resolvable-promise

resolvable-promise

I've found that for the majority of projects I keep needing to rewrite or copy-paste the same small piece of code, a function that creates a promise with the resolve and reject functions exposed. This project is that small snippet of code, created mostly for my own convenience.

Oh, and I also added types.

Installation

npm install resolvable-promise

Basic Usage

The basic usage is as follows:

const resolvable = makeResolvable();

resolvable
  .then(it => console.log(it));

console.log("Resolving...");
resolvable.resolve("Resolved!");

Where the console output will be:

Resolving...
Resolved!

Arguments

You can optionally provide makeResolvable with an executor callback just like a promise:

const resolvable = makeResolvable((resolve, reject) => {
  // Do something async...
  resolve("Resolved!");
});

It's also possible to provide it with a promise that you might have gotten from somewhere else:

const res = fetch("https://swapi.dev/api/people/");
const resolvable = makeResolvable(res);
