This is not specifically a technical question but I was curious what is the best approach to such a problem? Although I have this issue in Knockout, I'm sure the use case will be valid elsewhere too.
Lets say I have subscribed 2 variables, simpleObserve1
, simpleObserve2
so that every time their value changes, they call a function resetAllValues()
.
var simpleObserve1 = ko.observable(0), // initial values
simpleObserve2 = ko.observable(0); // initial values
var resetAllValues = function resetAllValues() {
/* this function takes all observable values and resets them */
{...}
}
simpleObserve1.subscribe(function(){
resetAllValues();
});
simpleObserve2.subscribe(function(){
resetAllValues();
});
simpleObserve1(5); // value changed anywhere in code
simpleObserve2(10); // value changed anywhere in code
2 questions here.
simpleObserve1
and simpleObserve2
. This in turn calls resetAllValues()
over and over again. How do I prevent this from going into an infinite loop? resetAllValues()
only once? I've tried to use the knockout's dispose() method to help me along, but I was wondering if there is a better way to do this.
Deferred Updates might help you out. By using observables' values in a computed, knockout creates a subscription. By extending this computed, rapidly succeeding changes are combined in some sort of micro-task.
They prevent the looping behavior, but it's still kind of unclear how many updates are triggered. Ie: when setting to 5
and 10
results in 1 or 2 computed updates. So I'm not entirely sure if this answers your question.
var i = 0, simpleObserve1 = ko.observable(0), // initial values simpleObserve2 = ko.observable(0); // initial values ko.computed(function resetAllValues() { console.log("Set " + ++i + ", before:"); console.log("1: ", simpleObserve1()); console.log("2: ", simpleObserve2()); simpleObserve1(0); simpleObserve2(0); console.log("Set " + i + ", after:"); console.log("1: ", simpleObserve1()); console.log("2: ", simpleObserve2()); }).extend({ deferred: true }); simpleObserve1(5); // value changed anywhere in code simpleObserve2(10); // value changed anywhere in code

I've created a higher order function acceptXParams
, that will check if the number of params is equal to fn.length
or an arbitrary number. If not, the original function won't be invoked:
function acceptXParams(fn, numOfParams) { var numOfParams = numOfParams === undefined ? fn.length : numOfParams; return function() { if(arguments.length !== numOfParams) { return; } return fn.apply(fn, arguments); } } /** example **/ function sum(a, b, c) { return a + b + c; } var sum3 = acceptXParams(sum); console.log(sum3(1, 2, 3)); console.log(sum3(1, 2)); console.log(sum3(1, 2, 3, 4));
And a more sleek ES6 version acceptXParams
:
const acceptXParams = (fn, numOfParams = fn.length) =>
(...args) =>
args.length === numOfParams ? fn(...args) : undefined;
