Promisification -- is a long word for a simple transform. It's conversion of a function that accepts a callback into a function returning a promise.
|
||||
|
||||
In other words, we create a wrapper-function that does the same, internally calling the original one, but returns a promise.

To be more precise, we create a wrapper-function that does the same, internally calling the original one, but returns a promise.

Such transforms are often needed in real-life, as many functions and libraries are callback-based. But promises are more convenient. So it makes sense to promisify those.

In some cases, `err` may be absent at all: `callback(result)`, or there's something exotic in the callback format, then we can promisify such functions manually.

In some cases, `err` may be absent at all: `callback(result)`, or there's something exotic in the callback format, then we can promisify such functions without using the helper, manually.

There are also modules with a bit more flexible promisification functions, e.g. [es6-promisify](https://github.com/digitaldesignlabs/es6-promisify). In Node.js, there's a built-in `util.promisify` function for that.
