Synchronouz
Execute it all at the once!
Synchronouz lets you execute several functions (as much as you want, actually!) at the same time, and emits a done
event when everything finished.
Installation
To install, just type npm install synchronouz
in a terminal.
To then use it, just do var sync = require("synchronouz");
in your application.
Usage
Sync (function|function[] functions...) : constructor
functions: function or Array.<function>; Rest. Any amount of functions or Arrays of functions to add.
Sync (or whatever you've called it) is a constructor, to which you can pass the same arguments as to Sync#add
. You can also call it as normal function.
var {...};var { ;};; ;
Note: All functions should execute their callback (
cb
), otherwise the final callback will never be executed!
Sync#arguments (any[] arguments) - .
Alias: Sync#args
, Sync#options
arguments: Array.<any>. The an array of arguments to apply to the functions.
return: Sync. For chaining.
The arguments will be .apply()
ed to each function, with the callback as last argument. These are default arguments, so if you pass in arguments for Sync.add
, these will not be used (for that particular function).
In the example, we pass in an array with one item in it, the string "Hello, world!"
. So the first argument to each function will be that string:
var { console; ;}var { console; ;} options"Hello, world!"; ; ; ; //Will log:// Hello, world!// hi
Sync#args
Alias for Sync#arguments
.
Sync#options
Alias for Sync#arguments
.
Sync#add (function|function[] function, [any[] arguments]) - .
function: function or Array.<function>. A function, or array of functions, to add.
arguments: Array.<any>; Optional. An optional array of arguments to apply to the function(s).
return: Sync. For chaining.
With Sync.add()
, a function is added to the stack, but instead of using the arguments passed in with Sync#arguments
, it will use the arguments passed to this method. For example:
var { console; ;}var { console; ;} options"A message to One (and all other functions passed to Sync())!"; ; ;
Sync#execute ([function callback]) - .
callback: function; Optional. An optional callback for the Sync#"done"
event.
return: Sync. For chaining.
Executes all the functions at once. You can optionally pass in a callback to be bound to the Sync#"done"
event.
var { console; ;}var { ;} options"Hello, world!" ; //Will log:// Hello, world!// Done!
Sync#"done" (arguments[]|Error results)
results: the results of the functions.
When all the functions have run (i.e. all of them have executed their callback), the done
event is emitted, with one argument: an array of Argument objects that were passed to the callbacks (in the order that the functions were added). One exception to this rule, is when one of the functions returned an Error: then, the done
event is called immediately, with the Error it returned. The other results are ignored.
