how to call on an async method 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: javscript async await explained

// Promise approach

function getJSON(){

    // To make the function blocking we manually create a Promise.
    return new Promise( function(resolve) {
        axios.get('https://tutorialzine.com/misc/files/example.json')
            .then( function(json) {

                // The data from the request is available in a .then block
                // We return the result using resolve.
                resolve(json);
            });
    });

}

// Async/Await approach

// The async keyword will automatically create a new Promise and return it.
async function getJSONAsync(){

    // The await keyword saves us from having to write a .then() block.
    let json = await axios.get('https://tutorialzine.com/misc/files/example.json');

    // The result of the GET request is available in the json variable.
    // We return it just like in a regular synchronous function.
    return json;
}
