SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

DBX Core Actions address the complexity of coordinating asynchronous operations in Angular by offering a typed, declarative action system and an ActionContextStore that centralizes state management and lifecycle handling.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • 7-state action state machine guides action flow from idle to success or error.
  • ActionContextStore: immutable, observable-driven state management that coordinates values, triggers, and results.
  • Directive-composition model: build complex workflows by composing context, value providers, handlers, and UI feedback directives.
  • Type safety & generics: support for input type T and output type O across actions.
  • Robust cleanup & lifecycle: automatic unsubscription and lifecycle safety to prevent leaks.

Use cases: API calls, form submissions, multi-step tasks, and complex workflows requiring centralized coordination.

Quick Start

Start by creating a root dbxAction container to provide the ActionContextStore, attach a dbxActionHandler to process results (returning an Observable or using the context.resolve()), and add a value provider (dbxActionValue or dbxActionForm) together with a dbxActionButton to trigger and optional UI directives for feedback.

FAQPage Schema
How do I manage asynchronous workflows in Angular without causing memory leaks?

Asynchronous workflows in Angular can be managed declaratively using an observable-driven action state machine with robust cleanup and automatic unsubscription to prevent memory leaks.

What is the best way to coordinate stateful API calls and form submissions in Angular?

Coordinating stateful API calls and form submissions is best handled by a centralized ActionContextStore that guides a 7-state action flow from idle to success or error using observable streams.

How does a declarative action state machine handle multi-step interactions in RxJS?

A declarative action state machine handles multi-step RxJS interactions by composing context, value providers, and UI feedback directives while maintaining type-safe generics for inputs and outputs.

Can I build complex Angular workflows by composing UI feedback and action handlers together?

You can build complex Angular workflows by using a directive-composition model that connects action handlers, value providers, and UI feedback directives within a root action container.

Does this declarative action system require manual lifecycle management for observables?

This declarative action system does not require manual lifecycle management for observables because it provides automatic unsubscription and lifecycle safety to prevent leaks.
