Module vow

Object methods:

Deferred()
description
The `Deferred` class is used to encapsulate newly-created promise object along with functions that resolve, reject or notify it.
Promise()
description
The `Promise` class is used when you want to give to the caller something to subscribe to, but not the ability to resolve or reject the deferred.
defer():vow:Deferred
description
Creates a new deferred. This method is a factory method for `vow:Deferred` class. It's equivalent to `new vow.Deferred()`.
when(value, [onFulfilled], [onRejected], [onProgress], [ctx]):vow:Promise
description
Static equivalent to `promise.then`. If `value` is not a promise, then `value` is treated as a fulfilled promise.
parameters
value
*
onFulfilled
Function
Callback that will be invoked with a provided value after the promise has been fulfilled
onRejected
Function
Callback that will be invoked with a provided reason after the promise has been rejected
onProgress
Function
Callback that will be invoked with a provided value after the promise has been notified
ctx
Object
Context of the callbacks execution
fail(value, onRejected, [ctx]):vow:Promise
