fromEvent
let { fromEvent, throttleTime, map, scan } = rxjs; fromEvent(document, 'click') .pipe( throttleTime(1000), map((event) => event.clientX), scan((count, clientX) => count + clientX, 0) ) .subscribe((count) => console.log(count));
addEventListener
let count = 0; const rate = 1000; let lastClick = Date.now() - rate; document.addEventListener('click', (event) => { if (Date.now() - lastClick >= rate) { count += event.clientX; console.log(count); lastClick = Date.now(); } });
