CONNECTIVE facilitates large-scale reactive programming in Type(Java)Script. It enables declarative creation of large and complex data/event flows and supports re-use of flows.

Example (Stackblitz):

import { wrap, map, filter } from '@connectv/core';
import { fromEvent } from 'rxjs';

let a = document.getElementById('a') as HTMLInputElement;
let p = document.getElementById('p');

//
// Will say hello to everyone but 'Donald'.
// For obvious reasons.
//

wrap(fromEvent(a, 'input'))           // --> wrap the `Observable` in a `Pin`
.to(map(() => a.value))               // --> map the event to value of the input
.to(filter(name => name != 'Donald')) // --> filter 'Donald' out
.to(map(name => 'hellow ' + name))    // --> add 'hellow' to the name
.subscribe(msg => p.innerHTML = msg); // --> write it to the <p> element

CONNECTIVE is a thin layer on top of RxJS, so it provides all the toolset of rxjs by proxy. However, while RxJS's API is better suited for short-lived and small flows, CONNECTIVE adds tools better suiting long-living and large/complex flows.

Example (Stackblitz):

import './style.css';

import { wrap, gate, control, map, pin, pipe, group, spread, sink } from '@connectv/core';
import { fromEvent } from 'rxjs';
import { delay, debounceTime } from 'rxjs/operators';

let a = document.getElementById('a') as HTMLInputElement;
let p = document.getElementById('p');

let g = gate();                       // --> gate helps us control the flow of the words

group(control(), g.output)            // --> open the gate every time it outputs something (also once initially)
  .to(pin())                          // --> this relays either gate output or initial `control()` emit
  .to(pipe(delay(500)))               // --> but wait 500ms before opening the gate
  .to(g.control);                     // --> controls when the gate opens up.

wrap(fromEvent(a, 'input'))           // --> wrap the `Observable` in a `Pin`
  .to(pipe(debounceTime(2000)))       // --> debounce for 2 seconds so people are done typing
  .to(map(() => a.value.split(' ')))  // --> map the event to value of input, splitted
  .to(spread())                       // --> spread the array to multiple emissions
  .to(g)                              // --> pass those emissions to the gate
  .to(sink(() => p.classList.add('faded')))    // --> fade the <p> when something comes out of the gate.
  .to(pipe(delay(100)))                        // --> wait 100 ms
  .to(sink(v => p.innerHTML = v))              // --> write the new word
  .to(sink(() => p.classList.remove('faded'))) // --> show the <p> again
  .subscribe();                                // --> bind everything.

Why Use This?

CONNECTIVE provides a different API on top of RxJS that is more suitable for larger and more complex projects. You can read more on this here.
