ya-syn

Yet Another Synchronizer for TypeScript.

• Promise based synchronization
• Concurrency setting to support lock(n==1) and semaphore(n>1)
• Reentrant synchronization (nodejs only at this point)
• Timeout
• Throttling
• Bucket based flow control (Token Bucket / Leaky Bucket)
• Logging

Documentation

For detailed architecture, usage examples, and API documentation, please visit our Wiki:

• 🇺🇸 English Documentation
• 🇯🇵 日本語ドキュメント

The wiki includes:

• Architecture Overview: Core Semaphore, Semaphore, Synchronizer design patterns
• SynchronizerProvider: Factory pattern for managing synchronizers with forKey() and forObject()
• Synchronizer: High-level interface with timeout, throttle, event monitoring, and statistics
• LazyInitializer: Async singleton pattern with reentrancy detection
• CachedProvider: TTL-based async cache with Double-Check Locking pattern
• WeakIndexMap: Weak reference map for managing objects by parameters
• TaskExecutor: Async generator-based task processing with concurrency control
• Practical Examples: API rate limiting, database connection pools, batch processing, and more
