基本的Javascript承诺实施尝试
为了更好地理解Javascript中承诺的工作方式,我决定试一试,并自己编写基本实现。
基本上我想实现承担对象(我称之为代码中的Aaa),它将函数作为参数。 这个函数可以调用resolve来resolve
promise,或者拒绝reject
它。 基本的实现和用法如下。 不知道第二个参数是否可以按照诺言规格接受,但这就是我迄今为止所获得的结果。
Aaa=function(f,pause) {
console.log("ggg");
var t=this;
this.f=f;
this.thens=[];
this.resolve=function(g) {
for(var i=0;i<t.thens.length;i++)
{
// try/catch to be used later for dealing with exceptions
try
{
t.thens[i].f(g);
t.thens[i].resolve();
}
catch(ex)
{}
}
};
// to be implemented later
this.reject=function(g) {};
this.then=function(resolve,reject) {
// i'm passing true for pause argument as we dont need to execute promise code just yet
var nextPromise=new Aaa(resolve,true);
this.thens.push(nextPromise);
return nextPromise;
}
if(!pause)
this.f(this.resolve,this.reject);
}
var aaa=new Aaa(function(resolve,reject) {
console.log("aaa");
setTimeout(function() {
console.log("fff");
resolve("good");
},2000);
console.log("bbb");
});
所以现在可以创建,调用和解决承诺。 每then
方法将返回新的AAA(无极),因此可以将这些链接。 现在,下面的代码使用上面创建的承诺和链条then
回调。 then
每个都会返回新的承诺,在这种情况下,它似乎工作得很好:
aaa.then(function(res) {
console.log("ccc");
console.log(res);
})
.then(function(res) {
console.log("ddd");
console.log(res);
},function(rej) {
console.log("eee");
console.log(rej);
});
我得到的输出是:
ggg
aaa
bbb
ggg
ggg
fff
ccc
good
ddd
undefined
但问题是,当的一个then
调用返回一个承诺:
aaa.then(function(res) {
console.log("ccc");
console.log(res);
// here we return the promise manually. then next then call where "ddd" is output should not be called UNTIL this promise is resolved. How to do that?
return new Aaa(function(resolve,reject) {
console.log("iii");
setTimeout(function() {
console.log("kkk");
resolve("good2");
// reject("bad");
},2000);
console.log("jjj");
}).then(function (res) {
console.log("lll");
console.log(res);
});
})
.then(function(res) {
console.log("ddd");
console.log(res);
},function(rej) {
console.log("eee");
console.log(rej);
});
输出是:
ggg
aaa
bbb
ggg
ggg
fff
ccc
good
ggg
iii
jjj
ggg
ddd
undefined
kkk
lll
good2
然后,输出ddd
的调用不应被调用,直到我们刚添加的返回的promise被解析。
如何最好地实施?
有几种情况你不在这里处理。 最好的选择就是从承诺作为一个状态机开始:
var PENDING = 0;
var FULFILLED = 1;
var REJECTED = 2;
function Promise() {
// store state which can be PENDING, FULFILLED or REJECTED
var state = PENDING;
// store value once FULFILLED or REJECTED
var value = null;
// store sucess & failure handlers
var handlers = [];
}
现在让我们定义一个简单的助手来使用我们的其余实现:
// a function that returns `then` if `value` is a promise, otherwise `null`
function getThen(value) {
if (result && (typeof result === 'object' || typeof result === 'function')) {
var then = value.then;
if (typeof then === 'function') {
return then;
}
}
return null;
}
接下来,我们需要考虑可能发生的每个转换:
var PENDING = 0;
var FULFILLED = 1;
var REJECTED = 2;
function Promise() {
// store state which can be PENDING, FULFILLED or REJECTED
var state = PENDING;
// store value once FULFILLED or REJECTED
var value = null;
// store sucess & failure handlers
var handlers = [];
function resolve(result) {
try {
var then = getThen(result);
if (then) {
doResolve(then.bind(result), resolve, reject)
return
}
state = FULFILLED;
value = result;
} catch (e) {
reject(e);
}
}
function reject(error) {
state = REJECTED;
value = error;
}
}
注意resolve
如何能够接受一个承诺作为它的论据,但是一个承诺永远不会被另一个承诺所履行。 所以我们必须处理这个特殊情况。
还要注意,一个承诺只能完成/拒绝一次。 我们还有一个问题,即第三方Promise可能会行事不端,我们应该防范我们的代码。 出于这个原因,我不只是在resolve
调用result.then(resolve, reject)
。 相反,我将它分解为一个单独的函数:
/**
* Take a potentially misbehaving resolver function and make sure
* onFulfilled and onRejected are only called once.
*
* Makes no guarantees about asynchrony.
*/
function doResolve(fn, onFulfilled, onRejected) {
var done = false;
try {
fn(function (value) {
if (done) return
done = true
onFulfilled(value)
}, function (reason) {
if (done) return
done = true
onRejected(reason)
})
} catch (ex) {
if (done) return
done = true
onRejected(ex)
}
}
所以现在我们有一个完整的状态机,但没有办法观察或触发状态的变化。 让我们开始添加一种方法来通过传入解析器函数来触发状态更改。
function Promise(fn) {
if (typeof this !== 'object')
throw new TypeError('Promises must be constructed via new');
if (typeof fn !== 'function')
throw new TypeError('fn must be a function');
// store state which can be PENDING, FULFILLED or REJECTED
var state = PENDING;
// store value once FULFILLED or REJECTED
var value = null;
// store sucess & failure handlers
var handlers = [];
function resolve(result) {
try {
var then = getThen(result);
if (then) {
doResolve(then.bind(result), resolve, reject)
return
}
state = FULFILLED;
value = result;
} catch (e) {
reject(e);
}
}
function reject(error) {
state = REJECTED;
value = error;
}
doResolve(fn, resolve, reject);
}
正如您所看到的,我们重新使用doResolve
是因为我们有另一个doResolve
信任的解析器。 fn
可能会多次调用resolve
或reject
,并且可能会引发错误。 我们需要处理所有这些情况(这就是doResolve
所做的)。
我们现在有完成的状态机,但我们没有公开关于它处于什么状态的任何信息。让我们尝试添加一个.done(onFulfilled, onRejected)
方法,就像.done(onFulfilled, onRejected)
一样.then
除了它不返回Promise和不处理由onFulfilled
和onRejected
引发的错误。
var PENDING = 0;
var FULFILLED = 1;
var REJECTED = 2;
function Promise(fn) {
if (typeof this !== 'object')
throw new TypeError('Promises must be constructed via new');
if (typeof fn !== 'function')
throw new TypeError('fn must be a function');
// store state which can be PENDING, FULFILLED or REJECTED
var state = PENDING;
// store value once FULFILLED or REJECTED
var value = null;
// store sucess & failure handlers
var handlers = [];
function resolve(result) {
try {
var then = getThen(result);
if (then) {
doResolve(then.bind(result), resolve, reject)
return
}
state = FULFILLED;
value = result;
handlers.forEach(handle);
handlers = null;
} catch (e) {
reject(e);
}
}
function reject(error) {
state = REJECTED;
value = error;
handlers.forEach(handle);
handlers = null;
}
function handle(handler) {
if (state === PENDING) {
handlers.push(handler);
} else {
if (state === FULFILLED && typeof handler.onFulfilled === 'function') {
handler.onFulfilled(value);
}
if (state === REJECTED && typeof handler.onRejected === 'function') {
handler.onRejected(value);
}
}
}
this.done = function (onFulfilled, onRejected) {
setTimeout(function () { // ensure we are always asynchronous
handle({
onFulfilled: onFulfilled,
onRejected: onRejected
});
}, 0);
}
doResolve(fn, resolve, reject);
}
请注意,我们必须如何处理在承诺完成/拒绝之前和之后调用.done
的情况。
我们几乎有一个完整的承诺实现,但是,正如您在构建自己的实现时已经注意到的那样,我们需要一个返回Promise的.then
方法。
我们可以从.done
构建这个easilly:
this.then = function (onFulfilled, onRejected) {
var self = this;
return new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
return self.done(function (result) {
if (typeof onFulfilled === 'function') {
try {
return resolve(onFulfilled(result));
} catch (ex) {
return reject(ex);
}
} else {
return resolve(result);
}
}, function (error) {
if (typeof onRejected === 'function') {
try {
return resolve(onRejected(error));
} catch (ex) {
return reject(ex);
}
} else {
return reject(error);
}
});
});
}
请注意,我们如何获得您现在挣扎着的东西,因为resolve
接受Promise并等待解决问题。
NB我没有测试过这个Promise实现(尽管我所知道的最好是正确的)。 您应该测试您针对Promises / A +测试套件(https://github.com/promises-aplus/promises-tests)构建的任何实现,并且还可以找到Promises / A +规范(https://github.com/promises -aplus / promises-spec)可用于确定算法的任何特定部分的正确行为。 作为最终的资源,承诺是Promise规范的最小实现。
(对于完整的Promise实现,向下滚动)。
您的代码中存在一些问题
这是几个问题,但我认为你的代码中的主要错误是,你接受了给予then
方法的参数,并将它作为参数传递给新的promise:
this.then=function(resolve,reject) {
var nextPromise=new Aaa(resolve,true);
// ...
尽管两个参数都是回调函数,但它们具有不同的签名,并且服务于完全不同的目的:
then
方法的(第一个)参数是一个回调函数,它只会在基础promise被解析并且被解析的值作为参数传递给它时异步执行。 你也可以在你的代码中看到不同之处,你将参数作为f属性存储在构造函数中。 你有这两个:
t.thens[i].f(g);
...其中g是解决的值,但也是这样的:
this.f(this.resolve,this.reject);
...参数是功能的地方。 当你创建nextPromise时,你实际上会先用这两个参数调用f,然后再用g参数调用f。
从头开始遵守承诺/ A +标准
我们可以通过遵循Promises / A +规范中的要求来构建自己的Promise实现:
2.1承诺状态
只允许两种状态转换:从挂起到履行,从挂起到拒绝。 没有其他转换是可能的,一旦转换完成,承诺值(或拒绝原因)不应改变。
这是一个简单的实现,将遵守上述限制。 注释引用上述规范中的编号要求:
function MyPromise(executor) {
this.state = 'pending';
this.value = undefined;
executor(this.resolve.bind(this), this.reject.bind(this));
}
// 2.1.1.1: provide only two ways to transition
MyPromise.prototype.resolve = function (value) {
if (this.state !== 'pending') return; // 2.1.2.1, 2.1.3.1: cannot transition anymore
this.state = 'fulfilled'; // 2.1.1.1: can transition
this.value = value; // 2.1.2.2: must have a value
}
MyPromise.prototype.reject = function (reason) {
if (this.state !== 'pending') return; // 2.1.2.1, 2.1.3.1: cannot transition anymore
this.state = 'rejected'; // 2.1.1.1: can transition
this.value = reason; // 2.1.3.2: must have a reason
}
当然,这并不提供then
方法,这是Promises的关键:
2.2 then
方法
这是规范的核心。 上面的代码可被扩展以暴露then
方法,它返回一个承诺,并且提供适当的异步执行then
回调,只有一次,提供多个then
调用,车削例外排斥,...等。
因此,下面的代码添加了then
方法,但也是一个单独定义的broadcast
函数,因为它必须在任何状态变化时被调用:这不仅包括then
方法的效果(承诺被添加到列表中),还包括resolve
和reject
方法(状态和价值变化)。
function MyPromise(executor) {
this.state = 'pending';
this.value = undefined;
// A list of "clients" that need to be notified when a state
// change event occurs. These event-consumers are the promises
// that are returned by the calls to the `then` method.
this.consumers = [];
executor(this.resolve.bind(this), this.reject.bind(this));
}
// 2.1.1.1: provide only two ways to transition
MyPromise.prototype.resolve = function (value) {
if (this.state !== 'pending') return; // 2.1.2.1, 2.1.3.1: cannot transition anymore
this.state = 'fulfilled'; // 2.1.1.1: can transition
this.value = value; // 2.1.2.2: must have a value
this.broadcast();
}
MyPromise.prototype.reject = function (reason) {
if (this.state !== 'pending') return; // 2.1.2.1, 2.1.3.1: cannot transition anymore
this.state = 'rejected'; // 2.1.1.1: can transition
this.value = reason; // 2.1.3.2: must have a reason
this.broadcast();
}
// A promise’s then method accepts two arguments:
MyPromise.prototype.then = function(onFulfilled, onRejected) {
var consumer = new MyPromise(function () {});
// 2.2.1.1 ignore onFulfilled if not a function
consumer.onFulfilled = typeof onFulfilled === 'function' ? onFulfilled : null;
// 2.2.1.2 ignore onRejected if not a function
consumer.onRejected = typeof onRejected === 'function' ? onRejected : null;
// 2.2.6.1, 2.2.6.2: .then() may be called multiple times on the same promise
this.consumers.push(consumer);
// It might be that the promise was already resolved...
this.broadcast();
// 2.2.7: .then() must return a promise
return consumer;
};
MyPromise.prototype.broadcast = function() {
var promise = this;
// 2.2.2.1, 2.2.2.2, 2.2.3.1, 2.2.3.2 called after promise is resolved
if (this.state === 'pending') return;
// 2.2.6.1, 2.2.6.2 all respective callbacks must execute
var callbackName = this.state == 'fulfilled' ? 'onFulfilled' : 'onRejected';
var resolver = this.state == 'fulfilled' ? 'resolve' : 'reject';
// 2.2.4 onFulfilled/onRejected must be called asynchronously
setTimeout(function() {
// 2.2.6.1, 2.2.6.2 traverse in order, 2.2.2.3, 2.2.3.3 called only once
promise.consumers.splice(0).forEach(function(consumer) {
try {
var callback = consumer[callbackName];
// 2.2.1.1, 2.2.1.2 ignore callback if not a function, else
// 2.2.5 call callback as plain function without context
if (callback) {
// TODO: 2.2.7.1. For now we simply fulfill the promise:
consumer.resolve(callback(promise.value));
} else {
// 2.2.7.3 resolve in same way as current promise
consumer[resolver](promise.value);
}
} catch (e) {
// 2.2.7.2
consumer.reject(e);
};
})
});
};
这几乎涵盖了所有内容,除了在TODO:
评论中,所谓的Promise Resolution Procedure必须被称为:
2.3承诺解决程序
这是治疗那些thenables(或者甚至承诺)值的过程是不同的:而不是返回原样的值,程序将执行then
该值的方法和异步满足与来自接收到的值的承诺then
回调。 在规范中没有提到它,但是这不仅在then
方法中执行,而且在主要承诺以这样的值解决时执行也很有趣。
所以现有的resolve
方法应该用这个“Promise Resolution Procedure”来代替,它将会调用原来的resolve
方法。 原来的一个可以称为“履行”,以表明它将永远解决履行的承诺:
function MyPromise(executor) {
this.state = 'pending';
this.value = undefined;
// A list of "clients" that need to be notified when a state
// change event occurs. These event-consumers are the promises
// that are returned by the calls to the `then` method.
this.consumers = [];
executor(this.resolve.bind(this), this.reject.bind(this));
}
// 2.1.1.1: provide only two ways to transition
MyPromise.prototype.fulfill = function (value) {
if (this.state !== 'pending') return; // 2.1.2.1, 2.1.3.1: cannot transition anymore
this.state = 'fulfilled'; // 2.1.1.1: can transition
this.value = value; // 2.1.2.2: must have a value
this.broadcast();
}
MyPromise.prototype.reject = function (reason) {
if (this.state !== 'pending') return; // 2.1.2.1, 2.1.3.1: cannot transition anymore
this.state = 'rejected'; // 2.1.1.1: can transition
this.value = reason; // 2.1.3.2: must have a reason
this.broadcast();
}
// A promise’s then method accepts two arguments:
MyPromise.prototype.then = function(onFulfilled, onRejected) {
var consumer = new MyPromise(function () {});
// 2.2.1.1 ignore onFulfilled if not a function
consumer.onFulfilled = typeof onFulfilled === 'function' ? onFulfilled : null;
// 2.2.1.2 ignore onRejected if not a function
consumer.onRejected = typeof onRejected === 'function' ? onRejected : null;
// 2.2.6.1, 2.2.6.2: .then() may be called multiple times on the same promise
this.consumers.push(consumer);
// It might be that the promise was already resolved...
this.broadcast();
// 2.2.7: .then() must return a promise
return consumer;
};
MyPromise.prototype.broadcast = function() {
var promise = this;
// 2.2.2.1, 2.2.2.2, 2.2.3.1, 2.2.3.2 called after promise is resolved
if (this.state === 'pending') return;
// 2.2.6.1, 2.2.6.2 all respective callbacks must execute
var callbackName = this.state == 'fulfilled' ? 'onFulfilled' : 'onRejected';
var resolver = this.state == 'fulfilled' ? 'resolve' : 'reject';
// 2.2.4 onFulfilled/onRejected must be called asynchronously
setTimeout(function() {
// 2.2.6.1, 2.2.6.2 traverse in order, 2.2.2.3, 2.2.3.3 called only once
promise.consumers.splice(0).forEach(function(consumer) {
try {
var callback = consumer[callbackName];
// 2.2.1.1, 2.2.1.2 ignore callback if not a function, else
// 2.2.5 call callback as plain function without context
if (callback) {
// 2.2.7.1. execute the Promise Resolution Procedure:
consumer.resolve(callback(promise.value));
} else {
// 2.2.7.3 resolve in same way as current promise
consumer[resolver](promise.value);
}
} catch (e) {
// 2.2.7.2
consumer.reject(e);
};
})
});
};
// The Promise Resolution Procedure: will treat values that are thenables/promises
// and will eventually call either fulfill or reject/throw.
MyPromise.prototype.resolve = function(x) {
var wasCalled, then;
// 2.3.1
if (this === x) {
throw new TypeError('Circular reference: promise value is promise itself');
}
// 2.3.2
if (x instanceof MyPromise) {
// 2.3.2.1, 2.3.2.2, 2.3.2.3
x.then(this.resolve.bind(this), this.reject.bind(this));
} else if (x === Object(x)) { // 2.3.3
try {
// 2.3.3.1
then = x.then;
if (typeof then === 'function') {
// 2.3.3.3
then.call(x, function resolve(y) {
// 2.3.3.3.3 don't allow multiple calls
if (wasCalled) return;
wasCalled = true;
// 2.3.3.3.1 recurse
this.resolve(y);
}.bind(this), function reject(reasonY) {
// 2.3.3.3.3 don't allow multiple calls
if (wasCalled) return;
wasCalled = true;
// 2.3.3.3.2
this.reject(reasonY);
}.bind(this));
} else {
// 2.3.3.4
this.fulfill(x);
}
} catch(e) {
// 2.3.3.3.4.1 ignore if call was made
if (wasCalled) return;
// 2.3.3.2 or 2.3.3.3.4.2
this.reject(e);
}
} else {
// 2.3.4
this.fulfill(x);
}
}
现在这符合Promises / A +标准,至少它通过了测试套件。 然而,Promise对象暴露了太多的方法和属性:
一个承诺物体then
只
上面构建的构造函数创建的东西更像是一个Deferred对象,即暴露了resolve
和reject
方法。 更糟的是, status
和value
属性是可写的。 所以,将它视为一个不安全的Deferred对象的构造函数更合乎逻辑,并且创建一个单独的Promise构造函数,该构造函数基于此构造函数,但只公开需要的:一个then
方法和一个构造函数回调,可以访问resolve
和reject
。
延迟对象可以在没有构造函数回调参数的情况下执行,并通过promise
属性提供对纯诺言对象的访问:
function Deferred() {
this.state = 'pending';
this.value = undefined;
this.consumers = [];
this.promise = Object.create(MyPromise.prototype, {
then: { value: this.then.bind(this) }
});
}
// 2.1.1.1: provide only two ways to transition
Deferred.prototype.fulfill = function (value) {
if (this.state !== 'pending') return; // 2.1.2.1, 2.1.3.1: cannot transition anymore
this.state = 'fulfilled'; // 2.1.1.1: can transition
this.value = value; // 2.1.2.2: must have a value
this.broadcast();
}
Deferred.prototype.reject = function (reason) {
if (this.state !== 'pending') return; // 2.1.2.1, 2.1.3.1: cannot transition anymore
this.state = 'rejected'; // 2.1.1.1: can transition
this.value = reason; // 2.1.3.2: must have a reason
this.broadcast();
}
// A promise’s then method accepts two arguments:
Deferred.prototype.then = function(onFulfilled, onRejected) {
var consumer = new Deferred();
// 2.2.1.1 ignore onFulfilled if not a function
consumer.onFulfilled = typeof onFulfilled === 'function' ? onFulfilled : null;
// 2.2.1.2 ignore onRejected if not a function
consumer.onRejected = typeof onRejected === 'function' ? onRejected : null;
// 2.2.6.1, 2.2.6.2: .then() may be called multiple times on the same promise
this.consumers.push(consumer);
// It might be that the promise was already resolved...
this.broadcast();
// 2.2.7: .then() must return a promise
return consumer;
};
Deferred.prototype.broadcast = function() {
var promise = this;
// 2.2.2.1, 2.2.2.2, 2.2.3.1, 2.2.3.2 called after promise is resolved
if (this.state === 'pending') return;
// 2.2.6.1, 2.2.6.2 all respective callbacks must execute
var callbackName = this.state == 'fulfilled' ? 'onFulfilled' : 'onRejected';
var resolver = this.state == 'fulfilled' ? 'resolve' : 'reject';
// 2.2.4 onFulfilled/onRejected must be called asynchronously
setTimeout(function() {

if (callback) {
// 2.2.7.1. execute the Promise Resolution Procedure:
consumer.resolve(callback(promise.value));
} else {
// 2.2.7.3 resolve in same way as current promise
consumer[resolver](promise.value);
}
} catch (e) {
// 2.2.7.2
consumer.reject(e);
};
})
});
};
// The Promise Resolution Procedure: will treat values that are thenables/promises
// and will eventually call either fulfill or reject/throw.
Deferred.prototype.resolve = function(x) {
var wasCalled, then;
// 2.3.1
if (this.promise === x) {
throw new TypeError('Circular reference: promise value is promise itself');
}
// 2.3.2
if (x instanceof MyPromise) {
// 2.3.2.1, 2.3.2.2, 2.3.2.3
x.then(this.resolve.bind(this), this.reject.bind(this));
} else if (x === Object(x)) { // 2.3.3
try {
// 2.3.3.1
then = x.then;
if (typeof then === 'function') {
// 2.3.3.3
then.call(x, function resolve(y) {
// 2.3.3.3.3 don't allow multiple calls
if (wasCalled) return;
wasCalled = true;
// 2.3.3.3.1 recurse
this.resolve(y);
}.bind(this), function reject(reasonY) {
// 2.3.3.3.3 don't allow multiple calls
if (wasCalled) return;
wasCalled = true;
// 2.3.3.3.2
this.reject(reasonY);
}.bind(this));
} else {
// 2.3.3.4
this.fulfill(x);
}
} catch(e) {
// 2.3.3.3.4.1 ignore if call was made
if (wasCalled) return;
// 2.3.3.2 or 2.3.3.3.4.2
this.reject(e);
}
} else {
// 2.3.4
this.fulfill(x);
}
}
function MyPromise(executor) {
// A Promise is just a wrapper around a Deferred, exposing only the `then`
// method, while `resolve` and `reject` are available in the constructor callback
var df = new Deferred();
// Provide access to the `resolve` and `reject` methods via the callback
executor(df.resolve.bind(df), df.reject.bind(df));
return df.promise;
}
这个代码有几种可能的优化方式,例如使Deferred方法使用私有函数,并将相似的代码合并成较短的代码块,但现在它很清楚地显示了每个需求的覆盖范围。
快乐的编码。
这一切似乎都非常复杂。 我认为有一个非常简单的递归解决方案。 为了简洁起见,我将省略拒绝,但除了您停止链之外,它与解决方案几乎相同。
var MyPromise = function(callback) {
this.callbacks = [];
callback(this.resolve.bind(this));
}
MyPromise.prototype.resolve = function(data) {
var callback = this.callbacks.pop();
var result = callback(data);
if (!result) return;
if (result instanceof MyPromise) {
var resolve = this.resolve.bind(this);
return result.then(function(d) {
return resolve(d);
});
}
return this.resolve(result);
}
MyPromise.prototype.then = function(callback) {
this.callbacks.unshift(callback);
return this;
}
