API Reference - @liveblocks/redux

@liveblocks/redux provides you with Redux bindings for our realtime collaboration APIs, built on top of WebSockets. Read our getting started guides to learn more.

Enhancer

Enhancer that lets you connect a Redux state to Liveblocks Presence and Storage features.

import { liveblocksEnhancer } from "@liveblocks/redux";import { configureStore } from "@reduxjs/toolkit";
const store = configureStore({  reducer: /* reducer */,  enhancers: (getDefaultEnhancers) =>    getDefaultEnhancers().concat(      liveblocksEnhancer({      client,      storageMapping: {},      presenceMapping: {},    })  ),});

client

See different authentication methods in the createClient method.

import { createClient } from "@liveblocks/client";import { liveblocksEnhancer } from "@liveblocks/redux";
const client = createClient({  authEndpoint: "/api/liveblocks-auth",});
const store = configureStore({  reducer: /* reducer */,  enhancers: (getDefaultEnhancers) =>    getDefaultEnhancers().concat(liveblocksEnhancer({ client })),});

presenceMapping

Mapping used to synchronize a part of your Redux state with one Liveblocks room presence.

import { liveblocksEnhancer } from "@liveblocks/redux";
const initialState = {  cursor: { x: 0, y: 0 },};
const slice = createSlice({  name: "state",  initialState,  reducers: {    /* reducers */  },});
const store = configureStore({  reducer: slice.reducer,  enhancers: (getDefaultEnhancers) =>    getDefaultEnhancers().concat(      liveblocksEnhancer({        client,        presenceMapping: { cursor: true },      })    ),});

storageMapping

Mapping used to synchronize a part of your Redux state with one Liveblocks Room storage.

import { liveblocksEnhancer } from "@liveblocks/redux";
const initialState = {  scientist: { name: "" },};
const slice = createSlice({  name: "state",  initialState,  reducers: {    /* reducers */  },});
const store = configureStore({  reducer: slice.reducer,  enhancers: (getDefaultEnhancers) =>    getDefaultEnhancers().concat(      liveblocksEnhancer({        client,        storageMapping: { scientist: true },      })    ),});

Actions

ENTER

Dispatch enterRoom action to enter a room and start sync it with Redux state.

roomId: The room’s ID.

import { actions } from "@liveblocks/redux";import { useDispatch, useSelector } from "react-redux";
const dispatch = useDispatch();
dispatch(actions.enterRoom("roomId"));

LEAVE

Dispatch leaveRoom action to leave the current room and stop syncing it with Redux state.

import { actions } from "@liveblocks/redux";import { useDispatch, useSelector } from "react-redux";
const dispatch = useDispatch();
dispatch(actions.leaveRoom());

state.liveblocks

Liveblocks extra state attached by the enhancer.

others

Other users in the room. Empty when no room is currently synced.

const others = useSelector((state) => state.liveblocks.others);

isStorageLoading

Whether the room storage is currently loading.

const connection = useSelector((state) => state.liveblocks.isStorageLoading);

status

Gets the current WebSocket connection status of the room.

const {  liveblocks: { status },} = useStore();

The possible value are: initial, connecting, connected, reconnecting, or disconnected.
