# vertx3-eventbus-rx-client

[RxJS](http://reactivex.io/rxjs/) powered Event Bus client for [Vert.x 3](http://vertx.io/).

This library:
- Offers an API similar to Rxified server counterpart.
- Includes Typescript definitions and provides interfaces for data models (Message, CloseEvent etc.).
- Wraps the official client without side effects, thus can be used together with the official client by providing it as a delegate to the constructor.
- Helps to prevent memory leaks by unsubscribing on disconnect or close (or after receiving a reply in case of rxSend).
- Does not provide features like send with timeout, auto-resubscription etc. because these are trivial to implement with rxjs operators and subjects.

## Getting Started

### Installation

install using npm:
```
npm install vertx3-eventbus-rx-client --save
```

### Peer Dependencies

Make sure you have RxJS 5 and official event bus client (version 3.4.x) as dependencies in your project, or install them as follows:
```
npm install [email protected] --save
```
```
npm install rxjs --save
```

### Usage

import as ES module:
```javascript
import { EventBus } from 'vertx3-eventbus-rx-client';

const eb = EventBus.create('server-address');
```

import as CommonJS module:
```javascript
const RxEB = require('vertx3-eventbus-rx-client');

const eb = RxEB.EventBus.create('server-address');
```

## API
Creating an instance:
```javascript
// by using factory method
const eb = EventBus.create('server-url');

// by wrapping an existing non-Rxified eventbus object
const eb = new EventBus(delegateEB);
```

EventBus state:
```javascript
let ebState;

// get current state
ebState = eb.state;

// get current state and future changes
eb.state$.subscribe(
state => {
ebState = state;
}
);
```

Sending messages:
```javascript
const message = {};
// send a message
eb.send('address', message);

// send and expect a reply
eb.rxSend('address', message).subscribe(
reply => {
// received a reply
},
error => {
// received an error
}
);
```

Message consumer:
```javascript

// register consumer
const subscription = eb.rxConsumer('address').subscribe(
message => {
// received a message
}
);

// un-register consumer
subscription.unsubscribe();
```

Getting close event:
```javascript

// get close event
eb.closeEvent;

// close event is null until State is CLOSED
eb.state$.subscribe(
state => {
if (state !== State.CLOSED) {
console.log(eb.closeEvent); // null
} else {
console.log(eb.closeEvent); // NOT null. Refer to CloseEvent docs on the link below.
}
}
);
```

## Testing

Run unit tests with:
```
npm run test
```
End-to-end tests should be run against the [Test Server](https://github.com/hcsalis/vertx3-eventbus-rx-client-test-server). Once it is up and running, start the tests with this command:
```
npm run e2e
```
