TanStack Pacer Solid Adapter

If you are using TanStack Pacer in a Solid application, we recommend using the Solid Adapter. The Solid Adapter provides a set of easy-to-use hooks on top of the core Pacer utilities. If you find yourself wanting to use the core Pacer classes/functions directly, the Solid Adapter will also re-export everything from the core package.

Installation

npm install @tanstack/solid-pacer

npm install @tanstack/solid-pacer

Solid Hooks

See the Solid Functions Reference to see the full list of hooks available in the Solid Adapter.

Basic Usage

Import a solid specific hook from the Solid Adapter.

tsx

import { useDebouncedValue } from '@tanstack/solid-pacer'

const [instantValue, instantValueRef] = useState(0)
const [debouncedValue, debouncer] = useDebouncedValue(instantValue, {
  wait: 1000,
})

import { useDebouncedValue } from '@tanstack/solid-pacer'

const [instantValue, instantValueRef] = useState(0)
const [debouncedValue, debouncer] = useDebouncedValue(instantValue, {
  wait: 1000,
})

Or import a core Pacer class/function that is re-exported from the Solid Adapter.

tsx

import { debounce, Debouncer } from '@tanstack/solid-pacer' // no need to install the core package separately

import { debounce, Debouncer } from '@tanstack/solid-pacer' // no need to install the core package separately

Option Helpers

If you want a type-safe way to define common options for pacer utilities, TanStack Pacer provides option helpers for each utility. These helpers can be used with Solid hooks.

Debouncer Options

tsx

import { useDebouncer } from '@tanstack/solid-pacer'
import { debouncerOptions } from '@tanstack/pacer'

const commonDebouncerOptions = debouncerOptions({
  wait: 1000,
  leading: false,
  trailing: true,
})

const debouncer = useDebouncer(
  (query: string) => fetchSearchResults(query),
  { ...commonDebouncerOptions, key: 'searchDebouncer' }
)

import { useDebouncer } from '@tanstack/solid-pacer'
import { debouncerOptions } from '@tanstack/pacer'

const commonDebouncerOptions = debouncerOptions({
  wait: 1000,
  leading: false,
  trailing: true,
})

const debouncer = useDebouncer(
  (query: string) => fetchSearchResults(query),
  { ...commonDebouncerOptions, key: 'searchDebouncer' }
)

Queuer Options

tsx

import { useQueuer } from '@tanstack/solid-pacer'
import { queuerOptions } from '@tanstack/pacer'

const commonQueuerOptions = queuerOptions({
  concurrency: 3,
  addItemsTo: 'back',
})

const queuer = useQueuer(
  (item: string) => processItem(item),
  { ...commonQueuerOptions, key: 'itemQueuer' }
)

import { useQueuer } from '@tanstack/solid-pacer'
import { queuerOptions } from '@tanstack/pacer'

const commonQueuerOptions = queuerOptions({
  concurrency: 3,
  addItemsTo: 'back',
})

const queuer = useQueuer(
  (item: string) => processItem(item),
  { ...commonQueuerOptions, key: 'itemQueuer' }
)

Rate Limiter Options

tsx

import { useRateLimiter } from '@tanstack/solid-pacer'
import { rateLimiterOptions } from '@tanstack/pacer'

const commonRateLimiterOptions = rateLimiterOptions({
  limit: 5,
  window: 60000,
  windowType: 'sliding',
})

const rateLimiter = useRateLimiter(
  (data: string) => sendApiRequest(data),
  { ...commonRateLimiterOptions, key: 'apiRateLimiter' }
)

import { useRateLimiter } from '@tanstack/solid-pacer'
import { rateLimiterOptions } from '@tanstack/pacer'

const commonRateLimiterOptions = rateLimiterOptions({
  limit: 5,
  window: 60000,
  windowType: 'sliding',
})

const rateLimiter = useRateLimiter(
  (data: string) => sendApiRequest(data),
  { ...commonRateLimiterOptions, key: 'apiRateLimiter' }
)

Provider

The Solid Adapter provides a PacerProvider component that you can use to provide default options to all instances of pacer utilities within your component tree.

tsx

import { PacerProvider } from '@tanstack/solid-pacer'

// Set default options for solid-pacer instances
<PacerProvider
  defaultOptions={{
    debouncer: { wait: 1000 },
    queuer: { concurrency: 3 },
    rateLimiter: { limit: 5, window: 60000 },
  }}
>
  <App />
</PacerProvider>

import { PacerProvider } from '@tanstack/solid-pacer'

// Set default options for solid-pacer instances
<PacerProvider
  defaultOptions={{
    debouncer: { wait: 1000 },
    queuer: { concurrency: 3 },
    rateLimiter: { limit: 5, window: 60000 },
  }}
>
  <App />
</PacerProvider>

All hooks within the provider will automatically use these default options, which can be overridden on a per-hook basis.

Examples

Debouncer Example

tsx

import { useDebouncer } from '@tanstack/solid-pacer'

function SearchComponent() {
  const debouncer = useDebouncer(
    (query: string) => {
      console.log('Searching for:', query)
      // Perform search
    },
    { wait: 500 }
  )

  return (
    <input
      onChange={(e) => debouncer.maybeExecute(e.target.value)}
      placeholder="Search..."
    />
  )
}

import { useDebouncer } from '@tanstack/solid-pacer'

function SearchComponent() {
  const debouncer = useDebouncer(
    (query: string) => {
      console.log('Searching for:', query)
      // Perform search
    },
    { wait: 500 }
  )

  return (
    <input

Rate Limiter Example

        body: JSON.stringify({ data }),
      })
    },

        alert('Rate limit reached. Please try again later.')
      },
    }
  )

  const handleSubmit = () => {
    const remaining = rateLimiter.getRemainingInWindow()

    }
  }

  return <button onClick={handleSubmit}>Submit</button>
}
