I need to run a function after the displayPredictionSuggestions
callback retrieves and stores its result in a global variable place
.
As I understand a callback runs asynchronously. So I can't be sure that the callback is finished when I invoke console.log( JSON.stringfy( place ) );
How do I make sure that the program only continues after the callback is finished (without nesting)?
predictionService = new google.maps.places.AutocompleteService();
predictionService.getPlacePredictions({
input: '1 street, city' },
displayPredictionSuggestions );
displayPredictionSuggestions = function(predictions, status) {
place = predictions[0]['place_id'];
}
console.log( JSON.stringfy( place ) );
