This changeset adds support for the
iterable
type forparallel()
+series()
+waterfall()
. Instead of only accepting anarray
, each function now also accepts instances implementingTraversable
such asIterator
andGenerator
instances.This is a pure feature addition that does not break BC. With these changes applied, our API is now in line with the other promise APIs (see reactphp/promise#225).
This PR targets Async v4 as the minimum API version. The same changes have been merged for Async v3 already (#45).
The first commit highlights how this is essentially only a new type definition and a call to
iterator_to_array()
. The second commit then takes advantage of a more iterative approach that uses less memory and also supports consuming infinite iterators if the resulting promise settles. The test suite confirms this has 100% code coverage.Refs #41
Builds on top of #11
