Moves a module into a Web Worker, automatically reflecting exported functions as asynchronous proxies.

• Bundles a tiny, purpose-built RPC implementation into your app
• If exported module methods are already async, signature is unchanged
• Supports synchronous and asynchronous worker functions
• Works beautifully with async/await
• Just 800 bytes of gzipped ES3

npm install --save workerize

Pass either a function or a string containing code.

worker.js:

let worker = workerize(` export function add(a, b) { // block for half a second to demonstrate asynchronicity let start = Date.now(); while (Date.now()-start < 500); return a + b; } `); (async () => { console.log('3 + 9 = ', await worker.add(3, 9)); console.log('1 + 2 = ', await worker.add(1, 2)); })();
