How to deal by passing callback inside asynchronous function ?

 
 
Sun 16 Jul, 2017 01:26 pm

The async function itself should make use of the lookup() function but return the result inside the callback.

The parameters for the callback are err and res.

If an Error has been thrown by lookup() then it should be passed to err, otherwise err is null or undefined.If a result has been returned by lookup() then it should be passed to res, otherwise res is null or undefined.

const users = [
{
"login": "knuth",
"firstName": "Donald",
"lastName": "Knuth",
"likes": ["C", "Unix"]
},
{
"login": "norvig",
"firstName": "Peter",
"lastName": "Norvig",

},
{
"login": "kent",
"firstName": "Kent",
"lastName": "Beck",
"likes": ["TDD", "wikis", "Design Patterns"]
}
];

// lookup()
const lookup = (login, prop) => {
// Only change code below this line
const found = users.find(function(e){
return e.login === login;
});
if(!found) {
throw "Could not find user";
} else {
if(prop in found) {
return found[prop];
} else {
throw "Could not find property";
}
}
};

// lookupAsync()
const lookupAsync = (login, prop, callback) => {
// Only change code below this line
const found = users.find(function(e){
return e.login === login;
});
if(!found) {
throw "Could not find user";
} else {
if(prop in found) {
return found[prop];
} else {
throw "Could not find property";
}
}

//my intension below but doesn't work
//callback();
//lookupAsync(function (err,res) {});

};
test('lookupAsync() likes', assert => {
const msg = `lookupAsync(<login>, 'likes', callback) should return likes for the specified user.`;
lookupAsync('norvig', 'likes', function(err, res){
const actual = res;
const expected = ["AI", "Search", "NASA", "Mars"];
assert.deepEqual(actual, expected, msg);
assert.end();
});

});


test('lookupAsync() last name', assert => {
const msg = `lookupAsync(<login>, 'lastName') should return the last name for the specified user.`;

lookupAsync('knuth', 'lastName', function(err, res){
const expected = 'Knuth';
const actual = res;
assert.deepEqual(actual, expected, msg);
assert.end();
});
});


test('lookupAsync() with unknown user', assert => {
const msg = `lookupAsync() with unknown user should return an error with the correct message.`;
const value = lookupAsync('nobody', 'likes', function(err, res){
const actual = err.message;
const expected = 'Could not find user.';
assert.equal(actual, expected, msg);
assert.end();
});
});


test('lookupAsync() with unknown property', assert => {
const msg = `lookupAsync() with unknown property should return an error with the correct message`;
lookupAsync('mfowler', 'noprop', function(err, res){
const actual = err.message;
const expected = 'Could not find property.';
assert.equal(actual, expected, msg);
assert.end();
});
});


</script>

The output should look like(short from) :

1..4
# tests 4
# pass 4
# ok
