About stdlib...
We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.
The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.
When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.
To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!
If a function does not return an error, invoke a callback with the function result; otherwise, invoke a callback with a value
y
.
import trycatchAsync from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/utils-async-try-catch@esm/index.mjs';
If a function x
does not return an error, invokes a done
callback with the function result; otherwise, invokes a done
callback with a value y
.
import randu from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/random-base-randu@esm/index.mjs';
function x( clbk ) {
setTimeout( onTimeout, 0 );
function onTimeout() {
if ( randu() > 0.5 ) {
return clbk( null, 1.0 );
}
clbk( new Error( 'oops' ) );
}
}
function done( error, result ) {
if ( error ) {
console.log( error.message );
}
console.log( result );
}
trycatchAsync( x, -1.0, done );
The function x
is provided a single argument:
clbk
: callback to invoke upon function completion
The callback accepts two arguments:
error
: error objectresult
: function result
The done
callback is invoked upon function completion and is provided two arguments:
error
: error objectresult
: either the result ofx
or the provided valuey
If the function x
does not return a truthy error
argument, the error
argument provided to the done
callback is null
. If x
does return a truthy error
argument, the done
callback is invoked with both the error
and the provided value y
.
- Execution is not guaranteed to be asynchronous. To guarantee asynchrony, wrap the
done
callback in a function which either executes at the end of the current stack (e.g.,nextTick
) or during a subsequent turn of the event loop (e.g.,setImmediate
,setTimeout
).
