply a design pattern to help synchronize the state of the application throughout all of the components in the application. This also prevents us from passing too many props accross the application.

When to implement State Management:

When the application contains large number of components.
To prevent redundant data, knowing well some other components might need that data.
Prevent passing props across the application, making it messy.

For more explainations, you can check the links below:

How to implement State management?

There are so many ways to do it. But in this discussion, we will be implementing it with Vue Apollo.

Apollo Client

It is the client for Vue Apollo. It helps to easily integrate GraphQL queries and mutation in your application which, in our case, is Vue.

Reactive Variables

This is a new feature from Apollo Client 3.

Reactive variables are a useful mechanism for representing local state outside of the Apollo Client cache.

How to create a Reactive variable in Apollo?

This is quite simple since Apollo client provides us with makeVar.


import { makeVar } from '@apollo/client';

const counts = makeVar(0);
console.log(counts());
// Output: 0

/* Update the value of counts */
counts(1);
console.log(counts());
// Output: 1

const cartItemsVar = makeVar([]);
console.log(cartItemsVar());
// Output: []

/* Update the value of cartItemsVar */
cartItemsVar(['Vue', 'Apollo', 'State Management']);
console.log(cartItemsVar());
// Output: ['Vue', 'Apollo', 'State Management']

const isLoggedIn = makeVar(false);
console.log(isLoggedIn());
//  Output: false

/* Update the value of isLoggedIn */
isLoggedIn(true);
console.log(isLoggedIn());
// Output: true

What the above code means is we make use of makeVar to create a variable of any type be it boolean, number, array, or object. Also, by calling the variable that makeVar is assigned to without passing a parameter will only output its current value, but passing a parameter will update its value.

You can learn more about makeVar here.

Setup of the Project

We will be creating a state for a counter that does increment, decrement, or reset. But first, let's set up our enviroment.

Setting up the Reactive variable

Lets create our reactive variable in ./variables/counts.js:


import { makeVar } from '@apollo/client';

export const counts = makeVar(0);

Configuring the cache

Lets also update our cache config to something like this:


// Need to import the variable we reated
import { counts } from '../variables/counts';

// Cache implementation
const cache = new InMemoryCache({
  typePolicies: {
    Query: {
      fields: {
        count: { //The name we will be querying
          read() {
            return counts(); //Returns the updated value of counts
          },
        },
      },
    },
  },
});

Creating a component

Let's create ./components/Counter.vue component:


<template>
  <div>
    <div class="col-3">
      <h6>
        Count: <span v-if="!loading">{{ count }}</span>
      </h6>
    </div>
    <div class="col-3">
      <button @click="increment">Increment</button>
    </div>
    <div class="col-3">
        <button @click="decrement">Decrement</button>
    </div> 
    <div class="col-3">
      <button @click="reset">Reset</button>
    </div>

  </div>
</template>

<script lang="ts">
import { computed, defineComponent } from 'vue';

export default defineComponent({
  name: 'NumberCounter',
});
</script>

<script lang="ts" setup>
import { counts } from 'src/variables/counts';
import { useQuery } from '@vue/apollo-composable';
import gql from 'graphql-tag';

// This is to fetch the count value using the query
const COUNTERS_QUERY = gql`
  query Counter {
    count @client
  }
`;

const { result, loading } = useQuery(COUNTERS_QUERY);

const count = computed(() => (result.value ? result.value.count : 0));

const increment = () => {
  let cnts = counts();
  cnts++;
  counts(cnts);
};

const decrement = () => {
  let cnts = counts();
  cnts--;
  counts(cnts);
};

const reset = () => {
  cnts= 0;
  counts(cnts);
};

</script>

Please note that you can always get the counts value even without the GraphQL query. All you need to do is call count() like the example about Reactive variables, and force a re-render using loading as a ref.

Like this:


 <template>
  <div>
    <div class="col-3">
      <h6>
        Count: <span v-if="!loading">{{ counts() }}</span>
      </h6>
    </div>
    <div class="col-3">
      <button @click="increment">Increment</button>
    </div>
    <div class="col-3">
        <button @click="decrement">Decrement</button>
    </div> 
    <div class="col-3">
      <button @click="reset">Reset</button>
    </div>

  </div>
</template>

<script lang="ts">
import { ref, defineComponent } from 'vue';

export default defineComponent({
  name: 'NumberCounter',
});
</script>

<script lang="ts" setup>
import { counts } from 'src/variables/counts';
// loading ref to help re-render when there is a change so as to get the latest value of counts.
const loading = ref(false);

const increment = () => {
  let cnts = counts();
  loading.value = true;
  cnts++;
  counts(cnts);
  loading.value = false;
};

const decrement = () => {
  let cnts = counts();
  loading.value = true;
  cnts--;
  counts(cnts);
  loading.value = false;
};

const reset = () => {
  cnts = 0;
  loading.value = true;
  counts(cnts);
  loading.value = false;
};

</script>

loading ref to help re-render when there is a change so as to get the latest value of counts.

The manner you will prefer depends on what you want to achieve. But I will go with the example with the query as it still preserves the GraphQL feel.

Conclusion

State Management with Apollo Client saves you the stress of installing VueX, or Redux (for the React users), as long as the application makes use of Apollo. In this quick training, we learned about state and why state management is important to building and maintaining applications.

Understanding Vue.js's <Suspense> and Async Components

In this blog post, we will delve into how and async components work, their benefits, and practical implementation strategies to make your Vue.js applications more efficient and user-friendly. Without further ado, let’s get started! Suspense Let's kick off by explaining what Suspense components are. They are a new component that helps manage how your application handles components that need to await for some async resource to resolve, like fetching data from a server, waiting for images to load, or any other task that might take some time to complete before they can be properly rendered. Imagine you're building a web page that needs to load data from a server, and you have 2 components that fetch the data you need as they will show different things. Typically, you might see a loading spinner or a skeleton while the data is being fetched. Suspense components make it easier to handle these scenarios. Instead of manually managing loading states and error messages for each component that needs to fetch data, Suspense components let you wrap all these components together. Inside this wrapper, you can define: 1. What to show while the data is loading (like a loading spinner). 2. The actual content that should be displayed once the data is successfully fetched. This way, Vue Suspense simplifies the process of handling asynchronous operations (like data fetching) and improves the user (and the developer) experience by providing a more seamless and integrated way to show loading states and handle errors. There are two types of async dependencies that can wait on: - Components with an async setup() hook. This includes components using with top-level await expressions. *Note: These can only be used within a component.* - Async Components. Async components Vue's asynchronous components are like a smart loading system for your web app. Imagine your app as a big puzzle. Normally, you'd put together all the pieces at once, which can take time. But what if some pieces aren't needed right away? Asynchronous components help with this. Here's how they work: - Load Only What's Needed: Just like only picking up puzzle pieces you need right now, asynchronous components let your app load only the parts that are immediately necessary. Other parts can be loaded later, as needed. - Faster Start: Your app starts up faster because it doesn't have to load everything at once. It's like quickly starting with the border of a puzzle and filling in the rest later. - Save Resources: It uses your web resources (like internet data) more wisely, only grabbing what’s essential when it's essential. In short, asynchronous components make your app quicker to start and more efficient, improving the overall experience for your users. Example: ` Combining Async Components and Suspense Let's explore how combining asynchronous components with Vue's Suspense feature can enhance your application. When asynchronous components are used with Vue's Suspense, they form a powerful combination. The key point is that async components are "suspensable" by default. This means they can be easily integrated with Suspense to improve how your app handles loading and rendering components. When used together, you can do the following things: - Centralized Loading and Error Handling: With Suspense, you don't have to handle loading and error states individually for each async component. Instead, you can define a single loading indicator or error message within the Suspense component. This unified approach simplifies your code and ensures consistency across different parts of your app. - Flexible and Clean Code Structure: By combining async components with Suspense, your code becomes more organized and easier to maintain. An asynchronous component has the flexibility to operate independently of Suspense's oversight. By setting suspensible: false in its options, the component takes charge of its own loading behavior. This means that instead of relying on Suspense to manage when it appears, the component itself dictates its loading state and presentation. This option is particularly useful for components that have specific loading logic or visuals they need to maintain, separate from the broader Suspense-driven loading strategy in the application. In practice, this combo allows you to create a user interface that feels responsive and cohesive. Users see a well-timed loading indicator while the necessary components are being fetched, and if something goes wrong, a single, well-crafted error message is displayed. It's like ensuring that the entire puzzle is either revealed in its completed form or not at all rather than showing disjointed parts at different times. How it works When a component inside the boundary is waiting for something asynchronous, shows fallback content. This fallback content can be anything you choose, such as a loading spinner or a message indicating that data is being loaded. Example Usage Let’s use a simple example: In the visual example provided, imagine we have two Vue components: one showcasing a selected Pokémon, Eevee, and a carousel showcasing a variety of other Pokémon. Both components are designed to fetch data asynchronously. Without , while the data is being fetched, we would typically see two separate loading indicators: one for the Eevee Pokemon that is selected and another for the carousel. This can make the page look disjointed and be a less-than-ideal user experience. We could display a single, cohesive loading indicator by wrapping both components inside a boundary. This unified loading state would persist until all the data for both components—the single Pokémon display and the carousel—has been fetched and is ready to be rendered. Here's how you might structure the code for such a scenario: ` Here, is the component that's performing asynchronous operations. While loading, the text 'Loading...' is displayed to the user. Great! But what about when things don't go as planned and an error occurs? Currently, Vue's doesn't directly handle errors within its boundary. However, there's a neat workaround. You can use the onErrorCaptured() hook in the parent component of to catch and manage errors. Here's how it works: ` If we run this code, and let’s say that we had an error selecting our Pokemon, this is how it is going to display to the user: The error message is specifically tied to the component where the issue occurred, ensuring that it's the only part of your application that shows an error notification. Meanwhile, the rest of your components will continue to operate and display as intended, maintaining the overall user experience without widespread disruption. This targeted error handling keeps the application's functionality intact while indicating where the problem lies. Conclusion stands out as a formidable feature in Vue.js, transforming the management of asynchronous operations into a more streamlined and user-centric process. It not only elevates the user experience by ensuring smoother interactions during data loading phases but also enhances code maintainability and application performance. I hope you found this blog post enlightening and that it adds value to your Vue.js projects. As always, happy coding and continue to explore the vast possibilities Vue.js offers to make your applications more efficient and engaging!...

Getting started with Vitepress

Getting started with Vitepress to create your blog site Have you heard about Vitepress, but you have not checked it out at it yet? Well, in this article, we are going to cover the basic setup and share what all the fuss about this new fantastic static site generator. If you are looking for something that would allow you to quickly create a static site with Markdown support, search, Light/Dark theme, advertisement, navigation, and much more, then Vitepress is what you are looking for. Suppose you want some proof of Vitepress's power without having to invest any further time, I suggest you head over to the main Vitepress site (vitepress.dev) and experience what Vitepress can do, as the official site is built on Vitepress! What is Vitepress Vitepress is a powerful Static Site Generator powered by Vite mainly used for Documentation and Blogs with the default theme, and open to customization to be used for anything you may need it to with custom themes and theme overrides.. Vitepress power comes from its low learning curve, powerful configuration settings, and the ability to easily customize it. For example, internationalization is built-in, Theme toggling is built-in and even full-site searches require a single line in the config to be set up. What makes Vitepress so powerful is its extensive configuration and the fact that it can be customized by overriding the existing theme, creating your theme, or simply enhancing pages with custom Vue code. Prerequisites To successfully run the following demo, you will need: - Node.js version 18 or higher. - Terminal for accessing VitePress via its command line interface (CLI). - Text Editor with Markdown syntax support. - VSCode is recommended, along with the official Vue extension. Create your project To create the project, we will follow the steps shown in the official Getting Started guide. If you want to set up a Vitepress project quickly, run the following steps: - Create a new folder mkdir vitepress-tutorial - Access the folder cd vitepress-tutorial - Install Vitepress npm add -D vitepress - Run the Wizard npx vitepress init - Answer the questions: - Where should VitePress initialize the config? - Site title - Site Description - Theme - Do you want Typescript support? - run npm run docs:dev - Enjoy your site. After you run the above steps, your Vitepress will be ready and running as shown below What is available out of the box The site comes fully set up with enough to get you started. Let's see what features are available within the software: - Navbar: The site comes with a Navbar that already includes links to our blog pages - Light/Dark theme: Out of the box theming - Home page: Basic Homepage layout - Blogs: Two different blog posts with sidebar navigation All of the above is available with just 4 files! Let's move forward and see how to customize our app. Overriding the homepage It is time to modify our site by accessing its folders. What you will probably notice when opening the site, is that Vitepress follows a very simple file structure, in fact, a new installation just includes 4 extra files on top of the expected package.json and node_modules. Let's update our homepage to make it more unique. Because Vitepress follows a "file-system based router" we can find this file within the root of the project within a file called index.md. This file will be accessible at "/" or "/index.html" of your site. The content of the file is the following: ` As you can see, the file has no code in it, and it is just driven by configuration, or more specifically in this case Markdown frontmatter, that is a set of configurations accepted by markdown files that help you set up your options such as title, description, og:image. We will describe frontmatter in more detail later in the article. Before we jump into modifying the configuration of the file, you should know that Vitepress has a very extensive and well-detailed documentation site where you can find help if you are stuck or would like to learn more. In this case, we are overriding the "home" page, so the documentation can be found here: Home Page Default Theme configuration. If you read the current file within the homepage, you will notice that it defines a "layout" of "home". This layout displays a main header with CTAs and a set of feature blocks. There are three different layouts available in the Default theme: "home", "doc" and "page". The title and description have already been set from the information we provided from the installation wizard. But the rest is just a basic boiler template. Let's see what we can change: 1) Add a hero image. This image can either be externally sourced or saved within the repository. ` 2) Update the action buttons. ` As shown above, Action buttons have two themes "brand" or "alt" and can accept internal or external links. Vitepress is clever enough to set the external links to open in a new tab and set the rel="noreferrer". 3) Change the feature blocks: Features blocks are great for engaging with the user and telling them what makes your site special. This accepts an icon and some text, so let's change ours with the following: ` The homepage is now completed and updated and it should look like this: Please note that what we did on the homepage is just changing the markdown front matter of the "home" layout. What this means is that if you want to, you can easily customise the page further by either adding more blocks to the layout file or actually by writing and styling the rest of the page as normal. Site configuration In this step, we are going learn about the main site configuration and how we can use it to customize our site. The configuration file can be found in the .vitepress folder under the name of "config.mjs". Just like the homepage layout, the configuration used in the preset file is self-explanatory: ` This file is very important and you are probably going to have it open at all times as it is going to be responsible for the layout of the sidebar navigations of your site. In this section, we are going to learn how to use the Vitepress configuration file to achieve the following: - Modify the sidebar navigation - Enable Search - Add Favicon to your site Modify the sidebar navigation The sidebar is the component displayed on the left-hand side of the blog pages. This is not automatically generated, but it is manually set in this file. You can have more than one navigation, so, for example, you could specify sidebar navigation that shows in pages that have "/blog/" within their path and another one for all markdown pages that have "/tutorials/". Let's see how to implement this: ` With the above code, there will be 2 different sidebars. One will just show if the URL includes "/blog" and the other will be displayed if the path includes "tutorials". Clicking on the above items will give a 404 error as we do not have any pages in that specific location. Still, we can easily fix the issue by creating the two folders "blog" and "tutorial" and creating the required files within these folders in our case are "index.md" and "one.md" for the blog and "index.md" and "two.md" for tutorials. The sidebar has further settings like the ability to create a nested tree or create collapsable menus. You can learn more by checking out the the official documentation on default theme sidebar. Enable Search No documentation or blog site is complete until a search is fully implemented on it. Luckily for us, enabling a site-wide search is extremely simple with Vitepress. Vitepress supports two different search types: a full-text search using minisearch and Algolia based search. In this tutorial, we are going to enable the full-text search. This is fully built-in and requires no external accounts. To enable search, we need to add a "Search" parameter within our themeConfig and set the provider to "local". We can add this right below the socialLinks. ` With just a simple config change, our site will now have a full site search working as shown below: The official search documentation has further information about the look and functionality of the search. Add Favicon to your site Even if the site configuration is very extensive, there are times when you will need to add something within the site-wise page that is not available. In this section we are going to learn how to add specific attributes to the of our site, and specifically how to add a favicon. To add custom values to the head, we are going to use the "head" properties available with the Vitepress configuration. The "head" configuration is an array that accepts an array with the element type (eg. link, script, meta), and an object including all the attributes for that specific element. So for example to replicate the following HTML: ` we would define the following head config: ` We can use this technique to set up metadata and even load fonts or Google Analytics. More info in the site-config head Writing your post In the last section of this article, we are going to learn how to actually write a blog post and also learn how to customize the pages with JS and styles. Writing your first page In the previous section, we created a couple of markdown files, but they are currently empty. Let's see how to create beautiful documentation using the built-in feature of Vitepress. In this section, we are going to work on the file stored in /blog/index.md. This file can be accessed in your browser by accessing "http://localhost:5174/blog/index.html". Blog Frontmatter Every file needs to have a frontmatter defined. This is used to define basic information on the page, such as the title, description, and more. For best SEO results, it is best practice to always define a title and description for a new page. We can do this by adding the following code at the top of our file: ` Frontmatter in Markdown files are delimited by the "---". In the above code, we set our title and description. Vitepress frontmatter supports further config like lastUpdates, sidebar, outline, and more. You can find info on the frontmatter-config documentation. Frontmatter has some global configuration, such as title and description, but also "layout specific" settings that are just available on specific layouts. This is clearly explained in the documentation. Blog Markdown Now that our post frontmatter is set, it is time to write the content of it. This is done using a very extensive markdown engine. Let's start with the basics and write a heading with some text and a link as shown below: ` After saving, our development environment will show the following results: Let's add a couple of headings and a table of contents to our document using [[toc]] to the top of our page: ` The above will produce an unordered list with all our links. The last feature that I want to share about the Vitepress markdown engine is the code editors. The markdown engine used in Vitepress offers extensive features when it comes to code rendering. Features available are "code highlight", "code focus", external snippets loading and much more. The full list of features can be found in the markdown docs. Let's implement a simple code snippet with a line of code focused. This can be achieved by adding "// [!code focus]" at the end of our row. Let's give it a try: ` The output of this will be: Customize your blog with Vue In this last section, we will learn how to customize our code by adding js logic, style, and external components. Before we begin, it is important to understand that when you use the default template of Vitepress, your pages are going to be rendered with Vue. This means that we can expand the individual page's functionality by rendering other vue components and/or writing logic and styles directly on the page. To better explain this concept, we are going to create a team page. Create a file called team.md within the root of our repository. This file will be accessible on "http://localhost:5174/team.html" and will be just a simple Markdown file. First, we set up the frontmatter as before. In this case, we have to specify an additional config called "layout". This will ensure the page has no style or components loaded such as sidebar or aside. ` Then we will have to create our team variable, just like a normal Vue component; we can do so by defining a script setup tag and defining the constant there. ` In the above code, we have imported the VPTeamMembers component from the vitepress/theme and defined an array of members. The values used in the members array are hardcoded, but as you may expect, you can load this information directly from an API. We now have to use the "members" variable within our file. We can do so by writing normal JavaScript. The markdown file will evaluate the JavaScript and render it, so in the following example it will render a specific component. ` Before we move forward we need to define some style as the page is unstyled since we have loaded the layout of "page". Just like we did with the tag, we can load a tag and update our styles: ` The completed file will look like this: ` The file above now includes: - A frontmatter that specifies a "page" layout - A script tag that loads an external component and defines a variable - Styles to make the page pretty - Markdown with a custom component The completed team page would render the following: Conclusion Vitepress is an extremely flexible static site generator. Its default theme provides you with everything you need to get started quickly. The ability to load external themes, enhance the current theme, and or write custom code within your page makes this tool extremely powerful. In future articles, we will discover what components are available within the Default Theme and see how you can make the most of your Vitepress site but keep on coding....

Mocking REST API in Unit Test Using MSW

Unit testing has become an integral part of application development, and in this discussion, we will be talking about mocking API while unit testing using MSW, a tool used for mocking APIs. We also won't be setting the test environment up since we expect you have already done so, and also we will be using a React project for our testing. Please note: the setup will work for any framework of your choice. What is MSW? MSW (Mock Service Worker) is an API mocking library that uses Service Worker API to intercept actual requests. Why Mock? Well, it avoids us making an actual HTTP request by leveraging on mock server, and a service worker which, in turn, prevents any form of break should something go wrong with the server you would have sent a request to. What is a Mock Server? A mock server imitates a real API server by returning the mock API responses to the API requests. This will help intercept the API request. You can read more here. Project Setup We will be installing few packges, and doing a little configuration. Installations We will be installing the following - msw: This package helps use to mock the API request and also helps us set up the server. - whatwg-fetch: Not always required, but what it does is it makes fetch available if you are useing the fetch API. Sometimes you get this: ` Creating the mock config Lets create a mock folder in our src folder to keep things organized. We want to have two files in the mock folder in this example: - postHandler.js: Here, we will have the handler that will help with intercepting the API. - serverSetup.js: Here we will set up or server that will house the handler. postHandler.js content Its important that the API url matches the url you intend to intercept: ` Lets explain the above code: posts: This is dummy data that is going to serve as our response data knowing full well what the data structure might look like. postHandler: This will serve as the handler, which will help in intercepting the request made to that url. serverSetUp.js content ` From the above code, the setupServer can take in any number of handlers separated by comma. The setupServer serves as our "fake" server where we can add as many handlers to intercept requests. Component Lets create a component for the purpose of our test. Here, I will be making use of the App.js file. My code will look like this: ` All we are doing is fetching some data from the URL when the component mounts and saving the data in our state to display them. And we are using the jsonplacehoder url to fetch posts. Test the component We will create a test file named App.spec.js with this contents ` We imported the component we want to test with: the whatwg-fetch to prevent us with the possible error we talked about. Then, we imported our server. There are few methods above: - beforeAll: This runs before all tests are executed. - afterAll: The opposite of beforeAll. - afterEach: As the name implies, it runs after each test. - resetHandler: It is a useful clean up mechanism between multiple test suites that leverage runtime request handlers. If you added another handler during a test, this resetHandler will remove that handler so that the next test will not know about it. You can see an example of reset handler. Though, in our code example, we didn't need it. But its important to know we have such control and power over what we want to do. So, in summary before all listen to the server for any request, after all close the server and after each test reset handler. On app render there is an API call, but our server will intercept it, so at first the loading text will exist. Then after, it won't. Will it work without intercepting? Yes it will. So, why do all of this? - Anything could happen to the API server, so you don't want you app test to fail. - The data could change, and we don't want a situation where the test fails because of data changes. Conclusion We have created a repo that you can test with in case you have issues following along. Please feel free to let us know what you think as we look forward to building a stronger community by sharing knowledge....

Transforming Auth in an AI World with Rod Boothby

In today's digital landscape, the need for secure identity verification has become paramount. With the increasing risks of personal data exposure and the rise of sophisticated cyber threats aided by Artificial Intelligence, it is crucial to adopt robust verification processes to protect individuals and organizations alike. In a recent discussion with Rod Boothby, CEO of ID Partner Systems, the significance of trusted institutions for identity verification was emphasized, particularly the efficiency of bank-based ID verification over traditional methods. One of the key takeaways from the conversation was the importance of continuous authentication. As technology advances, so do the methods employed by cybercriminals. Deepfake technology, for instance, poses a significant threat to identity verification systems. To combat this, tighter security measures and continuous authentication are essential. By constantly verifying and validating user identities, organizations can stay one step ahead of potential fraudsters. Rod Boothby also highlighted the need for a developer-focused approach to identity verification. By providing developers with the tools and resources they need, companies like ID Partner Systems aim to streamline the verification process and enhance security. This approach not only ensures a more efficient experience for users but also allows for the integration of behavioral biometrics, which can further strengthen the verification process.
