如何在子实体中链接父级 - ngrx、ngrx/data

Question

I'm building an Angular app for a Travel Agency. In a hotel listing page, I need to show Country and City of the hotel. I'm getting Country, City and Hotel data from ngrx/data EntityService.

If I use nested subscription it work fine, but I'm sure there's a better of way of doing this.

Here's my current implementation

 this.countryService.entities$.pipe(map((countries: Country[]) => countries)).subscribe((countries) => { this.countries = countries; this.cityService.entities$.pipe(map((cities) => cities)).subscribe((cities) => { this.cities = cities; this.hotelService.entities$.pipe(map((hotels) => hotels)).subscribe((hotels) => { this.hotels = hotels.map((hotel) => { return { ...hotel, country: this.countries.find((c) => c.id === hotel.countryId), city: this.cities.find((c) => c.id === hotel.cityId), }; }); }); }); });

Could anybody sugget a better alternative for the above solution

Answer 1

you can use the zip operator to combine the observables. There are a few others as well liek combineLatest, merge etc. Have a read of the official documents and decide which one you want to use for yourself.

 zip(this.countryService.entities$, this.cityService.entities$, this.hotelService.entities$).pipe(map(response => {
       return {
         countries: response[0],
         cities: response[1],
         hotels: response[2],
       };
    }).subscribe((respObj: {countries: Countries[], cities: Cities[], hotels: Hotels[]}) => {
       this.countries = respObj.countries;
       this.cities = respObj.cities;
       this.hotels = respObj.this.hotels;
    }));

PS: this is untested code. just have refactored.

I would use the rxjs combineLatest operator for subscribing to multiple observable. Following is the illustration of your code using combineLatest operator.

combineLatest([
    this.countryService.entities$,
    this.cityService.entities$,
    this.hotelService.entities$
]).subscribe(([countries, cities, hotels]) => {
    this.countries = countries;
    this.cities = cities;
    this.hotels = hotels.map((hotel) => {
        return {
            ...hotel,
            country: this.countries.find((c) => c.id === hotel.countryId),
            city: this.cities.find((c) => c.id === hotel.cityId)
        }
    });
});
