/**
|
|
* Make a {@link ConnectableObservable} behave like a ordinary observable and automates the way
|
|
* you can connect to it.
|
|
*
|
|
* Internally it counts the subscriptions to the observable and subscribes (only once) to the source if
|
|
* the number of subscriptions is larger than 0. If the number of subscriptions is smaller than 1, it
|
|
* unsubscribes from the source. This way you can make sure that everything before the *published*
|
|
* refCount has only a single subscription independently of the number of subscribers to the target
|
|
* observable.
|
|
*
|
|
* Note that using the {@link share} operator is exactly the same as using the *publish* operator
|
|
* (making the observable hot) and the *refCount* operator in a sequence.

|
|
* ## Example
|
|
*
|
|
* In the following example there are two intervals turned into connectable observables
|
|
* by using the *publish* operator. The first one uses the *refCount* operator, the
|
|
* second one does not use it. You will notice that a connectable observable does nothing
|
|
* until you call its connect function.
|
|
*
|
|
* ```ts
|
|
* import { interval } from 'rxjs';
|
|
* import { tap, publish, refCount } from 'rxjs/operators';
|
|
*
|
|
* // Turn the interval observable into a ConnectableObservable (hot)
|
|
* const refCountInterval = interval(400).pipe(
|
|
* tap((num) => console.log(`refCount ${num}`)),
|
|
* publish(),
|
|
* refCount()
|
|
* );
|
|
*
|
|
* const publishedInterval = interval(400).pipe(
|
|
* tap((num) => console.log(`publish ${num}`)),
|
|
* publish()
|
|
* );
|
|
*
|
|
* refCountInterval.subscribe();
|
|
* refCountInterval.subscribe();
|
|
* // 'refCount 0' -----> 'refCount 1' -----> etc
|
|
* // All subscriptions will receive the same value and the tap (and
|
|
* // every other operator) before the publish operator will be executed
|
|
* // only once per event independently of the number of subscriptions.
|
|
*
|
|
* publishedInterval.subscribe();
|
|
* // Nothing happens until you call .connect() on the observable.
|
|
* ```
