Fast Defer
Fast Defer is a fast and minimal deferred implementation for javascript.
npm install fast-defer # or yarn add fast-defer
const { deferred } = require('fast-defer');
import { deferred } from 'fast-defer';
<script

src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/fast-defer@latest/dist/index.umd.js"
></script>
const { deferred } = window.fastDefer;
import { deferred } from 'https://cdn.skypack.dev/fast-defer@latest';
A deferred is nothing more than a promise with .resolve() and a .reject() method. You
can use it to create a promise that will be resolved or rejected at some point in the
future and, probably, in another scope.
import { deferred, isDeferred } from 'fast-defer';
const waitingSomething = deferred();
waitingSomething.then((val) => {
console.log('Resolved');
});
waitingSomething.catch((error) => {
console.log('Rejected');
});
// Other file, function or etc
someCallback((response, error) => {
if (error) {
waitingSomething.reject(error);
} else {
waitingSomething.resolve(response);
}
});
