Replace array item with another one without mutating state

问题

This is how example of my state looks:

const INITIAL_STATE = {
 contents: [ {}, {}, {}, etc.. ],
 meta: {}
}

I need to be able and somehow replace an item inside contents array knowing its index, I have tried:

      return {
        ...state,
        contents: [
          ...state.contents[action.meta.index],
          {
            content_type: 7,
            content_body: {
              album_artwork_url: action.payload.data.album.images[1].url,
              preview_url: action.payload.data.preview_url,
              title: action.payload.data.name,
              subtitle: action.payload.data.artists[0].name,
              spotify_link: action.payload.data.external_urls.spotify
            }
          }
        ]
      }

where action.meta.index is index of array item I want to replace with another contents object, but I believe this just replaces whole array to this one object I'm passing. I also thought of using .splice() but that would just mutate the array?

回答1:

Splice mutate the array you need to use Slice . And you also need to concat the sliced piece .

return Object.assign({}, state,  {
         contents:
          state.contents.slice(0,action.meta.index)
          .concat([{
            content_type: 7,
            content_body: {
              album_artwork_url: action.payload.data.album.images[1].url,
              preview_url: action.payload.data.preview_url,
              title: action.payload.data.name,
              subtitle: action.payload.data.artists[0].name,
              spotify_link: action.payload.data.external_urls.spotify
            }
          }])
          .concat(state.contents.slice(action.meta.index + 1))
  }

Note that Array.prototype.map() (docs) does not mutate the original array so it provides another option:

 const INITIAL_STATE = {
   contents: [ {}, {}, {}, etc.. ],
   meta: {}
 }

 // Assuming this action object design
 {
   type: MY_ACTION,
   data: {
     // new content to replace
   },
   meta: {
     index: /* the array index in state */,
   }
 }

 function myReducer(state = INITIAL_STATE, action) {
   switch (action.type) {
     case MY_ACTION: 
       return {
         ...state,
         // optional 2nd arg in callback is the array index
         contents: state.contents.map((content, index) => {
           if (index === action.meta.index) {
             return action.data
           }

           return content
         })
       }
   }
 }

Just to build on @sapy's answer which is the correct one. I wanted to show you another example of how to change a property of an object inside an array in Redux without mutating the state.

I had an array of orders in my state. Each order is an object containing many properties and values. I however, only wanted to change the note property. So some thing like this

let orders = [order1_Obj, order2_obj, order3_obj, order4_obj];

where for example order3_obj = {note: '', total: 50.50, items: 4, deliverDate: '07/26/2016'};

So in my Reducer, I had the following code:

return Object.assign({}, state,
{
  orders: 
    state.orders.slice(0, action.index)
    .concat([{
      ...state.orders[action.index],
      notes: action.notes 
    }])
    .concat(state.orders.slice(action.index + 1))
   })

So essentially, you're doing the following:

1) Slice out the array before order3_obj so [order1_Obj, order2_obj]

2) Concat (i.e add in) the edited order3_obj by using the three dot ... spread operator and the particular property you want to change (i.e note)

3) Concat in the rest of the orders array using .concat and .slice at the end .concat(state.orders.slice(action.index + 1)) which is everything after order3_obj (in this case order4_obj is the only one left).
