How to return observable from subscribe

by

You can’t return an observable from subscribe but if you use map instead of subscribe then an Observable is returned.

canActivate(route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot, state: RouterStateSnapshot):Observable<boolean> {
    // get route to be activated
    this.routeToActivate = route.routeConfig.path;

    // get user access levels        
    return this._firebase.isUserAdminObservable
        .map(user => {
           // do something here
           // user.access_level;
           return true;
         })
        .first(); // for the observable to complete on the first event (usually required for `canActivate`)
        // first needs to be imported like `map`, ...
}

canActivate(route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot, state: RouterStateSnapshot):Observable<boolean> {
    // get route to be activated
    this.routeToActivate = route.routeConfig.path;

    let subject = new Subject();
    // get user access levels        
    this._firebase.isUserAdminObservable
        .map(user => {
          let accessLevel = user.access_level; 
          if (accessLevel === 'admin' ) { 
            subject.emit(true); 
            subject.complete();
          } 
          return user;
        });
     return subject;
}
