About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.

The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.

When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.

To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

NPM version Build Status Coverage Status

Test whether all elements in a collection pass a test implemented by a predicate function.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/utils-async-every-by

Alternatively,

  • To load the package in a website via a script tag without installation and bundlers, use the ES Module available on the esm branch (see README).
  • If you are using Deno, visit the deno branch (see README for usage intructions).
  • For use in Observable, or in browser/node environments, use the Universal Module Definition (UMD) build available on the umd branch (see README).

The branches.md file summarizes the available branches and displays a diagram illustrating their relationships.

To view installation and usage instructions specific to each branch build, be sure to explicitly navigate to the respective README files on each branch, as linked to above.

Usage

var everyByAsync = require( '@stdlib/utils-async-every-by' );

everyByAsync( collection, [options,] predicate, done )

Tests whether all elements in a collection pass a test implemented by a predicate function.

function predicate( value, next ) {
    setTimeout( onTimeout, value );
    function onTimeout() {
        console.log( value );
        /* =>
            1000
            2500
            3000
        */

        next( null, true );
    }
}

function done( error, bool ) {
    if ( error ) {
        throw error;
    }
    console.log( bool );
    // => true
}

var arr = [ 3000, 2500, 1000 ];

everyByAsync( arr, predicate, done );

If a predicate function calls the next callback with a non-truthy test argument, the function stops processing any additional collection elements and returns false for the test result.

function predicate( value, index, next ) {
    setTimeout( onTimeout, value );
    function onTimeout() {
        if ( index === 1 ) {
            return next( null, false );
        }
        next( null, true );
    }
}

function done( error, bool ) {
    if ( error ) {
        throw error;
    }
    console.log( bool );
    // => false
}

var arr = [ 3000, 2500, 1000 ];

everyByAsync( arr, predicate, done );

The function accepts the following options:

  • limit: the maximum number of pending invocations at any one time. Default: infinity.
  • series: boolean indicating whether to sequentially invoke the predicate function for each collection element. If true, the function sets options.limit=1. Default: false.
  • thisArg: the execution context for predicate.

By default, all elements are processed concurrently, which means that the function does not guarantee completion order. To process each collection element sequentially, set the series option to true.

function predicate( value, next ) {
    setTimeout( onTimeout, value );
    function onTimeout() {
        console.log( value );
        /* =>
            3000
            2500
            1000
        */

        next( null, true );
    }
}

function done( error, bool ) {
    if ( error ) {
        throw error;
    }
    console.log( bool );
    // => true
}

var arr = [ 3000, 2500, 1000 ];

var opts = {
    'series': true
};

everyByAsync( arr, opts, predicate, done );

To limit the maximum number of pending function invocations, set the limit option.

function predicate( value, next ) {
    setTimeout( onTimeout, value );
    function onTimeout() {
        console.log( value );
        /* =>
            2500
            3000
            1000
        */

        next( null, true );
    }
}

function done( error, bool ) {
    if ( error ) {
        throw error;
    }
    console.log( bool );
    // => true
}

var arr = [ 3000, 2500, 1000 ];

var opts = {
    'limit': 2
};

everyByAsync( arr, opts, predicate, done );

To set the execution context of the predicate function, set the thisArg option.

function predicate( value, next ) {
    this.count += 1;
    setTimeout( onTimeout, value );
    function onTimeout() {
        next( null, true );
    }
}

var arr = [ 3000, 2500, 1000 ];

var context = {
    'count': 0
};

var opts = {
    'thisArg': context
};

everyByAsync( arr, opts, predicate, done );

function done( error, bool ) {
    if ( error ) {
        throw error;
    }
    console.log( bool );
    // => true

    console.log( context.count );
    // => 3
}

When invoked, the predicate function is provided a maximum of four arguments:

  • value: collection value.
  • index: collection index.
  • collection: the input collection.
  • next: a callback which should be called once the predicate function has finished processing a collection value.

The actual number of provided arguments depends on function length. If the predicate function accepts two arguments, the predicate function is provided value and next. If the predicate function accepts three arguments, the predicate function is provided value, index, and next. For every other predicate function signature, the predicate function is provided all four arguments.

function predicate( value, i, collection, next ) {
    console.log( 'collection: %s. %d: %d', collection.join( ',' ), i, value );
    /* =>
        collection: 3000,2500,1000. 0: 3000
        collection: 3000,2500,1000. 1: 2500
        collection: 3000,2500,1000. 2: 1000
    */

    setTimeout( onTimeout, value );
    function onTimeout() {
        console.log( value );
        /* =>
            1000
            2500
            3000
        */

        next( null, true );
    }
}

function done( error, bool ) {
    if ( error ) {
        throw error;
    }
    console.log( bool );
    // => true
}

var arr = [ 3000, 2500, 1000 ];

everyByAsync( arr, predicate, done );

everyByAsync.factory( [options,] predicate )

Returns a function which invokes a predicate function once for each element in a collection.

function predicate( value, next ) {
    setTimeout( onTimeout, value );
    function onTimeout() {
        console.log( value );
        next( null, true );
    }
}

function done( error, bool ) {
    if ( error ) {
        throw error;
    }
    console.log( bool );
}

var f = everyByAsync.factory( predicate );

var arr1 = [ 3000, 2500, 1000 ];

f( arr1, done );
/* e.g., =>
    1000
    2500
    3000
    true
*/

var arr2 = [ 300, 250, 100 ];

f( arr2, done );
/* e.g., =>
    100
    250
    300
    true
*/

The function accepts the same options as everyByAsync().

Notes

  • A collection may be either an Array, Typed Array, or an array-like Object (excluding strings and functions).
  • If a provided function calls the next callback with a truthy error argument, the function suspends execution and immediately calls the done callback for subsequent error handling.
  • The function does not support dynamic collection resizing.
  • The function does not skip undefined elements.
  • If provided an empty collection, the function calls the done callback with true as the test result.
  • Neither everyByAsync nor the function returned by the factory method guarantee asynchronous execution. To guarantee asynchrony, wrap the done callback in a function which either executes at the end of the current stack (e.g., nextTick) or during a subsequent turn of the event loop (e.g., setImmediate, setTimeout).

Examples

var resolve = require( 'path' ).resolve;
var readFile = require( '@stdlib/fs-read-file' );
var everyByAsync = require( '@stdlib/utils-async-every-by' );

var files = [
    resolve( __dirname, 'package.json' ),
    resolve( __dirname, 'README.md' )
];

function done( error, bool ) {
    if ( error ) {
        throw error;
    }
    if ( bool ) {
        console.log( 'Successfully read all files.' );
    } else {
        console.log( 'Was unable to read all files.' );
    }
}

function predicate( file, next ) {
    var opts = {
        'encoding': 'utf8'
    };
    readFile( file, opts, onFile );

    function onFile( error ) {
        if ( error ) {
            return next( null, false );
        }
        next( null, true );
    }
}

everyByAsync( files, predicate, done );
