toStream

canStream.toStream( compute )

Creates a stream from a can-compute compute. This stream gets updated whenever the compute value changes.

var compute = require('can-compute');
var canStream = require('can-stream');

var c1 = compute(0);

var resultCompute = canStream.toStream(c1);

resultCompute.onValue(function (val) {
  console.log(val);
});

c1(1);

canStream.toStream( obs, "eventName" )

Creates an event stream with the event objects dispatched on obs for eventName. This is a shorthand for toStreamFromEvent.

var DefineList = require('can-define/list/list');
var canStream = require('can-stream');

var hobbies = new DefineList(["js","kayaking"]);

var changeCount = canStream.toStream(obs, "length").scan(function(prev){
    return prev + 1;
}, 0);
changeCount.onValue(function(event) {
    console.log(event);
});

hobbies.push("bball")
//-> console.logs {type: "add", args: [2,["bball"]]}
hobbies.shift()
//-> console.logs {type: "remove", args: [0,["js"]]}

canStream.toStream( obs, ".propName" )

Creates a stream from an observable property value. This is a shorthand for toStreamFromProperty.

var canStream = require('can-stream');
var DefineMap = require("can-define/map/map");

var person = new DefineMap({
    first: "Justin",
    last: "Meyer"
});

var first = canStream.toStream(person, '.first'),
    last = canStream.toStream(person, '.last');

var fullName = Kefir.combine(first, last, function(first, last){
    return first + last;
});

fullName.onValue(function(newVal){
    console.log(newVal);
});

map.first = "Payal"
//-> console.logs "Payal Meyer"

Create a stream based on a event on an observable property.

canStream.toStream( obs, ".propName eventName" )

Creates a stream from an observable property value. This is a shorthand for the second signature of toStreamFromEvent.

var canStream = require('can-stream');
var DefineMap = require("can-define/map/map");
var DefineList = require("can-define/list/list");

var me = new DefineMap({
    todos: ["mow lawn"]
});

var addStream = canStream.toStream(me, ".todos add");

addStream.onValue(function(event){
    console.log(event);
});

map.todos.push("do dishes");
//-> console.logs {type: "add", args: [1,["do dishes"]]}

Create a stream based on a event on an observable property.
