gstore

Global state management for GTK apps in redux style.

A State can be any kind of data structure an application is based on. For a 'counter' app it might be a struct with a single u32 field. Actions are enums which represent the possible features of the app affecting the state.

Documentation

Please check out the rust doc: https://docs.rs/gstore/latest/gstore.

Implementation

gstore works in the ui thread. Asynchronous tasks can be handeled in middlewares. To listen to background threads gstore uses std::sync::mpsc::{Receiver, Sender} and polls every n (100) milliseconds for changes. Thus the UI thread is never blocked.
