Features

• Added a new deriveStoresFromProps static lifecycle method. Related docs is here.

Docs

• Documented optional update batching.

Fixes

• Fixed not copying all props from function components as static props to view components.

Fixes

• Fixed on error when using static getter React specific properties (like defaultProps) on view components.

Breaking changes

• The auto bind feature got removed from both store and view.

Features

• Added integration for an experimental debugger. You can test this out with view(Comp, { devtool: console.log }), the actual visual debugger is still in the making.

Fixes

• Added reactivity support for in operations.
• Fixed reactivity in case of mutating a sparse array in an unused index, which is smaller then its current length.

Fixes

• Fixed vanilla setState behavior. It is still not advised to use setState, use local stores instead.

Other Changes

• Removed dynamic type validations. Use TypeScript, if you need type safety.

Fixes

• Expose TypeScript type definitions on npm

Features

• Added TypeScript type definitions

Fixes

• Removed package-lock

Breaking changes

• Renamed easyComp to view.
• Renamed easyState to store.
• Removed the observable this.store on easyComp components. Use this.store = store({}) instead to create local observable stores yourself.

Features

• Uses setState instead of forceUpdate behind the scenes. This delegates render scheduling to React, which makes lifecycle hooks more predictable and supports React Fiber’s priority based render scheduling.

Improvements

• Improved the build process

Breaking changes

• Rename component.state to component.store.

Fixes

• Fixed CommonJS build

Fixes

• Fix a critical bug with the build process.

Breaking changes

• Easy State has two named exports (easyComp and easyStore) instead of the default exported easyState. (easyState became easyComp).

• Defining your own componentShouldUpdate will throw on error from now on. It should not be defined, as it is already optimized by easyComp.

Features

• Added easyStore for global state management.

Fixes

• Fixed the CommonJS module build.

Fixes

• Fixed a bug where child component's wouldn't rerender on alternating shallow and deep prop mutations.
• Fixed shouldComponentUpdate being always overwritten. From now user defined shouldComponentUpdate is prioritized over Easy State's internal one, but it is discouraged (as the internal one is pretty optimal.)

Fixes

Changed shouldComponentUpdate to update on shallow prop changes.

Performance

Removed unnecessary cleanup logic. Explicit unobserve is only necessary when the state and the component may live without each other.
