promise-break Build Status

Break out of a promise chain

This is an experiment. I personally wouldn't recommend this.
Feedback wanted on the issue tracker.

See "How do I break out of a promise chain?" for a better way.

Install

$ npm install --save promise-break

Usage

Here the onlyRunConditional promises are skipped if conditional is falsy:

const pBreak = require('promise-break');
 
alwaysRun1()
    .then(() => alwaysRun2())
    .then(conditional => conditional || pBreak('🦄'))
    .then(() => onlyRunConditional1())
    .then(() => onlyRunConditional2())
    .then(() => onlyRunConditional3())
    .then(() => onlyRunConditional4())
    .catch(pBreak.end)
    .then(console.log);
    //=> '🦄'

API

pBreak([value])

Starts the break. Any .then()'s between here and pBreak.end() are skipped.

value

Value to pass down the chain after pBreak.end().

pBreak.end

Ends the break. Make sure not to have any other .catch() handlers between pBreak() and here.
