This library provides an implementation of the [Contentful sync API](https://github.com/contentful/contentful.js/) for [redux](https://redux.js.org/) and [reselect](https://github.com/reactjs/reselect). `contentful-redux` handles the complete synchronization workflow (including cyclic link resolution, localization, and incremental syncing) and lets you consume your contents from Contentful as easy-to-use selectors.

If you are not already familiar with redux (and reselect), you should familiarize yourself with those first before trying to integrate contentful-redux into your project.

## Installation
`contentful-redux` is provided as a collection of CommonJS modules, which can be installed using npm:
```
npm install --save contentful@5 contentful-redux
```
or using yarn:
```
yarn add contentful@5 contentful-redux
```

## Usage

1. Setup contentful-redux (`contentful.js`):
```javascript
import { createClient } from 'contentful';
import contentfulRedux from 'contentfulRedux';

export const { actions, reducer, middleware, selectors } = contentfulRedux({
createClient,
space: 'YOUR_SPACE_ID',
accessToken: 'YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN',
stateSelector: state => state.contentful
});
```

2. Include the contentful reducer in your reducer:
```javascript
import { combineReducers } from 'redux';
import { reducer as contentful } from './contentful';

export const reducer = combineReducers({
contentful,
// your other reducers
});
```

3. Include the contentful middleware in your redux store configuration:
```javascript
import { applyMiddleware, createStore } from 'redux';
import { middleware as contentful } from './contentful';

export const configureStore = () => {
return createStore(reducer, null, applyMiddleware(contentful));
};
```

4. Derive your reselect selectors from the base selectors provided by contentful-redux:
```javascript
import { createSelector } from 'reselect';
import { selectors } from './contentful';

export const myModelEntities = createSelector(
selectors.entries, selectors.contentTypes,
(entries, contentTypes) => entries.filter(each => each.__contentType__ === contentTypes.myModel)
);
```

5. Dispatch a sync action whenever you want:
```javascript
import { actions } from './contentful';
dispatch(actions.sync());
```
