Function delay

Delays each value by the specified timeout. When the timeout is a negative number, no delay added.

import {pipe, toAsync, delay} from 'iter-ops';

const data = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]; // some synchronous data

const i = pipe(
    toAsync(data), // make asynchronous
    delay(1000)
);

for await(const a of i) {
    console.log(a); //=> 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (with 1s delay)
}

Throws

Error: 'Operator "delay" requires asynchronous pipeline' when used inside a synchronous pipeline.

See

• throttle
• timeout

Delays each value by the specified timeout (as returned from the callback). When the timeout is a negative number, it is not added.

Note that it doesn't support return of Promise<number> on purpose, to avoid confusion with what operator throttle does.

Throws

Error: 'Operator "delay" requires asynchronous pipeline' when used inside a synchronous pipeline.
