Course content

1 section28 lectures1h 28m total length
  • Introduction1:18

    Explore RxJS transformation operators, including buffer, map, scan, switch, window, and count, with practical website examples.

  • Buffer operator10:17

    Master the buffer operator in RxJS transformation operators by collecting events until a triggering observable fires, batching mouse movements or clicks to reduce processing and network requests.

  • Buffer Count5:02

    Explore RxJS transformation operators by using buffer count to group items into buffers of a chosen size, such as three, and see how pairwise yields previous and current values.

  • BufferTime1:39

    Explore the bufferTime operator in RxJS transformation operators, learning how a time window closes every second and may admit an empty buffer.

  • BufferToggle3:13

    Explore RxJS bufferToggle, which collects past values into an array from the opening emission until a closing selector observable signals to close the buffer, with interval-based examples.

  • BufferWhen2:49

    BufferWhen buffers items from a stream into an array and uses a function returning an observable to signal when to close the buffer and restart collection.

  • ConcatMap5:08

    Learn how ConcatMap maps each stream item to an inner observable and concatenates these observables, with examples and a caution about memory issues when inner streams never complete.

  • ConcatMapTo3:23

    Explore the concatMapTo operator, which maps each source value to a given inner observable and concatenates these into a single output observable, noting its deprecation in version nine.

  • exhaust and exhaustMap3:18

    Explore exhaust and exhaustMap, which ignore new inner observables until the current one completes, preventing multiple requests from rapid clicks on actions like login or API calls.

  • Expand2:57

    Explore the rxjs expand operator, which applies a projection to each source value to produce inner observables, then merges and recursively emits results for dynamic, nested data flows.

  • GroupBy4:57

    Group by creates a group observable for each key, using a key selector, with a duration selector and a connector to manage grouping and cleanup.

  • Map1:58

    Learn how the map operator in rxjs, similar to an array map, transforms each value by applying a projection to produce a new observable, and extract properties from events.

  • MapTo1:01

    Learn how map in RxJS replaces deprecated MapTo usage, producing the same output value every time and preserving the full functionality of the operator.

  • mergeMap3:32
  • mergeMapTo0:55

    Examine RxJS mergeMapTo and its relationship to merge and mergeMap, noting a deprecation of the merge approach in version nine and how the operator targets the same inner observer.

  • mergeScan1:47

    Demonstrates how mergeScan merges inner observables from click events into the outer observable, using a seed accumulator and a concurrency limit.

  • Pairwise3:04

    Learn how the pairwise operator groups consecutive values into pairs in an observable stream, enabling calculation of the distance between the previous and current values, illustrated with click events.

  • Partition1:08

    Explore partition operator, which returns two observables: values that pass the condition and values that don’t, similar to filter, with deprecation and removal of static creation function in version eight.

  • Pluck1:41

    Pluck transforms each source value to its specified nested property, enabling property extraction; it will be deprecated in version 8 in favor of the map operator.

  • Scan4:49

    Explore the scan operator in RxJS, a running total emitted after each update, unlike reduce. It handles infinite streams, shows intermediate totals, and can map to averages, without a seed.

  • switchScan2:11

    Learn the switchScan operator in rxjs transformation operators. Apply an accumulator that returns an inner observable and emit only the most recent inner observable, like mergeScan but for the latest.

  • switchMap2:46

    This lecture explains the switchMap operator in rxjs, mapping each value to a new observable and switching to it. It cancels previous subscriptions so only the latest inner observable runs.

  • switchMapTo2:33

    Explore how switchMapTo in RxJS transformation operators switches to a new inner observable on each click, restarting intervals and comparing it to switchMap, with a deprecation note.

  • Window2:53

    Explore the RxJS window operator that emits non-overlapping nested observables (windows) based on boundaries, creating a higher-order stream; see a timer-based example with interval, scan, and subscriptions.

  • WindowCount3:53

    Master window count in RxJS transformation operators by turning a source observable into nested windows of fixed size, starting new windows automatically and demonstrating with a third-click example.

  • WindowTime3:19

    The windowTime operator creates new windows from the source observable, which are nested observables, at a creation interval, and each window closes after time span or when the source completes.

  • WindowToggle2:51

    Learn how RxJS windowToggle, a nested observable operator, creates windows from a timer source, opening on intervals and closing on a closing selector emission.

  • WindowWhen3:45

    Explore RxJS windowWhen, which opens non-overlapping windows using a closing selector that returns nested observable. Learn through a from event example where clicks trigger window boundaries and merge combines emissions.

Description

RxJS is a library for composing asynchronous and event-based programs by using observable sequences. It provides one core type, the Observable, satellite types (Observer, Schedulers, Subjects) and operators inspired by Array methods (map, filter, reduce, every, etc) to allow handling asynchronous events as collections.

ReactiveX combines the Observer pattern with the Iterator pattern and functional programming with collections to fill the need for an ideal way of managing sequences of events.

The essential concepts in RxJS which solve async event management are:

  • Observable: represents the idea of an invokable collection of future values or events.

  • Observer: is a collection of callbacks that knows how to listen to values delivered by the Observable.

  • Subscription: represents the execution of an Observable, is primarily useful for cancelling the execution.

  • Operators: are pure functions that enable a functional programming style of dealing with collections with operations like map, filter, concat, reduce, etc.

  • Subject: is equivalent to an EventEmitter, and the only way of multicasting a value or event to multiple Observers.

  • Schedulers: are centralized dispatchers to control concurrency, allowing us to coordinate when computation happens on e.g. setTimeout or requestAnimationFrame or others.

Operators are functions. There are two kinds of operators:

Pipeable Operators are the kind that can be piped to Observables using the syntax observableInstance.pipe(operator()). These include, filter(...), and mergeMap(...). When called, they do not change the existing Observable instance. Instead, they return a new Observable, whose subscription logic is based on the first Observable.

A Pipeable Operator is a function that takes an Observable as its input and returns another Observable. It is a pure operation: the previous Observable stays unmodified.

A Pipeable Operator is essentially a pure function which takes one Observable as input and generates another Observable as output. Subscribing to the output Observable will also subscribe to the input Observable.

Creation Operators are the other kind of operator, which can be called as standalone functions to create a new Observable. For example: of(1, 2, 3) creates an observable that will emit 1, 2, and 3, one right after another. Creation operators will be discussed in more detail in a later section.
