### Usage
```typescript
import gulp = require('gulp');
import gulpFunction from 'gulp-function'; // default ES6 export
// import {forFirst, forEach, atEnd} from 'gulp-function'
let myAsyncFunction = async (file, enc) => {
// await some async stuff
};
gulp.task('gulpTest', function() {
let stream = gulp
.src('./mydir/*.something')
.pipe(gulpFunction(myAsyncFunction, 'forEach')) //read the notes below
// .pipe(forEach(myAsyncFunction)) // if imported as >> import { forEach } from 'gulp-function' <<
.pipe(gulp.dest('./build/'));
return stream; // by returning the stream gulp knows when our task has finished.
});
```
### Notes
- The first argument of gulpFunction can also be an **array of multiple functionnames**.
Each function can return a promise. The pipe stop will finish when every promise is fullfilled.
When providing an array of functions be careful with modifying the file object -> race condition
- The second argument can be empty, it defaults to "forEach"
- The following options are available:
- "forFirst" - executes when first chunk/vinylfile of the stream reaches the pipestop.
file is pushed further down the line when function's returned promise is fullfilled.
- "forEach" - executes like "forFirst" but with every chunk/vinylfile in the stream;
- "atEnd" - executes after all chunks have passed and are processed in full.
That means the stream's "finish" event fires **before "atLast" is executed**!!!
