Angular Signals Http

If you're working with Angular 16+ and trying to bridge the gap between RxJS observables and the new signals API, this gives you the patterns you need. It covers toSignal for converting HTTP observables into signals with initial values, and toObservable for going the other way when you need to feed signal data into RxJS streams. The examples are minimal but show the actual inject and HttpClient patterns you'll be typing. Honestly, this is reference material for a specific moment: when you're staring at an observable wondering how to wire it into signal-based reactive state without making a mess of it.

Best Practices

Use toSignal for HTTP

import { toSignal } from '@angular/core/rxjs-interop';

@Component({})
export class MyComponent {
  private http = inject(HttpClient);
  
  users = toSignal(this.http.get<User[]>('/api/users'), {
    initialValue: []
  });
}

Use toObservable

import { toObservable, toSignal } from '@angular/core/rxjs-interop';

@Component({})
export class MyComponent {
  name = signal('John');
  name$ = toObservable(this.name);
}
