async await javascript api call code example

Example 1: async fetch api call

async function getUserAsync(name) {
  try{
    let response = await fetch(`https://api.github.com/users/${name}`);
    return await response.json();
  }catch(err){
    console.error(err);
    // Handle errors here
  }
}

Example 2: fetch await

async function getUserAsync(name) 
{
  let response = await fetch(`https://api.github.com/users/${name}`);
  let data = await response.json()
  return data;
}

getUserAsync('yourUsernameHere')
  .then(data => console.log(data));

Example 3: async await

const data = async ()  => {
  const got = await fetch('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/todos/1');
  
  console.log(await got.json())
}

data();

Example 4: async await

async function showAvatar() {

  // read our JSON
  let response = await fetch('/article/promise-chaining/user.json');
  let user = await response.json();

  // read github user
  let githubResponse = await fetch(`https://api.github.com/users/${user.name}`);
  let githubUser = await githubResponse.json();

  // show the avatar
  let img = document.createElement('img');
  img.src = githubUser.avatar_url;
  img.className = "promise-avatar-example";
  document.body.append(img);

  // wait 3 seconds
  await new Promise((resolve, reject) => setTimeout(resolve, 3000));

  img.remove();

  return githubUser;
}

showAvatar();

Example 5: async await javascript

function hello() {

  catch(e) {
    console.log('Error!', e);
  }
}
async_msg(); //output - I am adam.

Example 6: 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');
