API

Note: all methods are thoroughly documented using JSDoc available in TypeScript declaration. This is a short representation of that documentation.

$3

asyncComputed is the only method exported by this package. It is a function that accepts either a function (getter function) or an object of Options, which has both watch and getter functions, the latter accepts watched values as an argument.

Every getter function (but not watcher) is executed with this bound to an object of AsyncGetterThis, which contains function to register a callback for the cancellation of the call and checking whether the call has been cancelled.

It returns a reactive AsyncComputedRef object.

Properties:

- watch: a method that is called to retrieve values of reactive references in synchronous context. It can return a value that will be later passed to the getter as an argument.
- get: a method that is called to asynchronously compute the value for the reactive values. If watch has returned a value, it will be provided as the first argument. This function can be both synchronous (return value directly) or synchronous (return a promise). It is called with this set to AsyncGetterThis object.

$3

Properties:

- canceled: a getter that returns a boolean which will be true if reactive values have changed and any further computation in that call is redundant as any return value will be discarded.
- onCancel: a method that takes a function to be called when the computation gets cancelled. Can be used multiple times with different callbacks, each of which will be subscribed to an event of possible cancellation. This can be used to create AbortController.

$3

Properties:

- value: a getter that returns fulfilled value (or undefined if value is not available because the computation is still pending or has been rejected).
- status: a getter that returns a string representation of the current status (pending, fulfilled, rejected).
- error: a getter that returns the error that the computation has been rejected with, or undefined if it never rejected.
- pending: a getter that returns a boolean value which indicates whether the current computation is still pending.
- fulfilled: a getter that returns a boolean value which indicates whether the current computation has been fulfilled.
- rejected: a getter that returns a boolean value which indicates whether the current computation has been rejected.

Note:

Because it is a custom object, AsyncComputedRef does not work like the other references in Vue: it cannot be de-referenced, it is not picked up by the compiler in setup function (requiring mandatory usage of .value`).

Compatibility with Vue 2

This package should be compatible with Vue 2, but this is not guaranteed. Vue 3 is recommended.
