or-promise

Accept a callback OR return a promise (easily).

example

const orPromise = require('or-promise')
 
function greetSoon (cb) {
    cb = orPromise(cb)
    setImediate(cb, null, 'hello')
 
    // this will return undefined if cb was provided, otherwise
    // it will return a promise
    return cb.promise
}
 
// we can now use our fancy function either way...
greetSoon(function (err, msg) {
    if (err) return console.error(err)
    console.log(msg)
})
 
// or a promise
greetSoon().then(console.log).catch(console.error)

example with default parameters

Same function as above, but using default parameters (if your JS engine supports it):

const orPromise = require('or-promise')
 
function greetSoon (cb = orPromise()) {
    setImediate(cb, null, 'hello')
    return cb.promise
}

api

var orPromise = require('or-promise')

cb = orPromise([cb])

When called with a (truthy) cb argument, orPromise simply returns the argument it was called with, unaltered.

If called with no argument, a function will be returned that is usable as an error-first callback. This function will have a promise property. When the returned callback is invoked, the promise property will be:

• resolved if the callback was invoked with a falsy first argument
• rejected if the callback was invoked with a truthy first argument

If resolved, the resolved value will be the 2nd argument supplied to the callback. If rejected, the error will be the 1st argument supplied to the callback.
