Queuing of requests #160

Open dcurletti opened 5 years ago

dcurletti commented 5 years ago

Hi there- curious if this library has a queuing system in place to limit the number of simultaneous api calls?

ie. If you invoke Upload.startUpload(options).then() X number of times, what would occur?

TSMMark commented 5 years ago

I believe they will upload in parallel, but it's worth testing. A queueing system sounds like something people would like so I'll keep this open with help wanted

@TSMMark ios and android only allow for a certain number of concurrent requests to be made, is that correct?

From this documentation, it seems to be implying 6 for ios: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/nsurlsessionconfiguration/1407597-httpmaximumconnectionsperhost?language=objc

i believe on android the requests are being queued by the package android-upload-service.

i am using react-native-queue to control the flow of upload images.

This might seem like a naive approach, but maybe it will work.

Could you wrap the Upload functionality in a Promise so that the completed event resolves the promise?

Then use something like https://github.com/sindresorhus/p-map with concurrency: 1 to provide the concurrency limit?

I'm not sure how that would play with the background sessions.
