Implement mergeDelayError about rxphp

[bartvanhoutte]

Something like this perhaps?

final class MergeDelayErrorOperator implements OperatorInterface
{

    private ObservableInterface $subsequentObservable;

    /**
     * MergeDelayErrorOperator constructor.
     *
     * @param ObservableInterface $subsequentObservable
     */
    public function __construct(ObservableInterface $subsequentObservable)
    {
        $this->subsequentObservable = $subsequentObservable;
    }

    public function __invoke(ObservableInterface $observable, ObserverInterface $observer): DisposableInterface
    {
        $errors = [];

        return $observable
          ->materialize()
          ->merge($this->subsequentObservable->materialize())
          ->filter(static function ($event) use (&$errors) {
              $class = get_class($event);

              if ($class === OnErrorNotification::class) {
                  $errors[] = $event;
                  return false;
              } elseif ($class === OnCompletedNotification::class) {
                  return false;
              }

              return true;
          })
          ->dematerialize()
          ->subscribe(
            [$observer, 'onNext'],
            [$observer, 'onError'],
            static function () use ($observer, &$errors) {
                array_map(fn(Notification $n) => $n->accept($observer), $errors);
                $observer->onCompleted();
            }
          );
    }

}

@bartvanhoutte I have tested a couple of ideas. Here is my preferred solution:

Observable::fromArray([$observable1, $observable2])
                ->reduce(function ($a, Observable $o) {
                    $s = new Subject();
                    return [
                        $a[0]->merge($o->catch(function (\Throwable $e) use ($s) {
                            $s->onError($e);
                            return Observable::empty();
                        })),
                        $a[1]->merge($s)
                    ];
                }, [Observable::empty(), Observable::empty()])
                ->flatMap(function ($a) {
                    return $a[0]->concat($a[1]);
                });

Here it is implemented as a function in the Observable class:

    public function mergeDelayError(Observable $o) : Observable {
        return Observable::fromArray([$this, $o])
            ->reduce(function ($a, Observable $o) {
                $s = new Subject();
                return [
                    $a[0]->merge($o->catch(function (\Throwable $e) use ($s) {
                        $s->onError($e);
                        return Observable::empty();
                    })),
                    $a[1]->merge($s)
                ];
            }, [Observable::empty(), Observable::empty()])
            ->flatMap(function ($a) {
                return $a[0]->concat($a[1]);
            });
    }

Below is a test of the solution:

<?php


namespace Rx\Functional\Operator;


use Rx\Functional\FunctionalTestCase;
use Rx\Observable;
use Rx\Subject\Subject;

class MergeDelayErrorTest extends FunctionalTestCase
{
    /**
     * @test
     */
    public function it_waits_for_complete_before_emitting_error()
    {
        $xs = $this->createColdObservable(array(
                                              onNext(100, 4),
                                              onNext(200, 2),
                                              onNext(300, 3),
                                              onNext(400, 1),
                                              onCompleted(500)
                                          ));

        $ys = $this->createColdObservable(array(
                                              onNext(50, 'foo'),
                                              onNext(100, 'bar'),
                                              onNext(150, 'baz'),
                                              onError(160, new \Exception()),
                                              onNext(200, 'qux'),
                                              onCompleted(250)
                                          ));

        $results = $this->scheduler->startWithCreate(function() use ($xs, $ys) {
            $xs->mergeDelayError($ys);
        });

        $this->assertMessages(array(
                                  onNext(250, 'foo'),
                                  onNext(300, 4),
                                  onNext(300, 'bar'),
                                  onNext(350, 'baz'),
                                  onNext(400, 2),
                                  onNext(500, 3),
                                  onNext(600, 1),
                                  onError(700, new \Exception())
                              ), $results->getMessages());

        $this->assertSubscriptions(array(subscribe(200, 700)), $xs->getSubscriptions());
        $this->assertSubscriptions(array(subscribe(200, 360)), $ys->getSubscriptions());
    }
}
