f-throttle

Limit concurrency of a function returning a promise.

Usage

var throttle = require("f-throttle")
var throttledFn = throttle(concurrency, anyFn)

throttleFn functions like anyFn, but throttled to a concurrency of concurrency, where concurency is a number equal or higher than one.

Notes

• throttledFn returns a promise.
• anyFn must return a promise. If it does not, the promise returned by throttledFn will be rejected.
• You may pass any number of arguments
• Function context is preserved, so can work for when throttling a function that's a method for an object.
• When you throttle a function to a concurrency of 1, this results in execution in a serial fashion.
