While not recommended because it makes tracking errors more difficult, it's now possible to reject a promise without explicit reason, in which case, a built-in `QPromiseUndefinedException` is thrown. This is done in anticipation of handling rejection signals without argument.
GitBook development seems a bit stuck right now so let's switch to VuePress which, IMO, is more user friendly. Update the documentation to include the version number in which features were added and use custom container to display notes and warnings.
Call the given `functor` on each element in the promise value (i.e. `Sequence<T>`), then resolve to the original sequence unmodified. Also provide a static helper to directly filter values (`QtPromise::each(values, functor)`).
Add a new helper that calls functor immediately and returns a promise fulfilled with the value returned by functor. Any synchronous exceptions will be turned into rejections on the returned promise. This is a convenient method that can be used instead of handling both synchronous and asynchronous exception flows.
Also simplify PromiseDispatch which now calls the functor with a variable number of arguments (including none).
Add a new method that iterates over all the promise values (i.e. `Sequence<T>`) and filters the sequence to another using the given `filterer` function. If `filterer` returns `true`, a copy of the item is put in the `output` sequence, otherwise, the item will not appear in `output`. Also provide a static helper to directly filter values (`QtPromise::filter(values, filterer)`).
Iterate over all the promise value (i.e. `Sequence<T>`) and map the sequence to another using the given `mapper` function. Also provide a static helper to directly map values (`QtPromise::map(values, mapper)`).
Split the root README.md in multiple Markdown files (in the `docs/` folder) to make easier reading, editing and extending the documentation. An online version is also available on netlify (https://qtpromise.netlify.com). Building it requires Node.js installed, then:
- npm install -g gitbook-cli
- gitbook install ./
- gitbook build . dist/docs
