vmw
This is a point-in-time snapshot of the API documentation from January 2026. Going forward, we will not be maintaining a public copy of these references, and recommend users to refer to the built-in signature helpers available in the Hack LSP instead for complete and up-to-date information.
Returns an Awaitable of Vector of ResultOrExceptionWrapper after a
mapping operation has been applied to each value in the provided
Traversable
namespace HH\Asio;
function vmw<Tv, Tr>(
Traversable<Tv> $inputs,
(function(Tv): Awaitable<Tr>) $callable,
): Awaitable<Vector<ResultOrExceptionWrapper<Tr>>>;
This function is similar to vm(), except the Vector in the returned
Awaitable contains ResultOrExceptionWrappers instead of raw values.
This function is similar to Vector::map(), but the mapping of the values
is done using Awaitables.
This function is called vmw because we are returning a vector, doing a
mapping operation and each member of the Vector is wrapped by a
ResultOrExceptionWrapper.
$callable must return an Awaitable.
The ResultOrExceptionWrappers in the Vector of the returned Awaitable
are not available until you await or join the returned Awaitable.
Parameters
Traversable<Tv>$inputs- TheTraversableof values to map.(function(Tv): Awaitable<Tr>) $callable- The callable containing theAwaitableoperation to apply to$inputs.
Returns
Awaitable<Vector<ResultOrExceptionWrapper<Tr>>>- AnAwaitableofVectorofResultOrExceptionWrapperafter the mapping operation has been applied to the values in$inputs.
Examples
<<__EntryPoint>>
async function basic_usage_main(): Awaitable<void> {
// Map a vector of numbers to half integer half
// throwing if they can't be divided evenly
$halves = await \HH\Asio\vmw(
Vector {1, 2, 3, 4},
async ($val) ==> {
if ($val % 2) {
throw new \Exception("$val is an odd number");
} else {
return $val / 2;
}
},
);
foreach ($halves as $result) {
if ($result->isSucceeded()) {
echo "Success: ";
\var_dump($result->getResult());
} else {
echo "Failed: ";
\var_dump($result->getException()->getMessage());
}
}
