Hi friends! is this a good place for any (beginner level) RxJava questions, or is it more meant for RxKotlin specific things? Anyway, I have a question. I have a

Flowable

and I would like to consume all events from it, but add a little delay between each events. How would I best do that?

that is the same as saying:

theFlowable.delay(1, TimeUnit.SECONDS)

Hm, no? I tried this:

Flowable.just("One", "two", "three")
    .delay(1, TimeUnit.SECONDS)
    .subscribe(System.out::println);

I’m getting a one second delay, then all three printing at the same time. This, however:

Flowable.just("One", "two", "three")
    .concatMap(f -> Flowable.just(f).delay(1, TimeUnit.SECONDS))
    .subscribe(System.out::println);

..gives me one second pause, “One”, one second pause, “two”, one second pause, “three” – which is what I want.

yeah I don't think @kioba is correct - there may be some overload of

delay

that works the way you'd expect it to but in general I think you've got the right approach. You could also

zip

your flowable with

Flowable.interval

to effectively pair up each item in your stream with the item emitted by

interval

. Six to half a dozen though really

Allright! Thanks 🙏

sorry, you were right, I was thinking about creating a gap for each element from the initial trigger.

concatMap with a delay

is a nice solution!
