Pause RxJS stream based on a value in the stream

Question

I have a simple component with a single button that starts and pauses a stream of numbers generated by RxJS timer.

import { Component, OnInit } from \'@angul         


        

Answer 1

Your example is actually remarkably close to the working solution, no need for new custom operators.

See the section on "Buffering" here:

And the working example here:

It uses the same approach you already have, with bufferToggle and windowToggle, it looks like the main difference is you need to share your pause/active subject-
