I am getting Promise <Pending> when using mongoose find() function

Question

I have created a function that gets the list of all products from MongoDB. I am using a mongoose package. I am trying to console log it but instead, I am getting Promise. Here is my code: -

router.get('/', function (req,res) {

    //Gets all the products being sold by the particular seller
    const allProducts = findAllProducts(userId);
    console.log(allProducts);
})

async function findAllProducts(sellerId) {
    try {
        let products = await Products.find( { seller: {
            Id: sellerId
        }});   
        return products;     
    } catch (error) {
        console.log(e);
    }
}

You need to move async/await to the route function:

router.get('/', async function (req,res) {

    //Gets all the products being sold by the particular seller
    const allProducts = await findAllProducts(userId);
    console.log(allProducts);
})

function findAllProducts(sellerId) {
    try {
        return Products.find( { seller: {
            Id: sellerId
        }});   

    } catch (error) {
        console.log(e);
    }
}
