Build Status

a little module for handing out protocol sequencing numbers. just npm install protoseq.

examples

var protoseq = require('protoseq');

// hand out seq
var nextSeq = protoseq();

// ... do something

// turn in seq 
protoseq(nextSeq);
var Sequencer = require('protoseq').Sequencer;

var instance = new Sequencer();

var nextSeq = instance.getNext();

// ... do something

instance.turnIn(nextSeq);
var protoseq = require('protoseq');

// hand out seqs
var nextSeq = protoseq();
var nextSeq = protoseq();
var nextSeq = protoseq();
var nextSeq = protoseq();
var nextSeq = protoseq();

// ... do something

// oops i lost track of the seqs! let's turn in everything
protoseq.reset();
var Sequencer = require('protoseq').Sequencer;

var instance = new Sequencer();

var nextSeq = instance.getNext();


// hand out seqs
var nextSeq = instance.getNext();
var nextSeq = instance.getNext();
var nextSeq = instance.getNext();
var nextSeq = instance.getNext();
var nextSeq = instance.getNext();

// ... do something

// oops i lost track of the seqs! let's turn in everything
delete instance;
instance = new Sequencer();

api

([optional]turnIn)

a singleton function that hands out sequence numbers (if no parameter), and turns in sequence numbers (if parameter).

reset()

clears the singleton function's backing pool. this is equivalent to turning everything in.

Sequencer

returns the constructor for the actual Sequencer object. the constructor takes no parameters.

Sequencer.getNext()

hands out a sequence number from the given sequencer instance. returns Number.

Sequencer.turnIn(value)

turns in a sequence number, if it's currently handed out. returns Number (0 on failure, 1 on success)

Sequencer.length()

returns the Number of currently handed out sequence numbers.
