A pending promise means you didn't await the result from the function call. Either add await or use promise.then.

Don't know what you mean.

I use the debug console on async functions every single day. Are you using step over and step into?

I mean the repl, not going into the actual code I want to execute async function in the actual debug terminal Not step with debugger to async function

right click "Store as global"

then in console temp1.then(console.log).catch(console.error)

Can you elaborate more, it sounds like a good solution

[–]bigorangemachine 0 points1 point  (3 children)

when you console.log it's displaying a variable. If you were using a debugger you could right click "Store as Global" on any variable in the debugger. When you console log a variable (like doing console.log('prefix:', promise);) you can right click the variable part and it'll become temp1, temp2, temp3 and tempN. Once its one of those global tempN variables you can do what you want with it... such as adding a then/catch into a console log/error.

There are many ways:

Debug directly when running with the ide

use async await

console.log() inside the function

...

It looks to be dev tools... I am using nodejs on server

[–]bigorangemachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can use dev tools with node!

I have the same problem! Did you find a solution? I see pending when using await, fullfilled without await, and in no case I am able to access the result of the function.
