Co
co is a JavaScript generator control flow library and non-blocking workflow engine. It manages asynchronous logic by using generators and promises to simulate a synchronous coding style.
The project transforms generator functions into standard functions that return promises, ensuring compatibility with non-generator interfaces. It also functions as a promise-based asynchronous orchestrator that executes multiple operations concurrently through the recursive resolution of nested promise collections.
The library provides high-level primitives for asynchronous flow control and non-blocking workflow management in Node.js and the browser. This includes mechanisms for concurrent operation execution and generator-to-promise conversion.
Features
- Generator-to-Promise Wrappers - Transforms generator functions into standard functions that return promises for compatibility with non-generator interfaces.
- Asynchronous Control Flow Libraries - Provides a comprehensive framework for managing non-blocking asynchronous logic using generators and promises.
- Linear Asynchronous Syntax - Allows managing non-blocking operations using linear syntax instead of nested callback structures.
- Asynchronous Flow Control - Implements techniques for managing the execution order of asynchronous operations using generators.
- Generator Execution Loops - Provides a generator-based loop that drives asynchronous execution by resolving promises and resuming the function.
- Parallel Promise Coordination - Coordinates multiple asynchronous operations concurrently, waiting for all promises in a collection to resolve.
- Generator-Based Flow Control - Uses generator functions and yield statements to manage asynchronous execution sequences.
- Non-Blocking Execution - Implements non-blocking execution patterns to manage complex sequences of asynchronous events without freezing the thread.
- Non-Blocking Event Loops - Implements architectural patterns that leverage the event loop to manage concurrent operations without blocking the main thread.
- Concurrent Task Execution - Executes multiple asynchronous operations simultaneously to improve throughput and minimize wait time.
- Recursive Promise Resolution - Processes nested collections of promises recursively to enable complex parallel task execution.
- Recursive Promise Distribution - Resolves nested arrays or objects of promises recursively to ensure complete parallel task execution.
- Promise-Based State Resolution - Integrates asynchronous promise resolution directly into the internal state management of the generator.
- Flow Control - Generator-based flow control for Node.js.
- Promise Utilities - Generator-based control flow for asynchronous code.
