Filter Operator API response not working in RxSwift

Question

I am not able to find out the what is the issue , just to filter out response based on status code as follow:

The code should be filter out the response based on the status code and return response and data as observable.

Answer 1

There are few issues with your approach:

• Why are you using Observable.create when you have URLSession.shared.rx.response that is already returning Observable?
• Your last flatMap should return an Observable but you are not returning anything from there
• There's URLSession.shared.rx.data that does the statusCode check for you
• You can use .decode operator for decoding
• Why it's a generic func that returns T but is named getUsers?
• You are never subscribing to the inner Observable inside Observable.create so your reactive chain will never run

Given these issue you can adapt your code to:

func getUsers<T: Codable>(urlStr: String) -> Observable<T> {
  guard let url = URL(string: urlStr) else { return .empty() } 
  return URLSession.shared.rx.data(request: .init(url: url))
    .decode(type: T.self, decoder: JSONDecoder())
}
