Selenium WebDriver wait till element is displayed

Question

I have searched on Google and the SO site and I get answers for JAVA but do not seem to get answers for node.js

I have a web app that takes time to load. I would like

Answer 1

Try something like this:

function isItThere(driver, element){

    driver.findElement(webdriver.By.id(element)).then(function(webElement) {
            console.log(element + ' exists');
        }, function(err) {
            if (err.state && err.state === 'no such element') {
                console.log(element + ' not found');
            } else {
                webdriver.promise.rejected(err);
            }
        });
}

I adapted it slightly based on what I found here: Check if element exists - selenium / javascript / node-js and it worked a charm.
