Async Await tasks about taskr HOT 2 CLOSED

Hey!

1. Unfortunately, you can not use async/await syntax in programmatic API. You need to use generators and yield keyword. More can be found here

2. If i got your question right, you should wrap your function in bluebird coroutine for correct work.

Hey @radum

Without @taskr/esnext, you can only use async/await if your version of Node supports it. This means 7.4+ (with flag) or 8.x.

As @hzlmn said, you can only use the esnext package with a taskfile. Again, for programmatic usage, your Node version must support async natively.

const Taskr = require('Taskr');
const { build, clean } = require('./my-tasks');

function * default(t) {
  yield t.serial(['clean', 'build'])
}

const taskr = new Taskr({
  tasks: { build, clean, default }
});

taskr.start(); // runs "default"

For your second question, you can await (or yield) any Promise. Your clean task is missing a return statement, which means the Promise never leaves the function.

function clean(pattern, options) {
    return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
      rimraf(pattern, { glob: options }, (err, result) => (err ? reject(err) : resolve(result)));
    })
}

Although, I would recommend using the @taskr/clear package instead.

Hope that helps~
