gw2e-async-promises v1.2.0

async-promises

Wrapping promises with the async library. This enables you to pass promise-generating functions to the parallel and series methods and returns a promise instead of having to specify a callback

This is part of gw2efficiency. Please report all issues in the central repository.

Install

npm install gw2e-async-promises

This module can be used for Node.js as well as browsers using Browserify.

Usage

const async = require('gw2e-async-promises')

// Note: promisesArray expects to be built out of *functions*
// that return promises, because else the promises start 
// instantly and can't be run in series anymore.
let promiseArray = [
  () => new Promise(resolve => resolve('Test.')),
  // ...
]

// Await
let results = await async.parallel(promiseArray)
let results = await async.parallel(promiseArray, limitOfParallelTasks)
let results = await async.parallel(promiseArray, limitOfParallelTasks, boolSilenceErrors)
let results = await async.series(promiseArray)
let results = await async.series(promiseArray, boolSilenceErrors)

// Promises
async.parallel(promiseArray).then(results => console.log(results))
async.parallel(promiseArray, limitOfParallelTasks).then(results => console.log(results))
async.parallel(promiseArray, limitOfParallelTasks, boolSilenceErrors).then(results => console.log(results))
async.series(promiseArray).then(results => console.log(results))
async.series(promiseArray, boolSilenceErrors).then(results => console.log(results))
