Customizing API Requests with serializeQueryArgs
Provide an example of how to use `serializeQueryArgs` to customize query string serialization for complicated queries, such as nested object parameters or arrays, ensuring stable cache keys.
import { createApi, fetchBaseQuery, defaultSerializeQueryArgs } from '@reduxjs/toolkit/query/react';
const complexApi = createApi({
baseQuery: fetchBaseQuery({ baseUrl: '/' }),
endpoints: (builder) => ({
getComplexData: builder.query({
query: ({ params }) => ({ url: `complexEndpoint`, method: 'GET', params }),
serializeQueryArgs: ({
endpointName,
queryArgs: { params },
endpointDefinition
}) => {
// Serialize the nested params object into a stable string
const serializedParams = JSON.stringify(
Object.keys(params)
.sort()
.reduce((acc, key) => {
acc[key] = params[key];
return acc;
}, {})
);
// Use the default serializer for the rest
return defaultSerializeQueryArgs({
endpointName,
queryArgs: { serializedParams },
endpointDefinition
});
}
})
})
});
This code creates an API service with Redux Toolkit Query that includes a 'getComplexData' endpoint. The `serializeQueryArgs` function is overridden to handle the serialization of query arguments that include a nested 'params' object. It serializes the nested object into a stable string by sorting the keys and then using JSON.stringify. It then calls the default serializer with this new serializedParams object to ensure a stable cache key.
