memoize-state
Caching (aka memoization) is very powerful optimization technique - however it only makes sense when maintaining the cache itself and looking up cached results is cheaper than performing computation itself again. You don't need WASM to speed up JS
Blazing fast usage-tracking based selection and memoization library, which always works....
Read me - How I wrote the world’s fastest memoization library
Reselect? Memoize-one? Most of memoization libraries remembers the parameters you provided, not what you did inside. Sometimes is not easy to achive high cache hit ratio. Sometimes you have to think about how to properly dissolve computation into the memoizable parts.
I don't want to think how to use memoization, I want to use memoization!
Memoize-state is built to memoize more complex situations, even the ones which are faster to recompute, than to deside that recalculation is not needed. Just because one cheap computation can cause a redraw/reflow/recomputation cascade for a whole application.
Lets imagine some complex function.
const fn = memoize(
(number, state, string) => ({result: state[string] + number})
)
let firstValue = fn(1, { value: 1, otherValue : 1 }, 'value'); // first call
firstValue === fn(1, { value: 1, otherValue : 2 }, 'value'); // "nothing" changed
firstValue === fn(1, { value: 1, somethingElse: 3 }, 'value'); // "nothing" changed
firstValue !== fn(2, { value: 1, somethingElse: 3 }, 'value'); // something important changedAll ordinal memoization libraries will drop cache each time, as long state is different each time.
More of it - they will return a unique object each time, as long the function is returning a new object each time.
But not today!
Memoize-state memoizes tracks used state parts, using the same magic, as you can find in MobX or immer.
It will know, that it should react only on some state.value1 change, but not value2. Perfect.
Now you able just to write functions AS YOU WANT. Memoize-state will detect all really used arguments, variables and keys, and then - react only to the right changes.
Implementations
- React-memoize - magic memoization for React, componentWillReceiveProps optimization, selection from context, whole SFC memoization.
- beautiful-react-redux - instant memoization for React-Redux
- why-did-you-update-redux - selector quiality checker
- react-tracked - React Context API made using the same principles.
- your project!
API
memoizeState(function, options)- creates memoized variant of a function.
- Name, length (argument count), and any other own key will be transferred to memoized result
- If argument is an object - memoize will perform
proxyequalcomparison, resulting true, of you did no access any object member - If argument is not an object - memoize will compare values.
- result function will have
cacheStatisticsmethod. JFYI.
Possible options
cacheSize, default 1. The size of the cache.shallowCheck, default true. Perform shallow equal between arguments.equalCheck, default true. Perform deep proxyequal comparision.strictArity, default false. Limit arguments count to the function default.nestedEquality, default true. Keep the object equality for sub-proxies.safe, default false. Activate thesafememoization mode. See below.
MapStateToProps
You know - it should be a pure function, returning the same results for the same arguments.
mapStateToProps, should be strict equal across the different calls
mapStateToProps(state) === mapStateToProps(state)
or, at least, shallow equal
shallowEqual(mapStateToProps(state), mapStateToProps(state)).
Creating good memoization function, using reselect, avoiding side-effects - it could be hard. I know.
Memoize-state was created to solve this case, especially this case.
Key principe
Memoize-state will track the way you USE the state.
const state = {
branch1: {...},
branch2: {someKey1:1, someKey2: 2}
}
const aFunction = (state) => state.branch2.someKey2 && Math.random();
const fastFunction = memoize(aFunction);
After the first launch memoize-state will detect the used parts of a state, and then react only for changes inside them
const result1 = fastFunction(state);
// result1 - some random. 42 for example
const result2 = fastFunction({branch2: {someKey2:2}})
// result2 - the same value! A new state is `proxyequal` to the old
const result3 = fastFunction({branch2: {someKey2:3}})
// result3 - is the NEW, at last. Usage
- Wrap mapStateToProps by
memoize - Choose the memoization options (unsafe by default).
import memoize from 'memoize-state';
const mapStateToProps = memoize((state, props) => {
//....
});Memoized composition
You can use compose(flow, flowRight) to pipe result from one memoized function to another. But better to use flow
! All functions accepts Object as input and return __Object as output.
import {memoizedFlow, memoizedFlowRight, memoizedPipe, memoizedCompose} from 'memoize-state';
// memoizedFlow will merge result with the current input
// thus you can not import and not return all the keys
// and memoization will work
const sequence = memoizedFlow([
({a,b}) => ({sumAB: a+b}),
({a,c}) => ({sumAC: a+c}),
({sumAB, sumAC}) => ({result: sumAB+sumAC})
]);
sequence({a:1, b:1, c:1}) === ({a:1, b:1, c:1, sumAB: 2, sumAC: 2, result: 4})
//----------------
import flow from 'lodash.flow';
// You have to rethrow all the variables you might need in the future
// and memoization will not properly work, as long step2 will be regenerated then you will change b
// as long it depends on sumAB from step1
const sequence = flow([
({a,b, c}) => ({sumAB: a+b, a,c}),
({a,c, sumAB}) => ({sumAC: a+c, sumAB}),
({sumAB, sumAC}) => ({result: sumAB+sumAC})
]);
sequence({a:1, b:1, c:1}) === ({result: 4})memoizedFlowis equal tomemoizedPipe, and applies functions from first to last.memoizedFlowRightis equal tomemoizedCompose, and applies functions from last to right(right).
Additional API
You also could use memoize-state to double check your selectors.
import {shouldBePure} from 'memoize-state';
const mapStateToProps = shouldBePure((state, props) => {
//....
});
// then it will log all situations, when result was not shallow equal to the old one, but should.shouldBePure will deactivate itself in production env. Use shallBePure if you need it always enabled.
You said UNSAFE???
Not all functions could be safely memoized. Just not all of them.
The wrapped function have to be pure.
let cache = 0;
const func = (state) => (cache || cache = state.a);
const memoizedState = memoize(func);
memoizedState({a:1}); // will return 1 AND fill up the cache
memoizedState({a:2}); // will return 1 FROM cache, and dont read anything from state
memoizedState({a:3}); // memoize state saw, that you dont read anything from a state.
// and will ignore __ANY__ changes. __FOREVER__!PS: this would not happened if state.a is a object. Memoize-state will understand the case, when you are returning a part of a state
It's easy to fix - memoize(func, { safe: true }), but func will be called twice to detect internal memoization.
In case of internal memoization safe-memoize will deactivate itself.
Check performed only twice. Once on execution, and once on first cached result. In both cases wrapped function should return the "same" result.
Can I memoize-state memoized-state function?
Yes, you could.
But memoize-state could disable another underlying memoizations libraries.
Warning!
Not everything is simple. Memoize-state works on copies of original object, returning the original object, if you have returned a copy.
That means - if you get an array. sort it and return result - you will return unsorted result.
Input has to be immutable, don't sort it, don't mutate it, don't forget to Array.slice().
but you are the right person to watch over it.
Speed
Uses ES6 Proxy underneath to detect used branches of a state (as MobX).
Removes all the magic from result value.
Should be slower than "manual" __reselect__ors, but faster than anything else.
We have a performance test, according to the results -
- memoize-state is not slower than major competitors, and 10-100x times faster, for the "state" cases.
- lodash.memoize and fast-memoize could not handle big states as input.
- memoize-one should be super fast, but it is not
But the major difference is
- memoize-one are having highest hitratio, than means - it were able to "memoize" most of the cases

The common memoization
Memoize-state is not a best fit for a common case. It is designed to handle
- the complex objects
- limited count of stored cache lines (default: 1)
This is a fibonacci test from - fast-memoize. The test uses different performance measuring tool and numbers differs.

Spread no-op
memoize-state: object spread detected in XXX. Consider refactoring.
Memoize state could not properly work if you "spread" state
const mapStateToProps = ({prop,i,need,...rest}) =>....
//or
const mapStateToProps = (state, props) => ({ ...state, ...props })
//or
const mapState = ({ page, direction, ...state }) => ({
page,
direction,
isLoading: isLoading(state)
})It will assume, that you need ALL the keys, meanwhile - you could not.
Workaround - refactor the code
const mapState = state => ({
page: state.page,
direction: state.direction,
isLoading: isLoading(state)
})See issue for more details
