What is the most suitable way to convert a Multi to Uni on completion? So far, I have the following working solutions:
multi.collect().asList().replaceWithVoid()
It just feels a bit odd to collect the items and to replace the list when I'm only interested in receiving an item upon completion. Am I missing a better solution?
You can simply skip all Multi emitted items then switch over to a Uni:
multi.skip()
.where(ignored -> true)
.toUni()
//.replaceWithVoid()
Optionally using the Uni#replaceWithVoid as you suggested to switch the Uni formal type.
The difference would be to avoid storing elements temporarily in memory using the Multi#collect operator. Now you are simply ignoring the items and switching downstream on completion.
