Utilities for disposables

Install

Installation of the npm package:

npm install --save @vates/disposable

Usage

This library contains utilities for disposables as defined by the promise-toolbox library.

deduped(fn, keyFn)

Creates a new function that wraps fn and instead of creating a new disposables at each call, returns copies of the same one when keyFn returns the same keys.

Those copies contains the same value and can be disposed independently, the source disposable will only be disposed when all copies are disposed.

keyFn is called with the same context and arguments as the wrapping function and must returns an array of keys which will be used to identify which disposables should be grouped together.

import { deduped } from '@vates/disposable/deduped'

// the connection with the passed host will be established once at the first call, then, it will be shared with the next calls
const getConnection = deduped(async function (host)) {
  const connection = new Connection(host)
  return new Disposabe(connection, () => connection.close())
}, host => [host])

debounceResource(disposable, delay)

Creates a new disposable with the same value and with a delayed disposer.

On calling this disposer, the source disposable will be disposed when the delay is passed.

import { createDebounceResource } from '@vates/disposable/debounceResource'

const debounceResource = createDebounceResource()

// it will wait for 10 seconds before calling the disposer
Disposable.use(debounceResource(getConnection(host), 10e3), connection => {})

debounceResource.flushAll()

Disposes all delayed disposers and cancels the delaying of the disposables that are in usage.

import { createDebounceResource } from '@vates/disposable/debounceResource'

const debounceResource = createDebounceResource()

const res1 = await debounceResource(res, 10e3)
const res2 = await debounceResource(res, 10e3)
const res3 = await debounceResource(res, 10e3)

rest1.dispose()
rest2.dispose()
// res3 is in usage

debounceResource.flushAll()
// res1 and res2 are immediately disposed
// res3 will be disposed immediately when its disposer will be called
