# p-defer [](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/p-defer)
> Create a deferred promise
[**Don't use this unless you know what you're doing!**](https://github.com/petkaantonov/bluebird/wiki/Promise-anti-patterns#the-deferred-anti-pattern) Prefer the `Promise` constructor.
## Install
```
$ npm install --save p-defer
```
## Usage
```js
const pDefer = require('p-defer');
function delay(ms) {
const deferred = pDefer();
setTimeout(deferred.resolve, ms, '🦄');
return deferred.promise;
}
delay(100).then(console.log);
//=> '🦄'
```
*The above is just an example. Use [`delay`](https://github.com/sindresorhus/delay) if you need to delay a promise.*
## API
### pDefer()
Returns an `Object` with a `promise` property and functions to `resolve()` and `reject()`.
