PromiseInterface

A promise represents the eventual result of an asynchronous operation.

The primary way of interacting with a promise is through its then method, which registers callbacks to receive either a promise’s eventual value or the reason why the promise cannot be fulfilled.

reject()  : mixed
Reject the promise with the given reason.
resolve()  : mixed
Resolve the promise with the given value.
then()  : PromiseInterface
Appends fulfillment and rejection handlers to the promise, and returns a new promise resolving to the return value of the called handler.
wait()  : mixed
Waits until the promise completes if possible.

PromiseInterface
