withCngxAsyncState

Description#

@ngrx/signals store feature that grants a store a CngxAsyncState-shaped slice with zero hand-written status flags.

The element type is supplied up front and the key is inferred from the argument, so the two contributed members carry the literal key: withCngxAsyncState<User[]>()('users') adds usersState (the read-only CngxAsyncState<User[]> view) and usersSink (the writable ManualAsyncState<User[]>). Drive the status with the existing tapAsyncState operator - no new state machine, no manual isLoading boolean. Both members are the same underlying createManualState instance, exposed under a read type and a write type.

The <T>() / (key) split is deliberate: TypeScript cannot infer the literal key while T is given explicitly in one call, so a single-call form collapses the key to a string index signature. Currying keeps the key literal - and therefore the store members concretely named.

export const UsersStore = signalStore(
  withCngxAsyncState<User[]>()('users'),
  withMethods((store) => {
    const http = inject(HttpClient);
    return {
      load: () =>
        http.get<User[]>('/api/users').pipe(
          tapAsyncState(store.usersSink),
          takeUntilDestroyed(),
        ).subscribe(),
    };
  }),
);
// store.usersState.status(), store.usersState.data() - derived, no flags
