observables-with-streams - v0.6.0

Observables with Streams

A library for observables built with WHATWG streams. This library is inspired by ReactiveX’s operators and implements a subset of them using streams.

npm install --save observables-with-streams

The goal of this library is to implement observables making as much use of the platform as possible and being highly tree-shakeable.

Example

<!DOCTYPE html>

<button id="dec">-</button>

<span id="counter">0</span>

<button id="inc">+</button>

<script type="module">
  import * as ows from "observables-with-streams";

  ows.merge(
    ows.fromEvent(
      document.querySelector("#dec")
      "click"
    ).pipeThrough(ows.map(() => -1)),
    ows.fromEvent(
      document.querySelector("#inc")
      "click"
    ).pipeThrough(ows.map(() => 1))
  )
    .pipeThrough(
      ows.scan((v0, v1) => v0 + v1, 0)
    )
    .pipeTo(
      ows.subscribe(
        v => document.querySelector("#counter").textContent = v
      )
    );
</script>

Documentation

The (somewhat lacking) documentation for this library is hosted at https://observables-with-streams.surma.technology

Caveats

While most browsers have partial support of streams in stable, this library makes heavy use of TransformStreams, which are currently not well supported. Until browsers catch up, I can recommend Mattias Buelens' web-streams-polyfill.

For a good primer about streams, read this blog post by Jake Archibald (he is aware the title hasn’t aged well).
