Support files for creating Flux applications with React.

See facebook/flux for a good Dispatcher to use as well.

Creating Stores

To create stores, have them use the BaseStore to setup common methods stores need.

UserStore.js

var BaseStore = require('./BaseStore');
var merge = require('react/lib/merge');

var UserStore = Object.create(merge(BaseStore, {
    getFullName: function() {
        ...
    }
}));

UserStore.dispatchToken = AppDispatcher.register(function(payload) {
    ...
});

module.exports = UserStore;

Listening for Store Changes

Use the StoreListener to listen for changes. Components must define a getStateFromStores() to be called when the state has been updated.

Component.jsx

var React = require('react'),
    StoreListener = require('../stores/StoreListener'),
    UserStore = require('../stores/UserStore');

var Component = React.createClass({
    mixins: [
        StoreListener(UserStore)
    ],
    displayName: 'Component',

    getStateFromStores: function() {
        return {
            fullName: UserStore.getFullName()
        };
    },

    ...

});

module.exports = Component;
