Bad Behavior

Super-tiny observable. That's literally all it is.

Why should I use this?

Sometimes RxJs feels like overkill. It is a wonderful library, but sometimes you need a little bit of reactivity, not a whole system of reactivity. This library is an approximation of the BehaviorSubject, one of the most useful Observables out there. In truth, bad-behavior is nothing more than a fancy multi-cast event emitter.

How do I use it?

// if using NPM, import it, otherwise it should already be on window
import BadBehavior from 'bad-behavior'

// create a bad behavior
let obs = BadBehavior()

// subscribe to listen for new values
let sub1 = obs.subscribe(s => { console.log(s)  })
let sub2 = obs.subscribe(s => { console.error(s) })

// call next to publish a new value
obs.next(10)

// unsubscribe to stop listening
sub.unsubscribe()

Why did you build this?

I kept reusing this piece of code to build animation libraries, especially when building micro-libraries. I figured, why not share this little piece of code with everyone? Plus I got sick of copying and pasting it...

Installation
