node-chain-tiny

A simple control flow library.

The problem which this library solves is the nest and error handling of callback.

For exsample.

asyncFunc1(function(err, result1) {
  if (err) return callback(err);
  // do something
  asyncFunc2(function(err, result2) {
    if (err) return callback(err);
    // do something
    asyncFunc3(function(err, result3) {
      if (err) return callback(err);
      // do something
      callback(null, result);
    });
  });
});

This code becomes like this by using chain-tiny.

chain(function(next) {
  asyncFunc1(next);
})
.chain(function(result1, next) {
  // do something
  asyncFunc2(next);
})
.chain(function(result2, next) {
  // do something
  asyncFunc3(next);
})
.end(function(err, result3) {
  // do something
  callback(err, result);
});

Install

$ npm install chain-tiny

Usage

simple

var chain = require('chain-tiny');

chain(function(next) {
  setTimeout(function() {
    next(null, 'foo');
  }, 100);
})
.chain(function(foo, next) {
  console.log(foo); // => foo
  setTimeout(function() {
    next(null, 'bar', 'baz');
  }, 1);
})
.end(function(err, bar, baz) {
  console.log(bar); // => bar
  console.log(baz); // => baz
});

using this.next

var chain = require('chain-tiny');

chain(function() {
  var next = this.next;
  setTimeout(function() {
    next(null, 'foo');
  }, 100);
})
.chain(function(foo) {
  var next = this.next;
  console.log(foo); // => foo
  setTimeout(function() {
    next(null, 'bar', 'baz');
  }, 1);
})
.end(function(err, bar, baz) {
  console.log(bar); // => bar
  console.log(baz); // => baz
});

error handling

var chain = require('chain-tiny');

chain(function(next) {
  next('Error!');
})
.chain(function(next) {
  // not pass here
  next(null, 'foo');
})
.end(function(err, foo) {
  console.log(foo); // => undefined
  console.log(err); // => Error!
});

parallel

var chain = require('chain-tiny');
var results = [];

chain.parallel({
  foo: function(next) {
    setTimeout(function() {
      results.push(1);
      next(null, 1);
    }, 100);
  },
  bar: function(next) {
    setTimeout(function() {
      results.push(2);
      next(null, 2);
    }, 1)
  }
})
.end(function(err, res) {
  console.log(res); // => { foo: 1, bar: 2 }
  console.log(results); // => [2, 1]
});

chain:

var chain = require('chain-tiny');
var results = [];

chain(function(next) {
  // do something
  next();
})
.parallel({
  foo: function(next) {
    setTimeout(function() {
      results.push(1);
      next(null, 1);
    }, 100);
  },
  bar: function(next) {
    setTimeout(function() {
      results.push(2);
      next(null, 2);
    }, 1)
  }
})
.end(function(err, res) {
  console.log(res); // => { foo: 1, bar: 2 }
  console.log(results); // => [2, 1]
});

each

var chain = require('chain-tiny');

chain.each({ foo: 'bar', hoge: 'fuga'}, function(val, key, next) {
  setTimeout(function() {
    next(null, key + ':' + val);
  }, 1);
})
.end(function(err, results) { // or .chain(results, next)
  console.log(results); // => { foo: 'foo:bar', hoge: 'hoge:fuga' }
});

chain:

var chain = require('chain-tiny');

chain(function(next) {
  next(null, { foo: 'bar', hoge: 'fuga'});
})
.each(function(val, key, next) {
  setTimeout(function() {
    next(null, key + ':' + val);
  }, 1);
})
.end(function(err, results) { // or .chain(results, next)
  console.log(results); // => { foo: 'foo:bar', hoge: 'hoge:fuga' }
});

or,

var chain = require('chain-tiny');

chain(function(next) {
  next(null);
})
.each({ foo: 'bar', hoge: 'fuga'}, function(val, key, next) {
  setTimeout(function() {
    next(null, key + ':' + val);
  }, 1);
})
.end(function(err, results) { // or .chain(results, next)
  console.log(results); // => { foo: 'foo:bar', hoge: 'hoge:fuga' }
});

parallel:

var chain = require('chain-tiny');

chain.eachParallel({ foo: 'bar', hoge: 'fuga'}, function(val, key, next) {
  setTimeout(function() {
    next(null, key + ':' + val);
  }, 1);
})
.end(function(err, results) { // or .chain(results, next)
  console.log(results); // => { foo: 'foo:bar', hoge: 'hoge:fuga' }
});

Array:

var chain = require('chain-tiny');

chain.eachParallel(['foo', 'bar'], function(val, key, next) {
  setTimeout(function() {
    next(null, key + ':' + val);
  }, 1);
})
.end(function(err, results) { // or .chain(results, next)
  console.log(results); // => [ '0:foo', '1:bar' ]
});
