Reactive streams & subscription primitives for constructing dataflow graphs / pipelines.
This library provides & uses three key building blocks for reactive programming:
- Stream sources: event targets, iterables, timers, promises,watches, workers, manual-push...
- Subscriptions: chained stream processors, each subscribable (one-tmany) itself
- Transducers: stream transformers, either as individual subscription or to transform incoming values for a single subscription. See packages/transducers) for 100+ composable operators.
- Recursive teardown: Whenever possible, and depending on configuration, unsubscriptions initiate cleanup and propagate to parent(s).
- Workers: highly configurable, web worker integration for concurrent / parallel stream processing (fork-join, tunneled stream processing, etc.)
(No value judgments implied - there's room for both approaches!)
- Streams are not the same as Observables: I.e. stream sources are NOT (often just cannot) re-run for each new sub added. Only the first sub is guaranteed to receive all values. Subs added at a later time MIGHT not receive earlier emitted values, but only the most recent emitted and any future values
- Every subscription supports any number of subscribers, which can be added/removed at any time
- Depending on configuration options, every unsubscription recursively triggers upstream unsubscriptions (provided a parent has no other active child subscriptions)
- Every subscription can have its own transducer transforming incoming values (possibly into multiple new ones)
- Transducers can create streams themselves (only for
merge()
/sync()
) - Transducers can cause early stream termination and subsequent unwinding for its parent and downstream subscriptions.
- Values can be manually injected into the stream pipeline / graph at any point
- Unhandled errors in a subscription will move the subscription into an error state and cause unsubscription from parent (if any). Unhandled errors in stream sources will cancel the stream.
- Much smaller API surface, since most common & custom operations can be solved via available transducers. Therefore there's less of a need to provide specialized functions (map / filter etc.) and gain more flexibility in terms of composing new operations.
- IMHO less confusing naming / terminology (only streams (producers) & subscriptions (consumers))

The CloseMode
enum has been replaced with a more compact & simple string union
type, see docs and
usage.
Completely revised & improved error handling, stronger
distinction between .subscribe()
and .transform()
methods & internal
simplification of their implementations.
-
All error handlers now MUST return a boolean to indicate if the error was recoverable from or should put the subscription into the error state. See error handling for details.
-
The options given to
.transform()
and.map()
can now include anerror
handler:
// transform stream with given transducer(s)
// and forward any errors to `handleError` (user defined fn)
src.transform(xf1, xf2,..., { error: (e) => { ... } });
// or, also new, provide everything as single options object
// (for this version, see note (1) below)
src.transform({ xform: map(...), error: handleError });
- The
.subscribe(sub, xform, opts)
signature has been removed and thexform
(transducer) must now be given as part of the options object:
import { reactive, trace } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
import { filter } from "@thi.ng/transducers";
const src = reactive(1);
// old
src.subscribe(trace("foo"), filter((x) => x < 10), { id: "child-sub" });
// new, see note (1) below
src.subscribe(trace("foo"), { xform: filter((x) => x < 10), id: "child-sub" });
- Added generics for PubSub topics, added
.transformTopic()
and updated signatures for.subscribeTopic()
, both in similarity to above.
import { pubsub } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
import { map } from "@thi.ng/transducers";
type Event = { id: string; value: any; };
const src = pubsub<Event>({ topic: (e) => e.id });
// transform topic stream with given transducer (see note (1) below)
// and forward any errors to `handleError` (user defined fn)
src.transformTopic("foo", map((e) => e.value), { error: handleError })
Notes:
- (1): If using multiple transducers, they must be pre-composed with
comp()
. Other signatures of.transform()
method support up to 4 transducers and composes them automatically.

Since version 3.0.0 all stream and subscription factory functions take an optional object of common configuration options with at least these keys (each optional):
interface CommonOpts {
/**

* will be used.
*/
id: string;
/**
* If false or `"never"`, the stream stays active even if all inputs are

* input is done. If `"first"`, the instance closes when the first input is
* done.
*
* @defaultValue "last"
*/
closeIn: CloseMode;
/**
* If false or `"never"`, the stream stays active once there are no more
* subscribers. If true (default) or `"last"`, the stream closes when the
* last subscriber has unsubscribed. If `"first"`, the instance closes when
* the first subscriber disconnects.
*
* @defaultValue "last"
*/
closeOut: CloseMode;
/**
* If true (default), stream caches last received value and pushes it to new
* subscriberswhen they subscribe. If false, calling `.deref()` on this
* stream will always return `undefined`.
*
* @defaultValue true
*/
cache: boolean;
}
Docs: stream()
Creates a new Stream
instance, optionally with given StreamSource
function
and / or ID. If a src
function is provided, the function will be only called
(with the Stream
instance as single argument) once the first subscriber has
attached to the stream. If the function returns another function, it will be
used for cleanup purposes if the stream is cancelled, e.g. if the last
subscriber has unsubscribed. Streams are intended as (primarily async) data
sources in a dataflow graph and are the primary construct for the various
from*()
functions provided by the package. However, streams can also be
triggered manually (from outside the stream), in which case the user should call
stream.next()
to cause value propagation.
import { stream, trace } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
a = stream<number>((s) => {
s.next(1);
s.next(2);
s.done();
});
a.subscribe(trace("a"));
// a 1
// a 2
// a done
// as reactive value mechanism
b = stream<number>();
// or alternatively
// b = subscription();
b.subscribe(trace("b1"));
b.subscribe(trace("b2"));
// external trigger
b.next(42);
// b1 42
// b2 42
Stream
(like all other types of Subscription
) implements the @thi.ng/api
IDeref
interface
which provides read access to a stream's last received value. This is useful for
various purposes, e.g. in combination with @thi.ng/hdom, which supports direct
embedding of streams (i.e. their values) into UI components (and will be deref'd
automatically). If the stream has not yet emitted a value or if the stream is
already done, it will deref to undefined
.
Furthermore, all subscription types can be configured (via the cache
option)
to NOT retain their last emitted value, in which case .deref()
will always
return undefined
.
Docs: subscription()
Creates a new Subscription
instance, the fundamental datatype & building block
provided by this package (Stream
s are Subscription
s too). Subscriptions can
be:
- linked into directed graphs (if async, not necessarily DAGs)
- transformed using transducers (incl. early termination)
- can have any number of subscribers (optionally each w/ their own transducer)
- recursively unsubscribe themselves from parent after their last subscriber unsubscribed
- will go into a non-recoverable error state if NONE of the subscribers has an error handler itself
- implement the @thi.ng/api
IDeref
interface
import { subscription, trace } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
import { filter } from "@thi.ng/transducers";
// as reactive value mechanism (same as with stream() above)
s = subscription<any, any>();
s.subscribe(trace("s1"));
s.subscribe(trace("s2"), filter((x) => x > 25));
// external trigger
s.next(23);
// s1 23
// (s2 doesn't receive value here due to its filter)
s.next(42);
// s2 42
// s1 42

Docs: metaStream()
MetaStream
s are streams of streams. A MetaStream
is a subscription type
which transforms each incoming value into a new stream, subscribes to it (via an
hidden / internal subscription) and then only passes values from that stream to
its own subscribers. If a new value is received, the meta stream first
unsubscribes from the possibly still active stream created from the previous
input, before creating and subscribing to the new stream. Hence this stream type
is useful for cases where streams need to be dynamically and invisibly created &
inserted into an existing dataflow topology without changing it, and with the
guarantee that never more than one of these is active at the same time. Similar
behavior (without the restriction in number) can be achieved using merge()
(see further below).
The user supplied factory
function will be called for each incoming value and
is responsible for creating the new stream instances. If the function returns
null
/ undefined
, no further action will be taken (acts like a filter
transducer, i.e. the incoming value is simply ignored).
import { metastream, fromIterable, trace } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
import { repeat } from "@thi.ng/transducers";
// transform each received odd number into a stream
// producing 3 copies of that number in the metastream
// even numbers are ignored
a = metastream<number, string>(
(x) => (x & 1)
? fromIterable(repeat("odd: " + x, 3), { delay: 100 })
: null
);
a.subscribe(trace())
a.next(23)
// odd: 23
// odd: 23
// odd: 23
a.next(42) // not odd, ignored by meta factory fn
a.next(43)
// odd: 43
// odd: 43
// odd: 43
The factory function does NOT need to create new streams, but too can merely return other existing streams, and so making the meta stream act like a switch / stream selector.
If the meta stream is the only subscriber to these input streams, you'll need to
use the closeOut: "never"
option when creating the inputs. This keeps them
alive and allows for dynamic switching between them.
import { metastream, fromIterable, trace } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
import { repeat } from "@thi.ng/transducers";
// infinite inputs
a = fromIterable(
repeat("a"),
{ delay: 1000, closeOut: "never" }
);
b = fromIterable(
repeat("b"),
{ delay: 1000, closeOut: "never" }
);
// stream selector / switch
m = metaStream((x) => x ? a : b);
m.subscribe(trace("meta from: "));
m.next(true);
// meta from: a
m.next(false);
// meta from: b
m.next(true);
// meta from: a
Docs: merge()
Returns a new StreamMerge
instance, a subscription type consuming inputs from
multiple inputs and passing received values on to any subscribers. Input streams
can be added and removed dynamically. By default, StreamMerge
calls done()
when the last active input is done, but this behavior can be overridden via the
closeIn
option.
import { merge, fromIterable, trace } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
merge({
// input streams w/ different frequencies
src: [
fromIterable([1, 2, 3], { delay: 10 }),
fromIterable([10, 20, 30], { delay: 21 }),
fromIterable([100, 200, 300], { delay: 7 })
]
}).subscribe(trace());
// 100
// 1
// 200
// 10
// 2
// 300
// 3
// 20
// 30
Use the labeled()
transducer for
each input to create a stream of labeled values and track their provenance:
import { merge, fromIterable, trace } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
import { labeled } from "@thi.ng/transducers";
merge({
src: [
fromIterable([1, 2, 3]).transform(labeled("a")),
fromIterable([10, 20, 30]).transform(labeled("b")),
]
}).subscribe(trace());
// ["a", 1]
// ["b", 10]
// ["a", 2]
// ["b", 20]
// ["a", 3]
// ["b", 30]
See StreamMergeOpts for further reference of the various behavior options.
If the StreamMerge
receives a Subscription
-like value from any of its
inputs, it will not be processed as usual, but instead will be added as new
input to the merge and then automatically remove once that stream is exhausted.
import { merge, stream, fromIterable, trace } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
import { repeat } from "@thi.ng/transducers";
// stream source w/ transducer mapping values to new streams
a = stream().map((x) => fromIterable(repeat(x, 3)));
// simple 1Hz counter
b = fromInterval(1000).map((x) => "b" + x);
merge({ src: [a, b] }).subscribe(trace());
// 0
// 1
// 2
// sent "a" will be transformed into stream via above transducer
// and then auto-added as new input to the StreamMerge
a.next("abc");
// abc
// abc
// abc
// 3
// 4
Docs: sync()
Similar to StreamMerge
above, but with extra synchronization of inputs. Before
emitting any new values, StreamSync
collects values until at least one has
been received from all inputs. Once that's the case, the collected values are
sent as labeled tuple object to downstream subscribers. Each value in the
emitted tuple objects is stored under their input stream's ID. Only the last
value received from each input is passed on. After the initial tuple has been
emitted, you can choose from two possible behaviors:
- Any future change in any input will produce a new result tuple. These tuples will retain the most recently read values from other inputs. This behavior is the default and illustrated in the above schematic.
- If the
reset
option istrue
, every input will have to provide at least one new value again until another result tuple is produced.
Any done inputs are automatically removed. By default, StreamSync
calls
done()
when the last active input is done, but this behavior can be overridden
via the closeIn
option.
import { sync, stream, trace } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
const a = stream();
const b = stream();
s = sync<any,any>({ src: { a, b } }).subscribe(trace("result: "));
a.next(1);
b.next(2);
// result: { a: 1, b: 2 }
Input streams can be added and removed dynamically and the emitted tuple size adjusts to the current number of inputs (the next time a value is received from any input).
If the reset
option is enabled, the last emitted tuple is allowed to be
incomplete, by default. To only allow complete tuples, also set the all
option
to false
.
The synchronization is done via the
partitionSync()
transducer from the
@thi.ng/transducers
package. See this function's docs for further details.
See StreamSyncOpts for further reference of the various behavior options.
Docs: pubsub()
Topic based stream splitter. Applies topic
function to each received value and
only forwards it to child subscriptions for returned topic. The actual topic
(return value from topic
fn) can be of any type, apart from undefined
.
Complex topics (e.g objects / arrays) are allowed and they're matched with
registered topics using @thi.ng/equiv by default (but customizable via equiv
option). Each topic can have any number of subscribers.
If a transducer is specified for the PubSub
, it is always applied prior to
passing the input to the topic function. I.e. in this case the topic function
will receive the transformed inputs.
PubSub supports dynamic topic subscriptions and unsubscriptions via
subscribeTopic()
and unsubscribeTopic()
. However, the standard
subscribe()
/ unsubscribe()
methods are NOT supported (since meaningless
here) and will throw an error! unsubscribe()
can only be called WITHOUT
argument to unsubscribe the entire PubSub
instance (incl. all topic
subscriptions) from the parent stream.
Docs: bisect()
Returns a new PubSub
instance using given predicate pred
as boolean topic
function and a
& b
as subscribers for truthy (a
) and falsy b
values.
import { bisect, fromIterable, trace } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
fromIterable([1, 2, 3, 4]).subscribe(
bisect((x) => !!(x & 1), trace("odd"), trace("even"))
);
// odd 1
// even 2
// odd 3
// even 4
// odd done
// even done
If a
or b
need to be subscribed to directly, then a
/ b
MUST be first
created as Subscription
(if not already) and a reference kept prior to calling
bisect()
.
import { bisect, fromIterable, subscription, trace } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
const odd = subscription();
const even = subscription();
odd.subscribe(trace("odd"));
odd.subscribe(trace("odd x10"), tx.map((x) => x * 10));
even.subscribe(trace("even"));
fromIterable([1, 2, 3, 4]).subscribe(bisect((x) => !!(x & 1), odd, even));
// odd x10 10
// odd 1
// even 2
// odd x10 30
// odd 3
// even 4
// odd done
// odd x10 done
// even done
Docs: sidechainPartition()
Buffers values from src
until side chain fires, then emits buffer (unless
empty) and repeats process until either input is done. By default, the value
read from the side chain is ignored, however the optional predicate can be used
to only trigger for specific values / conditions.
import {
merge, fromEvent, fromRAF,
sidechainPartition, trace
} from "@thi.ng/rstream";
// queue event processing to only execute during the
// requestAnimationFrame cycle (RAF)
sidechainPartition(
// merge various event streams
merge([
fromEvent(document, "mousemove"),
fromEvent(document, "mousedown"),
fromEvent(document, "mouseup")
]),
// sidechain control stream
fromRAF()
).subscribe(trace());
Since v8.0.0 there's
syncRAF()
,
which allows the above to be simplified to:
import { merge, fromEvent, syncRAF, trace } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
syncRAF(
merge([
fromEvent(document, "mousemove"),
fromEvent(document, "mousedown"),
fromEvent(document, "mouseup")
])
).subscribe(trace());
Docs: sidechainToggle()
Filters values from input based on values received from side chain. By default, the value read from the side chain is ignored, however the optional predicate can be used to only trigger for specific values/conditions. Every time the predicate fn returns true, the filter will be toggled on/off. Whilst switched off, no input values will be forwarded.
import { sidechainToggle, fromInterval, trace } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
// use slower interval stream to toggle faster main stream on/off
sidechainToggle(fromInterval(500), fromInterval(1000)).subscribe(trace());
// 0
// 3
// 4
// 7
// 8
...
Docs: sidechainTrigger()
Buffers the most recent value received and only forwards it downstream whenever a new control value is received from the sidechain.
import { sidechainTrigger, reactive, stream, trace } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
const src = reactive("payload");
const side = stream();
sidechainTrigger(src, side).subscribe(trace("data:"));
side.next(1);
// data: payload
// every time sidechain triggers
side.next(1);
// data: payload
// only newest value will be buffered
src.next("update #1");
src.next("update #2");
// ...until side chain triggers again
side.next(1);
// data: update #2
Docs: forkJoin()
const $self: Worker = <any>self;
self.addEventListener("message", (e) => {
const { buf, factor } = e.data;
$self.postMessage(buf.map((x) => x * factor));
});
import { forkJoin, trace } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
const src = stream<number[]>();
// fork worker jobs & re-join results
forkJoin({
src: src,
// worker job preparation
// this function is called for each worker ID and the results
// of that function are the messages sent to the workers...
fork: (id, numWorkers, buf) => {
const size = (buf.length / numWorkers) | 0;
return {
buf: id < numWorkers - 1

};
},
// re-join worker results

// default: navigator.hardwareConcurrency
numWorkers: 4
}).subscribe(trace("results"));
src.next(new Array(16).fill(1));
// result: [0, 0, 0, 0, 10, 10, 10, 10, 20, 20, 20, 20, 30, 30, 30, 30]

Detailed information, discussion & diagrams about the new error handling can be found in this issue
The ISubscriber
interface supports optional error handlers which will be
called if code in the next()
or done()
handlers throws an error. If no error
handler is defined for a subscriber, the wrapping Subscription
's own error
handler will be called, which might put this subscription into an error state
and stop it from receiving new values.
import { subscription, State } from "@thi.ng/rstream";
src = subscription({ next(x) { throw x; } });
// triggers error, caught by subscription wrapper
src.next(1);
// sub-0 unhandled error: 1
src.getState() === State.ERROR
// true
// no error, but also inputs won't be received/processed either
src.next(2)
// another sub with error handler & indicating error could be handled
src = subscription({
next(x) { throw x; },
error(x) { console.warn("eeek", x); return true; }
});
