## Installation

add it to your project using `npm install web-threads --save` or `yarn add web-threads`

## Usage

### Simple function with arguments

```js

import { execute } from 'web-threads'

let func = (value) => {

    return value * value

}

let params = {

    fn: func.toString(),

    args: [2]

} 

execute(params)

    .then(console.log)

    .catch(console.error)

```

### Function with context

```js

import { execute } from 'web-threads'

function Func(value){

    this.value = value

}

Func.prototype.foo = function(){

    return this.value * this.value

};

var instance = new Func(2)

let params = {

    fn: instance.foo,

    context: instance

} 

execute(params)

    .then(console.log)

    .catch(console.error)

```

### Function with context and arguments

```js

import { execute } from 'web-threads'

function Func(value){

    this.value = value

}

Func.prototype.foo = function(otherValue){

    return this.value * otherValue

};

var instance = new Func(2)

let params = {

    fn: instance.foo,

    context: instance,

    args: [4]

} 

execute(params)

    .then(console.log)

    .catch(console.error)

```

### ES6 class call function with arguments

```js

import { execute } from 'web-threads'

class someClass {

    constructor(val){

        this.val = val

    }

    foo(some){

        return this.val * some

    }

}

var instance = new someClass(2)

let params = {

    fn: instance.foo,

    context: instance,

    args: [4]

} 

execute(params)

    .then(console.log)

    .catch(console.error)
