Examples from a talk about Node.js Async Iterators

This talk has been delivered in the following events:

• Finding a lost song with Node.js & async iterators (Node.js Dublin Meetup) - Slides
• Finding a lost song with Node.js & async iterators (Sailsconf) - Slides Video
• Finding a lost song with Node.js & async iterators (EnterJS) - Slides
• Finding a lost song with Node.js & async iterators (NodeConf Remote) - Slides

NOTE: You will need at least Node.js 16 to run some of the examples in this repository.

Install dependencies with:

npm install

Some examples requires you to have a Last.fm API key. You can request one here.

Once you have an API key you can export it as an environment variable:

export API_KEY="mysupersecretlastfmapikey"

All examples are available in the src folder.

You can run them with node. For instance:

node src/07_iterable.js

For a more "serious" library to fetch data from Last.fm check out scrobbles.

Everyone is very welcome to contribute to this project. You can contribute just by submitting bugs or suggesting improvements by opening an issue on GitHub.
