Closes #1304.
This adds an
env.create_deferred
method, which returns a newJsDeferred
value and a JS Promise. The deferred can be used to resolve or reject the promise from a background thread, using a thread safe function. A function is passed to theresolve
method of a deferred, which is called from the JS thread to create a JS value. This can return any type conforming to theToNapiValue
trait.Example:
I have also updated
execute_tokio_future
to utilize this new primitive instead of the existing internalpromise
module, which worked similarly but was more limited.
