Run async/await function call from class as one-liner

Question

I am having a class with a function that is using a promise (for simplicity I am using console.log() ):

class Foo {

    constructor() { }

    async func(s) {
        try {
            await console.log(s)
        } catch (e) {
            console.error(e.message);
        }
    }
}

module.exports = { Foo };

When I call the function in my main.js file I want to wait until the promise finished and then execute the next step:

const {
    Foo
} = require('./t22_1-async-await-class')

let foo = new Foo()

foo.func("1. Before Promise").then(() => {
    console.log("2. Promise")
})


console.log("3. Later...");

However, I get:

1. Before Promise
3. Later...
2. Promise

I would like to execute the func() and only then run the next console.log() .

I know that I could use a .then() and wrap the console.log("3. Later..."); in it. This gets very confusing if I have a lot of code that I would like to execute after that.

Is there anther way to execute func() without using a then() ?

I appreciate your replies!

Answer 1

use top level await (not real one since it's still WD )

async function main(){
    const {
        Foo
    } = require('./t22_1-async-await-class')
    let foo = new Foo()

    await foo.func("1. Before Promise")
    console.log("2. Promise")
    console.log("3. Later...");
}
