# useDebounceFn
Debounce execution of a function.
> Debounce is an overloaded waiter: if you keep asking, your requests will be ignored until you stop and give them some time to think about your latest inquiry.
## Usage
```ts
import { useDebounceFn, useEventListener } from '@vueuse/core'
const debouncedFn = useDebounceFn(() => {
// do something
}, 1000)
useEventListener(window, 'resize', debouncedFn)
```
You can also pass a 3rd parameter to this, with a maximum wait time, similar to [lodash debounce](https://lodash.com/docs/4.17.15#debounce)
```ts
import { useDebounceFn, useEventListener } from '@vueuse/core'
// If no invokation after 5000ms due to repeated input,
// the function will be called anyway.
const debouncedFn = useDebounceFn(() => {
// do something
}, 1000, { maxWait: 5000 })
useEventListener(window, 'resize', debouncedFn)
```
Optionally, you can get the return value of the function using promise operations.
```ts
import { useDebounceFn } from '@vueuse/core'
const debouncedRequest = useDebounceFn(() => 'response', 1000)
debouncedRequest().then((value) => {
console.log(value) // 'response'
})
// or use async/await
async function doRequest() {
const value = await debouncedRequest()
console.log(value) // 'response'
}
```
Since unhandled rejection error is quite annoying when developer doesn't need the return value, the promise will **NOT** be rejected if the function is canceled **by default**. You need to specify the option `rejectOnCancel: true` to capture the rejection.
```ts
import { useDebounceFn } from '@vueuse/core'
const debouncedRequest = useDebounceFn(() => 'response', 1000, { rejectOnCancel: true })
debouncedRequest()
.then((value) => {
// do something
})
.catch(() => {
// do something when canceled
})
// calling it again will cancel the previous request and gets rejected
setTimeout(debouncedRequest, 500)
```

## Type Declarations
```ts
export type UseDebounceFnReturn<T extends FunctionArgs> = PromisifyFn<T>
/**
* Debounce execution of a function.
*
* @see https://vueuse.org/useDebounceFn
* @param fn A function to be executed after delay milliseconds debounced.
* @param ms A zero-or-greater delay in milliseconds. For event callbacks, values around 100 or 250 (or even higher) are most useful.
* @param options Options
*
* @return A new, debounce, function.
*
* @__NO_SIDE_EFFECTS__

export declare function useDebounceFn<T extends FunctionArgs>(
fn: T,
ms?: MaybeRefOrGetter<number>,
options?: DebounceFilterOptions,
): UseDebounceFnReturn<T>
