how to use promise code example

Example 1: js create a promise

/*
	A Promise is a proxy for a value not necessarily known when the promise is created. 
    It allows you to associate handlers with an asynchronous action's eventual success 
    value or failure reason.
*/            
let promise = new Promise((resolve , reject) => {
  fetch("https://myAPI")
    .then((res) => {
      // successfully got data
      resolve(res);
    })
    .catch((err) => {
      // an error occured
      reject(err);
    });          
});

Example 2: javascript promise

var promise = new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
  // do some long running async thing…
  
  if (/* everything turned out fine */) {
    resolve("Stuff worked!");
  }
  else {
    reject(Error("It broke"));
  }
});

//usage
promise.then(
  function(result) { /* handle a successful result */ },
  function(error) { /* handle an error */ }
);

Example 3: what is a promise

// Promise is a special type of object that helps you work with asynchronous operations.
// Many functions will return a promise to you in situations where the value cannot be retrieved immediately.

const userCount = getUserCount();
console.log(userCount); // Promise {}

// In this case, getUserCount is the function that returns a Promise. If we try to immediately display the value of the userCount variable, we get something like Promise {}.
// This will happen because there is no data yet and we need to wait for it.

Example 4: js return a promise

function myAsyncFunction(url) {
  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
    xhr.open("GET", url);
    xhr.onload = () => resolve(xhr.responseText);
    xhr.onerror = () => reject(xhr.statusText);
    xhr.send();
  });
}

Example 5: promises in javascript

myPromise.then(
  function(value) { /* code if successful */ },
  function(error) { /* code if some error */ }
);

Example 6: making promises in js

getData()
    .then(data => console.log(data))
    .catch(error => console.log(error));
