QuestionAsync call inside loop finishes later than loop itself Pin
Bohuslav Parenica2-Apr-22 0:51
Bohuslav Parenica2-Apr-22 0:51 
Hello guys - can someone give me some advice on what I am doing wrong here?

I found out very tricky asynchronous functions in JS where "await" seems not to always mean to wait. I believe there should be similar behavior in JS but it doesn't work as expected - can someone please tell me how to achieve the goal? Let me share part of the code with a little explanation

translatedInUI.forEach(async (language) => {
     const actualLanguageCode = language.code;
     const actualLanguage = await file.getLanguage(language.code);
     const updatesForActual = []; // string array of keys to be updated
     const addToActual = []; // string array of keys to be added
     const removeFromActual = []; // string array of keys to be removed

     // add updates from changes in English
     updatesForActual.push(changesInEnglish);
     // find missing keys in actual language
     english.forEach((line) => {
       let key = line.key;
       if (!actualLanguage.find((element) => element.key == key)) {
         // console.log("key not found: " + key);
         addToActual.push(key);
       }
     });
     // find keys to remove in actual language
     actualLanguage.forEach((line) => {
       let key = line.key;
       if (!english.find((element) => element.key == key)) {
         console.log("key was removed: " + key);
         removeFromActual.push(key);
       }
     });
     // we should have collected all changes for actual language
     toAdd.push({ language: actualLanguageCode, addToActual });
     toRemove.push({ language: actualLanguageCode, removeFromActual });
     toUpdate.push({ language: actualLanguageCode, updatesForActual });
     console.log(toAdd);
   });
   // we should have collected list of changes:

   console.log("to add:" + toAdd);
   console.log(toRemove);
   console.log(toUpdate);


in this code console.log after the loop is displayed with empty variables first - the one at the end of each loops are displayed correctly while the one after loop goes out as an empty array

Thank you very much for any kind of advice
