RxJS Observable from Object.observe

example.js

let obj = {
    value: 1
};

Rx.Observable.fromObserving(obj).filter((change) => change.name === 'value').doOnNext((x) => console.log(x)).subscribe();

obj.value = 2;

observing.js

Rx.Observable.fromObserving = (obj) => {
    return Rx.Observable.create((observer) => {
        var handler = (changes) => {
            changes.forEach((x) => observer.onNext(x));
            observer.onCompleted();
        };

        Object.observe(obj, handler);

        return () => Object.unobserve(obj, handler);
    });
}

hey @tlivings thanks for the snippet! do you know if there is an easier way (a shortcut?) to observe a property on an object? It feels like such a simple task but I can't find how to do it with RxJS (other RxSwift and others do have it though)
