robertknight / pipe.ts
Created November 1, 2015 12:30
Cancelable callbacks for promises
/**
* A Pipe is a proxy for a function which supports cancelation.
* When a pipe is called, it will pass its arguments to the underlying
* function, unless it is canceled in which case it will become a no-op.
*
* Pipes are useful as a way to cancel promise callbacks by wrapping
* the fulfilment or rejection handler.
*
* eg.
* aPipe = pipe(arg => doSomethingWithArg(arg));
