I’m trying to run an HTTP request 3 times in node.js using the inbuilt HTTPS library, with each run having a different set of options. In order to move on to the next set of options after the completion of one execution, I”m using a for loop that increments once each run, for a total of 3 runs. However, instead of waiting for each run to finish before proceeding in the loop, it skips the first two calls completely and runs it 3 times with the third set of options. I’ve looked all over for an answer, anyone have any ideas/solutions?
for(let i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
option = i;
console.log("Calling with option " + i)
await http.request(options[i], res => {
let resp = '';
res.on('data', function(chunk) {
resp += chunk;
});
res.on('end', async function () {
let data = await JSON.parse(resp);
if(option === 0) { //Bloxlink handler
console.log("Case 1: Bloxlink")
if(data.status === "error") {
returndata += "Bloxlink returned no users"
} else {
returndata += "nBloxlink returned user with ID " + data.primaryAccount + " and username " + await noblox.getUsernameFromId(parseInt(data.primaryAccount)) + "."
}
} else if(option === 1) { //RoWifi handler
console.log("Case 2: RoWifi")
if(data.success === false) {
returndata += "RoWifi returned no users"
} else {
returndata += "nRoWifi returned user with ID " + data.roblox_id + " and username " + await noblox.getUsernameFromId(data.roblox_id) + "."
}
} else if(option === 2) { //Eryn handler
console.log("Case 3: Eryn")
if(data.status === "error") {
returndata += "Eryn returned no users"
} else {
returndata += "nEryn returned user with ID " + data.robloxId + " and username " + data.robloxUsername + "."
}
}
console.log(returndata);
});
res.on('error', function () {
channel.send('One or more APIs returned an error. The operation has been terminated.')
});
}).end();
channel.send("Run " + i + " finished: " + returndata);
console.log(returndata);
}
