[Reactive Extensions](http://reactivex.io) for Lua.
RxLua gives Lua the power of Observables, which are data structures that represent a stream of values that arrive over time. They're very handy when dealing with events, streams of data, asynchronous requests, and concurrency.
Getting Started
---
#### Lua
Copy the `rx.lua` file into your project and require it:
```lua
local rx = require 'rx'
```
You can also install RxLua using luarocks:
```sh
luarocks install bjornbytes/rxlua
```
#### Luvit
Install using `lit`:
```sh
lit install bjornbytes/rx
```
Then require it:
```lua
local rx = require 'rx'
```
#### Love2D
See [RxLove](https://github.com/bjornbytes/RxLove).
Example Usage
---
Use RxLua to construct a simple cheer:
```lua
local Rx = require 'rx'
Rx.Observable.fromRange(1, 8)
:filter(function(x) return x % 2 == 0 end)
:concat(Rx.Observable.of('who do we appreciate'))
:map(function(value) return value .. '!' end)
:subscribe(print)
-- => 2! 4! 6! 8! who do we appreciate!
```
See [examples](examples) for more.
