maxAsync
A very simple function for executing async tasks in parallel, with a maximum number of simultaneous tasks.
Usage
The function takes an array of async functions as its first argument. It's second argument is the maximum number of these functions that should be executed in parallel.
const maxAsync = require('@dawaltconley/max-async');
const tasks = [
async function () { /* do some async stuff */ },
async function () { /* do some more async stuff */ },
// etc...
];
maxAsync(tasks, 4) // execute all tasks, maximum 4 at a time
.then(results => {
// do something with the results;
});The function returns a flat array of all async task results, similar to Promise.all. The index of each result matches the index of its function in the input array.
