# p-locate [](https://travis-ci.com/github/sindresorhus/p-locate)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
> Get the first fulfilled promise that satisfies the provided testing function
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Think of it like an async version of [`Array#find`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/find).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Install
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ npm install p-locate
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Usage
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Here we find the first file that exists on disk, in array order.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
const pathExists = require('path-exists');
 | 
						|
const pLocate = require('p-locate');
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
const files = [
 | 
						|
	'unicorn.png',
 | 
						|
	'rainbow.png', // Only this one actually exists on disk
 | 
						|
	'pony.png'
 | 
						|
];
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
(async () => {
 | 
						|
	const foundPath = await pLocate(files, file => pathExists(file));
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	console.log(foundPath);
 | 
						|
	//=> 'rainbow'
 | 
						|
})();
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
*The above is just an example. Use [`locate-path`](https://github.com/sindresorhus/locate-path) if you need this.*
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## API
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### pLocate(input, tester, options?)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Returns a `Promise` that is fulfilled when `tester` resolves to `true` or the iterable is done, or rejects if any of the promises reject. The fulfilled value is the current iterable value or `undefined` if `tester` never resolved to `true`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#### input
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Type: `Iterable<Promise | unknown>`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
An iterable of promises/values to test.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#### tester(element)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Type: `Function`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This function will receive resolved values from `input` and is expected to return a `Promise<boolean>` or `boolean`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#### options
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Type: `object`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
##### concurrency
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Type: `number`\
 | 
						|
Default: `Infinity`\
 | 
						|
Minimum: `1`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Number of concurrently pending promises returned by `tester`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
##### preserveOrder
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Type: `boolean`\
 | 
						|
Default: `true`
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Preserve `input` order when searching.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Disable this to improve performance if you don't care about the order.
