<nebula-queue>

Serialize activity between web components using a FIFO queue.

Installation

$ bower install -S arsnebula/nebula-queue

Getting Started

Import the element.

<link rel="import" href="/bower_components/nebula-queue/nebula-queue.html"> 

Add and configure a <nebula-queue> element to provide access to queue events and methods. Each queue is identified by a unique name. You can have as many queues as you want by adding multiple instances of the element to a template. The length property wil be updated automatically as requests are added and removed from the queue. If the length is zero, the queue is empty. The changed event can be used to listen for push and pop changes to the queue. The event does not bubble.

<nebula-queue
  id="alerts"
  queue-name="alerts"
  length="{{alertsLength}}"
  on-push="_onQueuePush"
  on-pop="_onQueuePop">
</nebula-queue>

Add a callback to the queue using the queue method. Once the request reaches the top of the queue, the callback will be invoked with a single done argument. The done argument is a function that must be called to remove the request from the queue.

this.$.alerts.queue(function(done) {
  try {
    alert('My alert is ready!')
  }
  finally {
    done()
  }
})

WARNING: Failing to call the done method will block the queue from processing any further requests. Ensure you add error handling to your callback to ensure done is called property.

For more information, see the API documentation.
