Immer middleware
16

The Immer middleware enables you to use an immutable state in a more convenient way. Also, with Immer you can simplify handling immutable data structures on Zustand.

Installation

In order to use the Immer middleware in Zustand, you will need to install Immer as a direct dependency.

npm install immer

Usage

Updating simple states

import create from 'zustand'
import { immer } from 'zustand/middleware/immer'

type State = {
  count: number
}

type Actions = {
  increment: (qty: number) => void
  decrement: (qty: number) => void
}

export const useCountStore = create(
  immer<State & Actions>((set) => ({
    count: 0,
    increment: (qty: number) =>
      set((state) => {
        state.count += qty
      }),
    decrement: (qty: number) =>
      set((state) => {
        state.count -= qty
      }),
  }))
)

Updating complex states

import create from 'zustand'
import { immer } from 'zustand/middleware/immer'

interface Todo {
  id: string
  title: string
  done: boolean
}

type State = {
  todos: Record<string, Todo>
}

type Actions = {
  toggleTodo: (todoId: string) => void
}

export const useTodoStore = create(
  immer<State & Actions>((set) => ({
    todos: {
      '82471c5f-4207-4b1d-abcb-b98547e01a3e': {
        id: '82471c5f-4207-4b1d-abcb-b98547e01a3e',
        title: 'Learn Zustand',
        done: false,
      },
      '354ee16c-bfdd-44d3-afa9-e93679bda367': {
        id: '354ee16c-bfdd-44d3-afa9-e93679bda367',
        title: 'Learn Jotai',
        done: false,
      },
      '771c85c5-46ea-4a11-8fed-36cc2c7be344': {
        id: '771c85c5-46ea-4a11-8fed-36cc2c7be344',
        title: 'Learn Valtio',
        done: false,
      },
      '363a4bac-083f-47f7-a0a2-aeeee153a99c': {
        id: '363a4bac-083f-47f7-a0a2-aeeee153a99c',
        title: 'Learn Signals',
        done: false,
      },
    },
    toggleTodo: (todoId: string) =>
      set((state) => {
        state.todos[todoId].done = !state.todos[todoId].done
      }),
  }))
)

Gotchas

On this page we can find some things that we need to keep in mind when we are using Zustand with Immer.

My subscriptions aren't being called

If you are using Immer, make sure you are actually following the rules of Immer.

For example, you have to add [immerable] = true for class objects to work. If you don't do this, Immer will still mutate the object, but not as a proxy, so it will also update the current state. Zustand checks if the state has actually changed, so since both the current state as well as the next state are equal (if you don't do it correctly), it will skip calling the subscriptions.
