@coolgk/queue v2.0.5

@coolgk/queue

a javascript / typescript module

npm install @coolgk/queue

This is a super lightweight function that limits the number of async functions run concurrently and run them in order.

Report bugs here: https://github.com/coolgk/node-utils/issues 1. Put async functions in a queue and limit the number of async functions that run concurrently. 2. Run async functions in order 3. Run x number of functions in parallel per batch in order. similar to async / await when the second parameter is 1.

Examples

import { queue } from '@coolgk/queue';
// OR
// const { queue } = require('@coolgk/queue');

function a (x) {
    console.log('start a');
    return new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(() => { console.log('end a', x); resolve('a') }, 1300));
}

function b (x) {
    console.log('start b');
    return new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(() => { console.log('end b', x); resolve('b') }, 1200));
}

function c (x) {
    console.log('start c');
    return new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(() => { console.log('end c', x); resolve('c') }, 100));
}

// call a, b, c in order i.e. b does not start until a resolves
queue(a);
queue(b);
queue(c);

// call a 5 times, each waits until the previous call resolves
[1,2,3,4,5].forEach(() => {
    queue(a)
});

// run 3 jobs at a time
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10].forEach(() => {
    queue(a, 3)
});

queue(callback, limit) ⇒ promise

Kind: global function
