How do I return the response from an asynchronous call?
(41 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I am downloading data via d3.json when create an object with each record that holds downloaded data. Each object will be stored in an array. I lost the ability to iterate over the array.
I have tried using multi-dimensional array, and still cannot iterate over the created object.
var datamodel = {
"mkt":[],
"confidence":[],
"homes":[],
"combined":[]
}
var tObject={};
// console.log(datamodel)
const url1 = "https://www.quandl.com/api/v3/datasets/YALE/SPCOMP.json?start_date='2015-01-01'&end_date='2018-09-30'&api_key=4QuxetVDNP8R3sYg9CED";
// Fetch the JSON data and console log it
d3.json(url1).then(function(data) {
data.dataset.data.forEach(element => {
tObject['date']=element[0];
tObject['spx'] = element[1];
tObject['rate']=element[5];
datamodel['mkt'].push(tObject); //creating an array of objects
tObject={};
});
});
I repeat the code above for other datasets to fill "confidence, homes"
I need to iterate after downloading over the datamodel, and update the "combined" so that I can have more stats, like change per date, ratios.
For instance: going to debug console in any browser, I can access the datamodel variable via datamodel.mkt
The debug console allows me to iterate over the objects, not sure why code ran in JS file does not allow me to iterate not get length of the array. I am so lost.
I hit the API in browser and copied the data in my js file. I call this function in HTML onload. Half of this function does what your code did to fill data in datamodel.mkt
Then it loops over the data present in datamodel.mkt and copies the elements in datamodel.combined
Please note that the commented forEach loop also works. You can uncomment the console.log to view the datamodel object in console
Hope this helps.

You can use map() or forEach() to get your work done. In "forEach(), you are pushing the objects, but the array is getting updated only by the last object. You can do something like this:
