Family

atomFamily

Ref: https://github.com/pmndrs/jotai/issues/23

Usage

atomFamily(initializeAtom, areEqual): (param) => Atom

This will create a function that takes param and returns an atom. If the atom has already been created, it will be returned from the cache. initializeAtom is a function that can return any kind of atom (atom(), atomWithDefault(), ...). Note that the areEqual argument is optional and compares if two params are equal (defaults to Object.is).

To reproduce behavior similar to Recoil's atomFamily/selectorFamily, specify a deepEqual function to areEqual. For example:

import { atom } from 'jotai'
import { atomFamily } from 'jotai/utils'
import deepEqual from 'fast-deep-equal'
const fooFamily = atomFamily((param) => atom(param), deepEqual)

TypeScript

The atom family types will be inferred from initializeAtom. Here's a typical usage with a primitive atom.

import type { PrimitiveAtom } from 'jotai'
/**
* here the atom(id) returns a PrimitiveAtom<number>
* and PrimitiveAtom<number> is a WritableAtom<number, SetStateAction<number>>
*/
const myFamily = atomFamily((id: number) => atom(id)).

You can explicitly declare the type of parameter, value, and atom's setState function using TypeScript generics.

atomFamily<Param, Value, Update>(initializeAtom: (param: Param) => WritableAtom<Value, Update>, areEqual?: (a: Param, b: Param) => boolean)
atomFamily<Param, Value>(initializeAtom: (param: Param) => Atom<Value>, areEqual?: (a: Param, b: Param) => boolean)

If you want to explicitly declare the atomFamily for a primitive atom, you need to use SetStateAction.

type SetStateAction<Value> = Value | ((prev: Value) => Value)
const myFamily = atomFamily<number, number, SetStateAction<number>>(
(id: number) => atom(id),
)

Caveat: Memory Leaks

Internally, atomFamily is just a Map whose key is a param and whose value is an atom config. Unless you explicitly remove unused params, this leads to memory leaks. This is crucial if you use infinite number of params.

There are two ways to remove params.

  • myFamily.remove(param) allows you to remove a specific param.
  • myFamily.setShouldRemove(shouldRemove) is to register shouldRemove function which runs immediately and when you are to get an atom from a cache.
    • shouldRemove is a function that takes two arguments createdAt in milliseconds and param, and returns a boolean value.
    • setting null will remove the previously registered function.

Examples

import { atom } from 'jotai'
import { atomFamily } from 'jotai/utils'
const todoFamily = atomFamily((name) => atom(name))
todoFamily('foo')
// this will create a new atom('foo'), or return the one if already created
import { atom } from 'jotai'
import { atomFamily } from 'jotai/utils'
const todoFamily = atomFamily((name) =>
atom(
(get) => get(todosAtom)[name],
(get, set, arg) => {
const prev = get(todosAtom)
set(todosAtom, { ...prev, [name]: { ...prev[name], ...arg } })
},
),
)
import { atom } from 'jotai'
import { atomFamily } from 'jotai/utils'
const todoFamily = atomFamily(
({ id, name }) => atom({ name }),
(a, b) => a.id === b.id,
)
