Chris Tate 3201854481 external store adapter for state management (#139)
* external store adapter for state management

Introduces a `StateStore` interface that lets users plug in their own state management (Redux, Zustand, XState, etc.) instead of being locked into the internal `useState`-based store.

- Added `StateStore` interface and `createStateStore()` factory to `@json-render/core`
- `StateProvider`, `JSONUIProvider`, and `createRenderer` now accept an optional `store` prop for controlled mode
- When `store` is provided, it becomes the single source of truth (`initialState`/`onStateChange` are ignored)
- When `store` is omitted, everything works exactly as before (fully backward compatible)
- Applied across all platform packages: react, react-native, react-pdf

@json-render/redux

Redux adapter for json-render's StateStore interface. Wire a Redux store (or Redux Toolkit slice) as the state backend for json-render.

Installation

npm install @json-render/redux @json-render/core @json-render/react redux
# or with Redux Toolkit (recommended):
npm install @json-render/redux @json-render/core @json-render/react @reduxjs/toolkit

Usage

import { configureStore, createSlice } from "@reduxjs/toolkit";
import { reduxStateStore } from "@json-render/redux";
import { StateProvider } from "@json-render/react";

// 1. Define a slice for json-render state
const uiSlice = createSlice({
  name: "ui",
  initialState: { count: 0 } as Record<string, unknown>,
  reducers: {
    replaceUiState: (_state, action) => action.payload,
  },
});

// 2. Create the Redux store
const reduxStore = configureStore({
  reducer: { ui: uiSlice.reducer },
});

// 3. Create the json-render StateStore adapter
const store = reduxStateStore({
  store: reduxStore,
  selector: (state) => state.ui,
  dispatch: (next, s) => s.dispatch(uiSlice.actions.replaceUiState(next)),
});

// 4. Use it
<StateProvider store={store}>
  {/* json-render reads/writes go through Redux */}
</StateProvider>

API

reduxStateStore(options)

Creates a StateStore backed by a Redux store.

Options

Option Type Required Description
store Store Yes The Redux store instance
selector (state) => StateModel Yes Select the json-render slice from the Redux state tree. For a simple store where the entire state is the model, use (s) => s.
dispatch (nextState, store) => void Yes Dispatch an action that replaces the selected slice with the next state

The dispatch callback receives the full next state model and the Redux store, so you can dispatch any action shape your reducers expect.
