[JavaScript/Node.JS] How to pass variables to asynchronous callbacks
A link to this has been in my bookmarks for ages, so it’s time to make a post to write this down. var request = require(‘request’); var links = [‘https://google.com’, ‘https://yahoo.com’]; for (link in links) { (function(url) { request(url, function() { console.log(url); }); })(links[link]); } Notice the brackets around the function(url) and })(links[link]) then passes the link to that function. Check out the [source]/source if my explanation doesn’t make sense. (Please let me know too)
