ui-common-library

A collection of components, stores and other javascript code for use in holo happ uis.

This library includes a package.json that is only used for testing. You do NOT need to install any additional libraries to use the components in this project.

Stores

src/stores contains a number of pinia stores (overview of pinia) for making connections, app info calls and zome calls in Holo and hybrid holo/holochain apps.

The hybrid case is the most complete, so I'll describe it here.

At a high level, you use a clientStore to provide an agnostic interface for your ui, which

  • tells your ui if your connection is ready to make zome calls
  • lets you make zome calls
  • lets you make app info calls

When creating your clientStore you pass it an interfaceStore, which is either a holoStore or a holochainStore (depending on which context your in), which actually provides implementations of the above functionality. These two stores share a common interface.

useClientStore.js, useHoloStore.js, and useHolochainStore.js each export a factory function, (makeUse[X]Store) that take extra configuration args.

useSignalStore

signalStore allows you to subscribe to signals from your holo or holochain connection. Pass a callback to the store to be called whenever you get a signal from either holo or holochain

useSignalStore().addCallback(signal => console.log('got signal', signal))

Note: signals are of the form

type Signal = {
  // The payload of the signal as provided by the DNA
  data: unknown
  // The hash of the DNA that emitted this signal
  // (Helpful to disambiguate if the hApp has multiple DNAs)
  dna_hash: Uint8Array
}

useIsLoadingStore

isLoadingStore allows you to check the loading status of a particular zome_name, fn_name pair. calling

useIsLoadingStore().isLoading({ zome_name, fn_name })

will return a bool

Example

import makeUseClientStore from "@uicommon/stores/useClientStore"
import makeUseHolochainStore from "@uicommon/stores/useHolochainStore"
import useSignalStore from "@uicommon/stores/useSignalStore"
import makeUseHoloStore from "@uicommon/stores/useHoloStore"
import makeUseYourCustomDnaStore from "./useYourCustomDnaStore"

// This is just so that we have a consistent pattern of importing stores from src/stores, not individual store files
export const useUiStore = useUiStoreRaw

export const useHolochainStore = makeUseHolochainStore({
  installed_app_id: 'your-local-installed-app-id',
  app_ws_url: 'http://localhost:8888', // path to your local hc app websocket
})

const CHAPERONE_URL = import.meta.env.VITE_APP_CHAPERONE_SERVER_URL
  ? import.meta.env.VITE_APP_CHAPERONE_SERVER_URL
  : "http://localhost:24274"

export const useHoloStore = makeUseHoloStore({
  // Connection args is passed directly to WebSdkApi.connect, see here for details: https://github.com/Holo-Host/web-sdk
  connectionArgs: {
    chaperoneUrl: CHAPERONE_URL,
  }
})

export const useClientStore = makeUseClientStore({
  useInterfaceStore: IS_HOSTED ? useHoloStore : useHolochainStore,
  onInit: () => {
    useSignalStore().addCallback(signal => useYourCustomDnaStore().handleSignal(signal))
  }
 })

export const useYourCustomDnaStore = makeUseYourCustomDnaStore({ 
  useClientStore
})

From here, you can check if the client store is ready to make zome calls, and make zome calls and app info calls

const clientStore = useClientStore()

if (clientStore.isReady) {
  console.log(await clientStore.appInfo()) 
  clientStore.callZome({
    role_name: 'your-dna-role',
    zome_name: 'a-zome',
    fn_name: 'a-fn',
    payload: null
  })
}
