NGRX; How to apply filter on adapter data - ngrx

Question

I have this piece of code which I want to apply a filter on. The state uses EntityState and Adapter.
getAllObjects needs to get categories with parentId of 13 and the getAllTextures gets the remaining.
import { Category } from './models/category';
import { createFeatureSelector, createSelector } from '#ngrx/store';
import { AppState } from './app-state';
import { EntityState } from '#ngrx/entity';
import * as fromCategory from './services/reducers/category.reducer';
export interface CategoriesState extends EntityState<Category> {
allCategoriesLoaded: boolean;
}
const getCategories = createFeatureSelector<AppState, CategoriesState>('categories');
export const getAllObjects = createSelector(getCategories, fromCategory.selectAll); // filter(x => x.parentId === 13)
export const getAllTextures = createSelector(getCategories, fromCategory.selectAll); // filter(x => x.parentId !== 13)
export const getAllCategoriesLoaded = createSelector(getCategories, state => state.allCategoriesLoaded);
and this is the reducer:
import {createReducer, on, State} from '#ngrx/store';
import { EntityState, EntityAdapter, createEntityAdapter } from '#ngrx/entity';
import { Category } from 'src/app/models/category';
import { RefreshCategoryDone, CategoryActionTypes, CategoryActions } from '../actions/category.actions';
import { CategoriesState } from 'src/app/categories-state';
export const categoryAdapter: EntityAdapter<Category> = createEntityAdapter<Category>();
export const initialState: CategoriesState = categoryAdapter.getInitialState({allCategoriesLoaded : false});
export function categoryReducer(state = initialState, action: CategoryActions) {
switch (action.type) {
case CategoryActionTypes.LoadCategories:
categoryAdapter.addMany(action.payload, state);
break;
default:
return state;
}
}
export const {
selectAll,
selectEntities,
selectIds,
selectTotal
} = categoryAdapter.getSelectors();
Is it possible to select data from adapter by condition? If so, how?

Answer 1

Here's a few simple steps to set this up:
1) add a 'selectedId' property to your State and set the initial state to null
export interface State extends EntityState<Category> {
selectedCategoryId: string | null;
}
export const adapter: EntityAdapter<Category> = createEntityAdapter<Category>({
selectId: (category: Category) => category.id,
sortComparer: false,
});
export const initialState: State = adapter.getInitialState({
selectedCategoryId: null,
});
2) Add actions to set the selected ID
// in the reducer, the action does following:
on(ViewReportPageActions.selectCategory, (state, { id }) => ({
...state,
selectedCategoryId: id,
})),
3) add a selector for the selectedId in the reducer
export const getSelectedId = (state: State) => state.selectedReportId;
4) add a selector at your FeatureSelector file, this is where you add the filter
// you've implemented another name for you Feature Selector here
export const getDataState = createFeatureSelector<State, DataState>('data');
export const getCategoryEntitiesState = createSelector(
getDataState,
state => state.categories
);
export const getSelectedCategoryId = createSelector(
getCategoryEntitiesState,
fromCategorys.getSelectedId
);
export const getSelectedCategory = createSelector(
getCategoryEntities,
getSelectedCategoryId,
(entities, selectedId) => {
if (selectedId != "0"){
return selectedId && entities[selectedId];
} else {
//this is what I use, when I want to create a new category.
//I set the selectedId to 0 which indicitates I'm creating a new one
return selectedId && generateMockCategory();
}
}
);
export const getNotSelectedCategory = createSelector(
getCategoryEntities,
getSelectedCategoryId,
(entities, selectedId) => {
// You'll have to test this...
return entities.filter(e => e.id !== selectedID);
}
);

Found the answer:
import { Category } from './models/category';
import { createFeatureSelector, createSelector } from '#ngrx/store';
import { AppState } from './app-state';
import { EntityState } from '#ngrx/entity';
import * as fromCategory from './services/reducers/category.reducer';
import { map } from 'rxjs/operators';
export interface CategoriesState extends EntityState<Category> {
allCategoriesLoaded: boolean;
}
const getCategories = createFeatureSelector<AppState, CategoriesState>('categories');
export const getAllCategories = createSelector(getCategories, fromCategory.selectAll);
export const getAllObjects = createSelector(getAllCategories, (categories) => categories.filter(x => x.categoryId !== 13));
export const getAllTextures = createSelector(getAllCategories, (categories) => categories.filter(x => x.categoryId === 13));
export const getAllCategoriesLoaded = createSelector(getCategories, state => state.allCategoriesLoaded);
