### Run an array of functions in parallel

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### install
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
npm install run-parallel
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### parallel(tasks, [callback])
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Run the `tasks` array of functions in parallel, without waiting until the previous
|
||
|
|
function has completed. If any of the functions pass an error to its callback, the main
|
||
|
|
`callback` is immediately called with the value of the error. Once the `tasks` have
|
||
|
|
completed, the results are passed to the final `callback` as an array.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It is also possible to use an object instead of an array. Each property will be run as a
|
||
|
|
function and the results will be passed to the final `callback` as an object instead of
|
||
|
|
an array. This can be a more readable way of handling the results.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
##### arguments
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- `tasks` - An array or object containing functions to run. Each function is passed a
|
||
|
|
`callback(err, result)` which it must call on completion with an error `err` (which can
|
||
|
|
be `null`) and an optional `result` value.
|
||
|
|
- `callback(err, results)` - An optional callback to run once all the functions have
|
||
|
|
completed. This function gets a results array (or object) containing all the result
|
||
|
|
arguments passed to the task callbacks.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
##### example
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
var parallel = require('run-parallel')
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
parallel([
|
||
|
|
function (callback) {
|
||
|
|
setTimeout(function () {
|
||
|
|
callback(null, 'one')
|
||
|
|
}, 200)
|
||
|
|
},
|
||
|
|
function (callback) {
|
||
|
|
setTimeout(function () {
|
||
|
|
callback(null, 'two')
|
||
|
|
}, 100)
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
],
|
||
|
|
// optional callback
|
||
|
|
function (err, results) {
|
||
|
|
// the results array will equal ['one','two'] even though
|
||
|
|
// the second function had a shorter timeout.
|
||
|
|
})
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This module is basically equavalent to
|
||
|
|
[`async.parallel`](https://github.com/caolan/async#paralleltasks-callback), but it's
|
||
|
|
handy to just have the one function you need instead of the kitchen sink. Modularity!
|
||
|
|
Especially handy if you're serving to the browser and need to reduce your javascript
|
||
|
|
bundle size.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Works great in the browser with [browserify](http://browserify.org/)!
