Thanks to @hirbod i randomly landed on this tweet.
we should use tanstack-query with query-async-storage-persister

as a dev,
I can improve my knowledge of offline first app,
so that I can use @tanstack/query-async-storage-persister

  • Update StarshipCard > handleBuy to return <Text>payment in process</Text>
  • Udpate data-02 challenge to use only Netinfo
  • Create a new data-03 challenge with the instruction for query-async-storage-persister
  • for the api endpoint we could use a service like https://mockaroo.com/ to store the StarshipCard data

Let me give you the whole thing. And you have to use the experimental one, because this is what we need for RN.

import { MMKV } from 'react-native-mmkv'
import { experimental_createPersister } from '@tanstack/react-query-persist-client'
import Constants from 'expo-constants'
import * as Updates from 'expo-updates'

export const storage = new MMKV({
  id: 'yourawesomekey',
})

type ClientStorage = {
  setItem: typeof storage.set
  getItem: (key: string) => string | null
  removeItem: typeof storage.delete
}

export const ReactQueryMMKVPersisterStorage: ClientStorage = {
  setItem: (key, value) => {
    storage.set(key, value)
  },
  getItem: (key) => {
    const value = storage.getString(key)
    return value === undefined ? null : value
  },
  removeItem: (key) => {
    storage.delete(key)
  },
}

export const persister = experimental_createPersister({
  maxAge: 1000 * 60 * 60 * 12, // 12 hours
  storage: ReactQueryMMKVPersisterStorage,
  prefix: 'my-awesome-key',
  buster: `${Constants.manifest2?.runtimeVersion}_${Updates.updateId}`,
})

Then you just pass it globally to the queryClient defaults as persister and you also need to pass it individually for every infiniteQuery, as the global setting does not work for infiniteQueries. Types also broken, but it works.

One thing to mention: the experimental persister only detects and deletes old cache entries when the keys are accessed . This can lead to a lot of stale persisted data. I haven't finished it yet, but I am planning to add a tiny storage lookup on boot and remove data that is older than (3)/n days or something like that.

The issue is known and reported by me but unsolved for now
