{"id":"y-workplace/provider","name":"provider","scope":"y-workplace","platform":"roblox","description":"Provider is a deferred value source that allows a system to expose data or functionality once it becomes available.\n\nUnlike a Callable, which requires the handler to already exist, a Provider allows other systems to wait for the value even if the provider has not yet been registered. Consumers can either retrieve the value immediately or register callbacks that will be executed once the provider becomes available.\n\nA Provider follows a simple lifecycle:\n\n• Register – define the provider function responsible for producing the value.\n• Get – synchronously retrieve the value when the provider is available.\n• Await – register a callback that will be invoked once the provider is registered.\n• Destroy – clear the provider and all pending awaiters.\n\nThis pattern is useful for dependency resolution, service discovery, or situations where systems initialize in uncertain order. By allowing consumers to wait for a provider instead of requiring strict initialization sequencing, Provider helps maintain loose coupling and predictable initialization flows in large modular architectures.\n\nProvider guarantees that:\n• only one provider function can be registered\n• consumers can safely wait for the value before it exists\n• all awaiting callbacks are resolved once the provider is registered\n• subsequent requests can retrieve the value synchronously","version":"1.0.0","latest":"1.0.0","versions":["1.0.0"],"license":"MIT","licenseRating":"safe","licenseCaveats":["The package archive does not include its license text; the license is declared in its manifest metadata."],"licenseVerified":false,"dependencies":{},"integrity":"9cdf4764cae0b96339175bc5d184b67eebf90914c126d07672f0af75acaa4e0d","likes":0,"downloads":0,"install":"forest install y-workplace/provider","url":"https://forest.dev/p/roblox/y-workplace/provider","files":"https://api.forest.dev/ai/package/roblox/y-workplace/provider/files","readme":"","readmeTruncated":false}
