# [try-catch-callback][author-www-url] [![npmjs.com][npmjs-img]][npmjs-url] [![The MIT License][license-img]][license-url] [![npm downloads][downloads-img]][downloads-url]
> try/catch block with a callback, used in [try-catch-core][]. Use it when you don't care about asyncness so much and don't want guarantees. If you care use [try-catch-core][].

## Install
```
npm i try-catch-callback --save
```
## Usage
> For more use-cases see the [tests](./test.js)
```js
const tryCatchCallback = require('try-catch-callback')
```
### [tryCatchCallback](index.js#L45)
> Pass a synchronous `fn` that returns some result and handle completion or errors in `cb` if given, otherwise it returns thunk which accepts that `cb`. It's possible to not work in "async mode", if that's the case try to use [try-catch-core][] for your case, which guarantees that `cb` is called only once and always in next tick, using [dezalgo][] and [once][].
**Params**
* `<fn>` **{Function}**: function to be called.
* `[opts]` **{Object}**: optional options, such as `context` and `args`
* `[opts.context]` **{Object}**: context to be passed to `fn`
* `[opts.args]` **{Array}**: custom argument(s) to be pass to `fn`, given value is arrayified
* `[opts.passCallback]` **{Boolean}**: pass `true` if you want `cb` to be passed to `fn` args
* `[opts.return]` **{Boolean}**: if `true` returns error/value and does not calls `cb`
* `[cb]` **{Function}**: callback with `cb(err, res)` signature.
* `returns` **{Function}** `thunk`: if `cb` not given.
**Example**
```js
var tryCatch = require('try-catch-callback')
tryCatch(function () {
return 'fox qux'
}, function done (err, res) {
if (err) return console.error(err)
console.log(res) // => 'fox qux'
})
```
**passing custom context**
```js
const tryCatch = require('try-catch-callback')
tryCatch(function () {
console.log(this.foo) // => 'bar'
console.log(this.baz) // => 'qux'
return `${this.foo}/${this.baz}`
}, {
context: { foo: 'bar', baz: 'qux' }
}, function done (err, res) {
if (err) return console.error(err)
console.log(res) // => 'bar/qux'
})
```
**passing custom arguments**
```js
const tryCatchCallback = require('try-catch-callback')
const done = (err, res) => console.log(res) // => 'zzz123'
const opts = {
args: [ { foo: 'zzz' }, 123 ]
}
tryCatchCallback((ctx, qux) => {
return ctx.foo + qux
}, opts, done)
```
**returning a thunk**
```js
const tryCatch = require('try-catch-callback')
const thunk = tryCatch((a, b) => {
return a + b + 3
}, { args: [1, 2] })
thunk((err, res) => {
console.log(res) // => 6
})
```
