p-min-delay

p-min-delay

Delay a promise a minimum amount of time

While the delay module delays the promise a specified amount of time and then resolves it, this module ensures the promise resolves after the specified amount of time.

Useful when you have a promise that may settle immediately or may take some time, and you want to ensure it doesn't settle too fast. For example, if you want to show a loading indicator only if the promise takes more than 1 second.

Install

$ npm install --save p-min-delay

Usage

const pMinDelay = require('p-min-delay');

pMinDelay(somePromise, 1000)
	.then(value => {
		// executed after minimum 1 second even if `somePromise` fulfills before that
	})
	.catch(error => {
		// executed right away regardless of delay if `somePromise` rejects
	});
