all-done

A simple node package that supports firing a callback once all other callbacks are completed.

Installation

Simply install using npm.

$ npm install all-done

Usage

###Basic usage

some_function = function(callback) {
  // ...
}

allDone = require('all-done')

completion_callback = function() {
  // Do something once everything is complete
}

callback_maker = allDone(completion_callback)

optional_individual_callback = function() {
  // ...
}

some_function(callback_maker(optional_individual_callback));

Note that any arguments that are passed from the some_function call to it's callback will be forwarded(including the this context) to the optional_individual_callback.

Caveats

In the example below, it is possible for the completion_callback to be fired multiple times. The library does not prevent nor protect from this.

allDone = require('all-done')

completion_callback = function() {
  console.log("Done")
}

callback_maker = allDone(completion_callback)

setTimeout(50, callback_maker(function() {console.log("Callback 1")}))
setTimeout(100, function() {
  setTimeout(50, callback_maker(function() {console.log("Callback 2")}))
})

The above will output the following:

Callback 1
Done
Callback 2
Done
