Assign value from successful promise resolve to external variable

Question

I have a pretty silly problem. Consider the following:

vm.feed = getFeed().then(function(data) {return data;});

getFeed() retu

Answer 1

This is one "trick" you can do since your out of an async function so can't use await keywork

Do what you want to do with vm.feed inside a setTimeout

vm.feed = getFeed().then(function(data) {return data;});

 setTimeout(() => {
    // do you stuf here
    // after the time you promise will be revolved or rejected
    // if you need some of the values in here immediately out of settimeout
    // might occur an error if promise wore not yet resolved or rejected
    console.log("vm.feed",vm.feed);
 }, 100);
