It seems that the queue actually waits for the job to end to start the new one but there is a difference on when the callback is called in terms of async logic: https://stackblitz.com/edit/node-1fslka?file=index.js
I'm not sure this is an actual issue? There will always be subtle differences in timing with using callbacks vs functions. If you need to the task callback to not block the event loop, you can always defer inside it.
What version of async are you using?
3.2.4
Which environment did the issue occur in (Node/browser/Babel/Typescript version)
Node
What did you do? Please include a minimal reproducible case illustrating issue.
Using async.queue I get different execution results when I use promises instead of callbacks.
https://stackblitz.com/edit/node-qeye7d?file=index.js
You can execute the code in this example by typing
node index
in the stackblitz terminal.What did you expect to happen?
Results should be the same.
What was the actual result?
Results were different in terms of order of execution.
Here's my code:
Actual output is:
CALLBACKS job started job1 job done { name: 'job1' } job started job2 job done { name: 'job2' }
PROMISES job started job1 job started job2 job done { name: 'job1' } job done { name: 'job2' }
Expected output is:
CALLBACKS job started job1 job done { name: 'job1' } job started job2 job done { name: 'job2' }
PROMISES job started job1 job done { name: 'job1' } job started job2 job done { name: 'job2' }
