# p-try > Start a promise chain [How is it useful?](http://cryto.net/~joepie91/blog/2016/05/11/what-is-promise-try-and-why-does-it-matter/) ## Install ```sh npm install p-try ``` ## Usage ```js import pTry from 'p-try'; try { const value = await pTry(() => { return synchronousFunctionThatMightThrow(); }); console.log(value); } catch (error) { console.error(error); } ``` ## API ### pTry(fn, ...arguments) Returns a `Promise` resolved with the value of calling `fn(...arguments)`. If the function throws an error, the returned `Promise` will be rejected with that error. Support for passing arguments on to the `fn` is provided in order to be able to avoid creating unnecessary closures. You probably don't need this optimization unless you're pushing a *lot* of functions. #### fn The function to run to start the promise chain. #### arguments Arguments to pass to `fn`. ## Related - [More…](https://github.com/sindresorhus/promise-fun) --- <div align="center"> <b> <a href="https://tidelift.com/subscription/pkg/npm-p-try?utm_source=npm-p-try&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=readme">Get professional support for this package with a Tidelift subscription</a> </b> <br> <sub> Tidelift helps make open source sustainable for maintainers while giving companies<br>assurances about security, maintenance, and licensing for their dependencies. </sub> </div>
