cake-async
v0.1.0cake-async
Asynchronous cakefile tasks.
Simply add the async
keyword before a task
definition, and call the done
callback once finished.
To run async tasks, use invoke async 'task_name'
- there are no callbacks, instead invocations are queued and guaranteed to run in order within a task.
The function given to async.end()
will be called when all tasks have finished.
Without
task 'compile', ->
compileAsync files
task 'minify', ->
minifyAsync files
task 'build', ->
invoke 'compile'
invoke 'minify'
# might or might not work depending on your luck
With cake-async
async task 'compile', (o, done) ->
compileAsync files, done
async task 'minify', (o, done) ->
minifyAsync files, done
task 'build', ->
invoke async 'compile'
invoke async 'minify'
async.end => console.log 'done!'
Tests
npm install
npm install mocha -g # skip if you already have it
./mocha
npm i cake-async
