simple control flow helpers
npm install ee-async
var async = require( "ee-async" );
execute a function on every item passed to the function using an array
async.each( [ items ], worker, [ worker ], [ .. ], callback );
the array of items can also be an array of array if the workers need more than one argument applied to them
async.each( [ "1.txt", "2.txt" ]
, fs.readFile
, function( data, next ){
next( null, data.toString() );
}
, function( err, results ){
log( results ); // [ "contents of 1.txt", "contents of 2.txt" ]
}
);
execute functions in parallel
async.wait( function( complete ){
complete( 1 );
}, function( complete ){
complete( 2 );
}, function( err, results ){
log( results ); // [ 1, 2 ]
}
);
pass input through a chain of functions
async.chain("./test/1.txt"
, fs.readFile
, function( data, next ){
next( null, data.toString() );
}
, function( err, data ){
log( data ); // "contents of 1.txt"
}
);
wait for several callbacks
var waiter = async.waiter(function(err) {
// both load events were fired
});
someAsyncApi.on('load', waiter());
anotherApi.on('load', waiter());
