This repository renames the package references for RxPY3 from rx to rx3 so that you can install both rx and rx3 at the same time to ease with transitioning.
Simply use rx3 instead of rx wherever you'd normally import modules.
A library for composing asynchronous and event-based programs using observable collections and query operator functions in Python
For v1.X please go to the v1 branch.
RxPY v3.x runs on Python 3.6 or above. To install RxPY:
pip3 install rxpy3Reactive Extensions for Python (RxPY) is a set of libraries for composing asynchronous and event-based programs using observable sequences and pipable query operators in Python. Using Rx, developers represent asynchronous data streams with Observables, query asynchronous data streams using operators, and parameterize concurrency in data/event streams using Schedulers.
import rx3
from rx3 import operators as ops
source = rx3.of("Alpha", "Beta", "Gamma", "Delta", "Epsilon")
composed = source.pipe(
ops.map(lambda s: len(s)),
ops.filter(lambda i: i >= 5)
)
composed.subscribe(lambda value: print("Received {0}".format(value)))Read the documentation to learn the principles of RxPY and get the complete reference of the available operators.
I you need to migrate code from RxPY v1.x, read the migration section.
There is also a list of third party documentation available here.

RxPY is a fairly complete implementation of Rx with more than 120 operators, and over 1300 passing unit-tests. RxPY is mostly a direct port of RxJS, but also borrows a bit from RxNET and RxJava in terms of threading and blocking operators.
RxPY follows PEP 8, so all function and method names are lowercase with words separated by underscores as necessary to improve readability.
Thus .NET code such as:
var group = source.GroupBy(i => i % 3);need to be written with an _ in Python:
group = source.pipe(ops.group_by(lambda i: i % 3))With RxPY you should use named keyword arguments instead of positional arguments when an operator has multiple optional arguments. RxPY will not try to detect which arguments you are giving to the operator (or not).
