Usage

Once you require breeze-async, the following API will be available.

var async = require('breeze-async');

.forEach (array, iterator, done)

  • @param {Array} array to iterate
  • @param {Function} iterator function
  • @param {Function} callback on complete or error
  • @cb {Error|null} if error

Apply an iterator to each item in an array in parellel. Execute a callback when all items have been completed or immediately if there is an error provided.

async.forEach([ 1, 2, 3 ], function (i, next) {
  setTimeout(function () {
    console.log(i);
    next();
  }, 10);
}, function (err) {
  should.not.exist(err);
  console.log('all done');
});

.forEachSeries (array, iterator, done)

  • @param {Array} array to iterate
  • @param {Function} iterator function
  • @param {Function} callback on complete or error
  • @cb {Error|null} if error

Apply an iterator to each item in an array serially. Execute a callback when all items have been completed or immediately if there is is an error provided.

async.forEachSeries([ 1, 2, 3 ], function (i, next) {
  setTimeout(function () {
    console.log(i);
    next();
  }, 10);
}, function (err) {
  should.not.exist(err);
  console.log('all done');
});

.parallel (fns, done)

  • @param {Array|Object} functions to execute
  • @param {Function} callback on completion or error
  • @cb {Error|null} if error
  • @cb {Array|Object} reflecting the results

Execute a collection of functions in parellel and execute a callback upon completion or occurance of an error. Functions can be provided as either an array or an object. Each function will be passed a callback to signal completion. The callback accepts either an error for the first argument, or null for the first argument and results following. The results will be provied as the second argument of the callback in-kind, maintaining the order of the input array or the keys of the input object.
