promise.extra

Promise.series and Promise.waterfall with vanilla es Promise/thenable

Install

$ npm i promise.extra

Usage

import {
  series,
  waterfall,
  reduce,
  factory
} from 'promise.extra'

series([1, 2, 3], (prev, v) => Promise.resolve(v))
.then(values => {
  console.log(values)  // [1, 2, 3]
})

waterfall([1, 2, 3], 0, (prev, v) => Promise.resolve(prev + v))
.then(result => {
  console.log(result)  // 6
})

// The reducer could even returns non-promise values
waterfall(
  [1, 2, 3],
  0,
  (prev, v, i) => i > 0
    ? prev + v
    : Promise.resolve(prev + v)
)
.then(result => {
  console.log(result)  // 6
})

reduce([v1, v2, v3], reducer, initValue)

series(tasks, reducer?): Promise

  • tasks Array<Task> an array of tasks
    • Task any each of the tasks could be anything.
  • reducer ?ReducerFunction the reducer which will process each task and returns either a Promise or any value.

Always returns a Promise.

function ReducerFunction (
  prev: any,
  task: Task,
  index: number,
  tasks
): Promise | any
  • prev The result value of the last task which processed by the reducer. If the return value of the last reducer is an Promise, prev will be the value inside the promise.
  • task The current task.
  • index The index of task
  • tasks Just the tasks argument of function series

The default value of reducer is:

(prev, currentValue) => currentValue

currentValue is one of the Tasks, and each Task could be a Promise or a normal JavaScript variable or object.

If you want each of the Tasks to be a factory function that returns a Promise or normal values, and execute each value inside the reducer, just define the reducer as:

function reducer (prev, factory) {
  // If `series` is invoked by `series.call(this, ...args)`,
  // reducer could share the `this` object.
  return factory.call(this, prev)
}

waterfall(tasks, initValue, reducer?)

  • tasks Array<PromiseFactory>
    • PromiseFactory Function(x): Promise a factory function which receives a parameter and returns a Promise
  • initValue any | undefined optional initial value which will be passed into the first factory function.
  • reducer

Always returns Promise.

reduce(tasks, reducer, initValue)

  • tasks
  • reducer Function(prev, factory, currentIndex, tasks): Promise The reducer function
  • initValue any | undefined if no initial value is supplied, undefined will be used.

Always returns Promise

findIndex(tasks, matcher, reducer?)

find(tasks, matcher, reducer?)

indexOf(tasks, value, reducer?)

some(tasks, reducer?)

every(tasks, reducer?)

Each of the methods is similar to the behavior of Array.prototype.<method>.

factory(promise)

  • promise Promise|PromiseLike

Creates the new reduce, series, waterfall with the Promise which can be bluebird, promise-faker or something.

import Promise from 'promise-faker'
const {
  series
} = factory(Promise)

series(tasks)

Examples

Usage of reducer

const nickName = 'Steve'

// Suppose there are two async functions to check the nickName
series(
  [checkNickNameSyntax, remoteCheckUnique],
  (prev, factory) => factory(nickName)
)

The this Object

function lessThan10 (notThrow) {
  if (this.number < 10) {
    this.number ++
    return true
  }

  if (notThrow) {
    return false
  }

  return Promise.reject('larger than 10')
}

series.call({number: 10}, [lessThan10, lessThan10])
// Reject

series.call({number: 1}, [lessThan10, lessThan10])
// Promise.resolve<true>

series.call({number: 10},
  [lessThan10, lessThan10],
  function (prev, factory) {
    // 1. Be careful that you should use `factory.call` here
    //   to pass the `this` object to `factory`
    // 2. use the parameter `notThrow`
    return factory.call(this, true)
  }
)
// Promise.resolve<false>
