考虑下面以串行/顺序方式读取文件数组的代码。readFiles返回一个承诺,只有在顺序读取所有文件后才会解析这个承诺。

var readFile = function(file) {
  ... // Returns a promise.
};

var readFiles = function(files) {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    var readSequential = function(index) {
      if (index >= files.length) {
        resolve();
      } else {
        readFile(files[index]).then(function() {
          readSequential(index + 1);
        }).catch(reject);
      }
    };

    readSequential(0); // Start with the first file!
  });
};

上面的代码可以工作,但是我不喜欢为了使事情按顺序发生而进行递归。是否有一种更简单的方法可以重写这段代码,这样我就不必使用奇怪的readSequential函数了?

最初我尝试使用Promise。但是这会导致所有的readFile调用并发发生,这不是我想要的:

var readFiles = function(files) {
  return Promise.all(files.map(function(file) {
    return readFile(file);
  }));
};

当前回答

这是对如何以更通用的方式处理承诺序列的扩展,支持基于spex的动态/无限序列。序列实现:

var $q = require("q");
var spex = require('spex')($q);

var files = []; // any dynamic source of files;

var readFile = function (file) {
    // returns a promise;
};

function source(index) {
    if (index < files.length) {
        return readFile(files[index]);
    }
}

function dest(index, data) {
    // data = resolved data from readFile;
}

spex.sequence(source, dest)
    .then(function (data) {
        // finished the sequence;
    })
    .catch(function (error) {
        // error;
    });

这种解决方案不仅适用于任何大小的序列,而且还可以轻松地向其添加数据节流和负载平衡。

其他回答

我在Promise对象上创建了这个简单的方法:

创建并添加承诺。sequence方法添加到Promise对象

Promise.sequence = function (chain) {
    var results = [];
    var entries = chain;
    if (entries.entries) entries = entries.entries();
    return new Promise(function (yes, no) {
        var next = function () {
            var entry = entries.next();
            if(entry.done) yes(results);
            else {
                results.push(entry.value[1]().then(next, function() { no(results); } ));
            }
        };
        next();
    });
};

用法:

var todo = [];

todo.push(firstPromise);
if (someCriterium) todo.push(optionalPromise);
todo.push(lastPromise);

// Invoking them
Promise.sequence(todo)
    .then(function(results) {}, function(results) {});

Promise对象的这个扩展最好的一点是,它与Promise的风格一致。的承诺。一切和承诺。序列以同样的方式调用,但具有不同的语义。

谨慎

连续运行承诺通常不是使用承诺的好方法。通常使用Promise会更好。所有这些,并让浏览器尽可能快地运行代码。然而,它也有一些实际的用例——例如在使用javascript编写移动应用程序时。

如果其他人在执行CRUD操作时需要一种有保证的严格顺序的方法来解析promise,您也可以使用以下代码作为基础。

只要你在调用每个函数之前添加'return',描述一个Promise,并使用这个例子作为基础,下一个.then()函数调用将在前一个函数完成后consistent启动:

getRidOfOlderShoutsPromise = () => {
    return readShoutsPromise('BEFORE')
    .then(() => {
        return deleteOlderShoutsPromise();
    })
    .then(() => {
        return readShoutsPromise('AFTER')
    })
    .catch(err => console.log(err.message));
}

deleteOlderShoutsPromise = () => {
    return new Promise ( (resolve, reject) => {
        console.log("in deleteOlderShouts");
        let d = new Date();
        let TwoMinuteAgo = d - 1000 * 90 ;
        All_Shouts.deleteMany({ dateTime: {$lt: TwoMinuteAgo}}, function(err) {
            if (err) reject();
            console.log("DELETED OLDs at "+d);
            resolve();        
        });
    });
}

readShoutsPromise = (tex) => {
    return new Promise( (resolve, reject) => {
        console.log("in readShoutsPromise -"+tex);
        All_Shouts
        .find({})
        .sort([['dateTime', 'ascending']])
        .exec(function (err, data){
            if (err) reject();
            let d = new Date();
            console.log("shouts "+tex+" delete PROMISE = "+data.length +"; date ="+d);
            resolve(data);
        });    
    });
}

要在ES6中简单地做到这一点:

function(files) {
  // Create a new empty promise (don't do that with real people ;)
  var sequence = Promise.resolve();

  // Loop over each file, and add on a promise to the
  // end of the 'sequence' promise.
  files.forEach(file => {

    // Chain one computation onto the sequence
    sequence = 
      sequence
        .then(() => performComputation(file))
        .then(result => doSomething(result)); 
        // Resolves for each file, one at a time.

  })

  // This will resolve after the entire chain is resolved
  return sequence;
}

我真的很喜欢@joelnet的回答,但对我来说,这种编码风格有点难以消化,所以我花了几天时间试图弄清楚如何以更可读的方式表达相同的解决方案,这就是我的想法,只是使用了不同的语法和一些注释。

// first take your work
const urls = ['/url1', '/url2', '/url3', '/url4']

// next convert each item to a function that returns a promise
const functions = urls.map((url) => {
  // For every url we return a new function
  return () => {
    return new Promise((resolve) => {
      // random wait in milliseconds
      const randomWait = parseInt((Math.random() * 1000),10)
      console.log('waiting to resolve in ms', randomWait)
      setTimeout(()=>resolve({randomWait, url}),randomWait)
    })
  }
})


const promiseReduce = (acc, next) => {
  // we wait for the accumulator to resolve it's promise
  return acc.then((accResult) => {
    // and then we return a new promise that will become
    // the new value for the accumulator
    return next().then((nextResult) => {
      // that eventually will resolve to a new array containing
      // the value of the two promises
      return accResult.concat(nextResult)
    })
  })
};
// the accumulator will always be a promise that resolves to an array
const accumulator = Promise.resolve([])

// we call reduce with the reduce function and the accumulator initial value
functions.reduce(promiseReduce, accumulator)
  .then((result) => {
    // let's display the final value here
    console.log('=== The final result ===')
    console.log(result)
  })

我能想到的最好的解决办法就是蓝鸟承诺。你可以执行Promise.resolve(files).each(fs.readFileAsync);这保证了承诺是按顺序被解决的。
