What is @hapi/teamwork?
@hapi/teamwork is a utility for managing asynchronous tasks and their completion. It provides a simple way to create and manage promises, making it easier to handle multiple asynchronous operations and their results.
What are @hapi/teamwork's main functionalities?
Creating a Teamwork instance
This feature allows you to create a new instance of Teamwork, which can be used to manage a group of asynchronous tasks.
const Teamwork = require('@hapi/teamwork');
const team = new Teamwork();
Registering tasks
This feature allows you to register asynchronous tasks with the Teamwork instance. The `attend` method is used to add a task to the team.
const Teamwork = require('@hapi/teamwork');
const team = new Teamwork();
async function asyncTask() {
// Simulate an async task
return new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, 1000));
}
team.attend(asyncTask());
Waiting for all tasks to complete
This feature allows you to wait for all registered tasks to complete. The `work` property returns a promise that resolves when all tasks have finished.
const Teamwork = require('@hapi/teamwork');
const team = new Teamwork();
async function asyncTask() {
// Simulate an async task
return new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, 1000));
}
team.attend(asyncTask());
team.attend(asyncTask());
team.work.then(() => {
console.log('All tasks completed');
});
Other packages similar to @hapi/teamwork
async
The 'async' package provides utilities for working with asynchronous JavaScript, including functions for parallel and series execution of tasks. It offers more comprehensive functionality compared to @hapi/teamwork, but can be more complex to use.
bluebird
Bluebird is a fully-featured promise library that provides a wide range of utilities for managing asynchronous code. It offers more advanced features and better performance compared to native promises, but is more heavyweight than @hapi/teamwork.
p-limit
The 'p-limit' package allows you to run multiple promise-returning & async functions with a concurrency limit. It is more focused on controlling the concurrency of tasks rather than managing their completion as a group, which is the primary focus of @hapi/teamwork.
