sleep thread in javascript code example
Example 1: node wait 10 seconds
async function init() {
console.log(1);
await sleep(1000);
console.log(2);
}
function sleep(ms) {
return new Promise((resolve) => {
setTimeout(resolve, ms);
});
}
// one liner
let sleep = ms => new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, ms));
Example 2: javascript version of sleep
//Javascipt is asyncronous so you can't pause/block code execution
//You can delay doing something with setTimeout
setTimeout(function(){
alert("Sup!");
}, 2000);//wait 2 seconds
Example 3: javascript sleep settimeout
setTimeout(() => { console.log("World!"); }, 2000);
