# p-reduce [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/p-reduce.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/p-reduce)
> Reduce a list of values using promises into a promise for a value
Useful when you need to calculate some accumulated value based on async resources.
## Install
```
$ npm install --save p-reduce
```
## Usage
```js
const pReduce = require('p-reduce');
const humanInfo = require('human-info'); // not a real module
const names = [
getUser('sindresorhus').then(info => info.name),
'Addy Osmani',
'Pascal Hartig',
'Stephen Sawchuk'
];
pReduce(names, (total, name) => {
return humanInfo(name).then(info => total + info.age);
}, 0).then(totalAge => {
console.log(totalAge);
//=> 125
});
```
## API
### pReduce(input, reducer, [initialValue])
Returns a `Promise` that is fulfilled when all promises in `input` and ones returned from `reducer` are fulfilled, or rejects if any of the promises reject. The fulfilled value is the result of the reduction.
#### input
Type: `Iterable<Promise|any>`
Iterated over serially in the `reducer` function.
#### reducer(previousValue, currentValue, index)
Type: `Function`
Expected to return a value. If a `Promise` is returned, it's awaited before continuing with the next iteration.
#### initialValue
Type: `any`
Value to use as `previousValue` in the first `reducer` invocation.
