I'm pretty new
to JavaScript and node.js and so being thrown into Promises is pretty daunting when it
is required for my bot to
function.
var
storedUserID;
ROBLOX.getIdFromUsername(accountArg).then(function(userID)
{
message.reply("your id is " + userID);
storedUserID =
userID;
});
message.reply(storedUserID);
This
is essentially what I have written out, it creates a variable called
'storedUserID' which I would like to update later. I am
trying to update it in the Promise but it does not seem to
work.
In the code, there is
message.reply("your id is " + userID); which works as
expected. It will print out to a user 'your id is [NUMBER]' so I know userID is not
null.
However, when I run
message.reply(storedUserID); outside of the Promise,
nothing is printed as the variable is not saved. I am not sure
why.
Any help would be appreciated as this is
going towards my work in college!
Thank you!
