Subscriber

Implements the Observer interface and extends the Subscription class. While the Observer is the public API for consuming the values of an Observable, all Observers get converted to a Subscriber, in order to provide Subscription-like capabilities such as unsubscribe. Subscriber is a common type in RxJS, and crucial for implementing operators, but it is rarely used as a public API.

class Subscriber<T> extends Subscription implements Observer { static create<T>(next?: (x?: T) => void, error?: (e?: any) => void, complete?: () => void): Subscriber<T> constructor(destinationOrNext?: PartialObserver<any> | ((value: T) => void), error?: (e?: any) => void, complete?: () => void) protected isStopped: boolean protected destination: PartialObserver<any> | Subscriber<any> next(value?: T): void error(err?: any): void complete(): void unsubscribe(): void protected _next(value: T): void protected _error(err: any): void protected _complete(): void _unsubscribeAndRecycle(): Subscriber<T> // inherited from index/Subscription static EMPTY: Subscription constructor(unsubscribe?: () => void) closed: [object Object] unsubscribe(): void add(teardown: TeardownLogic): Subscription remove(subscription: Subscription): void }

Static Methods

create()

A static factory for a Subscriber, given a (potentially partial) definition of an Observer.
static create<T>(next?: (x?: T) => void, error?: (e?: any) => void, complete?: () => void): Subscriber<T>

Parameters

next

Optional. Default is undefined.

The next callback of an Observer.
error

Optional. Default is undefined.

The error callback of an Observer.
complete

Optional. Default is undefined.

The complete callback of an Observer.

Returns

Subscriber<T>: A Subscriber wrapping the (partially defined) Observer represented by the given arguments.

Constructor

constructor(destinationOrNext?: PartialObserver<any> | ((value: T) => void), error?: (e?: any) => void, complete?: () => void)

Parameters

destinationOrNext

Optional. Default is undefined.

A partially defined Observer or a next callback function.
error

Optional. Default is undefined.

The error callback of an Observer.
complete

Optional. Default is undefined.

The complete callback of an Observer.

Methods

next()

The Observer callback to receive notifications of type next from the Observable, with a value. The Observable may call this method 0 or more times.
next(value?: T): void

Parameters

value

Optional. Default is undefined.

The next value.

Returns

void:

error()

The Observer callback to receive notifications of type error from the Observable, with an attached Error. Notifies the Observer that the Observable has experienced an error condition.
error(err?: any): void

Parameters

err

Optional. Default is undefined.

The error exception.

Returns

void:

complete()

The Observer callback to receive a valueless notification of type complete from the Observable. Notifies the Observer that the Observable has finished sending push-based notifications.
complete(): void
