Hi, fellow RxJS streamer! ๐Ÿ‘‹
Today I want to share a JS/TS package that allows you to access props of objects on Observables:
source$.subscribe(o => console.log(o?.a?.b?.c))
// turn โ†‘ into โ†“
source$.a.b.c.subscribe(console.log)
A simple use case: read the
msg
property of each value on the stream
import { proxify } from "rxjs-proxify";
import { of } from "rxjs";

const source = of({ msg: 'Hello' }, { msg: 'World' });
const stream = proxify(source);
stream.msg.subscribe(console.log); // 'Hello', 'World'
โ˜๏ธ 
proxify
 will create a Proxy for given Observable
You can even use JS destruction assignment:
const { msg } = proxify(source);
msg.subscribe(console.log); // 'Hello', 'World'
The package has good TypeScript support, so all props are intelli-sensed by cats, dogs, and IDEs:
import { of } from 'rxjs';
import { proxify } from 'rxjs-proxify';

const source = of({ a:1, b:1 }, { a:2, b:2 });
const stream = proxify(source);
stream. // <- will suggest .a .b .pipe .subscribe etc
๐Ÿ‘€ I can see your intentions
It's also possible to call methods on values (even those using
this
keyword), e.g.:
import { proxify } from "rxjs-proxify";
import { of } from "rxjs";

const source = of({ msg: () => 'Hello' }, { msg: () => 'World' });
const stream = proxify(source);
// calls msg() fn on each value of the stream
stream.msg().subscribe(console.log); // 'Hello', 'World'
๐Ÿคฏ pure magic, I tell you
And you are still free to apply RxJS operators at any depth:
import { proxify } from "rxjs-proxify";
import { of } from "rxjs";
import { scan } from "rxjs/operators";

const source = of({ msg: 'Hello' }, { msg: 'World' });
const stream = proxify(source);
stream.msg.pipe(scan((a, c)=> a + c)).subscribe(console.log); // 'HelloWorld'
Just like regular Observables!
The package uses Proxies under the hood, recursively applying it to sub-properties and method results, so the chain can be indefinitely deep. And you can apply .subscribe or .pipe at any time!

๐ŸŽน Try it

You can install it via 
npm i rxjs-proxify
