Use when creating NgRx Signals Stores for state management. Triggers on requests to "create store", "add state management", "new store", "signal store", or when implementing state patterns with NgRx Signals.

NgRx Signals Store Guide
Create NgRx Signals Stores following project patterns.

Store with Hooks
import { withHooks } from "@ngrx/signals";
export const ItemStore = signalStore(
{ providedIn: "root" },
withState(initialState),
withMethods(/* ... */),
withHooks({
onInit: (store) => {
// Called when store is initialized
store.loadItems();
},
onDestroy: (store) => {
// Cleanup if needed
},
}),
);
Custom Store Properties
import { withProps } from "@ngrx/signals";
import { toObservable } from "@angular/core/rxjs-interop";
export const ItemStore = signalStore(
withState(initialState),
withProps(({ loading }) => ({
// Expose as Observable for RxJS interop
loading$: toObservable(loading),
// Inject dependencies
itemService: inject(ItemService),
logger: inject(Logger),
})),
withMethods((store) => ({
// Access via store.itemService, store.logger
})),
);
Component Integration
import {
Component,
inject,
OnInit,
ChangeDetectionStrategy,
} from "@angular/core";
import { TaskStore } from "../data/state/task-store";
@Component({
selector: "app-task-list",
template: `
@if (taskStore.loading()) {
<app-spinner />
} @else {
@for (task of taskStore.filteredTasks(); track task.id) {
<app-task-item
[task]="task"
(toggle)="
taskStore.updateTask({
id: task.id,
changes: { completed: $event },
})
"
(delete)="taskStore.deleteTask(task.id)"
/>
} @empty {
<p>No tasks found</p>
}
}
`,
changeDetection: ChangeDetectionStrategy.OnPush,
})
export class TaskList implements OnInit {
readonly taskStore = inject(TaskStore);
ngOnInit(): void {
this.taskStore.loadTasks();
}
}
Store Testing
import { TestBed } from "@angular/core/testing";
import { provideZonelessChangeDetection } from "@angular/core";
import { describe, it, expect, beforeEach, vi } from "vitest";
import { of } from "rxjs";
import { TaskStore } from "./task-store";
import { TaskService } from "../infrastructure/task";
describe("TaskStore", () => {
let store: InstanceType<typeof TaskStore>;
let mockService: Partial<TaskService>;
beforeEach(() => {
mockService = {
getTasks: vi.fn().mockReturnValue(of([])),
createTask: vi.fn(),
};
TestBed.configureTestingModule({
providers: [
TaskStore,
provideZonelessChangeDetection(),
{ provide: TaskService, useValue: mockService },
],
});
store = TestBed.inject(TaskStore);
});
it("should initialize with default state", () => {
expect(store.loading()).toBe(false);
expect(store.tasksEntities()).toEqual([]);
});
it("should load tasks", () => {
const tasks = [{ id: "1", title: "Test", completed: false }];
vi.mocked(mockService.getTasks).mockReturnValue(of(tasks));
store.loadTasks();
expect(store.tasksEntities()).toEqual(tasks);
});
});
Checklist
- Store file in
data/state/folder - State interface defined with proper types
- Initial state with meaningful defaults
- Using
rxMethodfor Observable-based API calls - Using
tapResponsefor error handling - Entity stores using
withEntitiesand entity operations - Computed properties for derived state
- Store is
providedIn: 'root'or properly scoped
