try-catch-callback

try/catch block with a callback, used in try-catch-core. Use it when you don't care about asyncness so much and don't want guarantees. If you care use try-catch-core.

Install

npm i try-catch-callback --save

Usage

For more use-cases see the tests

const tryCatchCallback = require('try-catch-callback')

tryCatchCallback

Pass a synchronous fn that returns some result and handle completion or errors in cb if given, otherwise it returns thunk which accepts that cb. It's possible to not work in "async mode", if that's the case try to use try-catch-core for your case, which guarantees that cb is called only once and always in next tick, using dezalgo and once.

Params

• <fn> {Function}: function to be called.
• [cb] {Function}: callback with cb(err, res) signature.
• [opts] {Object}: optional options, such as context and args
• [opts.context] {Object}: context to be passed to fn
• [opts.args] {Array}: custom argument(s) to be pass to fn, given value is arrayified
• [opts.passCallback] {Boolean}: pass true if you want cb to be passed to fn args.
• returns {Function} thunk: if cb not given.

Example

var tryCatch = require('try-catch-callback')

tryCatch(function () {
  return 'fox qux'
}, function done (err, res) {
  if (err) return console.error(err)
  console.log(res) // => 'fox qux'
})

passing custom context

const tryCatch = require('try-catch-callback')

tryCatch(function () {
  console.log(this.foo) // => 'bar'
  console.log(this.baz) // => 'qux'
  return `${this.foo}/${this.baz}`
}, function done (err, res) {
  if (err) return console.error(err)
  console.log(res) // => 'bar/qux'
}, {
  context: { foo: 'bar', baz: 'qux' }
})

passing custom arguments

const tryCatchCallback = require('try-catch-callback')
const done = (err, res) => console.log(res)
const opts = {
  args: [ { foo: 'zzz' }, 123 ]
}

tryCatchCallback((ctx, qux) => {
  return ctx.foo + qux
}, done, opts)
// => 'zzz123'

returning a thunk

const tryCatch = require('try-catch-callback')
const thunk = tryCatch((a, b) => {
  return a + b + 3
}, { args: [1, 2] })

thunk((err, res) => {
  console.log(res) // => 6
})
