Getting Stated

This module default exports createDeferred, which is a factory function that creates Deferred objects.

import createDeferred from '@bitty/deferred';

const deferred = createDeferred<boolean>();

Deferred objects exposes a Promise and methods to reject or resolve it.

import createDeferred, { Deferred } from '@bitty/deferred';

let deferred: Deferred<number>;

// ...

deferred.promise
  .then(value => console.log(`You received $ ${value.toFixed(2)}!`))
  .catch(reason => console.error(`Couldn't receive because of `, reason));

deferred.resolve(10);
//=> It logs "You received $ 50.00!" in the console.

deferred.reject(new Error('The account number is invalid.'));
//=> Won't log anything because promise is already resolved.

We also export the Deferred interface. Which simply defines the promise property (an instance of Promise) and the methods that change it.

interface Deferred<T> {
  readonly promise: Promise<T>;
  reject(reason: unknown): void;
  resolve(value: T | PromiseLike<T>): void;
}
