# once
|
|
|
|
Only call a function once.
|
|
|
|
## usage
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
var once = require('once')
|
|
|
|
function load (file, cb) {
|
|
cb = once(cb)
|
|
loader.load('file')
|
|
loader.once('load', cb)
|
|
loader.once('error', cb)
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or add to the Function.prototype in a responsible way:
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
// only has to be done once
|
|
require('once').proto()
|
|
|
|
function load (file, cb) {
|
|
cb = cb.once()
|
|
loader.load('file')
|
|
loader.once('load', cb)
|
|
loader.once('error', cb)
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Ironically, the prototype feature makes this module twice as
|
|
complicated as necessary.
|
|
|
|
To check whether you function has been called, use `fn.called`. Once the
|
|
function is called for the first time the return value of the original
|
|
function is saved in `fn.value` and subsequent calls will continue to
|
|
return this value.
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
var once = require('once')
|
|
|
|
function load (cb) {
|
|
cb = once(cb)
|
|
var stream = createStream()
|
|
stream.once('data', cb)
|
|
stream.once('end', function () {
|
|
if (!cb.called) cb(new Error('not found'))
|
|
})
|
|
}
|
|
```
