create-callback

Create callback api from synchronous function. Same as make-callback, but won't handle generators and if async function is given returns it.

Install

npm i create-callback --save
npm test

Usage

For more use-cases see the tests

var fs = require('fs')
var createCallback = require('create-callback')

var parseJsonAsync = createCallback(JSON.parse)
var readFileAsync = createCallback(fs.readFileSync)
var readAsync = createCallback(fs.readFile)
var readFile = createCallback(fs.readFileSync)

readFileAsync('./package.json') //=> throws TypeError
readAsync('./package.json', 'utf8', function (err, res) {
  console.error(err) //=> null
  console.log(res) //=> content of 'package.json'
})
readFile('./package.json', 'utf8', function (err, res) {
  console.error(err) //=> null
  console.log(res) //=> content of 'package.json'
})
parseJsonAsync('{"foo":"bar"}', function (err, res) {
  console.error(err) //=> null
  console.log(res) //=> {foo: 'bar'}
})

• always-promise: Create Bluebird Promise from given async or synchronous function. It automatically convert sync functions to async, then to promise.
• always-callback: Create callback api for given sync function. Guarantee that given function (sync or async, no matter) will always have callback api and will handle errors correctly.
• make-callback: Make synchronous function or generator to support callback api
• handle-callback: Make promise to have support for callback api, it returns promise in that same time.
• handle-arguments: Handles given Arguments object - return separatly last argument (commonly callback) and other arguments as Array. Useful in node-style callback flow.
• manage-arguments: Prevents arguments leakage - managing arguments. From Optimization killers by Petka Antonov.
• benz: Compose your control flow with absolute elegance. Support async/await, callbacks, thunks, generators, promises, observables, child processes and streams. Can power applications that need to have plugins. Useful for creating task, test and bench runners.
• hybridify: Building hybrid APIs. You can use both callback and promise in same time. Like asyncFn(name, cb).then().catch()
• is-async-function: Check that given function is async (callback) function or not. Trying to guess that based on check if callback, cb, done or next exists as function argument name.
