I'm trying to learn bluebird; I'm not controlling execution as I want to. (This bluebird question came from an async.js question at Node.js, async module, concurrency.)
Here's some code, plus what I expected to get and what I got instead.
Questions:
- Why does the #3 function start before both (1) the end of the #1 and #2 functions, and (2) the first error check function?
- What caused the error?
- What happened to "end of code"?
var Promise = require('bluebird')
function part1() {
console.log('part1 start')
return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
Promise.all(
[ part1a(1),
part1a(2)
])
.then(
function(err) {
if (err) console.log('part1 error after #1 and #2')
else console.log('part1 done with #1 and #2')
}
)
.then(part1a(3))
.then(
function(err) {
if (err) console.log('part1 error after #3')
else console.log('part1 done')
}
)
})
}
function part1a(i) {
console.log('part1a start #' + i)
return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
setTimeout(function() {
console.log('part1a done #' + i)
return resolve()
}, 100)
})
}
part1()
.then(
function(err) {
if (err) console.log('outermost code reported error' + err.message)
else console.log('end of code')
}
)
I expected
part1 start
part1a start #1
part1a start #2
part1a done #1 // these two could
part1a done #2 // reverse
part1 done with #1 and #2
part1a start #3
part1a done #3
part1 done
end of code
I got
part1 start
part1a start #1
part1a start #2
part1a start #3
part1a done #1
part1a done #2
part1a done #3
part1 error after #1 and #2
part1 done
Questions (repeated for reader convenience):
- Why does the #3 function start before both (1) the end of the #1 and #2 functions, and (2) the first error check function?
- What caused the error?
- What happened to "end of code"?
Thanks in advance.
