rxjs not getting data from behaviour subject on switchmap and refresh

Issue

app.component.ts

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { of } from 'rxjs';
import { TestService } from './test.service';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.css'],
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
  posts = [
    { id: 1, name: 'chethan' },
    { id: 2, name: 'rohan' },
    { id: 3, name: 'sai' },
    { id: 4, name: 'yashas' },
  ];

  constructor(private readonly testService: TestService) {}

  getPosts() {
    return of(this.posts);
  }

  ngOnInit(): void {
    this.testService.myData$.subscribe((data) => {
      console.log('from mydata');
      console.log(data);
    });

    // this.testService.mysecondData$.subscribe((data) => {
    //   console.log('from secondata');
    //   console.log(data);
    // });

    this.testService.refresh();
    this.testService.emitProduct(3);
  }
}

test.service.ts

import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import {
  BehaviorSubject,
  map,
  Subject,
  switchMap,
  switchMapTo,
  tap,
} from 'rxjs';

@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root',
})
export class TestService {
  private refreshSubject = new Subject<void>();
  refresh$ = this.refreshSubject.asObservable();

  private productSubject = new BehaviorSubject<number>(1);
  product$ = this.refreshSubject.asObservable();

  mysecondData$ = this.product$.pipe(
    tap(() => console.log('coming to mysecondata')),
    map(() => 5)
  );

  myData$ = this.refresh$.pipe(
    tap(() => console.log('myData before switchmap got refresh pipe')),
    switchMap(() => this.mysecondData$),
    tap(() => console.log('myData after switchmap bypassed refresh pipe'))
  );

  emitProduct(data: number) {
    this.productSubject.next(data);
  }

  refresh() {
    this.refreshSubject.next();
  }
}

when i check the output i am not able to get the emission of product$

i understand that refresh will fire then it should switch to product$ which emits 5 but i am not seeing that output, which is it not emitting values even thought i have used behaviour subject?

even when i subscribe to this.testService.product$ from ngonit not getting any data, event after calling next() method of productSubject, why is this the case?

Solution

As per the code you just pasted is likely that the cause is because product$ is a derivation of refreshSubject rather than productSubject.

Hence you're emitting new values into the productSubject but that isn't wired to anything
