While the core xstream library is comprised of a few well chosen operators, additional operators are included as extras and can accessed by their path.

import xs from 'xstream';
import dropRepeats from 'xstream/extra/dropRepeats'

const stream = xs.of(1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 3, 5)
  .compose(dropRepeats())

stream.addListener({
   next: i => console.log(i),
   error: err => console.error(err),
   complete: () => console.log('completed')
});

The .compose operator is used to drop the extra methods into the stream.
