faked-promise

Create a promise that can be resolved and rejected programatically outside of it

It basically extracts the resolve and reject callbacks so you can call them whenever you need. ⚠️ The promise can only be resolved once, it's still a regular Promise after all.

Tip

In modern environments, you can directly use Promise.withResolvers()

Installation

npm i faked-promise

Usage

faked-promise exports one single function that takes no arguments and returns an array with 3 elements:

• A real promise
• Its resolve callback
• Its reject callback

Meaning you can control exactly when the promise is resolved or rejected:

const fakePromise = require('faked-promise')

const [promise, resolve, reject] = fakePromise()
promise.then(() => {})
resolve('any value')
