anothersequencer

Quick and dirty script sequencer. Create function trees, add async/requestAnimationFrame or delays, and subscribe to tagged outputs in the trees.

Usage:

let sequencer = new Sequencer();

let sequence1 = [{
    tag:'begin'
    operation:(input)=>{}, //the callback
    next:[{
        operation:(input)=>{}, //next callback
        delay:100
        next:[
            {
                tag:'anotheroperation' //tags let you subscribe to these results
                operation:async (input)=>{}, //etc.
                delay:100,
                async:true //can toggle if the operations should run async, or use frame:true to use requestAnimationFrame
            }, 
            {
                operation:async (input)=>{},
                frame:true, //uses requestAnimationFrame which is a special async function for frame and context-limited calls
                //next:[{...}]
            }
        ]
    }]
}];

let sequence2 = [
    first(){console.log('1');},
    second(){console.log('2');},
    async () => {console.log('3')} //yeah whatever
];

let onResult = (input) => {
    console.log(input);
}

sequencer.addSequence('test1',sequence1);

sequencer.addSequence('test2',sequence2);

let sub = sequencer.subscribeToOperation('anotheroperation',onResult); //adds a triggered function on result

//sequencer.unsubscribeFromOperation('anotheroperation',sub); //leave sub blank to remove all triggers. You could even, say, subscribe one sequence to another tagged sequence even, I don't know why but sure it's cool.

Other functions less obvious to use:

sequencer.getSequence(
    name,
    layer //optional
);

sequencer.appendSequence(
     name, //name of sequence
    layer, //layer 2 is the second layer, etc. leave blank to append on first layer
    setting={ //object or function, functions cannot have more layers added
    //operation = (result) => {} //callback for the sequence, takes the previous result
    //delay:undefined, //set to a millisecond value
    //async:undefined //set async:true or frame:true depending on if you want normal async or frame-timed async (which also won't run if you are out of the tab)
    }, 
    index //if you are appending to .next of an operation in a particular sequence layer you can use  this. Leave blank to just add the setting to the specified layer instead
)

sequencer.removeSequence(
    name,
    layer, //optional
    index //optional
);

//this is used recursively by runSequence otherwise to iterate a layer
sequencer.runSequenceLayer(
    layer=[],
    previousResult
)
