### Creating a Transition Actor with xstate

Source: https://www.jsdocs.io/package/xstate/index

Example demonstrating how to create an actor using `fromTransition` in xstate. It shows the setup of context, events, input, and the logic for state transitions.

```typescript
import {
  fromTransition,
  createActor,
  type AnyActorSystem
} from 'xstate';


//* The actor's stored context.
type Context = {
  // The current count.
  count: number;
  // The amount to increase `count` by.
  step: number;
};
// The events the actor receives.
type Event = { type: 'increment' };
// The actor's input.
type Input = { step?: number };


// Actor logic that increments `count` by `step` when it receives an event of
// type `increment`.
const logic = fromTransition<Context, Event, AnyActorSystem, Input>(
  (state, event, actorScope) => {
    actorScope.self;
    //         ^? TransitionActorRef<Context, Event>


    if (event.type === 'increment') {
      return {
        ...state,
        count: state.count + state.step
      };
    }
    return state;
  },
  ({ input, self }) => {
    self;
    // ^? TransitionActorRef<Context, Event>


    return {
      count: 0,
      step: input.step ?? 1
    };
  }
);


const actor = createActor(logic, { input: { step: 10 } });
//    ^? TransitionActorRef<Context, Event>
```

            TEmitted
        >
    ) => ActionFunction<
        TContext,
        TEvent,
        TEvent,
        unknown,
        ToProvidedActor<TChildrenMap, TActors>,
        ToParameterizedObject<TActions>,
        ToParameterizedObject<TGuards>,
        TDelay,
        TEmitted
    >;
    createMachine: () => const;
};


```

### Example Usage of fromTransition (JavaScript)

Source: https://www.jsdocs.io/package/xstate/index

Demonstrates creating and using a transition actor. An initial state `{ count: 0 }` is provided. The actor subscribes to snapshots, starts, and sends an 'increment' event, logging the resulting state changes.

```javascript
const transitionLogic = fromTransition(
  (state, event) => {
    if (event.type === 'increment') {
      return {
        ...state,
        count: state.count + 1
      };
    }
    return state;
  },
  { count: 0 }
);


const transitionActor = createActor(transitionLogic);
transitionActor.subscribe((snapshot) => {
  console.log(snapshot);
});
transitionActor.start();
// => {
//   status: 'active',
//   context: { count: 0 },
//   ...
// }


transitionActor.send({ type: 'increment' });
// => {
//   status: 'active',
//   context: { count: 1 },
//   ...
// }
```

--------------------------------

### Start Method for StateNode in xstate

Source: https://www.jsdocs.io/package/xstate/index

The `start` method initializes or resumes the state node with a given snapshot. It returns void and is fundamental for activating a state within the machine.

```typescript
start: (
    snapshot: MachineSnapshot<
        TContext,
        TEvent,
        TChildren,
        TStateValue,
        TTag,
        TOutput,
        TMeta,
        TConfig
    >
) => void;
```

--------------------------------

--------------------------------

### Example: Creating an Observable Actor with XState (TypeScript)

Source: https://www.jsdocs.io/package/xstate/index

Demonstrates how to create an actor using `fromObservable` in xstate. The actor uses RxJS's `interval` to increment a counter over time, configurable by an input `period`. The example shows how to type the actor's context and input, and how `self` within the logic resolves to `ObservableActorRef`.

```typescript
import { fromObservable, createActor } from 'xstate';
import { interval } from 'rxjs';


// The type of the value observed by the actor's logic.
type Context = number;
// The actor's input.
type Input = { period?: number };


// Actor logic that observes a number incremented every `input.period`
// milliseconds (default: 1_000).
const logic = fromObservable<Context, Input>(({ input, self }) => {
  self;
  // ^? ObservableActorRef<Event, Input>


  return interval(input.period ?? 1_000);
});


const actor = createActor(logic, { input: { period: 2_000 } });
//    ^? ObservableActorRef<Event, Input>
```

--------------------------------

### Start and Stop Actor (JavaScript)

Source: https://www.jsdocs.io/package/xstate/index

Provides methods to control the lifecycle of an Actor. 'start()' initiates the actor from its initial state, and 'stop()' halts the actor and unsubscribes all listeners.

```javascript
start: () => this;
```

```javascript
stop: () => this;
```

--------------------------------

### Actor Methods

Source: https://www.jsdocs.io/package/xstate/index

Methods for interacting with XState actors, including subscribing to snapshots, sending events, starting, stopping, and serializing actors.

```APIDOC
## Actor Methods

### method on

```javascript
on: <TType extends EmittedFrom<TLogic>['type'] | '*'>(type: TType, handler: (emitted: EmittedFrom<TLogic> & (TType extends '*' ? unknown : { type: TType })) => void) => Subscription;
```

* Subscribes a handler function to specific emitted event types or all event types from an actor.

### method send

```javascript
send: (event: EventFromLogic<TLogic>) => void;
```

* Sends an event to the running Actor to trigger a transition.
#### Parameter event
* **event** (EventFromLogic<TLogic>) - The event to send.

### method start

```javascript
start: () => this;
```

* Starts the Actor from the initial state.

### method stop

```javascript
stop: () => this;
```

* Stops the Actor and unsubscribes all listeners.

### method subscribe

```javascript
subscribe: {
    (observer: Observer<SnapshotFrom<TLogic>>): Subscription;
    (nextListener?: (snapshot: SnapshotFrom<TLogic>) => void, errorListener?: (error: any) => void, completeListener?: () => void): Subscription;
};
```

* Subscribe an observer to an actor’s snapshot values.
#### Parameter observer
* **observer** (Observer<SnapshotFrom<TLogic>> | ((snapshot: SnapshotFrom<TLogic>) => void)) - Either a plain function that receives the latest snapshot, or an observer object whose `.next(snapshot)` method receives the latest snapshot.
#### Remarks
The observer will receive the actor’s snapshot value when it is emitted. The observer can be:
- A plain function that receives the latest snapshot
- An observer object whose `.next(snapshot)` method receives the latest snapshot
#### Example 1
```javascript
// Observer as a plain function
const subscription = actor.subscribe((snapshot) => {
  console.log(snapshot);
});
```
#### Example 2
```javascript
// Observer as an object
const subscription = actor.subscribe({
  next(snapshot) {
    console.log(snapshot);
  },
  error(err) {
    // ...
  },
  complete() {
    // ...
  }
});
```
The return value of `actor.subscribe(observer)` is a subscription object that has an `.unsubscribe()` method. You can call `subscription.unsubscribe()` to unsubscribe the observer:
#### Example 3
```javascript
const subscription = actor.subscribe((snapshot) => {
  // ...
});

// Unsubscribe the observer
subscription.unsubscribe();
```
When the actor is stopped, all of its observers will automatically be unsubscribed.

### method toJSON

```javascript
toJSON: () => { xstate$$type: number; id: string };
```

* Serializes the actor's state for debugging or persistence.
```

--------------------------------

### Get Initial State Machine Snapshot (TypeScript)

Source: https://www.jsdocs.io/package/xstate/index

Retrieves the initial snapshot of the state machine, providing the starting state with a reference to the actor scope. It can optionally accept an input value.

```typescript
getInitialSnapshot: (
    actorScope: ActorScope<
        MachineSnapshot<
            TContext,
            TEvent,
            TChildren,
            TStateValue,
            TTag,
            TOutput,
            TMeta,
            TConfig
        >,
        TEvent,
        AnyActorSystem,
        TEmitted
    >,
    input?: TInput
) => MachineSnapshot<
    TContext,
    TEvent,
    TChildren,
    TStateValue,
    TTag,
    TOutput,
    TMeta,
    TConfig
>;
```

--------------------------------

### Create and Use XState Callback Actor

Source: https://www.jsdocs.io/package/xstate/index

This example shows how to create a callback actor using `fromCallback` and then instantiate it with `createActor`. The actor is configured to log a message when it receives a specific event. It demonstrates the basic structure for defining actor logic and its associated types.

```javascript
import { fromCallback, createActor } from 'xstate';


// The events the actor receives.
type Event = { type: 'someEvent' };
// The actor's input.
type Input = { name: string };


// Actor logic that logs whenever it receives an event of type `someEvent`.
const logic = fromCallback<Event, Input>(({ self, input, receive }) => {
  self;
  // ^? CallbackActorRef<Event, Input>


  receive((event) => {
    if (event.type === 'someEvent') {
      console.log(`${input.name}: received "someEvent" event`);
      // logs 'myActor: received "someEvent" event'
    }
  });
});


const actor = createActor(logic, { input: { name: 'myActor' } });
//    ^? CallbackActorRef<Event, Input>
```

--------------------------------

### Get Initial Transition Result (TypeScript)

Source: https://www.jsdocs.io/package/xstate/index

Provides the initial snapshot and any executable actions for an actor logic without a previous state. It takes the actor logic and an optional input, returning a tuple containing the snapshot and an array of actions to be executed.

```typescript
initialTransition: <T extends AnyActorLogic>(
    logic: T,
    ...[input]: undefined extends InputFrom<T>
        ? [input?: InputFrom<T>]
        : [input: InputFrom<T>]
) => [SnapshotFrom<T>, ExecutableActionsFrom<T>[]];
```

--------------------------------

### Example Usage of getNextSnapshot (JavaScript)

Source: https://www.jsdocs.io/package/xstate/index

Illustrates how to use `getNextSnapshot` to determine future states. It shows calculating the next snapshot from an undefined state with a 'TIMER' event, and then again from the previous result with another 'TIMER' event, demonstrating state progression.

```javascript
import { getNextSnapshot } from 'xstate';
import { trafficLightMachine } from './trafficLightMachine.ts';


const nextSnapshot = getNextSnapshot(
  trafficLightMachine, // actor logic
  undefined, // snapshot (or initial state if undefined)
  { type: 'TIMER' } 
); // event object


console.log(nextSnapshot.value);
// => 'yellow'


const nextSnapshot2 = getNextSnapshot(
  trafficLightMachine, // actor logic
  nextSnapshot, // snapshot
  { type: 'TIMER' } 
); // event object


console.log(nextSnapshot2.value);
// =>'red'
```

--------------------------------

### ActorRef Interface

Source: https://www.jsdocs.io/package/xstate/index

### XState Function: createActor - Create Actor Instance

Source: https://www.jsdocs.io/package/xstate/index

The 'createActor' function generates a new actor instance from the provided actor logic and optional configuration. This function implicitly creates an actor system with the new actor as the root. Actors must be explicitly started using 'actor.start()' and can be stopped with 'actor.stop()'.

```javascript
createActor: <TLogic extends AnyActorLogic>( 
    logic: TLogic,
    ...[options]: ConditionalRequired< 
        [
            options?: ActorOptions<TLogic> & {
                [K in RequiredActorOptionsKeys<TLogic>]: unknown;
            }
        ],
        IsNotNever<RequiredActorOptionsKeys<TLogic>>
    >
) => Actor<TLogic>;


```

```javascript
import { createActor } from 'xstate';
import { someActorLogic } from './someActorLogic.ts';


// Creating the actor, which implicitly creates an actor system with itself as the root actor
const actor = createActor(someActorLogic);


actor.subscribe((snapshot) => {
  console.log(snapshot);
});


// Actors must be started by calling `actor.start()`, which will also start the actor system.
actor.start();


// Actors can receive events
actor.send({ type: 'someEvent' });


// You can stop root actors by calling `actor.stop()`, which will also stop the actor system and all actors in that system.
actor.stop();


```

### XState Machine Actions: entry, exit, assertEvent

Source: https://www.jsdocs.io/package/xstate/index

Demonstrates the use of 'entry' and 'exit' actions within an XState machine configuration. It also shows how to use 'assertEvent' to validate incoming events within these actions. These are core to defining behavior when entering or leaving states, and for ensuring events conform to expected structures.

```javascript
// ...
entry: ({ event }) => {
  assertEvent(event, 'doNothing');
  // event is { type: 'doNothing' }
},
// ...
exit: ({ event }) => {
  assertEvent(event, 'greet');
  // event is { type: 'greet'; message: string }


  assertEvent(event, ['greet', 'notify']);
  // event is { type: 'greet'; message: string }
  // or { type: 'notify'; message: string; level: 'info' | 'error' }
},


```

### Actor Creation with Inspection

Source: https://www.jsdocs.io/package/xstate/index

Demonstrates how to create an actor with an inspect callback to monitor system events like actor creation, event sending, and snapshot emissions.

```APIDOC
## Actor Creation with Inspection

### Description
This section details how to create an actor and provide an `inspect` callback function to observe various system events. The callback can handle events such as `@xstate.actor`, `@xstate.event`, and `@xstate.snapshot`.

### Method
`createActor(logic, options?)

### Parameters
#### Options
- **inspect** (function | object) - A callback function or observer object to inspect system events.
  - **callback function**: Receives an `inspectionEvent` argument.
  - **observer object**: An object with `next`, `error`, and `complete` methods.

### Request Example (Callback Function)
```javascript
import { createActor } from 'xstate';

const actor = createActor(machine, {
  inspect: (inspectionEvent) => {
    if (inspectionEvent.type === '@xstate.event') {
      console.log(inspectionEvent.event);
    }
  }
});
```

### Request Example (Observer Object)
```javascript
const actor = createActor(machine, {
  inspect: {
    next: (inspectionEvent) => {
      if (inspectionEvent.type === '@xstate.snapshot') {
        console.log(inspectionEvent.snapshot);
      }
    }
  }
});
```

### Remarks
The `inspect` callback provides insights into the actor's lifecycle and interactions within the XState system. You can filter events based on their type or the involved actor references.

These properties allow for detailed configuration when creating or managing actors.

### Properties
- **logger** (function) - Specifies the logger to be used for `log(...)` actions. Defaults to `console.log`.
- **parent** (AnyActorRef) - The parent actor ref.
- **snapshot** (Snapshot<unknown>) - Initializes actor logic from a specific persisted internal state. Actions from machine actors will not be re-executed. Invocations will be restarted, and spawned actors will be restored recursively. Can be generated with `Actor.getPersistedSnapshot()`.
- **src** (string | AnyActorLogic) - The source actor logic.
- **systemId** (string) - The system ID to register this actor under.

### Remarks
- The `snapshot` property is crucial for persistence and resuming actor states. Ensure the provided snapshot is compatible with the actor's logic.
- Refer to https://stately.ai/docs/persistence for more details on persistence.
```

--------------------------------

### Actor Get Persisted Snapshot Method (JavaScript)
