Example 1: Logging with tap
1
// RxJS v6+
2
import { of } from 'rxjs';
3
import { tap, map } from 'rxjs/operators';
4
5
const source = of(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
6
// transparently log values from source with 'tap'
7
const example = source.pipe(
8
tap(val => console.log(`BEFORE MAP: ${val}`)),
9
map(val => val + 10),
10
tap(val => console.log(`AFTER MAP: ${val}`))
11
);
12
13
//'tap' does not transform values
14
//output: 11...12...13...14...15
15
const subscribe = example.subscribe(val => console.log(val));

Example 2: Using tap with object
1
// RxJS v6+
2
import { of } from 'rxjs';
3
import { tap, map } from 'rxjs/operators';
4
5
const source = of(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
6
7
// tap also accepts an object map to log next, error, and complete
8
const example = source
9
.pipe(
10
map(val => val + 10),
11
tap({
12
next: val => {
13
// on next 11, etc.
14

},
16
error: error => {
17
console.log('on error', error.message);
18
},
19
complete: () => console.log('on complete')
20
})
