What is the proper flow control for loading a model? about tractjs HOT 3 CLOSED

Fixed now, I stuck with returning a Promise<void> since a Promise<bool> would always resolve to true if it does resolve - if there's an error, it would have rejected anyway.

This is indeed a layer of indirection, but in Javascript a constructor must always return the class it is constructing, it can not be asynchronous.

Initially I thought that just waiting for the model load on the first call to predict would be enough; but I agree that in some cases you will want to know when the model is loaded before predicting, specifically to check whether loading was successful. Thanks for bringing that up!

Making modelId public is ugly; I could add a function async loaded() -> Promise<void> that resolves once the model is loaded or errs if there was an error loading the model. Does that sound good to you?

I like the idea of the loaded function. My mild opinion would be async isLoaded() -> Promise<boolean>, but anything that provides the ability to check is great.
