execute an arbitrary number of arbitrary functions in sequence over the same data in javascript
npm install bernstein##Use
Check out the tests for detailed use...
To install you can use: bower install bernstein --save or for server side use: npm install bernstein --save
To create an execution stack you pass bernstein.create an array of functions. It then returns a function that can pass data to for execution. The returned function returns a promise that allows you to collect the finished data when all functions have been executed.
For example:
``
var funcArr = [
function (data, next) {
data.num ++;
next(data);
}
, function (data, next) {
data.num ++;
next(data);
}
, function (data) {
return new Promise(function (res, rej){
data.num ++;
res(data);
});
}
]
, run = bernstein.create(funcArr);
run({num: 10}).then(function (finalData) {
console.log(finalData);
});
`
The functions in the array recieve three possible parameters:
- data the data of returned by the previous functionnext` a function that moves the stack on to the next function. Pass next the data you want to pass on. Alternately your function can return a promise and the data that the promise resolves with will be passed onto the next function in the stack. This allows for async operations (file reads, network requests, etc.) to easily be included as part of the execution stack.
