@gourmet/promise-repeat v0.3.3

@gourmet/promise-repeat

Runs an asynchronous loop in series - the handler will not be called until the promise returned by the previous call is resolved.

Basic usage

const promiseRepeat = require("@gourmet/promise-repeat");

const promise = promiseRepeat(() => {
  // ... handler that can return a promise
});

This function is much more efficient than simply chaining promises when the chain becomes very long.

The handler is invoked with no argument and can return one of the following:

• promise: wait for an async job - a resolved value of undefined continues the loop and a value other than undefined exits the loop.
• undefined: continue the loop.
• other: exit the loop.

Returns a promise that is resolved with the handler's return value that triggered the exit of loop.
