Introduction

Introduction
Ember Await delivers a component for declarative promise resolution. Makes it easy to handle every state of the asynchronous process, without assumptions about the shape of your data or the type of request. Use it with fetch, Axios or other data fetching libraries, even GraphQL.
Rationale
Ember Await works well even in larger applications with multiple or nested data dependencies. It encourages loading data on-demand and in parallel at component level instead of in bulk at the route/page level. It's entirely decoupled from your routes, so it works well in complex applications that have a dynamic routing model or don't use routes at all. It is promise-based, so you can resolve anything you want, not just fetch requests.
Core features
Works with promises, async/await and the Fetch API
Expose states components for easier promise states handling
Provides convenient metadata (isPending, isFulfilled etc.)
Provides cancel and reload actions
Accepts onResolve, onReject and onCancel callbacks
Supports non-async data
Highly inspired by react-async​
Takes advantage of ember-concurrency to manage promise state (aborting, cancellation, etc.)
Written in TypeScript, ships with type definitions
Disclaimer
Ember Await aims to clone the functionality of React Async (a react library for handling async state) and bring the solution to Ember ecosystem. As we try to make is as close as possible, not all of them are ported 1:1 and not all of them make sense in Ember. Please keep that in mind.
