- Added
Promise.fold
(#47)
- Make
Promise.is
work with promises from old versions of the library (#41) - Make
Promise.delay
properly break out of the current loop (#40) - Allow upvalues captured by queued callbacks to be garbage collected when the Promise resolves by deleting the queues when the Promise settles (#39)
Promise.delay
now usesos.clock
- Made
Promise.delay
behavior more consistent when creating new timers in the callback of a timer.
- Fixed a bug where queued
andThen
andcatch
callbacks did not begin on their own new threads.
- Runtime errors are now represented by objects. You must call tostring on rejection values before assuming they are strings (this was always good practice, but is required now).
- Yielding is now allowed in
Promise.new
,andThen
, andPromise.try
executors. - Errors now have much better stack traces due to using
xpcall
internally instead ofpcall
. - Stack traces will now be more direct and not include as many internal calls within the Promise library.
- Chained promises from
resolve()
or returning from andThen now have improved rejection messages for debugging. Promise.async
has been renamed toPromise.defer
(Promise.async
references same function for compatibility)- Promises now have a
__tostring
metamethod, which returnsPromise(Resolved)
or whatever the current status is. Promise:timeout()
now rejects with aPromise.Error(Promise.Error.Kind.TimedOut)
object. (Formerly rejected with the string"Timed out"
)- Attaching a handler to a cancelled Promise now rejects with a
Promise.Error(Promise.Error.Kind.AlreadyCancelled)
. (Formerly rejected with the string"Promise is cancelled"
) - Let
Promise:expect()
throw rejection objects
- New Promise Error class is exposed at
Promise.Error
, which includes helpful static methods likePromise.Error.is
. - Added
Promise:now()
(#23) - Added
Promise.each
(#21) - Added
Promise.retry
(#16) - Added
Promise.fromEvent
(#14) - Improved test coverage for asynchronous and time-driven functions
- Changed
Promise.is
to be safe when dealing with tables that have an__index
metamethod that creates an error. Promise.delay
resolve value (time passed) is now more accurate (previously passed time based on when we started resuming threads instead of the current time. This is a very minor difference.)
- Fix issue with rejecting with non-string not propagating correctly.
- Add Promise.tap
- Fix bug with C functions not working when passed to andThen
- Fix issue with Promise.race/all always cancelling instead of only cancelling if the Promise has no other consumers
- Make error checking more robust across many methods.
- Promise.Status members are now strings instead of symbols, and indexing a non-existent value will error.
- Improve stack traces
- Promise.promisify will now turn errors into rejections even if they occur after a yield.
- Add Promise.try
- Add
done
,doneCall
,doneReturn
- Add
andThenReturn
,finallyReturn
- Add
Promise.delay
,promise:timeout
- Add
Promise.some
,Promise.any
- Add
Promise.allSettled
Promise.all
andPromise.race
are now cancellable.
Promise.is
now only checks if the object is "andThennable" (has anandThen
method).
- Make unhandled rejection warning trigger on next Heartbeat
- Remove
Promise.spawn
from the public API. Promise.async
still inherits the behavior fromPromise.spawn
.Promise.async
now wraps the callback inpcall
and rejects if an error occurred.Promise.new
has now has an explicit error message when attempting to yield inside of it.
Promise.promisify
now usescoroutine.wrap
instead ofPromise.spawn
- Add
finallyCall
,andThenCall
- Add
awaitValue
- Add Promise.race
- Add Promise.async
- Add Promise.spawn
- Add Promise.promisify
finally
now silences the unhandled rejection warningonCancel
now returns if the Promise was cancelled at call time.- Cancellation now propagates downstream.
- Add
Promise:awaitStatus
- Calling
resolve
with a Promise while the resolving Promise is cancelled instantly cancels the passed Promise as an optimization. finally
now passes the Promise status as a parameter.
