Using Promise in Javascript to solve aynchronous loading(image, css, js, etc.)

Sometimes we need to complete some operations after loading static resources. Using callback function is a common method, but this approach may generate multi-callback functions, making the code struction more complex. So we can use Promise to deal with this issue.

Example(loading an image)

function loadImg(imgSrc) {
  return new Promise(function(resolve, reject){
    img.load = () => {
      // asynchronous code here
      resolve()
    }

    img.onError = () => {
      reject()
    }
  })
}


loadImg('src.jpg').then(()=>{
  // operations after loading image here
}).catch(()=>{
 // error handling
})

Example of loading mutiple images

function loadImg(imgSrc) {
  return new Promise(function(resolve, reject){
    img.load = () => {
      // asynchronous code here
      resolve()
    }

    img.onError = () => {
      reject()
    }
  })
}

const imgList = ['1.jpg', '2.jpg', '3.jpg', '4.jpg']
let imgLoadingPromise = []
for(let img of imgList) imgLoadingPromise.push(loadImg(img))

Promise.all(imgLoadingPromise).then(()=>{
  // operations after loading image here
}).catch(()=>{
 // error handling
})

Promise.all() receives an array of promises that only becomes fullfilled state when all Promise become fullfilled state
