bookPromise Combinators Overview

When you need to manage multiple asynchronous operations in JavaScript, Promise combinators provide powerful tools to coordinate how and when those operations complete. The four main Promise combinators are Promise.all, Promise.race, Promise.allSettled, and Promise.any. Each serves a different purpose and is best suited for specific scenarios.

Promise.all takes an array of Promises and returns a new Promise that resolves only when all the input Promises resolve. If any Promise rejects, the returned Promise rejects immediately. This is useful when you need all operations to succeed before moving forward, such as loading several pieces of data that are all required for rendering a page.

Promise.race also takes an array of Promises but returns a Promise that settles as soon as any of the input Promises settles (resolves or rejects). You might use this when you want the result of the fastest operation, like making multiple network requests to redundant servers and using the quickest response.

Promise.allSettled returns a Promise that resolves after all input Promises have settled, regardless of whether they resolved or rejected. The resulting array contains the outcome of each Promise. This is helpful when you want to know the result of every operation, even if some fail, such as when you want to display a status for each file upload.

Promise.any returns a Promise that resolves as soon as any input Promise resolves. If all Promises reject, it rejects with an AggregateError. This is ideal when you want any successful result, like trying several fallback data sources and using the first one that works.

Note

Promise combinators help manage multiple asynchronous operations in parallel.

Understanding when to use each combinator is key to writing efficient and reliable asynchronous code. For example, use Promise.all when every operation is required to succeed, and Promise.any when any single success is enough. With Promise.allSettled, you gain insight into all outcomes, while Promise.race lets you react to the first result, regardless of success or failure.
