Package Exports

async-wait-until

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (async-wait-until) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

waitUntil

Waits for predicate to be truthy and resolves a Promise

Installation

$ npm install async-wait-until

Usage

const waitUntil = require('async-wait-until');
const timeOfStart = Date.now();


// Wait for some async operation to end
waitUntil(() => {
  const timePassed = Date.now() - timeOfStart;

  return (timePassed < 500)
      && (timePassed % 2 === 0)  // Some random stuff
          ? true
          : throw new Error('Async operation failed');
}, 600)
.then((result) => {
  // Here are the operations to be done after predicate
  console.log('Async operation succeeded, predicate result = ', result);
})
.catch((error) => {
  // Here are the operations to be done if predicate didn't succeed in the timeout
  console.log('Async operation failed: ', error);
});

async/await

The library is async/await compatible because it uses Promises/A+, so the example above could be rewritten:

const waitUntil = require('async-wait-until');
const timeOfStart = Date.now();


// Wait for some async operation to end
try {
  const result = await waitUntil(() => {
    const timePassed = Date.now() - timeOfStart;

    return (timePassed < 500)
        && (timePassed % 2 === 0)  // Some random stuff
            ? true
            : throw new Error('Async operation failed');
  }, 600)

  // Here are the operations to be done after predicate
  console.log('Async operation succeeded, predicate result = ', result);
} catch (error) {
  // Here are the operations to be done if predicate didn't succeed in the timeout
  console.log('Async operation failed: ', error);
}

Supported arguments

 PASS  test/waitUntil.js
  waitUntil
    ✓ Should apply callback and resolve result (219ms)
    ✓ Should reject with timeout error if timed out (106ms)
    ✓ Should not do double reject on timeout (206ms)
    ✓ Should not do double reject on timeout if error in predicate (204ms)
    ✓ Should reject result if error in predicate (52ms)
