Scala idiomatic wrapper for RxJS

Primary LanguageScala

RxScala.js Build Status Scala.js Gitter Maven Central

This is a Scala adapter to RxJs.

Example usage:

val o = Observable.interval(200).take(5)
o.subscribe(n => println("n = " + n))
Observable.just(1, 2, 3, 4).reduce(_ + _)

Example usage in Browser:

Observable.fromEvent(document.getElementById("btn"),"click")
  .mapTo(1)
  .scan(0)(_ + _)
  .subscribe(n => println(s"Clicked $n times"))

Getting Started

Add the following to your sbt build definition:

libraryDependencies += "com.github.lukajcb" %%% "rxscala-js" % "0.15.0"

then import the types from the package rxscalajs.

Javascript Dependencies

RxScala.js doesn't actually come bundled with the underlying rx.js file, so you'll need to either add them manually or specify them as jsDependencies:

jsDependencies += "org.webjars.npm" % "rxjs" % "5.4.0" / "bundles/Rx.min.js" commonJSName "Rx"

Differences from RxJS

Similary to RxScala, this wrapper attempts to expose an API which is as Scala-idiomatic as possible. Some examples:

 // instead of concat:
def ++[U >: T](that: Observable[U]): Observable[U]

// curried in Scala collections, so curry fold also here:
def foldLeft[R](seed: R)(accumulator: (R, T) => R): Observable[R] 

// called skip in RxJS, but drop in Scala
def drop(n: Int): Observable[T] 

// like in the collection API
def zipWithIndex: Observable[(T, Int)] 

// the implicit evidence argument ensures that switch can only be called on Observables of Observables:
def switch[U](implicit evidence: Observable[T] <:< Observable[Observable[U]]): Observable[U]
