Sometimes, we want to write asynchronous functions for Node.js.
In this article, we’ll look at how to write asynchronous functions for Node.js.
How to write asynchronous functions for Node.js?
To write asynchronous functions for Node.js, we can use promises.
For instance, we write
const ace = async () => {
const r = await new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
resolve(true);
});
console.log(r);
};
to create the ace async function that invokes a promise.
We create the promise with the Promise constructor called with a callback that calls resolve with the resolve value of the promise.
We get the promise’s resolve value with await.
Conclusion
To write asynchronous functions for Node.js, we can use promises.
