Posted to Promise Chains with Node.js over 1 year ago

@sunnyfrancis - see the last example. It shows how to do exactly what you're trying to do.

Hey @costea_90, that sounds interesting - would you mind posting a codepen/jsfiddle demonstrating your method?

Excellent @nchudleigh, I'm glad they were helpful!

Following up on this, I loved the keys in ST3, but I found myself missing them in other applications so I ended up using Keyboard Maestro to set Vim shortcuts (and more) on browsers, email, IRC, etc. No doubt there's a Linux program that can do this too.

Thanks @steveinatorx, I'm glad the chain pattern was helpful!

@sally-yang-jing-ou, haha it's ok - I got eight emails for your comment, but only one comment appears in the thread so I think you discovered a Coderwall bug :)

As for returning a promise, it doesn't seem like _.bind is what's expecting the promise, but each of the .then() functions likely is.

If you're using Q you could do something like this: http://pastebin.com/G2iGrxmt

If you're using a different promise library, the deferred calls would change, but the principle would be the same.

Hello @sally-yang-jing-ou

Could you give a little more detail on what you're trying to accomplish? Do you need to assemble a promise chain within the for loop, or return a promise afterward, or maybe resolve one afterward?

@ricobl, I didn't know about vi mode in bash! That's pretty cool. I might use that in combination with my new control-key movement since I should learn more vim shortcuts.

For now I ended up setting more shortcuts with Keyboard Maestro so I can toggle between split terminals and tabs, and scroll up and down in the buffer.

Hey @sandesh27

It seems like you're on the right track there. You could create a new var deferred = Q.defer(); before calling User.findOne, then you could call deferred.resolve() or deferred.reject() inside the error and success conditions. Just make sure to use the deferred.promise in your flow.

@veganoo - I'd look into the meta tag which is being set on that page: <meta content='IE=EmulateIE7' http-equiv='X-UA-Compatible'/>. If that tag works in IE11 (which it appears to) then it would render without support for the :before pseudo-element necessary to fill in the stars.

@veganoo - strange... it works in IE8+ for me. Did you work out what's going on in IE11?

Posted to Promise Chains with Node.js over 1 year ago

That's a cool way to do it, @futbolpal - I assume that deferred would be resolved within the_async_function?

Thanks @fkiller - I'm glad to help!

@fredylg What does work in IE8? ;)

Posted to CSS does Math over 1 year ago

@paranoida Thanks. Updated with compatibility details!

Posted to Promise Chains with Node.js over 1 year ago

@n1k0 You may be right. I'll leave that as an exercise to the reader ;)

Posted to Promise Chains with Node.js over 1 year ago

@n1k0 Great point! That's much easier to read and avoids the need to create additional closures. I updated the examples with this.
