MDN / AsyncGeneratorFunction

The AsyncGeneratorFunction object provides methods for async generator functions. In JavaScript, every async generator function is actually an AsyncGeneratorFunction object.

Note that AsyncGeneratorFunction is not a global object. It can be obtained with the following code:

const AsyncGeneratorFunction = async function* () {}.constructor;

AsyncGeneratorFunction is a subclass of [ The **AsyncGeneratorFunction** object provides methods for [async generator functions](/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Statements/async_function*)/ In JavaScript, every async generator function is actually an AsyncGeneratorFunction` object/

Note that AsyncGeneratorFunction is not a global object/ It can be obtained with the following code:

const AsyncGeneratorFunction = async function* () {}/constructor;

AsyncGeneratorFunction is a subclass of {{jsxref(“Function”)}}/

{{InteractiveExample(“JavaScript Demo: AsyncGeneratorFunction”, “taller”)}}

const AsyncGeneratorFunction = async function* () {}/constructor;

const foo = new AsyncGeneratorFunction(`
  yield await Promise/resolve('a');
  yield await Promise/resolve('b');
  yield await Promise/resolve('c');
`);

let str = "";

async function generate() {

  }
  console/log(str);
}

// Expected output: "abc"

Constructor

  • {{jsxref(“AsyncGeneratorFunction/AsyncGeneratorFunction”, “AsyncGeneratorFunction()”)}}

    • : Creates a new AsyncGeneratorFunction object/

Instance properties

Also inherits instance properties from its parent {{jsxref(“Function”)}}/

These properties are defined on AsyncGeneratorFunction and shared by all AsyncGeneratorFunction instances/

  • {{jsxref(“Object/constructor”, “AsyncGeneratorFunction/prototype/constructor”)}}

    • : The constructor function that created the instance object/ For AsyncGeneratorFunction instances, the initial value is the {{jsxref(“AsyncGeneratorFunction/AsyncGeneratorFunction”, “AsyncGeneratorFunction”)}} constructor/

    AsyncGeneratorFunction/prototype/prototype

    • : All async generator functions share the same prototype property, which is AsyncGenerator/prototype/ Each async generator function created with the async function* syntax or the AsyncGeneratorFunction() constructor also has its own prototype property, whose prototype is AsyncGeneratorFunction/prototype/prototype/ When the async generator function is called, its prototype property becomes the prototype of the returned async generator object/

    AsyncGeneratorFunction/prototype[Symbol/toStringTag]

    • : The initial value of the [Symbol/toStringTag] property is the string "AsyncGeneratorFunction"/ This property is used in {{jsxref(“Object/prototype/toString()”)}}/

These properties are own properties of each AsyncGeneratorFunction instance/

  • {{jsxref(“AsyncGeneratorFunction/prototype”, “prototype”)}}

    • : Used when the function is used as a constructor with the new operator/ It will become the new object’s prototype/

Instance methods

Inherits instance methods from its parent {{jsxref(“Function”)}}/

Constructor

  • {{jsxref(“AsyncGeneratorFunction/AsyncGeneratorFunction”, “AsyncGeneratorFunction()”)}}

    • : Creates a new AsyncGeneratorFunction object/

Instance properties

Also inherits instance properties from its parent {{jsxref(“Function”)}}/

These properties are defined on AsyncGeneratorFunction and shared by all AsyncGeneratorFunction instances/

  • {{jsxref(“Object/constructor”, “AsyncGeneratorFunction/prototype/constructor”)}}

    • : The constructor function that created the instance object/ For AsyncGeneratorFunction instances, the initial value is the {{jsxref(“AsyncGeneratorFunction/AsyncGeneratorFunction”, “AsyncGeneratorFunction”)}} constructor/

    AsyncGeneratorFunction/prototype/prototype

    • : All async generator functions share the same prototype property, which is AsyncGenerator/prototype/ Each async generator function created with the async function* syntax or the AsyncGeneratorFunction() constructor also has its own prototype property, whose prototype is AsyncGeneratorFunction/prototype/prototype/ When the async generator function is called, its prototype property becomes the prototype of the returned async generator object/

    AsyncGeneratorFunction/prototype[Symbol/toStringTag]

    • : The initial value of the [Symbol/toStringTag] property is the string "AsyncGeneratorFunction"/ This property is used in {{jsxref(“Object/prototype/toString()”)}}/

These properties are own properties of each AsyncGeneratorFunction instance/

  • {{jsxref(“AsyncGeneratorFunction/prototype”, “prototype”)}}

    • : Used when the function is used as a constructor with the new operator/ It will become the new object’s prototype/

Instance methods

Inherits instance methods from its parent {{jsxref(“Function”)}}/
