Asyncronous variables
Install with npm
$ npm install avar
or
$ npm install jb55/avar
var avar = require('avar')
function query(done) {
setTimeout(function() {
done(null, 2);
}, 1000);
}
// query is called is its resulting arguments are cached for future `get`s
var example = avar(query);
example.get(function (err, data) {
// will get called when done, subsequent calls to get retrieve
// cached arguments
});
// future calls to get will also wait for async call or retrieve cached
// results instantly
