# Extendable Promise

A promise that can be delayed (extended) via repeated calls to `waitUntil`.

"Extendable" here refers to the ability to extend the duration of the promise, not inheritance/subtypes/etc.
The name and API are modelled after the
[`ExtendableEvent`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/ExtendableEvent)
interface that was introduced to the web part of the Service Worker API. As
such, it provides a `waitUntil` method that takes a promise as argument that
extends settlement of the parent promise until all promises that were
added in this way have settled. You can think about it like
`Promise.allSettled`, except you can add promises to the list after the fact. Example:

```js
const p = new ExtendablePromise(timeout(200).then(() => 1));
await timeout(100)
p.waitUntil(timeout(300).then(() => Promise.reject(Error('2'))));

const res = await p; // total duration ~400ms (100 + 300)

assertEquals(res, [
{ status: "fulfilled", value: 1 },
{ status: "rejected", reason: Error('2') },
]);
```

After all promises have settled, further calls to `waitUntil` become no-ops.

The constructor takes a promise as argument, which sets the minimum duration for the extendable promise.

If an extendable promise is created without supplying an initial promise, it is "idle" (`await`ing it pauses execution) until the first call to `waitUntil` "primes" it.

Initializing it with a synchronous value or a settled promise immediately settles the extendable promise with that value and all calls to `waitUntil` are no-ops.

This module is part of the Worker Tools collection
⁕

[Worker Tools](https://workers.tools) are a collection of TypeScript libraries for writing web servers in [Worker Runtimes](https://workers.js.org) such as Cloudflare Workers, Deno Deploy and Service Workers in the browser.
