More from reactive/data-client
data-client-schema
Model data with @data-client schemas (Entity, EntityMixin, Collection, Union, Query, Values, All, Invalidate, Lazy, Scalar) for atomic, consistent, referentially-equal async data via normalization, identity-based caching, and a single source of truth. Use when defining or editing pk, static schema, resource()/RestEndpoint schema, mutable lists/maps (push/unshift/assign/remove/move), polymorphic/discriminated types, memoized selectors / derived data, partial/supplementary entities, relational/nested/joined data, optimistic updates, or cache invalidation across @data-client/rest, /endpoint, /graphql, or /normalizr. Apply proactively when discussing data models, remote data shape, caching, normalization, identity, joins, polymorphism, mutable collections, or store consistency.
34data-client-rest
Define REST APIs with @data-client/rest - resource(), RestEndpoint, CRUD (GET/POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE), HTTP fetch, normalize, cache, urlPrefix, path-to-regexp parameters, searchParams, pagination, extend(), auth/headers, optimistic updates, polling, file download, blob, parseResponse. Use when defining or modifying network endpoints, REST resources, or the HTTP layer.
33data-client-rest-setup
Set up and migrate to @data-client/rest for REST APIs. Detects existing HTTP patterns (axios, fetch, ky, superagent, got) and migrates them. Creates custom RestEndpoint base class with common behaviors. Use when adopting @data-client/rest in a new or existing project.
33data-client-manager
Implement @data-client Managers for global/background side effects - websocket, SSE, polling, real-time updates, subscriptions, logging, analytics, middleware, intercepting Controller actions, DataProvider managers prop, redux-style action handling. Use when adding cross-cutting store behavior, reacting to dispatched actions, or handling external event streams.
32data-client-setup
Install and set up @data-client/react or @data-client/vue in a project. Detects project type (NextJS, Expo, React Native, Vue, plain React) and protocol (REST, GraphQL, custom), then hands off to protocol-specific setup skills.
31data-client-react-testing
Test @data-client/react with renderDataHook and mountDataClient - jest unit tests, fixtures, interceptors, MockResolver, mock responses, nock HTTP mocking, fake timers for polling/subscription tests, DataProvider test setup, hook and component testing. Use when writing or debugging tests for hooks, components, or resources built on @data-client/react.
