javascript-es6-breakable-promise

Javascript promise that can be rejected by anyone, anywhere.

One example usage is when you make successive async calls but you only need result from the latest call and want to prevent previous calls from overwriting stuff when they return.

Install

Just read the source code and copy/paste into your codebase. Seriously, it's only a few lines of code.

#Usage

var p1 = makeBreakablePromise(function(resolve, reject){
	setTimeout(function(){
		resolve("p1 resolved");
	}, 1000);
});

p1.break('broken p1');

#Important Make sure you keep a reference to the object returned by makeBreakablePromise since that's the breakable promise. Objects returned by then and catch don't have break function.
