node.js - Node Generators: Using yield at top-level -

i'm trying create job, reuses modules express app relies on node-harmony. (and works nicely), don't know how use generators @ "top-level".

so have file job.js

var locator = require('./../locatorsetup'); yield locator.connect(); // returns promise console.log('connected'); 

which start calling

node --harmony job.js 

unfortunately get:

yield locator.connect();       ^^^^^^^ syntaxerror: unexpected identifier 

what's recommend way of doing this?

p.s. i'm using bluebird promise library..

you can't. yield can used within generator function.

consider using co execute generator functions @ top level, so:

co(function *() {   yield locator.connect(); }); 

co returns promise can use track completion of passed generator function.
