[yew-devel] [RFC yew-comp/yew-widget-toolkit 0/2] add helpers to get a record via a Selection from a Store

[yew-devel] [RFC yew-comp/yew-widget-toolkit 0/2] add helpers to get a record via a Selection from a Store

[Shannon Sterz]

a very common pattern is to use a `Store` combined with a `Selection`.
however, to get the record from a `Store` that has the same `Key` as is
selected by the `Selection` is a little cumbersome as it requires
dealing with several optional values. so many components implement a
helper for that. it usually looks like this:

```rust
fn get_selected_record(&self) -> Option<ApiToken> {
    self.selection
        .selected_key()
        .and_then(|key| self.store.read().lookup_record(&key).cloned())
}

let Some(record) = self.get_selected_record() else {
    return false;
}
```

to avoid duplicating this effort in every such component add new helper
methods to the `Store`. they each take a `Selection` and either return
an optional reference or an optional clone of the selected record.
turning the above into:

```rust
let Some(record) = self.store.selected_record(&self.selection) else {
    return false;
}
```

the second commit in this series is mostly for demonstrative purposes.
sending this as an rfc as i am not sure if the naming of these functions
is ideal or whether we want to add both helpers (instead of just one of
them).

[yew-devel] [RFC PATCH yew-widget-toolkit 1/1] store: add helper methods to extract a record via a selection

[Shannon Sterz]

this adds two helpers to the `Store` (and its `StoreState`) that have
similar objectives:

- `selected_record(Selection) -> Option<T>`: returns a clone of the
record that has the same `Key` as the currently selected item in the
`Selection`. this requires the type `T` to implement `Clone`.
- `lookup_with_selection(Selection) -> Option<&T>`: requires the user
to acquire a read guard on the store first and will then return a
reference to the record of the store that matches the currently
selected item in the `Selection`.

Re: [yew-devel] [RFC yew-comp/yew-widget-toolkit 0/2] add helpers to get a record via a Selection from a Store

[Shannon Sterz]

discussed this off-list and was encouraged to also add versions of these
helpers for selections in multi-select mode. will include that in a v1.
