Description
Right now, Promise.using
accepts only Disposer
instances but not promises that resolve to disposers.
For example in this code:
createTmp = function() {
return tmp.fileAsync()
.disposer( function( tmp ) {
cleanup = tmp[2];
cleanup();
} );
};
createTmpDelayed = function() {
return Promise.delay(1000)
.then( function() {
return createTmp();
} );
};
passing createTmpDelayed() to Promise.using has a different outcome than passing createTmp().
This is not expected, as usually the bluebird API allows passing promises resolving to instances of a class, when the function expects a specific class. For example, .bind
allows to pass promises that will be resolved to the object that will be binded.
Also, there is no way currently to write createTmpDelayed in such a way so as to transform the promise into a disposer.
createTmpDelayed = function() {
return Promise.delay(1000)
.then( function() {
return createTmp();
} ).dispose( function(disposer) {
disposer.dispose(); // no such documented function
} );
};
This makes it impossible to make generic functions that return Promises that resolve to disposers.
