rx-context

Still under development.

This angular module is based on Rob Wormald's presentation at the angular meetup in April.

Installation

You can install it like this.

npm install rx-context

Usage

It provides a directive to unwrap and manage an observable.

<div *rxContext="let data on data$">
  {{data.title}}
</div>

This could be done also with the async like this.

{{(data | async)?.title}}

But the rx-content directive can also handle errors, completion of observables with corresponding templates. It also can handle observables that return a null values or are replaced by null

You can use optional ng-template like with *ngIf.

Full example.

<div *rxContext="let data on data$; error errorBlock 
                                    complete completeBlock 
                                    empty emptyBlock">
  {{data.title}} changes with every next()
</div>
<ng-template let-error #errorBlock>
  only show when the observable has an 
  {{error}}
</ng-template>
<ng-template #completeBlock>
  only show when the observable completed
</ng-template>
<ng-template #emptyBlock>
  only show when the observable returns an null value or
  is null
</ng-template>
