Generic <Resource>
Management Hooks in React Query Application
This document explains the common functionalities offered by the custom hook functions provided in your React + React Query application, applicable to managing various resources.
Purpose:
- Facilitate efficient data fetching, creation, deletion, and updates for any resource type using React Query.
- Offer a reusable and type-safe API for interacting with your server's endpoints.
- Simplify common resource management tasks across different components.
Key Features:
- Type-safe: Utilize interfaces (like
<Resource>Type
) for data and request/response structures, ensuring data consistency. - Authentication: Leverage
useAuthenticatedQuery
anduseAuthenticatedMutation
for secure access when necessary. - CRUD operations: Provide functions for fetching (
useGet<Resources>
), creating (useCreate<Resource>
), updating (useUpdate<Resource>
), and deleting (useDelete<Resource>
) resources. - Query invalidation: Allow manual refresh using
useRefresh<Resources>
to update displayed data. - Flexibility: Adaptable to various resources by changing data types and API endpoints.
Provided Hooks:
useGet<Resources>
:- Fetches a paginated list of resources with optional search, sorting, or filtering functionality.
- Uses
useAuthenticatedQuery
for secured access if applicable.
useCreate<Resource>
:- Creates a new resource on the server with provided data.
- Uses
useAuthenticatedMutation
for secured access if applicable.
useDelete<Resource>
:- Deletes a specific resource by its ID.
- Uses
useAuthenticatedMutation
for secured access if applicable.
useUpdate<Resource>
:- Updates an existing resource by its ID with provided data.
- Uses
useAuthenticatedMutation
for secured access if applicable.
useGet<Resource>
:- Fetches a single resource by its ID.
- Uses
useAuthenticatedQuery
for secured access if applicable. - Disabled if no ID is provided.
useRefresh<Resources>
:- Manually refreshes the
useGet<Resources>
query cache.
- Manually refreshes the
Benefits:
- Improved code organization and reusability across components for managing resources.
- Consistent approach to data fetching, manipulation, and caching with React Query.
- Enhanced type safety and maintainability.
Additional Notes:
- Replace
<Resource>Type
with the actual interface name used in your code for specific resources. - Adapt data types and API endpoints based on your resource types and server structure.
- Consider using these hooks in conjunction with React components for displaying and managing resources.
- Explore React Query's documentation for advanced caching and refetching options.
