RxShortcuts

Shortcuts for RxSwift/RxCocoa.

Warning! Since RxSwift 3.0.0 (and Swift 3.0), shortcuts like subscribeNext, doOnNext etc. have been removed from the core library. There was a reason for that and let me quote @kzaher about the shortcuts (old extensions):

The downsides of old extensions were inconsistencies with Swift API guidelines. They also weren’t expressing that calling them actually performes additional subscriptions and thus potentially additional work beside just registering observers.

However I really like these shortcuts and I’m using them in my projects anyways, so I though that I would share.

Shortcuts
