Rx Observable from an object

[xgrommx]

Hello everyone. Anyone have experience use Rx with objects? Like so:

Rx.Observble.from({a: 1, b: 2}).subscribe(console.log.bind(console));

Also I need something like that https://github.com/baconjs/bacon.js#bacon-combinetemplate. But In Rx this operator doesn't exists.

To the first part of your question use Observable.pairs() instead of from() for objects (note the documentation page is currently missing from the main docs, so you'll have to go here.

To the second, will combineLatest() or withLatestFrom() not work? They appear to be about the same minus some syntactic sugar.

@xgrommx yeah, pairs is the right operator to use as from requires an array-like object with a length property. I will update the docs to include pairs.

@paulpdaniels where is pairs missing from our documents?

Whoa, apparently I need more sleep, I was staring right at them. False alarm I guess.

Thanks! @mattpodwysocki What about Bacon.combineTemplate? Rx has alternative for it? Also I create some interesting example for Rx.Observable.partition http://xgrommx.github.io/rx-book/content/core_objects/observable/observable_instance_methods/partition.html. Also @mattpodwysocki could you please look on this pull request Reactive-Extensions/rx.angular.js#78 (Sorry offtopic)
