Get values from function Woocommerce?

Question

I need to get values from function Woocommerce. So I want the values display out of the function. Is there another simple solution to solve it?

WooCommerce.get('products?per_page=100', function(err, data, res) {

  var data = JSON.parse(res);

  var id = data[0]['id'];

});

console.log(id); // output is undefined

get is async, meaning that its callback is called after everything has finished.

id is not available anymore as it's scoped to the get callback function.

To help you debug, you could try:

var id;   

WooCommerce.get('products?per_page=100', function(err, data, res) {
    var data = JSON.parse(res);

    // keep the data you want in another variable, or object.
    id = data[0]['id']; 

    console.log(id); // test inside the function
});

The callback gets called when a response is received from the server.

is there another simple to solve it without using callback function? – Ikram Syakir Nov 14 '16 at 05:51
@IkramSyakir nope, as it's the nature of async programming in JavaScript. – Emile Bergeron Nov 14 '16 at 05:52
if i'm using callback function, how do i execute the code? – Ikram Syakir Nov 14 '16 at 05:52
