How to wait for a stream to finish piping? (Nodejs)

Question

I have a for loop array of promises, so I used Promise.all to go through them and called then afterwards.

let promises = [];
promises.push(promise1);
promise

Without async/await, it's quite nasty. With async/await, just do this:

Promise.all(promises).then(async (responses) => {
  for (...) {
    await new Promise(fulfill => stream.on("finish", fulfill));
    //extract the text out of the PDF
  }
})
