workersQueue

tasks queue for multiple workers, works with node@^4.x.x

howto

let worker1 = function(task) {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) {
    //do the heavy work in webworker/forked process
  })
};
let worker2 = function(task) {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) {
    //do the heavy work in webworker/forked process
  })
};
let queue = new WorkersQueue([worker1, worker2]);

queue.addTask(task).then(function(result) {
  //get result
});
queue.addTask(task).then(function(result) {
 //get result
});

all tasks will be distributed between free workers, and stack up in the pending queue
