RxJS loading indicator on any ajax request

I need to show a loading indicator any time an ajax request occurs. Based on this question RxJs How to set default request headers? I believe I'll have to create an ajax wrapper to use.



My requirements are to start the loading indicator when a request occurs. It can start again if there is already a request running. When a request completes/errors, I need the loading to go away. It should only go away if all requests have completed though.



In axios I just use interceptors and have a counter. It's pretty simple. I really have no clue how to handle this with RxJS though. My guess would be it needs to do something similar, I just really don't know how to write it.

          Build a custom HTTP client that exposes a loading BehaviorSubject. Every time a connection is opened increment the count and decrement the count each time a connection finishes. Have your loading indicator show when the connection count is greater than 0 and hide when it is 0.






          class HttpClient {
          constructor() {
          this.connectionCount$ = new rxjs.BehaviorSubject(0);
          this.loading$ = new rxjs.BehaviorSubject(false);
          }

          incrementConnectionCount() {
          this.connectionCount$.next(this.connectionCount$.getValue() + 1);
          if (this.connectionCount$.getValue() === 1) {
          this.loading$.next(true);
          }
          }

          decrementConnectionCount() {
          this.connectionCount$.next(this.connectionCount$.getValue() - 1);
          if (this.connectionCount$.getValue() === 0) {
          this.loading$.next(false);
          }
          }

          get(url) {
          this.incrementConnectionCount();
          setTimeout(() => { // Simulate a http call that takes 2 seconds
          this.decrementConnectionCount();
          }, 2000);
          }

          // Do the same for the other verbs, put, post, delete etc
          }

          const httpClient = new HttpClient();

          // Anywhere you want a loading spinner subscribe to the loading observable and show and hide the spinner
          httpClient.loading$.subscribe(loading => {
          document.getElementById('loading').style.display = loading ? 'block' : 'none';
          });

          // Show the connection count
          httpClient.connectionCount$.subscribe(connectionCount => {
          document.getElementById('connectionCount').innerText = connectionCount;
          });

          // Each time you click the button you will simulate a http get that takes two seconds, press it multople times and it will show for 2 seconds after the last click
          document.getElementById('load').addEventListener('click', () => {
          httpClient.get('someUrl');
          });

          #loading {

          Build a custom HTTP client that exposes a loading BehaviorSubject. Every time a connection is opened increment the count and decrement the count each time a connection finishes. Have your loading indicator show when the connection count is greater than 0 and hide when it is 0.






          class HttpClient {

          • In rxjs.ajax? Are you referring to the .NET version of Rx? I'm using RxJS, the JavaScript version.

          • Assumed you were using Angular but realise that there is nothing in your post to suggest that.

          • I gave you the skeleton code for a generic http client with a loading observable. Just replace the timeout with a real http call.

          • When doing an actual ajax call, how do I know when it's complete? Do I subscribe to the response in the HttpClient and return that?

          Build a custom HTTP client that exposes a loading BehaviorSubject. Every time a connection is opened increment the count and decrement the count each time a connection finishes. Have your loading indicator show when the connection count is greater than 0 and hide when it is 0.






          class HttpClient {
          constructor() {
          this.connectionCount$ = new rxjs.BehaviorSubject(0);
          this.loading$ = new rxjs.BehaviorSubject(false);
          }

          incrementConnectionCount() {
          this.connectionCount$.next(this.connectionCount$.getValue() + 1);
          if (this.connectionCount$.getValue() === 1) {
          this.loading$.next(true);
          }
          }

          decrementConnectionCount() {
          this.connectionCount$.next(this.connectionCount$.getValue() - 1);
          if (this.connectionCount$.getValue() === 0) {
          this.loading$.next(false);
          }
          }

          get(url) {
          this.incrementConnectionCount();
          setTimeout(() => { // Simulate a http call that takes 2 seconds
          this.decrementConnectionCount();
          }, 2000);
          }

          // Do the same for the other verbs, put, post, delete etc
          }

          const httpClient = new HttpClient();

          // Anywhere you want a loading spinner subscribe to the loading observable and show and hide the spinner
          httpClient.loading$.subscribe(loading => {
          document.getElementById('loading').style.display = loading ? 'block' : 'none';
          });

          // Show the connection count
          httpClient.connectionCount$.subscribe(connectionCount => {
          document.getElementById('connectionCount').innerText = connectionCount;

          • In rxjs.ajax? Are you referring to the .NET version of Rx? I'm using RxJS, the JavaScript version.

          • Assumed you were using Angular but realise that there is nothing in your post to suggest that.

          • I gave you the skeleton code for a generic http client with a loading observable. Just replace the timeout with a real http call.

          • When doing an actual ajax call, how do I know when it's complete? Do I subscribe to the response in the HttpClient and return that?

          Build a custom HTTP client that exposes a loading BehaviorSubject. Every time a connection is opened increment the count and decrement the count each time a connection finishes. Have your loading indicator show when the connection count is greater than 0 and hide when it is 0.






          class HttpClient {
          constructor() {
          this.connectionCount$ = new rxjs.BehaviorSubject(0);
          this.loading$ = new rxjs.BehaviorSubject(false);
          }

          incrementConnectionCount() {
          this.connectionCount$.next(this.connectionCount$.getValue() + 1);
          if (this.connectionCount$.getValue() === 1) {
          this.loading$.next(true);
          }
          }

          decrementConnectionCount() {
          this.connectionCount$.next(this.connectionCount$.getValue() - 1);
          if (this.connectionCount$.getValue() === 0) {
          this.loading$.next(false);
          }
          }

          get(url) {
          this.incrementConnectionCount();
          setTimeout(() => { // Simulate a http call that takes 2 seconds
          this.decrementConnectionCount();
          }, 2000);
          }

          // Do the same for the other verbs, put, post, delete etc
          }

          const httpClient = new HttpClient();

          // Anywhere you want a loading spinner subscribe to the loading observable and show and hide the spinner
          httpClient.loading$.subscribe(loading => {
          document.getElementById('loading').style.display = loading ? 'block' : 'none';
          });

          // Show the connection count
          httpClient.connectionCount$.subscribe(connectionCount => {
          document.getElementById('connectionCount').innerText = connectionCount;
          });

          // Each time you click the button you will simulate a http get that takes two seconds, press it multople times and it will show for 2 seconds after the last click
          document.getElementById('load').addEventListener('click', () => {
          httpClient.get('someUrl');
          });

          Build a custom HTTP client that exposes a loading BehaviorSubject. Every time a connection is opened increment the count and decrement the count each time a connection finishes. Have your loading indicator show when the connection count is greater than 0 and hide when it is 0.






          class HttpClient {
          constructor() {
          this.connectionCount$ = new rxjs.BehaviorSubject(0);
          this.loading$ = new rxjs.BehaviorSubject(false);
          }

          incrementConnectionCount() {
          this.connectionCount$.next(this.connectionCount$.getValue() + 1);
          if (this.connectionCount$.getValue() === 1) {
          this.loading$.next(true);
          }
          }

          decrementConnectionCount() {
          this.connectionCount$.next(this.connectionCount$.getValue() - 1);
          if (this.connectionCount$.getValue() === 0) {
          this.loading$.next(false);
          }
          }

          get(url) {
          this.incrementConnectionCount();
          setTimeout(() => { // Simulate a http call that takes 2 seconds
          this.decrementConnectionCount();
          }, 2000);
          }

          // Do the same for the other verbs, put, post, delete etc
          }

          const httpClient = new HttpClient();

          // Anywhere you want a loading spinner subscribe to the loading observable and show and hide the spinner
          httpClient.loading$.subscribe(loading => {
          document.getElementById('loading').style.display = loading ? 'block' : 'none';
          });

          // Show the connection count
          httpClient.connectionCount$.subscribe(connectionCount => {
          document.getElementById('connectionCount').innerText = connectionCount;
          });

          // Each time you click the button you will simulate a http get that takes two seconds, press it multople times and it will show for 2 seconds after the last click
          document.getElementById('load').addEventListener('click', () => {
          httpClient.get('someUrl');
          });
