    subscribeWithSelector

    subscribeWithSelector middleware lets you subscribe to specific data based on current state.

    const nextStateCreatorFn = subscribeWithSelector(stateCreatorFn)

    Types

    Signature

    subscribeWithSelector<T>(stateCreatorFn: StateCreator<T, [], []>): StateCreator<T, [['zustand/subscribeWithSelector', never]], []>

    Mutator

    ;['zustand/subscribeWithSelector', never]

    Reference

    subscribeWithSelector(stateCreatorFn)

    Parameters

    • stateCreatorFn: A function that takes set function, get function and store as arguments. Usually, you will return an object with the methods you want to expose.

    Returns

    subscribeWithSelector returns a state creator function.

    Usage

    Subscribing partial state updates

    By subscribing to partial state updates, you register a callback that fires whenever the store's partial state updates. We can use subscribe for external state management.

    import { createStore } from 'zustand/vanilla'
import { subscribeWithSelector } from 'zustand/middleware'

type PositionStoreState = { position: { x: number; y: number } }

type PositionStoreActions = {
  setPosition: (nextPosition: PositionStoreState['position']) => void
}

type PositionStore = PositionStoreState & PositionStoreActions

const positionStore = createStore<PositionStore>()(
  subscribeWithSelector((set) => ({
    position: { x: 0, y: 0 },
    setPosition: (position) => set({ position }),
  })),
)

const $dot = document.getElementById('dot') as HTMLDivElement

$dot.addEventListener('mouseenter', (event) => {
  const parent = event.currentTarget.parentElement
  const parentWidth = parent.clientWidth
  const parentHeight = parent.clientHeight

  positionStore.getState().setPosition({
    x: Math.ceil(Math.random() * parentWidth),
    y: Math.ceil(Math.random() * parentHeight),
  })
})

const render: Parameters<typeof positionStore.subscribe>[0] = (state) => {
  $dot.style.transform = `translate(${state.position.x}px, ${state.position.y}px)`
}

render(positionStore.getInitialState(), positionStore.getInitialState())

positionStore.subscribe((state) => state.position, render)

const logger: Parameters<typeof positionStore.subscribe>[0] = (x) => {
  console.log('new x position', { x })
}

positionStore.subscribe((state) => state.position.x, logger)

    Here's the html code

    <div
  id="dot-container"
  style="position: relative; width: 100vw; height: 100vh;"
>
  <div
    id="dot"
    style="position: absolute; background-color: red; border-radius: 50%; left: -10px; top: -10px; width: 20px; height: 20px;"
  ></div>
</div>
