Appends a rejection handler callback to the promise, and returns a new promise resolving to the return value of the callback if it is called, or to its original fulfillment value if the promise is instead fulfilled.
-`wait($unwrap = true) : mixed`
Synchronously waits on the promise to complete.
`$unwrap` controls whether or not the value of the promise is returned for a
fulfilled promise or if an exception is thrown if the promise is rejected.
This is set to `true` by default.
-`cancel()`
Attempts to cancel the promise if possible. The promise being cancelled and
the parent most ancestor that has not yet been resolved will also be
cancelled. Any promises waiting on the cancelled promise to resolve will also
be cancelled.
-`getState() : string`
Returns the state of the promise. One of `pending`, `fulfilled`, or
`rejected`.
-`resolve($value)`
Fulfills the promise with the given `$value`.
-`reject($reason)`
Rejects the promise with the given `$reason`.
### FulfilledPromise
A fulfilled promise can be created to represent a promise that has been
fulfilled.
```php
use GuzzleHttp\Promise\FulfilledPromise;
$promise = new FulfilledPromise('value');
// Fulfilled callbacks are immediately invoked.
$promise->then(function ($value) {
echo $value;
});
```
### RejectedPromise
A rejected promise can be created to represent a promise that has been
rejected.
```php
use GuzzleHttp\Promise\RejectedPromise;
$promise = new RejectedPromise('Error');
// Rejected callbacks are immediately invoked.
$promise->then(null, function ($reason) {
echo $reason;
});
```
## Promise Interoperability
This library works with foreign promises that have a `then` method. This means
you can use Guzzle promises with [React promises](https://github.com/reactphp/promise)
for example. When a foreign promise is returned inside of a then method
callback, promise resolution will occur recursively.
```php
// Create a React promise
$deferred = new React\Promise\Deferred();
$reactPromise = $deferred->promise();
// Create a Guzzle promise that is fulfilled with a React promise.
$guzzlePromise = new GuzzleHttp\Promise\Promise();
$guzzlePromise->then(function ($value) use ($reactPromise) {
// Do something something with the value...
// Return the React promise
return $reactPromise;
});
```
Please note that wait and cancel chaining is no longer possible when forwarding
a foreign promise. You will need to wrap a third-party promise with a Guzzle
promise in order to utilize wait and cancel functions with foreign promises.
### Event Loop Integration
In order to keep the stack size constant, Guzzle promises are resolved
asynchronously using a task queue. When waiting on promises synchronously, the
task queue will be automatically run to ensure that the blocking promise and
any forwarded promises are resolved. When using promises asynchronously in an
event loop, you will need to run the task queue on each tick of the loop. If
you do not run the task queue, then promises will not be resolved.
You can run the task queue using the `run()` method of the global task queue
instance.
```php
// Get the global task queue
$queue = GuzzleHttp\Promise\Utils::queue();
$queue->run();
```
For example, you could use Guzzle promises with React using a periodic timer:
