How to convert an Observable into a BehaviorSubject?
I'm trying to convert an Observable into a BehaviorSubject. Like this:
a$ = new Observable()
b$ = BehaviorSubject.create(new BehaviorSubject(123), a$)
// 🔴
I have also tried:
a$ = new Observable()
b$ = new BehaviorSubject(a$, 123)
// 🔴
And:
a$ = new Observable()
b$ = a$.asBehaviorSubject(123)
// 🔴
And:
a$ = new Observable()
b$ = a$.pipe(
toBehaviorSubject(123)
)
// 🔴
But none of these works. For now I have to implement like this:
a$ = new Observable()
b$ = new BehaviorSubject(123)
a$.subscribe(b$)
// 🔵
This would be a little bit ugly in a class:
class Foo() {
a$ = new Observable() // Actually, a$ is more complicated than this.
b$ = new BehaviorSubject(123)
constructor() {
this.a$.subscribe(this.b$)
}
}
So, is there a simpler way to convert a Observable to a BehaviorSubject without using class constructor?
This is my real case:
export class Foo {
autoCompleteItems$ = new BehaviorSubject<string>(null)
autoCompleteSelected$ = new BehaviorSubject<number>(-1)
autoCompleteSelectedChange$ = new Subject<'up'|'down'>()
constructor() {
this.autoCompleteItems$.pipe(
switchMap((items) => {
if (!items) return EMPTY
return this.autoCompleteSelectedChange$.pipe(
startWith('down'),
scan<any, number>((acc, value) => {
if (value === 'up') {
if (acc <= 0) {
return items.length - 1
} else {
return acc - 1
}
} else {
if (acc >= items.length - 1) {
return 0
} else {
return acc + 1
}
}
}, -1)
)
})
).subscribe(this.autoCompleteSelected$)
}
doAutoComplete = () => {
const item = this.autoCompleteItems$.value[this.autoCompleteSelected$.value]
// do something with `item`
}
}

Which is the reason you want to convert an Observable to a BehaviourSubject? Is it because you want to have access to the last value? If this is the case you can look atshareReply
or a sequence ofpublishReplay
andrefCount

@Picci Yes. I want to have access to the latest value. Thanks for advise! I'm going to have a look on these APIs.

I have pretty concerns about the use case too. But here it comes a solution, feel free vote down as long you leave feedback too. Since BehaviourSubject
and any other Subject
are Observables
,
import { BehaviorSubject, from } from 'rxjs';
import { map, mergeMap } from 'rxjs/operators';
const source$ = from([1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]);
const bs = new BehaviorSubject('start')
.pipe(
mergeMap(() => source$)
);
bs.subscribe(console.log);

Thanks for answering! Butbs
is still an observable andbs.value
is undefined.😥
