Why Suspense Will Be a Game Changer - Dumbest Cache Provider Example
// Yep, we're doing it, just storing the data on a plain old object
let data = {};
export default (fetchFn, getKey = (x) => x) => (args) => {
// Get unique identifier from arguments
const key = getKey(args);
if (data[key]) {
if (typeof data[key].then === 'function') {
// Fetch has already been triggered
// So throw the stored promise instead of triggering another request
throw data[key];
}
// Return already loaded data!
return data[key];
}
// Nothing loaded yet, so trigger the given fetch method
// with the given arguments and throw the resulting promise
const promise = fetchFn(args).then((response) => {
// Store response in cache, so on re-render its available
data[key] = response;
return response;
});
// Throw promise to suspend rendering
data[key] = promise;
throw promise;
};
