I am looking for a way, with Node v7.6 or above, to get a Bluebird Promise (or any non-native promise) when an async function is called.
In the same way I can do:
global.Promise = require('Bluebird'); // Or Q/When
var getResolvedPromise = () => Promise.resolve('value');
getResolvedPromise
.tap(...) // Bluebird method
.then(...);
See: May I use global.Promise=require("bluebird")
I want to be able to do something like:
global.Promise = require('Bluebird'); // Or Q/When
var getResolvedAsyncAwaitPromise = async () => 'value';
getResolvedAsyncAwaitPromise()
.tap(...) // Error ! Native Promises does not have `.tap(...)`
.then(...);
I know I can use at any moment something like:
Bluebird.resolve(getResolvedAsyncAwaitPromise())
.tap(...);
But I was curious if there would be a way to change the default Promise returned by AsyncFunction
. The constructor seems enclosed:
Note that AsyncFunction is not a global object. It could be obtained by evaluating the following code.
Object.getPrototypeOf(async function(){}).constructor
MDN reference on AsyncFunction
If there is no way to change the AsyncFunction
's Promise constructor, I would like to know the reasons of this locking.
Thank you !
