• Finite states (non-nested)
• Initial state
• Transitions (object or strings)
• Context
• Entry actions
• Exit actions
• Transition actions
• state.changed

If you want to use statechart features such as nested states, parallel states, history states, activities, invoked services, delayed transitions, transient transitions, etc. please use XState.

Quick start

Installation

npm i @xstate/fsm

Usage (machine)

import { createMachine } from '@xstate/fsm';

const toggleMachine = createMachine({
  id: 'toggle',
  initial: 'inactive',
  states: {
    inactive: { on: { TOGGLE: 'active' } },
    active: { on: { TOGGLE: 'inactive' } }
  }
});

const { initialState } = toggleMachine;

const toggledState = toggleMachine.transition(initialState, 'TOGGLE');
toggledState.value;
const untoggledState = toggleMachine.transition(toggledState, 'TOGGLE');
untoggledState.value;
// => 'inactive'

Usage (service)

import { createMachine, interpret } from '@xstate/fsm';

const toggleMachine = createMachine({});

const toggleService = interpret(toggleMachine).start();

toggleService.subscribe((state) => {
  console.log(state.value);
});

toggleService.send('TOGGLE');
toggleService.send('TOGGLE');
toggleService.stop();
