This page shows operators with which you can transform items that are emitted by an Observable.

  • map( ) — transform the items emitted by an Observable by applying a function to each of them
  • flatMap( ), concatMap( ), and flatMapIterable( ) — transform the items emitted by an Observable into Observables (or Iterables), then flatten this into a single Observable
  • switchMap( ) — transform the items emitted by an Observable into Observables, and mirror those items emitted by the most-recently transformed Observable
  • scan( ) — apply a function to each item emitted by an Observable, sequentially, and emit each successive value
  • groupBy( ) — divide an Observable into a set of Observables that emit groups of items from the original Observable, organized by key
  • buffer( ) — periodically gather items from an Observable into bundles and emit these bundles rather than emitting the items one at a time
  • window( ) — periodically subdivide items from an Observable into Observable windows and emit these windows rather than emitting the items one at a time
  • cast( ) — cast all items from the source Observable into a particular type before reemitting them
