## 📦 Install

To install `@ngxs-labs/select-snapshot`, run the following command:

```sh
$ npm install @ngxs-labs/select-snapshot
# Or if you're using yarn
$ yarn add @ngxs-labs/select-snapshot
# Or if you're using pnpm
$ pnpm install @ngxs-labs/select-snapshot
```

## 🔨 Usage

Import the `NgxsSelectSnapshotModule` into your root application module:

```typescript
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { NgxsModule } from '@ngxs/store';
import { NgxsSelectSnapshotModule } from '@ngxs-labs/select-snapshot';

@NgModule({
imports: [NgxsModule.forRoot(states), NgxsSelectSnapshotModule.forRoot()],
})
export class AppModule {}
```

## API

`@ngxs-labs/select-snapshot` exposes `@SelectSnapshot` and `@ViewSelectSnapshot` decorators, they might be used to decorate class properties.

### SelectSnapshot

`@SelectSnapshot` decorator should be used similarly to the `@Select` decorator. It will decorate the property to always return the latest selected value, whereas `@Select` decorates properties to return observable. Given the following example:

```ts
import { SelectSnapshot } from '@ngxs-labs/select-snapshot';

@Injectable()
export class TokenInterceptor {
@SelectSnapshot(AuthState.token) token: string | null;

intercept(req: HttpRequest, next: HttpHandler): Observable> {
if (this.token) {
req = req.clone({
setHeaders: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.token}`,
},
});
}

return next.handle(req);
}
}
```

We don't have to inject the `Store` and call the `selectSnapshot`.

Behind the scenes, `@SelectSnapshot` sets up a getter that calls `store.selectSnapshot` with the provided selector on each access.
In the above example, it roughly equates to setting up this property getter:

```ts
get token(): string | null {
// ... inject `Store` in variable `store`
return store.selectSnapshot(AuthState.token);
}
```

### ViewSelectSnapshot

`@ViewSelectSnapshot` is a decorator that should decorate class properties that are used in templates (e.g. _renderable_ or passed as _bindings_). Given the following example:

```ts
@Component({
selector: 'app-progress',
template: `




`,
changeDetection: ChangeDetectionStrategy.OnPush,
})
export class ProgressComponent {
// 🚫 Do not use `SelectSnapshot` since `progress` is used in the template.
@SelectSnapshot(ProgressState.getProgress) progress: number;
}
```

The `@ViewSelectSnapshot` decorator will force the template to be updated whenever the `progress` property is changed on the state:

```ts
@Component({
selector: 'app-progress',
template: `




`,
changeDetection: ChangeDetectionStrategy.OnPush,
})
export class ProgressComponent {
// ✔️ Our view will be checked and updated.
@ViewSelectSnapshot(ProgressState.getProgress) progress: number;
}
```

The decorator internally subscribes to `store.select` with the provided selector and calls `markForCheck()` whenever the state is updated (and the selector emits).

## Summary

We have looked at several examples of using both decorators. Consider to use the `@SelectSnapshot` if decorated properties are not used in templates! Consider to use the `@ViewSelectSnapshot` if decorated properties are used in templates (e.g. _renderable_ or passed as _bindings_).
