How can I convert calls to server API, with pagination support, to a Bacon.js / RxJs stream?
For the pagination I want to be able to store the last requested item-index, and ask for the next page_size items from that index to fill the stream.
But I need the 'load next page_size items' method to be called only when all items in stream already been read.
Here is a test that I wrote:
var PAGE_SIZE = 20;
var LAST_ITEM = 100;
var FIRST_ITEM = 0;
function getItemsFromServer(fromIndex) {
if (fromIndex > LAST_ITEM) {
return [];
}
var remainingItemsCount = LAST_ITEM-fromIndex;
if (remainingItemsCount <= PAGE_SIZE) {
return _.range(fromIndex, fromIndex + remainingItemsCount);
}
return _.range(fromIndex, fromIndex + PAGE_SIZE);
}
function makeStream() {
return Bacon.fromBinder(function(sink) {
var fromIndex = FIRST_ITEM;
function loadMoreItems() {
var items = getItemsFromServer(fromIndex);
fromIndex = fromIndex + items.length;
return items;
}
var hasMoreItems = true;
while (hasMoreItems) {
var items = loadMoreItems();
if (items.length < PAGE_SIZE) { hasMoreItems = false; }
_.forEach(items, function(item) { sink(new Bacon.Next(item)); });
}
return function() { console.log('done'); };
});
}
makeStream().onValue(function(value) {
$("#events").append($("<li>").text(value))
});

Currently the 'getItemsFromServer' method is only a dummy and generate items locally. How to combine it with ajax call or a promise that return array of items? and can be execute unknown number of times (depends on the number of items on the server and the page size).
I read the documentation regarding Bacon.fromPromise() but couldn't manage to use it along with the pagination.
You need to use flatMap
to map pages to streams created with Bacon.fromPromise
. Here is a working example, where I use the jsfiddle echo endpoint ( it sends the same data back )
Bacon.sequentially(0, _.range(0,5))
.map(toIndex)
.flatMap(loadFromServer)
.onValue(render)
function toIndex(page) {
return page * PAGE_SIZE
}
function loadFromServer(index) {
var response = getItemsFromServer(index)
return Bacon.fromPromise($.ajax({
type: 'POST',
dataType: 'json',
url: '/echo/json/',
data : { json: JSON.stringify( response ) }
}))
}
function render(items) {
items.forEach(function(item) {
$("#events").append($("<li>").text(item))
})
}

Note: this code relies on responses coming from the server in the same order they were sent.
