Nice F# Syntax for Rx (Reactive Extensions)

Here's a link to a nice F#-Rx sample showing how to get a very nice syntax for Reactive Extensions by using F# LINQ computation expressions. (If you know Rx users who haven't yet discovered F#, this might get them interested!)

open System.Linq

type rxBuilder() =    

    member this.Bind ((xs:'a IObservable), (f:'a -> 'b IObservable)) =

        Observable.SelectMany (xs, f)

    member this.Delay f = Observable.Defer f

    member this.Return x = Observable.Return x

    member this.ReturnFrom xs = xs

    member this.Combine (xs:'a IObservable, ys: 'a IObservable) =

        Observable.Concat (xs, ys)

    member this.For (xs : 'a seq, f: 'a -> 'b IObservable) =

        Observable.For(xs, new Func<_, IObservable<_>>(f)) 

    member this.TryFinally (xs: 'a IObservable, f : unit -> unit) =

        Observable.Finally(xs, new Action(f))

    member this.TryWith (xs: 'a IObservable, f: exn -> 'a IObservable) =

        Observable.Catch (xs, new Func<exn, 'a IObservable>(f))

    member this.While (f, xs: 'a IObservable) =

        Observable.While (new Func<bool>(f), xs)

    member this.Yield x = Observable.Return x

    member this.YieldFrom xs = xs

    member this.Zero () = Observable.Empty()

let rx = rxBuilder()

// Rx combinators

let repeat (xs:IObservable<_>) = xs.Repeat()

// Sample usages

let xs = rx { yield 42

              yield 43 }

let ys = rx { yield 42

              yield! xs }

let zs = rx { for i = 0 to 10 do yield i }

let redTime = rx { while (DateTime.Now.Second > 30) do

                      yield ConsoleColor.Red }

let blueTime = rx { while (DateTime.Now.Second < 30) do

                      yield ConsoleColor.Green }

letcoloredTime = rx { yield! redTime
                       yield! blueTime } |> repeat
