javascript add delay in loop code example

Example 1: how to delay iterations in javascript

var i = 1;                  //  set your counter to 1

function myLoop() {         //  create a loop function
  setTimeout(function() {   //  call a 3s setTimeout when the loop is called
    console.log('hello');   //  your code here
    i++;                    //  increment the counter
    if (i < 10) {           //  if the counter < 10, call the loop function
      myLoop();             //  ..  again which will trigger another 
    }                       //  ..  setTimeout()
  }, 3000)
}

myLoop();                   //  start the loop

Example 2: javascript adding delay

//You have to wait for TypeScript 2.0 with async/await for ES5 support as it now supported only for TS to ES6 compilation.
//You would be able to create delay function with async:

function delay(ms: number) {
    return new Promise( resolve => setTimeout(resolve, ms) );
}

//And call it
await delay(300);
