Installation

$ npm install metasync

Asynchronous functions composition

metasync(fns)(data, done)

  • fns - array of callback-last functions, callback contranct err-first
  • data - input data (optional)
  • done - err-first callback
  • Returns: composed callback-last / err-first function

composition

const composed = metasync([f1, f2, f3, [[f4, f5, [f6, f7], f8]], f9]);
  • Array of functions gives sequential execution: [f1, f2, f3]
  • Double brackets array of functions gives parallel execution: [[f1, f2, f3]]

Example:

const metasync = require('metasync');
const fs = require('fs');
 
// Data collector (collect keys by count)
const dc = metasync.collect(4);
 
dc.pick('user', { name: 'Marcus Aurelius' });
fs.readFile('HISTORY.md', (err, data) => dc.collect('history', err, data));
dc.take('readme', fs.readFile, 'README.md');
setTimeout(() => dc.pick('timer', { date: new Date() }), 1000);
 
// Key collector (collect certain keys by names)
const kc = metasync
  .collect(['user', 'history', 'readme', 'timer'])
  .timeout(2000)
  .distinct()
  .done((err, data) => console.log(data));
 
kc.pick('user', { name: 'Marcus Aurelius' });
kc.take('history', fs.readFile, 'HISTORY.md');
kc.take('readme', fs.readFile, 'README.md');
setTimeout(() => kc.pick('timer', { date: new Date() }), 1000);
