Sample State

[xnanodax]

Sample State

• State shape is flat!
• State's keys are camelCased
• All keys within the values in the state are accessible in the schema (Ex: if you create a img_url key in the state, make sure your database also has a column that contains an img_url)
• Correctly formatted
  • Sample state is rendered with 3 back ticks before and after. This will display the state as a code block instead of a giant line of text
  • Top level slices
    • entities
    • session
    • errors (here or in ui)
    • ui (if needed)
  • Should NOT have nested slices, aka comments inside of posts
    • Some info from other tables is ok, for instance:
      • the author username and imageurl for a post. basically any info that the user can't change
      • like count and a boolean on whether the user likes the post instead of a likes slice

Comments:

• In your user slice of state, you may just want to record who a user follows instead of the photo ids they have liked.
• You may want to reference comment ids on the photos slice of state. it'll be easier to iterate through that array instead of searching for comments that have a specific image id.

Initial Proposal for this page has been reviewed.

Added comment Ids to the photo slice of state. I also added followers to the user slice of state - can we discuss this one later today, so have a better understanding of what you mean?

[xnanodax]

Yes, we can! I think the current state has a user that is following themselves. Is this a function in Instagram?

[bergieboy]

lol no, I was quickly throwing in identical arrays. sry.

reminder!

• Sample followers in user's slice of state.
• Sample users' likes in photos slice of state.

Awesome!
