microDebounce

Added in v1.1.0

The microDebounce operator emits only the last value from a burst of synchronous events,
scheduled to run at the end of the current microtask.

✅ Basic usage​

import { event } from "signux";
import { microDebounce } from "signux/operators";

const input = event<string>();
const stableInput = input.pipe(microDebounce());

stableInput.subscribe((value) => console.log("Stable:", value));

input("h");
input("he");
input("hel");
input("hell");
input("hello");

// Logs: "Stable: hello" — only once, at the end of the microtask

⚙️ How it works​

It captures the latest value received in a single microtask,
and emits only that value when the microtask queue clears.

🧩 Use cases​

  • Collapse multiple updates into a single emission
  • Avoid duplicate reactions within the same event loop
  • Clean up noisy synchronous flows

📦 Signature​

function microDebounce<T>(): OperatorFn<T>;

🧪 Example with state​

const input = state("");
const stable = input.pipe(microDebounce());
info

Note: This does not delay emissions noticeably — it's designed to debounce within the current microtask only. Unlike microThrottle, this emits only the latest value and ignores the rest.
