smartq

dropin replacement for q

Availabililty

Status for master

Usage

Use TypeScript for best in class instellisense.

Note: smartq uses native ES6 promises smartq does not repeat any native functions, so for things like .all() simply use Promise.all()

import * as q from 'smartq'

// Deferred
// -----------------------------------------------
let myAsyncFunction = (): Promise<string> => {
    let done = q.defer<string>() // returns your typical Deferred object
    setTimeout(() => {
        done.resolve('hi') // will throw type error for other types than string as argument ;)
    },6000)
    return done.promise
}

let myAsyncFunction2 = async () => {
    let aString = await myAsyncFunction()
    console.log(aString) // will log 'hi' to console
}

myAsyncFunction2();


// Resolved and Rejected promises
// ------------------------------------------------
q.resolvedPromise(`I'll get logged to console soon`)
    .then(x => {
        console.log(x)
    })

q.rejectedPromise(`what a lovely error message`)
    .then(() => {
        console.log('This never makes it to console')
    }/*, alternatively put a reject function here */)
    .catch(err => {
        console.log(err)
    })

// Promisify (typed)
// ------------------------------------------------

let myCallbackedFunction = (someString: string, someNumber: number, cb) => {
    cb(null, someString)
}

let myPromisedFunction = q.promisify(myCallbackFunction)
myPromisedFunction('helloThere', 2).then(x => {
    console.log(x) // will log 'helloThere' to console
})
