Modern development is highly asynchronous: isn’t it about time we had tools that made programming asynchronously powerful, easy and delightful?
UIApplication.sharedApplication().networkActivityIndicatorVisible = true
when(fetchImage(), getLocation()).then { image, location in
self.imageView.image = image;
self.label.text = "Buy your cat a house in \(location)"
}.finally {
UIApplication.sharedApplication().networkActivityIndicatorVisible = false
}.catch { error in

}PromiseKit is a thorough and delightful implementation of promises for iOS and OS X with first-class support for both Objective-C and Swift.
- Check out the complete, comprehensive PromiseKit documentation.
- Read the API documentation, (note the documentation is not 100% currently as CocoaDocs is not good with Swift, you may have better luck reading the comments in the sources).
- Integrate promises into your existing projects.
use_frameworks!
pod "PromiseKit", "~> 2.0"github "mxcl/PromiseKit" ~> 2.0- iOS 8 Frameworks (Binaries)
Please Note The preferred way to integrate PromiseKit is CocoaPods or Carthage.
Neither CocoaPods or Carthage will install PromiseKit 2 for an iOS 7 target. Your options are:
pod "PromiseKit", "~> 1.5"†‡- Use our iOS 7 EZ-Bake
- Download our pre-built static framework (coming soon!)
† There is no Swift support with PromiseKit 1.x installed via CocoaPods.
‡ PromiseKit 1.x will work as far back as iOS 5 if required.
PromiseKit is hundreds of hours of work almost completely by just me: Max Howell. I thoroughly enjoyed making PromiseKit, but nevertheless if you have found it useful then your bitcoin will give me a warm fuzzy feeling from my head right down to my toes: 1JDbV5zuym3jFw4kBCc5Z758maUD8e4dKR.
