co-each

co-each

Parallel forEach for generators.

Example

Backup some files:

var each = require('co-each');
var fs = require('fs');
var co = require('co');

co(function* () {
  var files = [
    'index.js', 'README.md'
  ];

  yield each(files, backup);
});

// simple backup function
function backup(path) {
  return function(done) {
    fs.createReadStream(path)
    .pipe(fs.createWriteStream(path + '.bck'))
    .on('error', done)
    .on('close', done);
  };
}

API

each(arr, fn)

For each element in the Array arr, call the generator fn with

• the element
• the current index
• the whole array

as in Array#forEach and yield when all are done. Functions are being executed in parallel.

Installation

With npm do:

npm install co-each
