## Purpose
|
|
|
|
To avoid running expensive IO or computation concurrently.
|
|
|
|
If the result of IO or computation is requested while an identical request
|
|
is already in progress, wait until the first one completes and provide its
|
|
result to every routine that requested it.
|
|
|
|
Asynchrony is guaranteed.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Provide:
|
|
|
|
1. a named key for the computation or resource,
|
|
2. a callback to handle the result
|
|
3. an implementation which calls back with the result
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
var batch = Batch();
|
|
|
|
var read = function (path, cb) {
|
|
batch(path, cb, function (done) {
|
|
console.log("reading %s", path);
|
|
fs.readFile(path, 'utf8', done);
|
|
});
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
read('./pewpew.txt', function (err, data) {
|
|
if (err) { return void console.error(err); }
|
|
console.log(data);
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
read('./pewpew.txt', function (err, data) {
|
|
if (err) { return void console.error(err); }
|
|
console.log(data);
