SignalProducer

public struct SignalProducer<Value, Error> where Error : Error
extension SignalProducer: SignalProducerConvertible, SignalProducerProtocol
extension SignalProducer: BindingSource where Error == Never

A SignalProducer creates Signals that can produce values of type Value and/or fail with errors of type Error. If no failure should be possible, Never can be specified for Error.

SignalProducers can be used to represent operations or tasks, like network requests, where each invocation of start() will create a new underlying operation. This ensures that consumers will receive the results, versus a plain Signal, where the results might be sent before any observers are attached.

Because of the behavior of start(), different Signals created from the producer may see a different version of Events. The Events may arrive in a different order between Signals, or the stream might be completely different!

  • Convert an entity into its equivalent representation as SignalProducer.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public init<T>(_ base: T) where Value == T.Value, Error == T.Error, T : SignalProducerConvertible

    Parameters

    base

    The entity to convert from.

  • Initializes a SignalProducer that will emit the same events as the given signal.

    If the Disposable returned from start() is disposed or a terminating event is sent to the observer, the given signal will be disposed.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public init(_ signal: Signal<Value, Error>)

    Parameters

    signal

    A signal to observe after starting the producer.

  • Initialize a SignalProducer which invokes the supplied starting side effect once upon the creation of every produced Signal, or in other words, for every invocation of startWithSignal(_:), start(_:) and their convenience shorthands.

    The supplied starting side effect would be given (1) an input Observer to emit events to the produced Signal; and (2) a Lifetime to bind resources to the lifetime of the produced Signal.

    The Lifetime of a produced Signal ends when: (1) a terminal event is sent to the input Observer; or (2) when the produced Signal is interrupted via the disposable yielded at the starting call.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public init(_ startHandler: @escaping (Signal<Value, Error>.Observer, Lifetime) -> Void)

    Parameters

    startHandler

    The starting side effect.

  • Creates a producer for a Signal that will immediately send one value then complete.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public init(value: Value)

    Parameters

    value

    A value that should be sent by the Signal in a value event.

  • Creates a producer for a Signal that immediately sends one value, then completes.

    This initializer differs from init(value:) in that its sole value event is constructed lazily by invoking the supplied action when the SignalProducer is started.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public init(_ action: @escaping () -> Value)

    Parameters

    action

    A action that yields a value to be sent by the Signal as a value event.

  • Create a SignalProducer that will attempt the given operation once for each invocation of start().

    Upon success, the started signal will send the resulting value then complete. Upon failure, the started signal will fail with the error that occurred.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public init(_ action: @escaping () -> Result<Value, Error>)

    Parameters

    action

    Declaration

    Swift

    public init(error: Error)

    Parameters

    producer
        .collect { values in values.reduce(0, combine: +) == 8 }
        .startWithValues { print($0) }
    
    observer.send(value: 1)
    observer.send(value: 3)
    observer.send(value: 4)
    observer.send(value: 7)
    observer.send(value: 1)
    observer.send(value: 5)
    observer.send(value: 6)
    observer.sendCompleted()
    
    // Output:

    Seealso

    debounce

    Note

    If multiple values are received before the interval has elapsed, the latest value is the one that will be passed on.

    Note

    If self terminates while a value is being throttled, that value will be discarded and the returned producer will terminate immediately.

    Note

    If the input signal terminates while a value is being throttled, that value will be discarded and the returned signal will terminate immediately.

    Note

    If shouldThrottle completes before the receiver, and its last value is true, the returned signal will remain in the throttled state, emitting no further values until it terminates.

    A scheduler to deliver events on.

    Return Value

    A producer that sends values only while shouldThrottle is false.

  • Forward the latest value on scheduler after at least interval seconds have passed since self last sent a value.

    If self always sends values more frequently than interval seconds, then the returned signal will never send any values.

    To measure from when the returned signal last sent a value, see throttle.

    Seealso

    throttle

    Note

    If multiple values are received before the interval has elapsed, the latest value is the one that will be passed on.

    Note

    If self terminates while a value is being debounced, the behaviour will be determined by discardWhenCompleted. If true, that value will be discarded and the returned producer will terminate immediately. If false, that value will be delivered at the next debounce interval.

    started

    A closure that is invoked after the producer is started.

    event

    A closure that accepts an event and is invoked on every received event.

    failed

    A closure that accepts error object and is invoked for failed event.

    completed

    A closure that is invoked for completed event.

    interrupted

    A closure that is invoked for interrupted event.

    terminated

    A closure that is invoked for any terminating event.

    disposed

    A closure added as disposable when signal completes.

    value

    A closure that accepts a value from value event.

    Return Value

    A producer with attached side-effects for given event cases.

  • Start the returned producer on the given Scheduler.

    Note

    This implies that any side effects embedded in the producer will be performed on the given scheduler as well.

    Note

    Events may still be sent upon other schedulers — this merely affects where the start() method is run.

    Declaration

    Parameters

    scheduler

    A scheduler to deliver events on.

    Result when single completion or failed event is received.

  • Creates a new SignalProducer that will multicast values emitted by the underlying producer, up to capacity. This means that all clients of this SignalProducer will see the same version of the emitted values/errors.

    The underlying SignalProducer will not be started until self is started for the first time. When subscribing to this producer, all previous values (up to capacity) will be emitted, followed by any new values.

    If you find yourself needing the current value (the last buffered value) you should consider using PropertyType instead, which, unlike this operator, will guarantee at compile time that there’s always a buffered value. This operator is not recommended in most cases, as it will introduce an implicit relationship between the original client and the rest, so consider alternatives like PropertyType, or representing your stream using a Signal instead.

    This operator is only recommended when you absolutely need to introduce a layer of caching in front of another SignalProducer.

    Precondition

    capacity must be non-negative integer.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public func replayLazily(upTo capacity: Int) -> SignalProducer<Value, Error>

    Parameters

    capacity

    Number of values to hold.

    Return Value

    A caching producer that will hold up to last capacity values.

    Declaration

    Swift

    public init(_ action: @escaping () throws -> Value)

    Parameters

    operation

    A failable closure.

Available where Error == Never

    error

    Error to send with failed event if self is not completed when interval passes.

    scheudler

    A scheduler to deliver error on.

    Return Value

    A producer that sends events for at most interval seconds, then, if not completed - sends error with failed event on scheduler.
