Wait for afterCreate flow to finish

[EmilTholin]

I would like to run some code after a afterCreate flow of a model has finished. Is there any way to tell when the afterCreate flow has resolved?

const Model = types.model("Model", {}).actions((self) => {
  return {
    afterCreate: flow(function* () {
      try {
        yield persist("xxxxxxxxx", self, {
          storage: AsyncStorage,
          jsonify: true,
        });
      } catch (error) {
        // ...
      }
    }),
  };
});

const m = Model.create();

// run some code after the afterCreate flow has resolved...

You can store the promise that is the result of the afterCreate flow in a volatile state variable, and add a separate method to the model that runs the code once the afterCreate promise has resolved:

const Model = types.model("Model", {}).actions((self) => {
  let afterCreatePromise;

  const afterCreate = flow(function* () {
    try {
      yield persist("xxxxxxxxx", self, {
        storage: AsyncStorage,
        jsonify: true,
      });
    } catch (error) {
      // ...
    }
  });

  return {
    afterCreate() {
      afterCreatePromise = afterCreate();

      return afterCreatePromise;
    },
    clear: flow(function* () {
      yield afterCreatePromise;

      // do some clearing...
    }),
  };
});

const m = Model.create();

// ...
m.clear().then(() => {
  // cleared!
});
