How to structure nested Promises
Solution 1:
Use .then()
let doStuff = (resolve, reject) => {/* resolve() or reject() */};
let promise = new Promise(doStuff);
doSomethingUntilPromiseisDone(
promise
.then(value => fetchValue(url))
.then(value => value.blob())
.then(saveToCache)
)
.then(success => console.log("success!!"))
.catch(err => console.error(err))
Solution 2:
you can use generator
to flatten your nested promises (Bluebird.couroutine or Generators)
//Bluebird.couroutine
const generator = Promise.coroutine(function*() {
try {
const value = yield fetchValue(url);
const success = yield saveToCache(value);
console.log('success:', success);
} catch(e) {
console.error(err);
}
}));
generator();
