RxFriendUtils

Utilities for observing the local player's friends.

Functions​

observeFriendsInServerAsBrios​

RxFriendUtils.observeFriendsInServerAsBrios(player: Player?) → Observable<Brio<Player>>

Observe friends in the current server (not including the LocalPlayer!), useful for social GUIs. The lifetimes exist for the whole duration another player is a friend and in your server. This means if a player is unfriended + friended multiple times per session, they will have emitted multiple friend lifetimes.

Works against PlayerMock players on either side: mocks in the DataModel are enumerated alongside real players, and friendship resolves through the mock's "Player.IsFriendsWithAsync" domain. A mock local player answers StarterGui:GetCore with its own stand-in for the CoreGui events below, so a test fires a friending the way the CoreGui does: 

PlayerMock.callMethod(player, "StarterGui.GetCore", "PlayerFriendedEvent"):Fire(otherPlayer)
