# RSVP.js [![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/tildeio/rsvp.js.svg?branch=master)](http://travis-ci.org/tildeio/rsvp.js) [![Inline docs](http://inch-ci.org/github/tildeio/rsvp.js.svg?branch=master)](http://inch-ci.org/github/tildeio/rsvp.js)
|
||
|
RSVP.js provides simple tools for organizing asynchronous code.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Specifically, it is a tiny implementation of Promises/A+.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It works in node and the browser (IE9+, all the popular evergreen ones).
|
||
|

|

|
|
||
|
## Promises
|
||
|
|
||
|
Although RSVP is ES6 compliant, it does bring along some extra toys. If you
|
||
|
would prefer a strict ES6 subset, I would suggest checking out our sibling
|
||
|
project https://github.com/stefanpenner/es6-promise, It is RSVP but stripped
|
||
|
down to the ES6 spec features.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Node
|
||
|
|
||
|
```sh
|
||
|
yarn add --save rsvp
|
||
|
# or ...
|
||
|
npm install --save rsvp
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
`RSVP.Promise` is an implementation of
|
||
|
[Promises/A+](http://promises-aplus.github.com/promises-spec/) that passes the
|
||
|
[test suite](https://github.com/promises-aplus/promises-tests).
|
||
|
|
||
|
It delivers all promises asynchronously, even if the value is already
|
||
|
available, to help you write consistent code that doesn't change if the
|
||
|
underlying data provider changes from synchronous to asynchronous.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It is compatible with [TaskJS](https://github.com/mozilla/task.js), a library
|
||
|
by Dave Herman of Mozilla that uses ES6 generators to allow you to write
|
||
|
synchronous code with promises. It currently works in Firefox, and will work in
|
||
|
any browser that adds support for ES6 generators. See the section below on
|
||
|
TaskJS for more information.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Basic Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var RSVP = require('rsvp');
|
||
|
|
||
|
var promise = new RSVP.Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
|
||
|
// succeed
|
||
|
resolve(value);
|
||
|
// or reject
|
||
|
reject(error);
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
|
||
|
promise.then(function(value) {
|
||
|
// success
|
||
|
}).catch(function(error) {
|
||
|
// failure
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Once a promise has been resolved or rejected, it cannot be resolved or rejected
|
||
|
again.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Here is an example of a simple XHR2 wrapper written using RSVP.js:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var getJSON = function(url) {
|
||
|
var promise = new RSVP.Promise(function(resolve, reject){
|
||
|
var client = new XMLHttpRequest();
|
||
|
client.open("GET", url);
|
||
|
client.onreadystatechange = handler;
|
||
|
client.responseType = "json";
|
||
|
client.setRequestHeader("Accept", "application/json");
|
||
|
client.send();
|
||
|
|
||
|
function handler() {
|
||
|
if (this.readyState === this.DONE) {
|
||
|
if (this.status === 200) { resolve(this.response); }
|
||
|
else { reject(this); }
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
};
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
|
||
|
return promise;
|
||
|
};
|
||
|
|
||
|
getJSON("/posts.json").then(function(json) {
|
||
|
// continue
|
||
|
}).catch(function(error) {
|
||
|
// handle errors
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Chaining
|
||
|
|
||
|
One of the really awesome features of Promises/A+ promises are that they can be
|
||
|
chained together. In other words, the return value of the first
|
||
|
resolve handler will be passed to the second resolve handler.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you return a regular value, it will be passed, as is, to the next handler.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
getJSON("/posts.json").then(function(json) {
|
||
|
return json.post;
|
||
|
}).then(function(post) {
|
||
|
// proceed
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
The really awesome part comes when you return a promise from the first handler:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
getJSON("/post/1.json").then(function(post) {
|
||
|
// save off post
|
||
|
return getJSON(post.commentURL);
|
||
|
}).then(function(comments) {
|
||
|
// proceed with access to post and comments
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
This allows you to flatten out nested callbacks, and is the main feature of
|
||
|
promises that prevents "rightward drift" in programs with a lot of asynchronous
|
||
|
code.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Errors also propagate:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
getJSON("/posts.json").then(function(posts) {
|
||
|
|
||
|
}).catch(function(error) {
|
||
|
// since no rejection handler was passed to the
|
||
|
// first `.then`, the error propagates.
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can use this to emulate `try/catch` logic in synchronous code. Simply chain
|
||
|
as many resolve callbacks as you want, and add a failure handler at the end to
|
||
|
catch errors.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
getJSON("/post/1.json").then(function(post) {
|
||
|
return getJSON(post.commentURL);
|
||
|
}).then(function(comments) {
|
||
|
// proceed with access to posts and comments
|
||
|
}).catch(function(error) {
|
||
|
// handle errors in either of the two requests
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Error Handling
|
||
|
|
||
|
There are times when dealing with promises that it seems like any errors are
|
||
|
being 'swallowed', and not properly raised. This makes it extremely difficult
|
||
|
to track down where a given issue is coming from. Thankfully, `RSVP` has a
|
||
|
solution for this problem built in.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can register functions to be called when an uncaught error occurs within
|
||
|
your promises. These callback functions can be anything, but a common practice
|
||
|
is to call `console.assert` to dump the error to the console.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
RSVP.on('error', function(reason) {
|
||
|
console.assert(false, reason);
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
`RSVP` allows Promises to be labeled: `Promise.resolve(value, 'I AM A LABEL')`
|
||
|
If provided, this label is passed as the second argument to `RSVP.on('error')`
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
RSVP.on('error', function(reason, label) {
|
||
|
if (label) {
|
||
|
console.error(label);
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
console.assert(false, reason);
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
**NOTE:** promises do allow for errors to be handled asynchronously, so this
|
||
|
callback may result in false positives.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Finally
|
||
|
|
||
|
`finally` will be invoked regardless of the promise's fate, just as native
|
||
|
try/catch/finally behaves.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
findAuthor().catch(function(reason){
|
||
|
return findOtherAuthor();
|
||
|
}).finally(function(){
|
||
|
// author was either found, or not
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Arrays of promises
|
||
|
|
||
|
Sometimes you might want to work with many promises at once. If you pass an
|
||
|
array of promises to the `all()` method it will return a new promise that will
|
||
|
be fulfilled when all of the promises in the array have been fulfilled; or
|
||
|
rejected immediately if any promise in the array is rejected.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var promises = [2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13].map(function(id){
|
||
|
return getJSON("/post/" + id + ".json");
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
|
||
|
RSVP.all(promises).then(function(posts) {
|
||
|
// posts contains an array of results for the given promises
|
||
|
}).catch(function(reason){
|
||
|
// if any of the promises fails.
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Hash of promises
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you need to reference many promises at once (like `all()`), but would like
|
||
|
to avoid encoding the actual promise order you can use `hash()`. If you pass an
|
||
|
object literal (where the values are promises) to the `hash()` method it will
|
||
|
return a new promise that will be fulfilled when all of the promises have been
|
||
|
fulfilled; or rejected immediately if any promise is rejected.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The key difference to the `all()` function is that both the fulfillment value
|
||
|
and the argument to the `hash()` function are object literals. This allows you
|
||
|
to simply reference the results directly off the returned object without having
|
||
|
to remember the initial order like you would with `all()`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var promises = {
|
||
|
posts: getJSON("/posts.json"),
|
||
|
users: getJSON("/users.json")
|
||
|
};
|
||
|
|
||
|
RSVP.hash(promises).then(function(results) {
|
||
|
console.log(results.users) // print the users.json results
|
||
|
console.log(results.posts) // print the posts.json results
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## All settled and hash settled
|
||
|
|
||
|
Sometimes you want to work with several promises at once, but instead of
|
||
|
rejecting immediately if any promise is rejected, as with `all()` or `hash()`,
|
||
|
you want to be able to inspect the results of all your promises, whether they
|
||
|
fulfill or reject. For this purpose, you can use `allSettled()` and
|
||
|
`hashSettled()`. These work exactly like `all()` and `hash()`, except that they
|
||
|
fulfill with an array or hash (respectively) of the constituent promises'
|
||
|
result states. Each state object will either indicate fulfillment or rejection,
|
||
|
and provide the corresponding value or reason. The states will take
|
||
|
one of the following formats:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
{ state: 'fulfilled', value: value }
|
||
|
or
|
||
|
{ state: 'rejected', reason: reason }
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Deferred
|
||
|
|
||
|
> The `RSVP.Promise` constructor is generally a better, less error-prone choice
|
||
|
> than `RSVP.defer()`. Promises are recommended unless the specific
|
||
|
> properties of deferred are needed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Sometimes one needs to create a deferred object, without immediately specifying
|
||
|
how it will be resolved. These deferred objects are essentially a wrapper
|
||
|
around a promise, whilst providing late access to the `resolve()` and
|
||
|
`reject()` methods.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A deferred object has this form: `{ promise, resolve(x), reject(r) }`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var deferred = RSVP.defer();
|
||
|
// ...
|
||
|
deferred.promise // access the promise
|
||
|
// ...
|
||
|
deferred.resolve();
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## TaskJS
|
||
|
|
||
|
The [TaskJS](https://github.com/mozilla/task.js) library makes it possible to take
|
||
|
promises-oriented code and make it synchronous using ES6 generators.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Let's review an earlier example:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
getJSON("/post/1.json").then(function(post) {
|
||
|
return getJSON(post.commentURL);
|
||
|
}).then(function(comments) {
|
||
|
// proceed with access to posts and comments
|
||
|
}).catch(function(reason) {
|
||
|
// handle errors in either of the two requests
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Without any changes to the implementation of `getJSON`, you could write
|
||
|
the following code with TaskJS:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
spawn(function *() {
|
||
|
try {
|
||
|
var post = yield getJSON("/post/1.json");
|
||
|
var comments = yield getJSON(post.commentURL);
|
||
|
} catch(error) {
|
||
|
// handle errors
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
In the above example, `function *` is new syntax in ES6 for
|
||
|
[generators](http://wiki.ecmascript.org/doku.php?id=harmony:generators). Inside
|
||
|
a generator, `yield` pauses the generator, returning control to the function
|
||
|
that invoked the generator. In this case, the invoker is a special function
|
||
|
that understands the semantics of Promises/A, and will automatically resume the
|
||
|
generator as soon as the promise is resolved.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The cool thing here is the same promises that work with current
|
||
|
JavaScript using `.then` will work seamlessly with TaskJS once a browser
|
||
|
has implemented it!
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Instrumentation
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
function listener (event) {
|
||
|
event.guid // guid of promise. Must be globally unique, not just within the implementation
|
||
|
event.childGuid // child of child promise (for chained via `then`)
|
||
|
event.eventName // one of ['created', 'chained', 'fulfilled', 'rejected']
|
||
|
event.detail // fulfillment value or rejection reason, if applicable
|
||
|
event.label // label passed to promise's constructor
|
||
|
event.timeStamp // milliseconds elapsed since 1 January 1970 00:00:00 UTC up until now
|
||
|
event.stack // stack at the time of the event. (if 'instrument-with-stack' is true)
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
RSVP.configure('instrument', true | false);
|
||
|
// capturing the stacks is slow, so you also have to opt in
|
||
|
RSVP.configure('instrument-with-stack', true | false);
|
||
|
|
||
|
// events
|
||
|
RSVP.on('created', listener);
|
||
|
RSVP.on('chained', listener);
|
||
|
RSVP.on('fulfilled', listener);
|
||
|
RSVP.on('rejected', listener);
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Events are only triggered when `RSVP.configure('instrument')` is true, although
|
||
|
listeners can be registered at any time.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Building & Testing
|
||
|
|
||
|
Custom tasks:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `npm test` - build & test
|
||
|
* `npm test:node` - build & test just node
|
||
|
* `npm test:server` - build/watch & test
|
||
|
* `npm run build` - Build
|
||
|
* `npm run build:production` - Build production (with minified output)
|
||
|
* `npm start` - build, watch and run interactive server at http://localhost:4200'
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Releasing
|
||
|
|
||
|
Check what release-it will do by running `npm run-script dry-run-release`.
|
||
|
To actually release, run `node_modules/.bin/release-it`.
|
