AsyncKit provides harness for `parallel` and `serial` iterators over list of items represented by arrays or objects. |
|
Optionally it accepts abort function (should be synchronously return by iterator for each item), and terminates left over jobs upon an error event. For specific iteration order built-in (`ascending` and `descending`) and custom sort helpers also supported, via `asynckit.serialOrdered` method. |
|
|
|
It ensures async operations to keep behavior more stable and prevent `Maximum call stack size exceeded` errors, from sync iterators. |

## Install |
|
|
|
```sh |
|
$ npm install --save asynckit |
|
``` |
|
|
|
## Examples |
|
|
|
### Parallel Jobs |
|
|
|
Runs iterator over provided array in parallel. Stores output in the `result` array, |
|
on the matching positions. In unlikely event of an error from one of the jobs, |
|
will terminate rest of the active jobs (if abort function is provided) |
|
and return error along with salvaged data to the main callback function. |
|
|
|
#### Input Array |
|
|
|
```javascript |
|
var parallel = require('asynckit').parallel |
|
, assert = require('assert') |
|
; |
|
|
|
var source = [ 1, 1, 4, 16, 64, 32, 8, 2 ] |
|
, expectedResult = [ 2, 2, 8, 32, 128, 64, 16, 4 ] |
|
, expectedTarget = [ 1, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 ] |
|
, target = [] |
|
; |
|
|
|
parallel(source, asyncJob, function(err, result) |
|
{ |
|
assert.deepEqual(result, expectedResult); |
|
assert.deepEqual(target, expectedTarget); |
|
}); |
|
|
|
// async job accepts one element from the array |
|
// and a callback function |
|
function asyncJob(item, cb) |
|
{ |
|
// different delays (in ms) per item |
|
var delay = item * 25; |
|
|
|
// pretend different jobs take different time to finish |
|
// and not in consequential order |
|
var timeoutId = setTimeout(function() { |
|
target.push(item); |
|
cb(null, item * 2); |
|
}, delay); |
|
|
|
// allow to cancel "leftover" jobs upon error |
|
// return function, invoking of which will abort this job |
|
return clearTimeout.bind(null, timeoutId); |
|
} |
|
``` |
|
|
|
More examples could be found in [test/test-parallel-array.js](test/test-parallel-array.js). |
|
|
|
#### Input Object |
|
|
|
Also it supports named jobs, listed via object. |
|
|
|
```javascript |
|
var parallel = require('asynckit/parallel') |
|
, assert = require('assert') |
|
; |
|
|
|
var source = { first: 1, one: 1, four: 4, sixteen: 16, sixtyFour: 64, thirtyTwo: 32, eight: 8, two: 2 } |
|
, expectedResult = { first: 2, one: 2, four: 8, sixteen: 32, sixtyFour: 128, thirtyTwo: 64, eight: 16, two: 4 } |
|
, expectedTarget = [ 1, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 ] |
|
, expectedKeys = [ 'first', 'one', 'two', 'four', 'eight', 'sixteen', 'thirtyTwo', 'sixtyFour' ] |
|
, target = [] |
|
, keys = [] |
|
; |
|
|
|
parallel(source, asyncJob, function(err, result) |
|
{ |
|
assert.deepEqual(result, expectedResult); |
|
assert.deepEqual(target, expectedTarget); |
|
assert.deepEqual(keys, expectedKeys); |
|
}); |
|
|
|
// supports full value, key, callback (shortcut) interface |
|
function asyncJob(item, key, cb) |
|
{ |
|
// different delays (in ms) per item |
|
var delay = item * 25; |
|
|
|
// pretend different jobs take different time to finish |
|
// and not in consequential order |
|
var timeoutId = setTimeout(function() { |
|
keys.push(key); |
|
target.push(item); |
|
cb(null, item * 2); |
|
}, delay); |
|
|
|
// allow to cancel "leftover" jobs upon error |
|
// return function, invoking of which will abort this job |
|
return clearTimeout.bind(null, timeoutId); |
|
} |
|
``` |
|
|
|
More examples could be found in [test/test-parallel-object.js](test/test-parallel-object.js). |
|
|
|
### Serial Jobs |
|
|
|
Runs iterator over provided array sequentially. Stores output in the `result` array, |
|
on the matching positions. In unlikely event of an error from one of the jobs, |
|
will not proceed to the rest of the items in the list |
|
and return error along with salvaged data to the main callback function. |
|
|
|
#### Input Array |
|
|
|
```javascript |
|
var serial = require('asynckit/serial') |
|
, assert = require('assert') |
|
; |
|
|
|
var source = [ 1, 1, 4, 16, 64, 32, 8, 2 ] |
|
, expectedResult = [ 2, 2, 8, 32, 128, 64, 16, 4 ] |
|
, expectedTarget = [ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 ] |
|
, target = [] |
|
; |
|
|
|
serial(source, asyncJob, function(err, result) |
|
{ |
|
assert.deepEqual(result, expectedResult); |
|
assert.deepEqual(target, expectedTarget); |
|
}); |
|
|
|
// extended interface (item, key, callback) |
|
// also supported for arrays |
|
function asyncJob(item, key, cb) |
|
{ |
|
target.push(key); |
|
|
|
// it will be automatically made async |
|
// even it iterator "returns" in the same event loop |
|
cb(null, item * 2); |
|
} |
|
``` |
|
|
|

|
|
|
#### Input Object |
|
|
|
Also it supports named jobs, listed via object. |
|
|
|
```javascript |
|
var serial = require('asynckit').serial |
|
, assert = require('assert') |
|
; |
|
|
|
var source = [ 1, 1, 4, 16, 64, 32, 8, 2 ] |
|
, expectedResult = [ 2, 2, 8, 32, 128, 64, 16, 4 ] |
|
, expectedTarget = [ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 ] |
|
, target = [] |
|
; |
|
|
|
var source = { first: 1, one: 1, four: 4, sixteen: 16, sixtyFour: 64, thirtyTwo: 32, eight: 8, two: 2 } |
|
, expectedResult = { first: 2, one: 2, four: 8, sixteen: 32, sixtyFour: 128, thirtyTwo: 64, eight: 16, two: 4 } |
|
, expectedTarget = [ 1, 1, 4, 16, 64, 32, 8, 2 ] |
|
, target = [] |
|
; |
|
|
|
|
|
serial(source, asyncJob, function(err, result) |
|
{ |
|
assert.deepEqual(result, expectedResult); |
|
assert.deepEqual(target, expectedTarget); |
|
}); |
|
|
|
// shortcut interface (item, callback) |
|
// works for object as well as for the arrays |
|
function asyncJob(item, cb) |
|
{ |
|
target.push(item); |
|
|
|
// it will be automatically made async |
|
// even it iterator "returns" in the same event loop |
|
cb(null, item * 2); |
|
} |
|
``` |
|
|

|
|
|
_Note: Since _object_ is an _unordered_ collection of properties, |
|
it may produce unexpected results with sequential iterations. |
|
Whenever order of the jobs' execution is important please use `serialOrdered` method._ |
|
|
|
### Ordered Serial Iterations |
|
|
|
TBD |
|
|
|
For example [compare-property](compare-property) package. |
|
|
|
### Streaming interface |
|
|
|
TBD |
