Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

default
✓ var pausequeue = require('pause-queue');
✗ import pausequeue from 'pause-queue';
Only supports CommonJS. No ES module or default export.
pausequeue
✓ var pausequeue = require('pause-queue');
✗ const pauseQueue = require('pause-queue');
Function name is pausequeue (lowercase), not pauseQueue.
require
✓ var { pausequeue } = require('pause-queue');
✗ var pausequeue = require('pause-queue').pausequeue;
The module exports the function directly, not an object with pausequeue property.

Creates a queue with concurrency 2, pushes two tasks, pauses after 1 second, resumes after 3 seconds.

var pausequeue = require('pause-queue'); var q = pausequeue(function(task, done) { console.log('Processing:', task); done(); }, 2); q.push('task1'); q.push('task2'); setTimeout(function() { q.pause(); }, 1000); setTimeout(function() { q.resume(); }, 3000);
