const aPromiseWillBeResolvedLater = new OpenPromise();
aPromiseWillBeResolvedLater.then(val => console.log(val));
aPromiseWillBeResolvedLater.resolve({x: 1});
// logs `{x: 1}`
```
#### [Smart Map](https://thalesrc.github.io/js-utils/modules/_smart_map_.html)
Like WeakMap but can also store values using primitive keys
See: [WeakMap](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/WeakMap)
```typescript
import { SmartMap } from "@thalesrc/js-utils";
const aMap = new SmartMap();
aMap.set("foo", "foo");
aMap.set(1, "thales rocks");
console.log(aMap.size) // 2
aMap.set({}, "thales rocks again");
console.log(aMap.size) // 2
const anObject = {};
aMap.set(anObject, "thales rocks again and again");
console.log(aMap.size) // 3
console.log(aMap.get(anObject)) // "thales rocks again and again"
```
#### [Unique Id](https://thalesrc.github.io/js-utils/modules/_unique-id_.html)
Starts a new counter for every unique prefix and if a prefix is given, returns the id by prefixing it, otherwise returns the id as number
```typescript
import { uniqueId } from "@thalesrc/js-utils";
uniqueId(); // 0
uniqueId(); // 1
uniqueId("some-str"); // "some-str-0";
uniqueId("some-str"); // "some-str-1";
uniqueId(); // 3
```
## Static/Prototype Methods
You may use any of these methods by adding them to the constructors or prototypes to native objects in main file.
Prototype Example:
```typescript
// main.ts
import "@thalesrc/js-utils/array/proto/compact";
// somewhere else
const arr = [undefined, "", false, 0, 1, "1", null];
const compacted = arr.compact(); // [1, "1"];
```
Static Example:
```typescript
// main.ts
import "@thalesrc/js-utils/promise/static/timeout";
// somewhere else
Promise.timeout(1000)
.then(() => console.log("will be logged after a second"));
```
