I need help because I couldn’t use a separate function to generate the token – it gives out a promise, not a value. I was told that a value can only be used inside a function.
For each request, I generate a new token in the first request and then pass that token into the second request.
I tried making a separate function to generate the token, but fetch returns a promise.
As a result, I made such a big function and it works. Is there a way to make a separate function for the first request and pass the result to the second request?
The first token generation function is required frequently, while the second request is always different.
fetch('/api/token', {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
Accept: 'application/json',
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
},
body: JSON.stringify({ 'id': '5' }),
})
.then(response => response.json())
.then(result => {
fetch('/api/reviews', {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
Accept: 'application/json',
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + result.token,
},
body: JSON.stringify({ 'limit': 10 }),
})
.then(response => response.json())
.then(result => {
this.setState({ data: result.data });
})
})

Answer
create a function that return promise
async function getToken() {
return await fetch('/api/token', {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
Accept: 'application/json',
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
},
body: JSON.stringify({ 'id': '5' }),
})
.then(response => response.json())
.then(result => {
return Promise.resolve(result.token);
}).catch(error => {
return Promise.reject(error);
})
}
async function getReview() {
const token = await getToken().then(token => {
return token
}).catch(error => {
//handle error
});
fetch('/api/reviews', {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
Accept: 'application/json',
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + token,
},
body: JSON.stringify({ 'limit': 10 }),
})
.then(response => response.json())
.then(result => {
this.setState({ data: result.data });
})
}
i did not test this code but you get the idea
i will test and update my answer asap
