prolock v1.3.0

Promise Lock for Node.js

Simple execution lock based on Promises

Install & Usage

npm install prolock

Usage: prolock

The following code allows to lock a execution:

import { PromiseLock } from "prolock";

var prolock = PromiseLock();

// in function
var result = await prolock(async ()=>{
	// execution to lock
	return "result";
});

and/or:

// in function
var unlock = await prolock();
// execution to lock
// ...
unlock();

To create multiple locks just create an other instance of PromiseLock.

Usage: prolock with Timeout:

Use the following code to lock a execution but with Timeout if we do not get a lock.

import { PromiseLock } from "prolock";

var prolock = PromiseLock({ // global options:
	"timeout_lock": 3000,
	"release_lock": 4000
});

// in function
var result = await prolock(async ()=>{
	// execution to lock
	return "result";
}, {
	"timeout_lock": 1000,
	"release_lock": 2000
});

and/or:

// in function
var unlock = await prolock({
	"timeout_lock": 1000,
