## Features

* Easy interface for composing async operations
* Executes a function in a separate goroutine
* Error Handling using functions (also executed in a separate goroutine)
* Support for Generics (requires Go v1.18+)
* Promises are resolved **lazily**, upon a first call to `Await`, `AwaitOr`, `Then`, `OnSuccess` or `onFailure`
* Support for `promise.All` and `promise.Race` (equivalent to the JavaScript [Promise](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Promise) object)

## Quickstart

```go
package main

import (
"log"
"net/http"

"github.com/felix-kaestner/promise"
)

func main() {
// Create a new promise.
// In this example the http request is executed in a separate goroutine
p := promise.New(func() (*http.Response, error) {
return http.Get("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1")
})

// Handle successful and failed operations in a separate goroutine
p.Then(func(res *http.Response) {
log.Printf("Status: %s", res.Status)
}, func(err error) {
log.Fatalln(err)
})

// Handle only successful operations in a separate goroutine
p.onSuccess(func(res *http.Response) {
log.Printf("Status: %s", res.Status)
})

// Handle only failed operations in a separate goroutine
p.onFailure(func(err error) {
log.Fatalln(err)
})

// Await the promise.
// This blocks execution until the promise is resolved.
res, err := p.Await()

// Provide a default value (calls Await() internally).
res = p.AwaitOr(nil)

// Use channels to select the awaited promise
select {
case <-p.Done():
res, err = p.Await() // returns immediately since the promise is already resolved
case <-time.After(5000 * time.Millisecond):
fmt.Println("Timeout")
}

// Take multiple promises and wait for all of them to be finished
p1 := promise.New(func() (*http.Response, error) {
return http.Get("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1")
})
p2 := promise.New(func() (*http.Response, error) {
return http.Get("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/2")
})
res, err := promise.All(p1, p2).Await()

// Take multiple promises and wait until the first of them to is finished
p1 := promise.New(func() (*http.Response, error) {
return http.Get("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/3")
})
p2 := promise.New(func() (*http.Response, error) {
return http.Get("https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/4")
})
res, err := promise.Race(p1, p2).Await()

}
```
