javascript await promise code example

Example 1: how to make an async function

function resolveAfter2Seconds() {
  return new Promise(resolve => {
    setTimeout(() => {
      resolve('resolved');
    }, 2000);
  });
}

//async function:
async function asyncCall() {
  console.log('calling');
  const result = await resolveAfter2Seconds();
  console.log(result);
  // expected output: 'resolved'
}

asyncCall();

Example 2: js async await

/* Notes:
	1. written like synchronous code
    2. compatible with try/catch blocks
    3. avoids chaining .then statements
    4. async functions always return a promise
    5. function pauses on each await expression
    6. A non promise value is converted to 
       Promise.resolve(value) and then resolved
*/

// Syntax
// Function Declaration
async function myFunction(){
  await ... // some code goes here
}
  
// Arrow Declaration
const myFunction2 = async () => {
  await ... // some code goes here
}
  
 // OBJECT METHODS

const obj = {
	async getName() {
		return fetch('https://www.example.com');
	}
}

// IN A CLASS

class Obj {
	// getters and setter CANNOT be async
	async getResource {
		return fetch('https://www.example.com');
	}
}

Example 3: js await

const a = async () => {	
  	await b();
  	c();
};

Example 4: await javascript

The await operator is used to wait for a Promise. It can only be used inside an async function within regular JavaScript code; however it can be used on its own with JavaScript modules.

Example 5: async await

async function showAvatar() {
	// read
  	await setTimeout(resolve, 3000);
    // read next 3s
}

showAvatar();

Example 6: async and await

function delayResult() {
 return new Promise(resolve => {
   setTimeout(() => {
     resolve(‘Done’);
   }, 5000)
 })
}
async function getResult() {
 let result = await delayResult();
 return result;
}
getResult();
