The input is a function `func` with some parameters, but the * last parameter must be a callback function that `func` calls when it is * done. The callback function is expected to follow Node.js conventions, * where the first argument to the callback is an error object, signaling * whether call was successful. If that object is passed to callback, it means * something went wrong. * * The output of `bindNodeCallback` is a function that takes the same * parameters as `func`, except the last one (the callback). When the output * function is called with arguments, it will return an Observable. * If `func` calls its callback with error parameter present, Observable will * error with that value as well. If error parameter is not passed, Observable will emit * second parameter. If there are more parameters (third and so on), * Observable will emit an array with all arguments, except first error argument. * * Note that `func` will not be called at the same time output function is, * but rather whenever resulting Observable is subscribed. By default call to * `func` will happen synchronously after subscription, but that can be changed * with proper `scheduler` provided as optional third parameter. {@link SchedulerLike} * can also control when values from callback will be emitted by Observable. * To find out more, check out documentation for {@link bindCallback}, where * {@link SchedulerLike} works exactly the same. * * As in {@link bindCallback}, context (`this` property) of input function will be set to context * of returned function, when it is called. * * After Observable emits value, it will complete immediately. This means * even if `func` calls callback again, values from second and consecutive * calls will never appear on the stream. If you need to handle functions * that call callbacks multiple times, check out {@link fromEvent} or * {@link fromEventPattern} instead. * * Note that `bindNodeCallback` can be used in non-Node.js environments as well. * "Node.js-style" callbacks are just a convention, so if you write for * browsers or any other environment and API you use implements that callback style, * `bindNodeCallback` can be safely used on that API functions as well. * * Remember that Error object passed to callback does not have to be an instance * of JavaScript built-in `Error` object. In fact, it does not even have to an object. * Error parameter of callback function is interpreted as "present", when value * of that parameter is truthy. It could be, for example, non-zero number, non-empty * string or boolean `true`. In all of these cases resulting Observable would error * with that value. This means usually regular style callbacks will fail very often when * `bindNodeCallback` is used. If your Observable errors much more often then you * would expect, check if callback really is called in Node.js-style and, if not, * switch to {@link bindCallback} instead. * * Note that even if error parameter is technically present in callback, but its value * is falsy, it still won't appear in array emitted by Observable. * * ## Examples * ### Read a file from the filesystem and get the data as an Observable * ```ts * import * as fs from 'fs'; * const readFileAsObservable = bindNodeCallback(fs.readFile); * const result = readFileAsObservable('./roadNames.txt', 'utf8'); * result.subscribe(x => console.log(x), e => console.error(e)); * ``` * * ### Use on function calling callback with multiple arguments * ```ts * someFunction((err, a, b) => { * console.log(err); // null * console.log(a); // 5 * console.log(b); // "some string" * }); * const boundSomeFunction = bindNodeCallback(someFunction); * boundSomeFunction() * .subscribe(value => { * console.log(value); // [5, "some string"] * }); * ``` * * ### Use on function calling callback in regular style * ```ts * someFunction(a => { * console.log(a); // 5 * }); * const boundSomeFunction = bindNodeCallback(someFunction); * boundSomeFunction() * .subscribe( * value => {} // never gets called * err => console.log(err) // 5 * ); * ``` * * @see {@link bindCallback} * @see {@link from} * * @param {function} func Function with a Node.js-style callback as the last parameter. * @param {SchedulerLike} [scheduler] The scheduler on which to schedule the * callbacks. * @return {function(...params: *): Observable} A function which returns the * Observable that delivers the same values the Node.js callback would * deliver. */ export function bindNodeCallback( callbackFunc: (...args: [...any[], (err: any, ...res: any) => void]) => void, resultSelector?: ((...args: any[]) => any) | SchedulerLike, scheduler?: SchedulerLike ): (...args: any[]) => Observable { return bindCallbackInternals(true, callbackFunc, resultSelector, scheduler); }
