Convert Promise Resolve To Readable Data In The Called Function

im doing some online test , which i need to call a function , inside that function send an http request to an api and return its response function callapi() { require('https')

Solution 1:

I would suggest you try to use async and await.

eg: function async callapi()

and return await new Promise(function (resolve, reject)

Solution 2:

If you don't want to use the promise, then you can make a sperate function(which performs the operation on returned data) and passed it to callapi function as a parameter.

functioncallapi(callback)
{
    require('https').get(`https://example.com/api/getdata`, (res) =>
    {
      res.setEncoding('utf8');
      res.on('data', function (body)
      {
        var data = JSON.parse(body);
        //return(data);callback(data); 
      });
    });

}
