Ember Promise Helpers !main branch build
------

Installation

ember install ember-promise-helpers

Description

When Ember's templates encounter a promise, it won't re-render it when
the promise is resolved or rejected. For an example of the problem (where model is a specific single model, not an RSVP.hash):

``handlebars

{{#if model.author}}
The author is: {{model.author.name}}
{{else}}
No author!
{{/if}}
`

If model.author is a promise (like a an Ember Data belongsTo
relationship), the template will always contain the text: "The author
is:", rather than "No author!".

Ember Promise Helpers allow you to work with Promises easily in your
Ember templates, without wrapping your objects with something like
Ember.PromiseProxyMixin in the Route, Controller, or Component.

Example Usage

await

`handlebars
{{#if (await model.author)}}
{{get (await model.author) 'name'}}
{{else}}
No author!
{{/if}}
`

The await helper also works anywhere, because it's just a Handlebars
subexpression. For example, you can pass it to another helper...

`handlebars
{{#each (await model.comments) as |comment|}}
{{comment.author}} wrote {{comment.text}}
{{/each}}
`

Or pass it to a component:

`handlebars
{{twitter-timeline users=(await user.following)}}
`

Or use it by itself:

`handlebars
{{await model.title}}
`

is-pending

Resolves with false if the promise resolved or rejected, otherwise
true until the promise resolves or rejects.

`handlebars
{{#if (is-pending promise)}}

{{else}}
Loaded!
{{/if}}
`

is-rejected

Resolves with true if the promise rejects or fails, false
otherwise. Initial value is null until the promise is resolved.

`handlebars
{{#unless (is-pending promise)}}
{{#if (is-rejected promise)}}
rejected! :(((
{{/if}}
{{/unless}}
`

is-fulfilled

Resolves with true if the promise resolved successfully, false
otherwise. Initial value is null until the promise is resolved.

`handlebars
{{#unless (is-pending promise)}}
{{#if (is-fulfilled promise)}}
Yay it worked!
{{else}}
Oh :(
{{/if}}
{{/unless}}
`

promise-rejected-reason

Gives you the error or reason as to why a promise was rejected. Null
until the promise rejects or if the promise resolves. For example:

`javascript
// app/controllers/index.js
import Ember from 'ember';

export default Ember.Controller.extend({
promise: Ember.computed(function() {
return Ember.RSVP.reject(new Error('whoops'));
})
});
`

`handlebars
{{! app/templates/index.js }}

{{#if (is-rejected promise)}}
The error was {{get (promise-rejected-reason promise) 'message'}}.
{{/if}}
`

promise-all

Uses the Ember.RSVP.all function to create a promise.
It also accepts 1..n promises as arguments or an array as first argument.


`handlebars
{{#if (is-pending (promise-all promise1 promise2))}}

{{else}}
Loaded!
{{/if}}
`


`handlebars
{{#if (is-pending (promise-all promiseArray))}}

{{else}}
Loaded!
{{/if}}
`

promise-hash

Uses the Ember.RSVP.hash function to create a promise.


`handlebars
{{#if (is-pending (promise-hash foo=promise1 bar=promise2))}}

{{else}}
Loaded!
{{/if}}
`

This would render "The error was whoops."
