Simple RxJS binding for Vue.js. It also supports subscriptions for generic observables that implement the .subscribe and .unsubscribe (or .dispose) interface. For example, you can use it to subscribe to most.js or Falcor streams, but some features require RxJS to work.
npm install vue vue-rx rxjs --saveimport Vue from 'vue'
import Rx from 'rxjs/Rx'
import VueRx from 'vue-rx'
// tada!
Vue.use(VueRx, Rx)In most cases, you probably don't need the full build of Rx. You can reduce the amount of code included in your bundle by doing the following:
import Vue from 'vue'
import VueRx from 'vue-rx'
import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Observable'
import { Subscription } from 'rxjs/Subscription' // Disposable if using RxJS4
import { Subject } from 'rxjs/Subject' // required for domStreams option
// tada!
Vue.use(VueRx, {
Observable,
Subscription,
Subject
})Just make sure to include vue-rx.js after Vue.js and RxJS. It will be installed automatically.
// provide Rx observables with the `subscriptions` option
new Vue({
el: '#app',
subscriptions: {
msg: messageObservable
}
})<!-- bind to it normally in templates -->
<div>{{ msg }}</div>The subscriptions options can also take a function so that you can return unique observables for each component instance:
Vue.component('foo', {
subscriptions: function () {
return {
msg: Rx.Observable.create(...)
}
}
})The observables are exposed as vm.$observables:
var vm = new Vue({
subscriptions: {
msg: messageObservable
}
})
vm.$observables.msg.subscribe(msg => console.log(msg))New in 3.0
This feature requires RxJS.
vue-rx provides the v-stream directive which allows you to stream DOM events to an Rx Subject. The syntax is similar to v-on where the directive argument is the event name, and the binding value is the target Rx Subject.
<button v-stream:click="plus$">+</button>Note that you need to declare plus$ as an instance of Rx.Subject on the vm instance before the render happens, just like you need to declare data. You can do that right in the subscriptions function:
new Vue({
subscriptions () {
// declare the receiving Subjects
this.plus$ = new Rx.Subject()
// ...then create subscriptions using the Subjects as source stream.
// the source stream emits in the form of { event: HTMLEvent, data?: any }
return {
count: this.plus$.map(() => 1)
.startWith(0)
.scan((total, change) => total + change)
}
}
})Or, use the domStreams convenience option:
new Vue({
// requires `Rx` passed to Vue.use() to expose `Subject`
domStreams: ['plus$'],
subscriptions () {
// use this.plus$
}
})Finally, you can pass additional data to the stream using the alternative syntax:
<button v-stream:click="{ subject: plus$, data: someData }">+</button>This is useful when you need to pass along temporary variables like v-for iterators. You can get the data by simply plucking it from the source stream:
const plusData$ = this.plus$.pluck('data')Starting in 3.1 you can also pass along extra options (passed along to native addEventListener as the 3rd argument):
<button v-stream:click="{
subject: plus$,
data: someData,
options: { once: true, passive: true, capture: true }
}">+</button>See example for actual usage.
This feature requires RxJS.
This is a prototype method added to instances. You can use it to create an observable from a value watcher. The emitted value is in the format of { newValue, oldValue }:
var vm = new Vue({
data: {
a: 1
},
subscriptions () {
// declaratively map to another property with Rx operators
return {
aPlusOne: this.$watchAsObservable('a')
.pluck('newValue')
.map(a => a + 1)
}
}
})
// or produce side effects...
vm.$watchAsObservable('a')
.subscribe(
({ newValue, oldValue }) => console.log('stream value', newValue, oldValue),
err => console.error(err),
() => console.log('complete')
)The optional options object accepts the same options as vm.$watch.
This feature requires RxJS.
Convert vue.$on (including lifecycle events) to Observables. The emitted value is in the format of { name, msg }:
var vm = new Vue({
created () {
this.$eventToObservable('customEvent')
.subscribe((event) => console.log(event.name,event.msg))
}
})
// vm.$once vue-rx version
this.$eventToObservable('customEvent')
.take(1)
// Another way to auto unsub:
let beforeDestroy$ = this.$eventToObservable('hook:beforeDestroy').take(1)
Rx.Observable.interval(500)
.takeUntil(beforeDestroy$)This is a prototype method added to instances. You can use it to subscribe to an observable, but let VueRx manage the dispose/unsubscribe.
var vm = new Vue({
mounted () {
this.$subscribeTo(Rx.Observable.interval(1000), function (count) {
console.log(count)
})
}
})This feature requires RxJS.
This is a prototype method added to instances. Use it to create an observable from DOM events within the instances' element. This is similar to Rx.Observable.fromEvent, but usable inside the subscriptions function even before the DOM is actually rendered.
selector is for finding descendant nodes under the component root element, if you want to listen to events from root element itself, pass null as first argument.
var vm = new Vue({
subscriptions () {
return {
inputValue: this.$fromDOMEvent('input', 'keyup').pluck('target', 'value')
}
}
})You cannot use the watch option to watch subscriptions, because it is processed before the subscriptions are set up. But you can use $watch in the created hook instead.
