Sequencing Tasks

This feature allows you to sequence tasks based on their dependencies. The code sample demonstrates how to define tasks with dependencies and use sequencify to determine the correct order of execution.

const sequencify = require('sequencify');

const tasks = {
  a: {},
  b: { dep: ['a'] },
  c: { dep: ['b'] },
  d: { dep: ['a', 'c'] }
};

const names = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'];
const results = [];
const errors = [];

sequencify(tasks, names, results, errors);

console.log('Results:', results); // ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']
console.log('Errors:', errors); // []

var items = {
  a: {

    // other properties as needed
  },
  b: {
    name: 'b',
    dep: ['a']
  },
  c: {
    name: 'c',
    dep: ['a']
  },
  d: {
    name: 'd',
    dep: ['c']
  },
};

var names = ['d', 'b', 'c', 'a']; // The names of the items you want arranged, need not be all

sequencify(items, names, results);

console.log(results);
// ['a','b','c','d'];
