jsext.try

function _try<E = unknown, R = any, A extends any[] = any[]>(
    fn: (...args: A) => R,
    ...args: A
): [E, R];
function _try<E = unknown, R = any, A extends any[] = any[]>(
    fn: (...args: A) => Promise<R>,
    ...args: A
): Promise<[E, R]>;

Invokes a regular function or an async function and renders its result in an [err, res] tuple.

Example (regular function)

const [err, res] = _try(() => {
    // do something that may fail
});

Example (async function)

let [err, res] = await _try(async () => {
    return await axios.get("https://example.org");
});

if (err) {
    res = (err as any)["response"];
}

function _try<E = unknown, R = any>(job: Promise<R>): Promise<[E, R]>;

Resolves a promise and renders its result in an [err, res] tuple.

Example (promise)

let [err, res] = await _try(axios.get("https://example.org"));

if (err) {
    res = (err as any)["response"];
}

function _try<E = unknown, T = any, A extends any[] = any[], TReturn = any, TNext = unknown>(

    ...args: A
): Generator<[E, T], [E, TReturn], TNext>;
function _try<E = unknown, T = any, A extends any[] = any[], TReturn = any, TNext = unknown>(
    fn: (...args: A) => AsyncGenerator<T, TReturn, TNext>,
    ...args: A
): AsyncGenerator<[E, T], [E, TReturn], TNext>;

Invokes a generator function or an async generator function and renders its yield value and result in an [err, val] tuple.

Example (generator function)

const iter = _try(function* () {
    // do something that may fail
});

for (const [err, val] of iter) {
    if (err) {
        console.error("something went wrong:", err);
    } else {
        console.log("current value:", val);
    }
}

Example (async generator function)

    // do something that may fail
});

for await (const [err, val] of iter) {
    if (err) {
        console.error("something went wrong:", err);
    } else {
        console.log("current value:", val);
    }
}

function _try<E = unknown, T = any, TReturn = any, TNext = unknown>(
    gen: Generator<T, TReturn, TNext>
): Generator<[E, T], [E, TReturn], TNext>;
function _try<E = unknown, T = any, TReturn = any, TNext = unknown>(
    gen: AsyncGenerator<T, TReturn, TNext>
): AsyncGenerator<[E, T], [E, TReturn], TNext>;

Resolves a generator or an async generator and renders its yield value and result in an [err, val] tuple.

Example (generator)

const iter = Number.sequence(1, 10);

for (const [err, val] of _try(iter)) {
    if (err) {
        console.error("something went wrong:", err);
    } else {
        console.log("current value:", val);
    }
}

Example (async generator)

async function* gen() {
    // do something that may fail
};

for await (const [err, val] of _try(gen())) {
    if (err) {
        console.error("something went wrong:", err);
    } else {
        console.log("current value:", val);
    }
}

jsext.func

function func<T, R = any, A extends any[] = any[]>(
    fn: (this: T, defer: (cb: () => void) => void, ...args: A) => R
): (this: T, ...args: A) => R;

Inspired by Golang, creates a function that receives a defer keyword which can be used to carry deferred jobs that will be run after the main function is complete.

Multiple calls of the defer keyword is supported, and the callbacks are called in the LIFO order. Callbacks can be async functions if the main function is an async function or an async generator function, and all the running procedures will be awaited.

Example

const getVersion = func(async (defer) => {
    const file = await fs.open("./package.json", "r");
    defer(() => file.close());

    const content = await file.readFile("utf8");
    const pkg = JSON.parse(content);

    return pkg.version as string;
});

jsext.wrap

function wrap<T, Fn extends (this: T, ...args: any[]) => any>(
    fn: Fn,
    wrapper: (this: T, fn: Fn, ...args: Parameters<Fn>) => ReturnType<Fn>
): Fn

Wraps a function inside another function and returns a new function that copies the original functionā€™s name and other properties.

Example

function log(text: string) {
    console.log(text);
}

const show = wrap(log, function (fn, text) {
    return fn.call(this, new Date().toISOString() + " " + text);
});

console.log(show.name); // log
console.log(show.length); // 1
console.assert(show.toString() === log.toString());

jsext.throttle

function throttle<T, Fn extends (this: T, ...args: any[]) => any>(
    handler: Fn,
    duration: number
): Fn;
function throttle<T, Fn extends (this: T, ...args: any[]) => any>(handler: Fn, options: {
    duration: number;
    /**
     * Use the throttle strategy `for` the given key, this will keep the result in a global
     * cache, binding new `handler` function for the same key will result in the same result
     * as the previous, unless the duration has passed. This mechanism guarantees that both
     * creating the throttled function in function scopes and overwriting the handler are
     * possible.
     */
    for?: any;
    /**
     * When turned on, respond with the last cache (if available) immediately, even if it has
     * expired, and update the cache in the background.
     */
    noWait?: boolean;
}): Fn;

Creates a throttled function that will only be run once in a certain amount of time.

If a subsequent call happens within the duration (in milliseconds), the previous result will be returned and the handler function will not be invoked.

Example

const fn = throttle((input: string) => input, 1_000);
console.log(fn("foo")); // foo
console.log(fn("bar")); // foo

await Promise.sleep(1_000);
console.log(fn("bar")); // bar

Example (with key)

const out1 = await throttle(() => Promise.resolve("foo"), { duration: 1_000, for: "example" })();
console.log(out1); // foo

const out2 = await throttle(() => Promise.resolve("bar"), { duration: 1_000, for: "example" })();
console.log(out2); // foo

await Promise.sleep(1_000);
const out3 = await throttle(() => Promise.resolve("bar"), { duration: 1_000, for: "example" })();
console.log(out3); // bar

jsext.queue

function queue<T>(handler: (data: T) => Promise<void>, bufferSize?: number): Queue<T>

Processes data sequentially by the given handler function and prevents concurrency conflicts, it returns a Queue instance that we can push data into.

bufferSize is the maximum capacity of the underlying channel, once reached, the push operation will block until there is new space available. By default, this option is not set and use a non-buffered channel instead.

Example

const list: string[] = [];
const q = queue(async (str: string) => {
    await Promise.resolve(null);
    list.push(str);
});

q.onError(err => {
    console.error(err);
});

await q.push("foo");
await q.push("foo");

console.log(list.length);
q.close();
// output:
// 2

jsext.mixins

function mixins<T extends Constructor<any>, M extends any[]>(
    base: T,
    ...mixins: { [X in keyof M]: Constructor<M[X]> }
): T & Constructor<UnionToIntersection<FlatArray<M, 1>>>;
function mixins<T extends Constructor<any>, M extends any[]>(
    base: T,
    ...mixins: M
): T & Constructor<UnionToIntersection<FlatArray<M, 1>>>;

Returns an extended class that combines all mixin methods.

This function does not mutates the base class but create a pivot class instead.

Example

class Log {
    log(text: string) {
        console.log(text);
    }
}

class View {
    display(data: Record<string, any>[]) {
        console.table(data);
    }
}

class Controller extends mixins(View, Log) {
    constructor(readonly topic: string) {
        super();
    }
}

const ctrl = new Controller("foo");
ctrl.log("something is happening");
ctrl.display([{ topic: ctrl.topic, content: "something is happening" }]);

console.assert(isSubclassOf(Controller, View));
console.assert(!isSubclassOf(Controller, Log));

jsext.isSubclassOf

function isSubclassOf<A, B>(ctor1: Constructor<A>, ctor2: Constructor<B>): boolean;

Checks if a class is a subclass of another class.

Example

class Moment extends Date {}

console.assert(isSubclassOf(Moment, Date));
console.assert(isSubclassOf(Moment, Object)); // all classes are subclasses of Object

jsext.read

function read<I extends AsyncIterable<any>>(iterable: I): I;
function read(es: EventSource, options?: { event?: string; }): AsyncIterable<string>;
function read<T extends Uint8Array | string>(ws: WebSocket): AsyncIterable<T>;
function read<T>(target: EventTarget, eventMap?: {
    message?: string;
    error?: string;
    close?: string;
}): AsyncIterable<T>;
function read<T>(target: NodeJS.EventEmitter, eventMap?: {
    data?: string;
    error?: string;
    close?: string;
}): AsyncIterable<T>;

Wraps a source as an AsyncIterable object that can be used in the for await...of... loop for reading streaming data.

Example (EventSource)

// listen to the `onmessage`
const sse = new EventSource("/sse/message");

for await (const msg of read(sse)) {
    console.log("receive message:", msg);
}

// listen to a specific event
const channel = new EventSource("/sse/broadcast");

for await (const msg of read(channel, { event: "broadcast" })) {
    console.log("receive message:", msg);
}

Example (WebSocket)

const ws = new WebSocket("/ws");

for await (const data of read(ws)) {
    if (typeof data === "string") {
        console.log("receive text message:", data);
    } else {
        console.log("receive binary data:", data);
    }
}

Example (EventTarget)

for await (const msg of read(self)) {
    console.log("receive message from the parent window:", msg);
}

Example (EventEmitter)

for await (const msg of read(process)) {
    console.log("receive message from the parent process:", msg);
}

jsext.readAll

function readAll<T>(iterable: AsyncIterable<T>): Promise<T[]>;

Reads all values from the iterable object at once.

Example

const file = fs.createReadStream("./package.json");
const chunks = await readAll(file);

jsext.chan

function chan<T>(capacity?: number): Channel<T>;

Inspired by Golang, cerates a Channel that can be used to transfer data across routines.

If capacity is not set, a non-buffered channel will be created. For a non-buffered channel, the sender and receiver must be present at the same time (theoretically), otherwise, the channel will block (non-IO aspect).

If capacity is set, a buffered channel will be created. For a buffered channel, data will be queued in the buffer first and then consumed by the receiver in FIFO order. Once the buffer size reaches the capacity limit, no more data will be sent unless there is new space available.

It is possible to set the capacity to Infinity to allow the channel to never block and behave like a message queue.

Unlike EventEmitter or EventTarget, Channel guarantees the data will always be delivered, even if there is no receiver at the moment.

Also, unlike Golang, await channel.pop() does not prevent the program from exiting.

Channels can be used to send and receive streaming data between main thread and worker threads wrapped by parallel(), but once used that way, channel.close() must be explicitly called in order to release the channel for garbage collection.

Example (non-buffered)

const channel = chan<number>();

(async () => {
    await channel.push(123);
})();

const num = await channel.pop();
console.log(num); // 123

Example (buffered)

const channel = chan<number>(3);

await channel.push(123);
await channel.push(456);
await channel.push(789);

const num1 = await channel.pop();
const num2 = await channel.pop();
const num3 = await channel.pop();

console.log(num1); // 123
console.log(num2); // 456
console.log(num3); // 789

Example (iterable)

const channel = chan<number>();

(async () => {
    for (const num of Number.sequence(1, 5)) {
        await channel.push(num);
    }

    channel.close();
})();

for await (const num of channel) {
    console.log(num);
}
// output:
// 1
// 2
// 3
// 4
// 5

jsext.parallel

function parallel<M extends { [x: string]: any; }>(
    mod: string | (() => Promise<M>)
): ThreadedFunctions<M>;

Wraps a module so its functions will be run in worker threads.

In Node.js and Bun, the module can be either an ES module or a CommonJS module, node_modules and built-in modules are also supported.

In browsers and Deno, the module can only be an ES module.

Data are cloned and transferred between threads via Structured Clone Algorithm.

Apart from the standard data types supported by the algorithm, Channel can also be used to transfer data between threads. To do so, just passed a channel instance to the threaded function. But be aware, channel can only be used as a parameter, return a channel from the threaded function is not allowed. Once passed, the data can only be transferred into and out-from the function.

The difference between using a channel and a generator function for streaming processing is, for a generator function, next(value) is coupled with a yield value, the process is blocked between next calls, channel doesnā€™t have this limit, we can use it to stream all the data into the function before processing and receiving any result.

The threaded function also supports ArrayBuffers as transferable objects. If an array buffer is presented as an argument or the direct property of an argument (assume itā€™s a plain object), or the array buffer is the return value or the direct property of the return value (assume itā€™s a plain object), it automatically becomes a transferrable object and will be transferred to the other thread instead of being cloned. This strategy allows us to easily compose objects like Request and Response instances into plain objects and pass them between threads without overhead.

NOTE: if the current module is already in a worker thread, use this function wonā€™t create another worker thread.

NOTE: cloning and transferring data between the main thread and worker threads are very heavy and slow, worker threads are only intended to run CPU-intensive tasks or divide tasks among multiple threads, they have no advantage when performing IO-intensive tasks such as handling HTTP requests, always prefer cluster module for that kind of purpose.

NOTE: for error instances, only the following types are guaranteed to be sent and received properly between threads.

  • Error
  • EvalError
  • RangeError
  • ReferenceError
  • SyntaxError
  • TypeError
  • URIError
  • AggregateError (as arguments, return values, thrown values, or shallow object properties)
  • Exception (as arguments, return values, thrown values, or shallow object properties)
  • DOMException (as arguments, return values, thrown values, or shallow object properties)

In order to handle errors properly between threads, throw well-known error types or use Exception (or DOMException) with error names in the threaded function.

Example (regular or async function)

const mod = parallel(() => import("./examples/worker.mjs"));
console.log(await mod.greet("World")); // Hi, World

Example (generator or async generator function)

const mod = parallel(() => import("./examples/worker.mjs"));

for await (const word of mod.sequence(["foo", "bar"])) {
    console.log(word);
}
// output:
// foo
// bar

Example (use channel)

const mod = parallel(() => import("./examples/worker.mjs"));

const channel = chan<{ value: number; done: boolean; }>();
const length = mod.twoTimesValues(channel);

for (const value of Number.sequence(0, 9)) {
    await channel.push({ value, done: value === 9 });
}

const results = (await readAll(channel)).map(item => item.value);
console.log(results);      // [0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18]
console.log(await length); // 10

Example (use transferrable)

const mod = parallel(() => import("./examples/worker.mjs"));

const arr = Uint8Array.from([0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]);
const length = await mod.transfer(arr.buffer);

console.log(length);     // 10
console.log(arr.length); // 0

NOTE: if the application is to be bundled, use the following syntax to link the module instead, it will prevent the bundler from including the file and rewriting the path.

const mod = parallel<typeof import("./examples/worker.mjs")>("./examples/worker.mjs");

namespace parallel {
    /**
     * The maximum number of workers allowed to exist at the same time. If not set, the program
     * by default uses CPU core numbers as the limit.
     */
    export var maxWorkers: number | undefined;

    /**
     * In browsers, by default, the program loads the worker entry directly from GitHub,
     * which could be slow due to poor internet connection, we can copy the entry file
     * `bundle/worker.mjs` to a local path of our website and set this option to that path
     * so that it can be loaded locally.
     * 
     * Or, if the code is bundled, the program won't be able to automatically locate the entry
     * file in the file system, in such case, we can also copy the entry file
     * (`bundle/worker.mjs` for Bun, Deno and the browser, `bundle/worker-node.mjs` for Node.js)
     * to a local directory and supply this option instead.
     */
    export var workerEntry: string | undefined;
}

jsext.run

function run<R, A extends any[] = any[]>(script: string, args?: A, options?: {
    /** If not set, invoke the default function, otherwise invoke the specified function. */
    fn?: string;
    /** Automatically abort the task when timeout (in milliseconds). */
    timeout?: number;
    /**
     * Instead of dropping the worker after the task has completed, keep it alive so that it can
     * be reused by other tasks.
     */
    keepAlive?: boolean;
    /**
     * Choose whether to use `worker_threads` or `child_process` for running the script.
     * The default setting is `worker_threads`.
     * 
     * In browsers and Deno, this option is ignored and will always use the web worker.
     * 
     * @deprecated Always prefer `worker_threads` over `child_process` since it consumes
     * less system resources. `child_process` support may be removed in the future once
     * considered thoroughly.
     */
    adapter?: "worker_threads" | "child_process";
}): Promise<{
    workerId: number;
    /** Retrieves the return value of the function being called. */
    result(): Promise<R>;
    /** Iterates the yield value if the function being called returns a generator. */
    iterate(): AsyncIterable<R>;
    /** Terminates the worker thread and aborts the task. */
    abort(reason?: Error | null): Promise<void>;
}>;

Runs the given script in a worker thread and abort the task at any time.

This function is similar to parallel(), many features applicable to parallel() are also applicable to run(), except the following:

  1. The script can only be a filename, and is relative to the current working directory (or the current URL) if not absolute.
  2. Only one task is allow to run at a time for one worker thread, set run.maxWorkers to allow more tasks to be run at the same time if needed.
  3. By default, the worker thread is dropped after the task settles, set keepAlive option in order to reused it.

Example (result)

const job1 = await run<string, [string]>("examples/worker.mjs", ["World"]);
console.log(await job1.result()); // Hello, World

Example (iterate)

const job2 = await run<string, [string[]]>("examples/worker.mjs", [["foo", "bar"]], {
    fn: "sequence",
});
for await (const word of job2.iterate()) {
    console.log(word);
}
// output:
// foo
// bar

Example (abort)

const job3 = await run<string, [string]>("examples/worker.mjs", ["foobar"], {
    fn: "takeTooLong",
});
await job3.abort();
const [err, res] = await _try(job3.result());
console.assert(err === null);
console.assert(res === undefined);

namespace run {
    /**
     * The maximum number of workers allowed to exist at the same time. If not set, use the same
     * setting as {@link parallel.maxWorkers}.
     */
    var maxWorkers: number | undefined;
}

jsext.example

function example<T, A extends any[] = any[]>(
    fn: (this: T, console: Console, ...args: A) => void | Promise<void>,
    options?: {
        /** Suppress logging to the terminal and only check the output. */
        suppress?: boolean;
    }
): (this: T, ...args: A) => Promise<void>;

Inspired by Golangā€™s Example as Test design, creates a function that carries example code with // output: comments, when the returned function is called, it will automatically check if the actual output matches the one declared in the comment.

The example function receives a customized console object which will be used to log outputs instead of using the built-in console.

NOTE: this function is used to simplify the process of writing tests, it does not work in Bun and browsers currently, because Bun hasnā€™t implement the Console constructor and removes comments during runtime, and the function relies on Node.js built-in modules.

Example

it("should output as expected", example(console => {
    console.log("Hello, World!");
    // output:
    // Hello, World!
}));

jsext.deprecate

function deprecate<T, Fn extends (this: T, ...args: any[]) => any>(
    fn: Fn,
    tip?: string,
    once?: boolean
): Fn;

Marks a function as deprecated and returns a wrapped function.

When the wrapped function is called, a deprecation warning will be emitted to the stdout.

NOTE: the original function must have a name.

Example

const sum = deprecate(function sum(a: number, b: number) {
    return a + b;
}, "use `a + b` instead");
console.log(sum(1, 2));
// output:
// DeprecationWarning: sum() is deprecated, use `a + b` instead (at <anonymous>:4:13)
// 3

function deprecate(target: string, forFn: Function, tip?: string, once?: boolean): void;

Emits a deprecation warning for the target, usually a parameter, an option, or the functionā€™s name, etc.

Example

const pow = function pow(a: number, b: number) {
    deprecate("pow()", pow, "use `a ** b` instead");
    return a ** b;
};
console.log(pow(2, 3));
// output:
// DeprecationWarning: pow() is deprecated, use `a ** b` instead (at <anonymous>:5:13)
// 8
