# Q

Q is a lightweight promise implementation in Ruby.

**DON'T USE ME!** This project doesn't follow any promises spec. It's all wrong.

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'q-defer', require: 'q'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install q-defer

## Usage

Defer a single block:

```ruby
require "open-uri"

Q.defer do |defer|
Thread.new do
response = open("http://www.example.com")

if response.status[0] == "200"
defer.resolve(response)
else
defer.reject([response.status, response])
end
end
end.then do |result|
puts "ok"
end.fail do |err, result|
puts "status code: #{err[0]}"
end.always do
puts "All finished!"
end
```

Defer multiple blocks:

```ruby
def defer_open(url)
Q.defer do |defer|
Thread.new do
response = open("http://www.example.com")

if response.status[0] == "200"
defer.resolve(response)
else
defer.reject([response.status, response])
end
end
end
end

Q.when([
defer_open("http://www.example.com"),
defer_open("http://www.google.com")
]).then do |results|
puts "All successful!"
end.fail do |err, results|
puts "Error: #{err}"
end.always do |results|
puts "All successful or one failure."
end
```
