# p-min-delay
> Delay a promise a minimum amount of time
While the [`delay`](https://github.com/sindresorhus/delay) module delays the promise a specified amount of time and then resolves it, this module ensures the promise resolves after the specified amount of time.
Useful when you have a promise that may settle immediately or may take some time, and you want to ensure it doesn't settle too fast. For example, if you want to show a loading indicator for at least 1 second (but longer if needed) to prevent a confusing flash in the UI.
## Install
```sh
npm install p-min-delay
```
## Usage
```js
import pMinDelay from 'p-min-delay';
const value = await pMinDelay(somePromise, 1000);
// Executed after minimum 1 second even if `somePromise` fulfills before that
```
## API
### pMinDelay(promise, minimumDelay, options?)
#### promise
Type: `Promise`
Promise to delay.
#### minimumDelay
Type: `number`
Time in milliseconds.
#### options
Type: `Object`
##### delayRejection
Type: `boolean`\
Default: `true`
Delay the rejection.
Turn this off if you want a rejected promise to fail fast.
