API

wait(name, order)

Wait for an asynchronous order. Orders should be promise or function. Returns the order promise.

// promise order
const promise = sendMessageAsync('hello')
wait('SEND_MESSAGE', promise)
 
// function order
wait('SEND_MESSAGE', async () => {
    await sendMessageAsync('hello')
})

isWaiting(name)

Returns whether order is waiting or not.

import {isWaiting, wait} from 'use-waiter'
 
isWaiting('TASK') // => false
 
wait('TASK', asyncTask()).then(() => {
    isWaiting('TASK') // => false
})
 
isWaiting('TASK') // => true

useWait(name[, opts])

A react hook that subscribes to changes in order status.

options

delay

When promise changes to pending, respond as late as the delay time. if promise is completed within the delay time, it does not respond. This prevents flashing when the pending time is short.The default value is 0ms.

duration

When the promise is completed before the duration time, respond after the remaining duration time. This will ensure minimum motion time to prevent flashing. The default value is 0ms.

new Waiter()

Create an independent waiter instance.

import {Waiter, isWaiting} from 'use-waiter'
 
const waiter = new Waiter()
waiter.wait('TASK', asyncTask())
 
waiter.isWaiting('TASK') // => true
isWaiting('TASK') // => false

useLocalWait([opts])

A react hook for local use within a component.

import {useLocalWait} from 'use-waiter'
 
function App(){
    const [isSending, wait] = useLocalWait({delay: 300, duration: 600})
 
    if(isSending){
        return <Loading />
    }
 
    const onClick = () => {
        wait(sendMessageAsync('hello'))
    }
 
    return (
        <>
            <Content />
            <button onClick={onClick}>send!</button>
        </>)
}

options

Same as useWait options.

createFixedWait(orderer)

Create a waiter that performs a fixed single order.

import {createFixedWait} from 'use-waiter'
 
const sendMessage = createFixedWait(async (text) => {
    await sendMessageAsync(text)
})
 
function App(){
    const isSending = sendMessage.useWait({delay: 300, duration: 600})
 
    if(isSending){
        return <Loading />
    }
 
    const onClick = () => {
        sendMessage('hello')
    }
 
    return (
        <>
            <Content />
            <button onClick={onClick}>send!</button>
        </>)
}

useWaitBuffer(isWaiting, value)

If you use duration, you are still waiting, even though the actual asynchronous request is finished. This is useful if you want to show the results of the request after waiting.

function App(){
    import {useWait, useWaitBuffer} from 'use-waiter'
 
    const {fetchedData: realData} = useContext(ApiContext)
    const isWaiting = useWait('API_FETCHED_DATA', {duration: 600})
    const displayData = useWaitBuffer(isWaiting, realData)
 
    /* ... */
}
