Inside an async function i have a loop and inside this loop i need to use await to resolve a promise from another async function.
async function smallestCities(states) {
const citiesInState = [];
for (const state of states) {
const length = await lengthOfState(state.Sigla);
const stateObject = {
state: state.Sigla,
cities: length,
};
citiesInState.push(stateObject);
}
citiesInState.sort((a, b) => {
if (a.cities > b.cities) return 1;
if (a.cities < b.cities) return -1;
return 0;
});
return citiesInState.filter((_, index) => index < 5).reverse();
}
It’s work fine, but eslint says to disallow await inside of loops and use Promise.all() to resolve all promises.
The problem is that my promises are in an object property:
How can i figure out to use Promise.all() with properties of an object?

Chain a .then onto the lengthOfState call to make the whole Promise resolve to the object you need, inside the Promise.all:
const citiesInState = await Promise.all(
states.map(
state => lengthOfState(state.Sigla).then(cities => ({ state: state.Sigla, cities }))
)
);
