Context Toolkit

A lightweight toolkit to bind asynchronous contexts, inspired by Vue's Composition API. Easily provide and inject values across asynchronous scopes with support for scoped disposal.

Documentation

✨ Features

• Intuitive API: Designed to resemble Vue's provide/inject, making it familiar for developers experienced with Vue.
• Deep Injection: Seamlessly inject values across nested contexts.
• Scoped Disposal: Automatically execute all registered onScopeDispose callbacks when a scope is disposed, ensuring proper cleanup.

🚀 Example: Basic Usage

The following example demonstrates how to provide and inject values across an asynchronous context.

// Define the main function with a context
const main = withContext(async () => {
  // Provide a user object to the context
  provide('user', { id: 1, name: 'Andrew' });

  await delay(1000);

  // Call another function that uses the provided context
  doCoolStuff();
});

// A separate function that retrieves and uses the injected context
const doCoolStuff = () => {
  // Inject the user object from the context
  const user = inject('user');
  console.log(user); // Output: { id: 1, name: 'Andrew' }
};

// Execute the main function
main();

🤔 Why Use This Package?

1. Streamlined Context Management: Provides an elegant solution for managing shared state across asynchronous functions without relying on global variables or complex patterns.
2. Scoped Cleanup: Automatically dispose of resources or listeners when a scope is terminated.
3. Vue-Like Syntax: Offers a familiar and intuitive API for developers with experience in Vue's Composition API.
