PPP

A slim promise implementation.

• Status: UNSTABLE - Versions 0.8.x are preview releases, with possible API breaking changes between patch versions. I look forward to nailing down the API for version 1.0.x.

Goals

• to provide a simple, no-frills, compliant promise implementation.
• to limit the use of closure scope / function binding in an effort to lower memory thrashing in projects that make extensive promise use.
• to provide a measure of debug-ability despite asynchronous execution.

Usage

npm install ppp

var ppp = require('ppp');

var defer = ppp.Promise.defer();

defer.promise.then(function onSuccess(res) {
  console.log(res);
});

defer.resolve('hello world');

As a native polyfill

(function (global) {
  if (!global.Promise) {
    global.Promise = require('ppp').Promise;
  }
})(this);
