I have array of FormData objects and I want to post them to same URL. I want to make fixed number of AJAX requests at a time, for that I want to create pool of xhr objects. How to do that?
You can use Array.prototype.splice()
, Promise.all()
, fetch()
to perform N
requests at a time.
let data = [FormData, FormData, ..];
let N = 5;
let pool = data.splice(0, N);
let processData = requests =>
Promise.all(
requests.map(fd =>
fetch("/path/to/server", {
method: "POST",
body: fd
})
.then(response => response.ok)
)
)
.then(responses => responses.every(result => result))
.then(result => {
if (result) {
if (data.length) {
pool = data.splice(0, N);
return true
}
}
return "complete"
});
let fn = next => next === true ? processData(pool).then(fn) : next;
processData(pool)
.then(fn)
.then(complete => console.log(complete))
.catch(err => console.log(err));

You can also process the array without scheduling the function processData
to be called again if any elements are remaining in array.
