A lib that harkens back to the old days when everything was an acronym and you had to shout at the computer to get it to do anything.
RETRO provides a bold new set of async control flow statesments in CAPS.
retro.IF(test).THEN(function).ELSE(function)
retro.NOT(function)
retro.TRUE //function that calls back true
retro.FALSE //function that calls back false
retro
.TRY(function)
.CATCH(function) // called if try errors
.PASS(function) // called if try does not error
.FINALLY(function) // called after CATCH/PASS wether or not TRY errored.
// (unless CATCH or PASS errored)
retro
.TRY(function)
.FINALLY(function) // CATCH/PASS are optional
retro
.WHILE(test) // async test
.DO(function) // perform this function
retro
.DO(function) // the same, but DO first, then check.
.WHILE(test)
retro
.FOR_EACH(array)
.DO(function) // DO this FOR_EACH item in the array
retro.UNTIL(test) // same as while, but do until test fails
.DO(function)
retro
.DO(function)
.UNTIL(test)
retro
.OPEN_PANDORA_BOX() // install monkeypatches onto global context
thinking outloud TRY...CATCH...FINALLY will probably be the most useful. because often one does use an async error value to test something.
sync if returns.
