how to convert a async function toi a synchronous function in js code example
Example 1: 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 2: 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();
