when to make javascript asynchronous code example
Example 1: async
function resolveAfter2Seconds() {
return new Promise(resolve => {
setTimeout(() => {
resolve('resolved');
}, 2000);
});
}
async function asyncCall() {
console.log('calling');
const result = await resolveAfter2Seconds();
console.log(result);
// expected output: 'resolved'
}
asyncCall();
Example 2: async await js
fetch('coffee.jpg')
.then(response => {
if (!response.ok) {
throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);
} else {
return response.blob();
}
})
.then(myBlob => {
let objectURL = URL.createObjectURL(myBlob);
let image = document.createElement('img');
image.src = objectURL;
document.body.appendChild(image);
})
.catch(e => {
console.log('There has been a problem with your fetch operation: ' + e.message);
});
