Variable: asAsync()

const asAsync: <Value>(iterable) => AsyncIterable<Awaited<Value>>

Defined in: core.d.ts:266

Returns an async iterable wrapper around iterable.

WARNING: When passing a concur iterable the returned async iterable will buffer the values yielded by the concur iterable if they are not read from the async iterable as quickly as they are yielded by the concur iterable. This happens because concur iterables are push-based while async iterables are pull-based, which creates backpressure.

Type Parameters

Value

Value

Parameters

iterable

Iterable<Value> | AsyncIterable<Value> | ConcurIterable<Value>

Returns

AsyncIterable<Awaited<Value>>

Example

import { asAsync } from 'lfi'

const asyncIterable = asAsync([`sloth`, `lazy`, `sleep`])

console.log(typeof asyncIterable[Symbol.asyncIterator])
//=> function

for await (const value of asyncIterable) {
  console.log(value)
}
//=> sloth
//=> lazy
//=> sleep
