Feature

1. Provide propsDeep() to deal with object with promises nested in deep level
2. Enable calling functions as other static methods on Promise by mounting withinit()
3. Support ES6 module.
4. Support typescript. Provide type declaration
5. Provide detailed documentation including: README, tsDoc in IDE and API pages

Installation

npm install @pearden/promise-props
# or
yarn add @pearden/promise-props

Quick Start

// mount props() and propsDeep() methods on Promise
init() ;

await Promise.props({
    name: "promise",
    age: Promise.resolve(123),
}) ;
/* output
{
	name: "promise",
	age: 123,
}
*/

await Promise.propsDeep({
    sub: {
        name: "promise",
        age: Promise.resolve(123),
    }
}) ;
/* output
{
	sub: {
        name: "promise",
        age: 123,
    }
}
*/

Usage

Import

// Enable calling like Promise.props and Promise.propsDeep
// Do this in your main.[ts|js] file
init()

// or import whenever you want
import {props, propsDeep} from "promise-props"

Props

Like Promise.all，but only deal with top level promise in the object passed in.

• Other top level none promise properties will be shallow copied to the result object
• Nonenumerable properties will be ignored.

PropsDeep

Deal with any level promise nested in the object passed into function.

FAQs

How props() is implemented

Notice: nonenumerable properties will always be ignored.

All the top level promise will be extract into an array. Then call Promise.all on this array. If all promises reslove, then the resolve value will be set into result object with the origin key of promise properties.

If any top level promise reject, as props() is an async function, it will automatically return an promise with the same reject reason.

Finally, other top level properties will be shallow copied to result object.

How propsDeep() is implemented

Use lodash to deep copy the object passed in as the result object

Use tarverse to traverse object filtering out all promise properties at any level and record the property path in the object.

Call Promise.all on promises array and get an array of all resloved value.

Use``object-path` lib to set value into result object with paths

Finally return the result
