r-promises 1.3.0

Abstractions for promise-based asynchronous programming

This package provides fundamental abstractions for doing asynchronous programming in R using promises. Asynchronous programming is useful for allowing a single R process to orchestrate multiple tasks in the background while also attending to something else. Semantics are similar to JavaScript promises, but with a syntax that is idiomatic R.
