redux-db provides a normalized [redux](http://redux.js.org) store and easy object management.

## Why

Having a normalized state is a good strategy if your data is nested in different ways. The redux documentation has a nice explanation [here](http://redux.js.org/docs/recipes/reducers/NormalizingStateShape.html).

## How

```javascript
import db from "./schema";
export const dbReducer = db.combineReducers(
(session, action) => {
const { BlogPost, Comment, User } = session;
switch (action.type) {
case "POSTS_FETCH_DONE":
case "POST_FETCH_DONE":
case "POST_UPDATE":
case "POST_INSERT":
// all these actions may be handled using just one statement.
// the upsert method accepts both single objects and arrays.
// the payload is automatically normalized and related tables are also updated.
BlogPost.upsert(action.payload);
break;
case "POST_DELETE": {
const { id } = action.payload;
const post = BlogPost.get(id);
post.comments.delete(); // Could be skipped if cascading deletes are defined.
post.delete();
// or just, BlogPost.delete( id );
break;
}
case "COMMENT_UPDATE":
case "COMMENT_INSERT": {
// assuming payload contains {id,post,author}
const { post } = action.payload;
BlogPost.get(post).comments.add(action.payload);
// or just, Comment.upsert(action.payload);
break;
}
case "COMMENT_DELETE": {
const { id } = action.payload;
Comment.delete(id);
break;
}
}
}
);
```

## Dependencies

## Performance & size

redux-db uses internal indexes to speed up lookups and is quite fast at the current state. However, optimizing performance and build size is a high priority forward. Current size is small, only ~5K minified and gzipped.

## Credits

This project is inspired by libraries such as [normalizr](https://www.npmjs.com/package/normalizr) and [redux-orm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/redux-orm). redux-db is however a complete rewrite and only lends it's basic consepts.
