如何设置Rx.Observable.fromEvent以使用jQuery过滤事件

Question

There are lots of examples of Rx.Observable.fromEvent(element, eventName) using a jquery selection as the element to capture events from. However is it possible for Rx listen to only events from a filtered event setup with jQuery?

//Bind the event on body but only respond to events that match the filter
$('body').on('click', '.aClass div .something', function () {...});

//Bind to 'body' but only respond to events from the binding above
Rx.Observable.fromEvent(/*something here?*/);

I have come up with something effectively similar but it seems like it would be much more costly than the jquery filter.

Rx.Observable.fromEvent($('body'), 'click')
.filter(function (e) {
  return $(e.target).is('.aClass div .something');
})
.subscribe(function () {...});

Is there some way I could turn the jQuery binding into an emitter and use that event stream with Rx? What's the best approach?

Answer 1

see http://jsfiddle.net/ktzk1bh3/2/

HTML:

<div class="aClass">
    <div>
        <a class="something">Click me</a>
    </div>
</div>

Javascript:

//Bind to 'body' but only respond to events from the binding above
var source = Rx.Observable.create(function(o) {
    $('body').on('click', '.aClass div .something', function(ev) {
        o.onNext(ev);
    })
});

var sub = source.subscribe(function(ev) { console.log("click", ev) });

You can use Rx.Observable.fromEventPattern .

Rx.Observable.fromEventPattern(
  function add(handler) {
    $('body').on('click', '.aClass div .something', handler);
  },
  function remove(handler) {
    $('body').off('click', '.aClass div .something', handler);
  }
);

This way it will automatically remove event handler on unsubscribe from observable subscription.

<div class='radios'>
  <input type='radio' name='r' value='PM'>PM
  <input type='radio' name='r' value='PCE'>PCE
  <input type='radio' name='r' value='PCS'>PCS
</div>
<textarea class='textarea'>

</textarea>

Rx.Observable.fromEvent(document.querySelector('.radios'),'click')
.subscribe((e)=>console.log(e.target.value));
