I have checked thoroughly and found that SolidJS does not have an observable where one can subscribe to store reactive primitives, only signals as far as I know. What is the observable used here if that is the case?
const unsubscribe = store.subscribe(({ todos }) => {
setState('todos', reconcile(todos))
});
onCleanup(() => unsubscribe());
If subscribing to such values is not possible, how do I track the changes inside my store and execute some statements accordingly with the store just as a tracking dependency?
Solid has a subscribe
function exported from the core library so that you can listen to external observables, like the ones created by RxJS, by creating a signal.
An RxJS observable pushes changes to its listeners via an event. The signal you get from the subscribe method will allow you to track the changes.
So subscribe is a method to interface with other reactive libraries.
Now about the subscribe function on the snippet you share, it seems the store value is an external observable that emits todos
. The callback receives this todos values and updates a solid store by setting new todos. The snippet demonstrates how to use the reconcile function.
