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)
  })

下面是我比较喜欢的连续运行任务的方式。

function runSerial() {
    var that = this;
    // task1 is a function that returns a promise (and immediately starts executing)
    // task2 is a function that returns a promise (and immediately starts executing)
    return Promise.resolve()
        .then(function() {
            return that.task1();
        })
        .then(function() {
            return that.task2();
        })
        .then(function() {
            console.log(" ---- done ----");
        });
}

有更多任务的情况会怎样呢?10 ?

function runSerial(tasks) {
  var result = Promise.resolve();
  tasks.forEach(task => {
    result = result.then(() => task());
  });
  return result;
}

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;
}

如果你愿意，你可以用reduce来做出一个连续的承诺，例如:

[2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9].reduce((promises, page) => {
    return promises.then((page) => {
        console.log(page);
        return Promise.resolve(page+1);
    });
  }, Promise.resolve(1));

它总是按顺序工作。

我使用以下代码扩展Promise对象。它处理承诺的拒绝并返回一个结果数组

Code

/*
    Runs tasks in sequence and resolves a promise upon finish

    tasks: an array of functions that return a promise upon call.
    parameters: an array of arrays corresponding to the parameters to be passed on each function call.
    context: Object to use as context to call each function. (The 'this' keyword that may be used inside the function definition)
*/
Promise.sequence = function(tasks, parameters = [], context = null) {
    return new Promise((resolve, reject)=>{

        var nextTask = tasks.splice(0,1)[0].apply(context, parameters[0]); //Dequeue and call the first task
        var output = new Array(tasks.length + 1);
        var errorFlag = false;

        tasks.forEach((task, index) => {
            nextTask = nextTask.then(r => {
                output[index] = r;
                return task.apply(context, parameters[index+1]);
            }, e=>{
                output[index] = e;
                errorFlag = true;
                return task.apply(context, parameters[index+1]);
            });
        });

        // Last task
        nextTask.then(r=>{
            output[output.length - 1] = r;
            if (errorFlag) reject(output); else resolve(output);
        })
        .catch(e=>{
            output[output.length - 1] = e;
            reject(output);
        });
    });
};

例子

function functionThatReturnsAPromise(n) {
    return new Promise((resolve, reject)=>{
        //Emulating real life delays, like a web request
        setTimeout(()=>{
            resolve(n);
        }, 1000);
    });
}

var arrayOfArguments = [['a'],['b'],['c'],['d']];
var arrayOfFunctions = (new Array(4)).fill(functionThatReturnsAPromise);


Promise.sequence(arrayOfFunctions, arrayOfArguments)
.then(console.log)
.catch(console.error);

你可以使用这个函数来获取promiseFactories List:

function executeSequentially(promiseFactories) {
    var result = Promise.resolve();
    promiseFactories.forEach(function (promiseFactory) {
        result = result.then(promiseFactory);
    });
    return result;
}

Promise Factory是一个简单的函数，返回一个Promise:

function myPromiseFactory() {
    return somethingThatCreatesAPromise();
}

它之所以有效，是因为承诺工厂直到被要求才创建承诺。它的工作方式与then函数相同——事实上，它是一样的!

你根本不想在一组承诺上操作。根据Promise规范，一旦创建了Promise，它就开始执行。所以你真正想要的是一系列的承诺工厂…
