async-promised

Native promise wrapper around caolan/async

It needs an ES6 environment to work (Promises, Block-scoped binding constructs, etc) like modern browsers and node 6.

Example:

const async = require('async-promised');
const sleep = require('sleep-promise');

await async.each([1, 3, 2], async x => {
  const ms = x * 25
  await sleep(ms)
  console.log(`I'm at element ${x}, and I waited ${ms}`)
});

Limitations

• A promise can't be resolved with multiple values.
• A promise can't be rejected with an Error and in the catch scope access the current results.
• A promise can only resolve one time.

Missing utilities

• cargo
• queue
• priorityQueue

Roadmap

• Wrap the original async library with promise interface
• Implement all the utilities and drop async dependency
• Fix TypeScript typings
• Fix docs
