Usage

For more use-cases see the tests

thenCallback

Basically, you just pass a promise and it returns promise, but .then from the returned promise can accept a callback function, instead of two arguments as usual - one for result, one for error.
Notice that it also works as normal .then if you pass two arguments.

  • <promise> {Promise}
  • return {Promise}

Example

const thenCallback = require('then-callback')
const promise = Promise.resolve(123)
 
thenCallback(promise).then((err, res) => {
  console.log('err:', err) // => null
  console.log('res:', res) // => 123
})
 
// but also works as normal `.then`
thenCallback(promise).then((res) => {
  console.log('res:', res) // => 123
}, (err) => {
  console.log('err:', err)
})

You just need to wrap a promise, then you can use .then as usual, or to pass callback-style function to it as first argument.

Example

const fs = require('fs')
const redolent = require('redolent')
const readFile = redolent(fs.readFile)
const thenCallback = require('then-callback')
 
const thenCallback = require('then-callback')
var promise = readFile('package.json', 'utf8')
promise = thenCallback(promise)
 
promise.then((err, res) => {
  if (err) return console.error(err)
  console.log(JSON.parse(res).name) //=> 'then-callback'
})

Otherwise, if you pass two arguments and second is function, it will work as normal .then.

Example

const thenCallback = require('then-callback')
const NativePromise = require('native-or-another')()
 
// rejected promise
var promise = NativePromise.reject(new Error('foo bar'))
thenCallback(promise).then(console.log, console.error) //=> Error: foo bar
 
// resolved promise
var promise = NativePromise.resolve(123)
thenCallback(promise).then(console.log, console.error) //=> '123'
