Advanced tools
Generate a Callbag from a function. Whenever the function is called, the source will emit what the function returned.
npm install callbag-from-function
const {source, emitter} = fromFunction(someFunc);
Now, whenever you call emitter
with some ...args
, source
will emit what someFunc
returns when called with ...args
.
The emitter
will also return the emitted value.
If no function is passed in, an identity
function will be used.
The source
is "hot" (using callbag-share), meaning it can take many listeners.
Wrapping an action creator in an app with a state stream.
const forEach = require('callbag-for-each');
const fromFunction = require('callbag-from-function');
const newName = str => ({type: 'NEWNAME', value: str});
const {source: newName$, emitter: wrappedNewName} = fromFunction(newName);
const forEach(newName$)(a => console.log("New name:", a.value));
wrappedNewName("Batman"); // New name: Batman
