Wrap everything inside of a Promise and returning it from our function

wrap-and-return-promise.js

function webAudioTouchUnlock (context)
{
    return new Promise(function (resolve, reject)
    {
        if (context.state === 'suspended' && 'ontouchstart' in window)
        {
            var unlock = function()
            {
                context.resume().then(function()
                {
                    document.body.removeEventListener('touchstart', unlock);
                    document.body.removeEventListener('touchend', unlock);

                    resolve(true);
                }, 
                function (reason)
                {
                    reject(reason);
                });
            };

            document.body.addEventListener('touchstart', unlock, false);
            document.body.addEventListener('touchend', unlock, false);
        }
        else
        {
            resolve(false);
        }
    });
}

I’ve created an npm package called web-audio-touch-unlock
that exposes this method and makes it easy to use in your own projects.
Just pass your AudioContext instance to it and you’re good to go!

You can try it out yourself here.

Cheers!
