Package Exports

run-callback

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 (run-callback) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

run-callback

Run async or sync callbacks, such as gulp tasks.

The main ideas are borrowed from orchestrator.

Usage

run(callback, done)

Run callback, and call done when it finishes

callback

Type: Function, Array

callback can be made asynchronous if it does one of the following:

Return a promise

var run = require('run-callback')

run(
  [function (a, b) {
    return new Promise(function (rs) {
      rs(a + b)
    })
  },
  2, 1],
  function (err, sum) {
    console.log('Expected:', 3)
    console.log('Actual:', sum)
  }
)

Return a stream

var run = require('run-callback')
var Stream = require('stream')

var res = []
run(
  [function (a, b) {
    var rs = Stream.Readable({ objectMode: true })
    var data = [a, b]
    rs._read = function () {
      if (data.length) {
        this.push(data.pop())
      } else {
        this.push(null)
      }
    }
    process.nextTick(function () {
      rs.on('data', function (d) {
        res.push(d)
      })
    })
    return rs
  }, 1, 2],
  function () {
    console.log('Expected:', [2, 1])
    console.log('Actual:', res)
  }
)

Accept one more argument than given

That extra argument should be a function.

var run = require('run-callback')

run(
  [function (a, b, done) {
    process.nextTick(function () {
      done(null, a + b, a - b)
    })
  },
  2, 1],
  function (err, sum, diff) {
    console.log('Expected:', 3, 1)
    console.log('Actual:', sum, diff)
  }
)

done

Type: Function

Signature: done(err, val1, val2,...)

Synchronous

done will be called when callback finishes.

Errors thrown when executing callback will be passed to done as the first argument, and the returned value as the second.

var run = require('run-callback')

run(
  [function (a, b, done) {
    process.nextTick(function () {
      done(null, a + b, a - b)
    })
  },
  2, 1],
  function (err, sum, diff) {
    console.log('Expected:', 3, 1)
    console.log('Actual:', sum, diff)
  }
)

Promisified

done will be called when the returned promise resolves.

Any rejected values will be passed as the first arugment, and any fulfilled values as the second.

Streamified

done will be called when the returned stream ends (readable, transforms, duplex) or finishes (writable).

Errors will be passed as the first arugment.

Other

done will be called when callback invokes the last argument (next) with a possible error object and more values.

done will be called with the same arguments with next.

run.bind([ctx,]callback, arg1, arg2,...)

run.bindAsync([ctx,]callback, arg1, arg2,...)

ctx

Type: Object

If specified, it will be used as the execution context of callback.

callback

Type: Function, String

If String, it should be a method name of ctx, and that method will be treated as the callback.

args

The arguments following callback will be passed as arguments to callback when it is executed.

run.chain(callbacks, done)

Chain callbacks together. Values returned from the previous callback will be appended to the argument list of the next.

callbacks

Type: Array

done

Type: Function

Signature: done(err,...args)

var chain = require('run-callback').chain

chain([
  [function (v, cb) {
    // 1
    console.log(v)
    process.nextTick(function () {
      cb(null, 1, 2)
    })
  }, 1],
  [function (a, b, c) {
    // [3, 1, 2]
    console.log([a, b, c])
    return Promise.resolve([b, c])
  }, 3],
  function (a) {
    // [1, 2]
    console.log(a)
    return [1, 2]
  },
  function (a, cb) {
    // [1, 2]
    console.log(a)
    cb(null, 1, 2)
  },
], function (err, a, b) {
  // [1, 2]
  console.log([a, b])
})
