Observable-Swift is a Swift library providing explicit value observing via Observable<T> and subscribable events via Event<T>, inspired by Objective-C's KVO. It supports chained observables, before/after change handlers, multiple handlers, and observer lifetime management using closures and generics.

Use cases

  • observe value changes on Swift variables with closures
  • implement KVO-like observing in Swift without Objective-C keys
  • subscribe to custom events with Event<T>
  • chain observables for key-path-style observation
  • add multiple change handlers and tie them to observer lifetime

When to avoid

  • you need Combine, RxSwift, or full reactive streams with operators
  • your project requires actively maintained libraries with recent Swift version support
  • you rely on implicit KVO of arbitrary object properties
