p-lazy
Create a lazy promise that defers execution until it's awaited or when
.then()
or.catch()
is called
Useful if you're doing some heavy operations and would like to only do it when the promise is actually used.
Install
$ npm install p-lazy
Usage
const PLazy = require('p-lazy');
const lazyPromise = new PLazy(resolve => {
someHeavyOperation(resolve);
});
// `someHeavyOperation` is not yet called
(async () => {
await doSomethingFun;
// `someHeavyOperation` is called
console.log(await lazyPromise);
})();
