SwiftUI-Todo-Redux

SwiftUI Todo Redux app example using a React/Redux monolithic state store with flux like dispatch/reduce actions

Background

SwiftUI based app using a centralized, 'monolithic' AppState() which binds to the UI using the Combine framework and a PassthroughSubject method. This architecture is based on the React/Redux pattern and has a few key benefits:

  1. Global app state is maintained in single global struct, let state = AppState()
  2. Testing and Previewing of individual views can then be isolated with local test states, eg., a local debug call to environmentObject(sampleStore) can be used for UI Previews anywhere in the app
  3. Isolating Actions from State allows for cleaner synchronous behavior, eg., handle both server based calls and local UI-only actions in the same method or flow
  4. Chnages to state are Reduced within a simple state machine method which can be easily tested

File Structure

The structure of the app follows a simple pattern of MVS: Models, Views and State. Models contain all the relevant state, separated into relevant gropus such as Tasks, Users, Authorization, etc. The models directory contains model definitions, as well as codecs and backing store (ie., API Services) for isolated testing of the models and their propoer storage. The states directory contains a combination of global app state, the sub-states or flux describiing the relevant groups (eg., Task, User), actions which the user initiates (eg., TaskActions or UserActions) and then trigger asynchronous server-based or synchronous actions. The result of the actions are then reduced (eg., TaskStateReducer or UserStateReducer) to subsequently modify the global app state.

The AppState structure holds referenes to the group states (ie., Tasks and User lists), as well as acts as a central dispatch point for both actions and handling any state updates via the Combine framework.

Finally, all UI Views are maintained within their respective hierarchy, with a Home or Root view driving all app navigation.
