Utilities

Deferred

• Represents a deferred operation.
• Provides methods resolve and reject to control the wrapped promise.
• Exposes properties promise and status to get the underlying promise and its current status.

Queue

• A queue system for handling asynchronous tasks.
• Offers methods push, pull, and done to manage tasks.

Generatorify

• Convert a task into an asynchronous iterable.
• The iterable can be used in for await...of loops to process values as they're produced.

Combine

• Combine multiple asynchronous iterables into a single iterable.
• The resulting iterable will yield values from all input iterables and complete when all of them are done.

Usage

Create deferred operation

import { defer, Status } from 'asygen';

const deferred = defer<number>();
console.log(deferred.status); // Status.PENDING

deferred.resolve(42);
deferred.promise.then((value) => {
  console.log(value); // 42
  console.log(deferred.status); // Status.RESOLVED
});

Create a deferred operation from events

import { defer } from 'asygen';

const result = defer();

console.log(result.status); // pending

task.once('data', error.resolve);
task.once('error', error.reject);
await result.promise;

console.log(result.status); // resolved or rejected

Task queue

import { createQueue } from 'asygen';

const queue = createQueue<number>();

queue.push(1);
queue.push(2);
queue.push(3);

queue.pull().promise.then((value) => console.log(value)); // 1
queue.pull().promise.then((value) => console.log(value)); // 2

Generatorify

import { generatorify } from 'asygen';

const task = async (callback) => {
  await callback('Hello');
  await callback('World');
  return 'Done!';
};

const iterable = generatorify(task);

(async () => {
  for await (const value of iterable) {
    console.log(value); // "Hello", then "World"
  }
})();

Convert events to asyncGenerator

import { once } from 'node:events';
import { generatorify, Task } from 'asygen';

// send data from the event until process exit
const task: Task = async (send) => {
  process.on('data', send);
  await once(process, 'exit');
};

for await (const data of generatorify(task)) {
  // handle data
}

Combine tasks

import { generatorify, combine } from 'asygen';

const task1 = async (callback) => {
  await callback('Task1 - Hello');
  await callback('Task1 - World');
};

const task2 = async (callback) => {
  await callback('Task2 - Foo');
  await callback('Task2 - Bar');
};

const iterable1 = generatorify(task1);
const iterable2 = generatorify(task2);

const combined = combine(iterable1, iterable2);

(async () => {
  for await (const value of combined) {
    console.log(value); // Logs values from both task1 and task2
  }
})();

Combine generators

import { combine } from 'asygen';

const sleep = (timeout: number) =>
  new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, timeout));

async function* generate(timeout: number, count: number) {
  for (let index = 0; index < count; index++) {
    yield index;
    await sleep(timeout);
  }
}

for await (const data of combine(generate(100, 5), generate(500, 2))) {
  // handle data
}
// First:    0 1 2 3 4 -
// Second:   0 . . . . 1
// Combined: 0 0 1 2 3 4 1
