Notes on Offline Events

OfflineWeb

An offline storage extension that records analytics events in indexedDB when offline, and resyncs those events when back online. The extension adds a timestamp to each saved extension under the timeSaved key.
Like all offline storage extensions, this extension expects that you're already storing a connectivity flag in your app's state.
Installation
npm install --save @redux-beacon/offline-web
Import
import OfflineWeb from '@redux-beacon/offline-web';
Usage
Step 1
The first step is to track the connection status in your state. Here's an example of how you would do so using browser's in-built offline and online events:
const initialState = {
  isConnected: true, // by default the app is assumed to have a connection
}
​
function reducer(state = initialState, action) {
  switch (action.type) {
    case 'UPDATE_CONNECTIVITY' {
      return Object.assign({}, state, { isConnected: action.payload });
    }
    ...
    default:
      return state;
  }
}
​
window.addEventListener('offline', () => {
  store.dispatch({
    type: 'UPDATE_CONNECTIVITY',
    payload: false,
  });
});
​
window.addEventListener('online', () => {
  store.dispatch({
    type: 'UPDATE_CONNECTIVITY',
    payload: true,
  });
});
Step 2
Create a connectivity selector that accepts the state, and returns your app's connection status:
const isConnected = state => state.isConnected;
The connectivity selector should return a boolean:
true when the app is online
false when the app is offline
Step 3
Initialize the extension and provide it when creating a middleware or meta reducer:
import OfflineWeb from '@redux-beacon/offline-web';
​
// Pass the connectivity selector from Step 2 as the first parameter
const offlineStorage = offlineWeb(isConnected);
​
// Create or import an events map and target.
// See "getting started" pages for instructions.
​
const middleware = createMiddleware(eventsMap, target, { offlineStorage });
const metaReducer = createMetaReducer(eventsMap, target, { offlineStorage });
Now, whenever your app loses connection, your analytics events will now be saved offline until it regains its connection.
