Basic promise syntax

Promise 예시

syntax of the callback

older version

chooseToppings(function(toppings) {
  placeOrder(toppings, function(order) {
    collectOrder(order, function(pizza) {
      eatPizza(pizza);
    }, failureCallback);
  }, failureCallback);
}, failureCallback);

Arrow function version

chooseToppings()
.then(toppings =>
  placeOrder(toppings)
)
.then(order =>
  collectOrder(order)
)
.then(pizza =>
  eatPizza(pizza)
)
.catch(failureCallback);

fetch('coffee.jpg')
.then(response => {
  if (!response.ok) {
    throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);
  } else {
    return response.blob();
  }
})
.then(myBlob => {
  let objectURL = URL.createObjectURL(myBlob);
  let image = document.createElement('img');
  image.src = objectURL;
  document.body.appendChild(image);
})
.catch(e => {
  console.log('There has been a problem with your fetch operation: ' + e.message);
});

Running code in response to multiple promises fulfilling

Promise.all()의 기본적인 syntax

let a = fetch(url1);
let b = fetch(url2);
let c = fetch(url3);

Promise.all([a, b, c]).then(values => {
  ...
});

function fetchAndDecode(url, type) {
  return fetch(url).then(response => {
    if(!response.ok) {
      throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);
    } else {
      if(type === 'blob') {
        return response.blob();
      } else if(type === 'text') {
        return response.text();
      }
    }
  })
  .catch(e => {
    console.log(`There has been a problem with your fetch operation for resource "${url}": ` + e.message);
  });
}

let coffee = fetchAndDecode('coffee.jpg', 'blob');
let tea = fetchAndDecode('tea.jpg', 'blob');
let description = fetchAndDecode('description.txt', 'text');

Promise.all([coffee, tea, description]).then(values => {

});

console.log(values);
// Store each value returned from the promises in separate variables; create object URLs from the blobs
let objectURL1 = URL.createObjectURL(values[0]);
let objectURL2 = URL.createObjectURL(values[1]);
let descText = values[2];

// Display the images in <img> elements
let image1 = document.createElement('img');
let image2 = document.createElement('img');
image1.src = objectURL1;
image2.src = objectURL2;
document.body.appendChild(image1);
document.body.appendChild(image2);

// Display the text in a paragraph
let para = document.createElement('p');
para.textContent = descText;
document.body.appendChild(para);

Running some final code after a promise fulfills/rejects

myPromise
.then(response => {
  doSomething(response);
  runFinalCode();
})
.catch(e => {
  returnError(e);
  runFinalCode();
});

.finally() method

myPromise
.then(response => {
  doSomething(response);
})
.catch(e => {
  returnError(e);
})
.finally(() => {
  runFinalCode();
});

function fetchAndDecode(url, type) {
  return fetch(url).then(response => {
    if(!response.ok) {
      throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);
    } else {
      if(type === 'blob') {
        return response.blob();
      } else if(type === 'text') {
        return response.text();
      }
    }
  })
  .catch(e => {
    console.log(`There has been a problem with your fetch operation for resource "${url}": ` + e.message);
  })
  .finally(() => {
    console.log(`fetch attempt for "${url}" finished.`);
  });
}

Note: then()/catch()/finally() is the async equivalent to try/catch/finally in sync code.

Building your own custom promises

let timeoutPromise = new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
  setTimeout(() => {
    resolve('Success!');
  }, 2000);
});

timeoutPromise
.then((message) => {
   alert(message);
})

Understanding Promises

  1. Pending: You don’t know if you will get that phone
  2. Fulfilled: Mom is happy, she buys you a brand new phone
  3. Rejected: Mom is unhappy, she doesn’t buy you a phone

Creating a Promise

// ES5: Full example

var isMomHappy = true;

// Promise
var willIGetNewPhone = new Promise(
    function (resolve, reject) {
        if (isMomHappy) {
            var phone = {
                brand: 'Samsung',
                color: 'black'
            };
            resolve(phone); // fulfilled
        } else {
            var reason = new Error('mom is not happy');
            reject(reason); // reject
        }

    }
);

// 2nd promise
var showOff = function (phone) {
    var message = 'Hey friend, I have a new ' +
                phone.color + ' ' + phone.brand + ' phone';

    return Promise.resolve(message);
};

// call our promise
var askMom = function () {
    willIGetNewPhone
    .then(showOff) // chain it here
    .then(function (fulfilled) {
            console.log(fulfilled);
            // output: 'Hey friend, I have a new black Samsung phone.'
        })
        .catch(function (error) {
            // oops, mom don't buy it
            console.log(error.message);
            // output: 'mom is not happy'
        });
};

askMom();

//_ ES6: Full example_

const isMomHappy = true;

// Promise
const willIGetNewPhone = new Promise(
    (resolve, reject) => { // fat arrow
        if (isMomHappy) {
            const phone = {
                brand: 'Samsung',
                color: 'black'
            };
            resolve(phone);
        } else {
            const reason = new Error('mom is not happy');
            reject(reason);
        }

    }
);

// 2nd promise
const showOff = function (phone) {
    const message = 'Hey friend, I have a new ' +
                phone.color + ' ' + phone.brand + ' phone';
    return Promise.resolve(message);
};

// call our promise
const askMom = function () {
    willIGetNewPhone
        .then(showOff)
        .then(fulfilled => console.log(fulfilled)) // fat arrow
        .catch(error => console.log(error.message)); // fat arrow
};

askMom();

// ES7: Full example
const isMomHappy = true;

// Promise
const willIGetNewPhone = new Promise(
    (resolve, reject) => {
        if (isMomHappy) {
            const phone = {
                brand: 'Samsung',
                color: 'black'
            };
            resolve(phone);
        } else {
            const reason = new Error('mom is not happy');
            reject(reason);
        }

    }
);

// 2nd promise
async function showOff(phone) {
    return new Promise(
        (resolve, reject) => {
            var message = 'Hey friend, I have a new ' +
                phone.color + ' ' + phone.brand + ' phone';

            resolve(message);
        }
    );
};

// call our promise in ES7 async await style
async function askMom() {
    try {
        console.log('before asking Mom');

        let phone = await willIGetNewPhone;
        let message = await showOff(phone);

        console.log(message);
        console.log('after asking mom');
    }
    catch (error) {
        console.log(error.message);
    }
}

// async await it here too
(async () => {
    await askMom();
})();
