kuji

Asynchronous Control Flow library for Node.

Browsers are not supported yet, it will be added later.

Control Flow

kuji.inline

kuji.inline runs tasks in-line:

var kuji = require('kuji');

kuji.inline([
  function (next) {
    next();
  },
  function (next) {
    next();
  },
  function (next) {
    next();
  },
  function (next) {
    next();
  }
]);

kuji.parallel

kuji.parallel runs tasks in parallel and goes to the final callback when all tasks finished:

var kuji = require('kuji');

kuji.parallel([
  function (next) {
    next();
  },
  function (next) {
    next();
  },
  function (next) {
    next();
  },
  function (next) {
    next();
  }
], function () {
  // This will be executed when all will be finished
});

kuji.graph

kuji.graph permits you to easily run tasks graphs:

You can see that D will be executed once its dependencies (A and B) are finished, permitting you to be sure that the data you need from these tasks will be available.

var kuji = require('kuji'),
    dependsOn = kuji._dependsOn;

kuji.graph({
  a: function (next) {
    next()
  },
  b: function (next) {
    next();
  },
  c: function (next) {  
    next();
  },
  d: dependsOn(['a', 'b'], function (next) {
    next();
  }),
  e: dependsOn(['d', 'c'], function (next) {
    next();
  })
}, function () {
  // This will be executed at the end of your graph
});

For the moment you need to use a closure to share data between tasks, but this will be patched in the next few days.

• Error handling through next()
• Passing values through next()
• Benchmark
• Perfomance optimization
