|
|
|
Allows libraries to handle various caller provided asynchronous functions uniformly. Maps promises, observables, child processes and streams, and callbacks to callback style.
|
|
|
|
As async conventions evolve, it is useful to be able to deal with several different *styles* of async completion uniformly. With this module you can handle completion using a node-style callback, regardless of a return value that's a promise, observable, child process or stream.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Successful completion
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var asyncDone = require('async-done');
|
|
|
|
asyncDone(function(done){
|
|
// do async things
|
|
done(null, 2);
|
|
}, function(error, result){
|
|
// `error` will be null on successful execution of the first function.
|
|
// `result` will be the result from the first function.
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Failed completion
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var asyncDone = require('async-done');
|
|
|
|
asyncDone(function(done){
|
|
// do async things
|
|
done(new Error('Some Error Occurred'));
|
|
}, function(error, result){
|
|
// `error` will be an error from the first function.
|
|
// `result` will be undefined on failed execution of the first function.
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## API
|
|
|
|
### `asyncDone(fn, callback)`
|
|
|
|
Takes a function to execute (`fn`) and a function to call on completion (`callback`).
|
|
|
|
#### `fn([done])`
|
|
|
|
Optionally takes a callback to call when async tasks are complete.
|
|
|
|
#### Completion and Error Resolution
|
|
|
|
* `Callback` (`done`) called
|
|
- Completion: called with null error
|
|
- Error: called with non-null error
|
|
* `Stream` or `EventEmitter` returned
|
|
- Completion: [end-of-stream][end-of-stream] module
|
|
- Error: [domains][domains]
|
|
- __Note:__ Only actual streams are supported, not faux-streams; Therefore, modules like [`event-stream`][event-stream] are not supported.
|
|
* `Child Process` returned
|
|
- Completion [end-of-stream][end-of-stream] module
|
|
- Error: [domains][domains]
|
|
* `Promise` returned
|
|
- Completion: [onFulfilled][promise-onfulfilled] method called
|
|
- Error: [onRejected][promise-onrejected] method called
|
|
* `Observable` (e.g. from [RxJS v5][rxjs5-observable] or [RxJS v4][rxjs5-observable]) returned
|
|
- Completion: [complete][rxjs5-observer-complete] method called
|
|
- Error: [error][rxjs5-observer-error] method called
|
|
|
|
__Warning:__ Sync tasks are __not supported__ and your function will never complete if the one of the above strategies is not used to signal completion. However, thrown errors will be caught by the domain.
|
|
|
|
#### `callback(error, result)`
|
|
|
|
If an error doesn't occur in the execution of the `fn` function, the `callback` method will receive the results as its second argument. Note: Some streams don't received any results.
|
|
|
|
If an error occurred in the execution of the `fn` function, The `callback` method will receive an error as its first argument.
|
|
|
|
Errors can be caused by:
|
|
|
|
* A thrown error
|
|
* An error passed to a `done` callback
|
|
* An `error` event emitted on a returned `Stream`, `EventEmitter` or `Child Process`
|
|
* A rejection of a returned `Promise` - If the `Promise` is not rejected with a value, we generate a new `Error`
|
|
* The `onError` handler being called on an `Observable`
