Cloudflare Adds Security.txt Setup Wizard
Cloudflare has launched a setup wizard allowing users to easily create and manage a security.txt file for vulnerability disclosure on their websites.
@types/q provides TypeScript type definitions for the Q library, which is a tool for working with promises in JavaScript. It allows developers to write asynchronous code in a more manageable and readable way.
Creating Promises
This feature allows you to create a new promise using Q.defer(). The deferred object has a promise property that can be used to attach handlers for the resolved and rejected states.
const Q = require('q');
const deferred = Q.defer();
deferred.promise.then((value) => {
console.log('Resolved with:', value);
}).catch((error) => {
console.error('Rejected with:', error);
});
deferred.resolve('Success');
Chaining Promises
This feature demonstrates how to chain multiple promises together using Q.fcall() and .then(). Each step in the chain can return a value or a new promise, allowing for sequential asynchronous operations.
const Q = require('q');
Q.fcall(() => {
return 'First step';
}).then((result) => {
console.log(result);
return 'Second step';
}).then((result) => {
console.log(result);
return 'Third step';
}).then((result) => {
console.log(result);
}).catch((error) => {
console.error('Error:', error);
});
Handling Multiple Promises
This feature shows how to handle multiple promises concurrently using Q.all(). It waits for all promises in the array to resolve and then returns an array of results. If any promise is rejected, it will catch the error.
const Q = require('q');
const promise1 = Q.delay(1000).then(() => 'First');
const promise2 = Q.delay(2000).then(() => 'Second');
Q.all([promise1, promise2]).then((results) => {
console.log('All promises resolved:', results);
}).catch((error) => {
console.error('One or more promises rejected:', error);
});
Bluebird is a fully-featured promise library for JavaScript. It offers a wide range of features including promise creation, chaining, and concurrency control. Compared to Q, Bluebird is known for its performance and additional utility methods.
ES6-Promise is a polyfill for the ES6 Promises specification. It provides a lightweight implementation of promises that is compliant with the ES6 standard. While it lacks some of the advanced features of Q, it is a good choice for environments that need ES6 compatibility.
When is a solid promise library that focuses on performance and small size. It provides similar functionality to Q, including promise creation and chaining, but is designed to be more lightweight and faster.
