Observable instead Promise with async\await

I have a method that return promise and works with async/await concept in loop.

async getFilteredGuaranteesByPermissions(): Promise<GuaranteesMetaData[]> {
    const result = [];
    for (const guarantees of this.guaranteesMetaData) {
        if (await this.permissionService.hasReadPermission(guarantees.key)) {
            result.push(guarantees);
        }
    }
    return this.groupingGuaranteesMetaDataCategories(result);
}

groupingGuaranteesMetaDataCategories(guarantees: GuaranteesMetaData[]): GuaranteesMetaData[] {
        return _.groupBy(guarantees, 'category');
    }

hasReadPermission

return boolean

groupingGuaranteesMetaDataCategories

return array.

I tried use reduce, forkJoin, map, but I cant understand how to rewrite async/await to Observable correct that is not subscribe to every hasReadPermission method in loop?

You want to wait till results array is populated before making another asynchronous call to groupingGuaranteesMetaDataCategories().

forkJoin() can be used to do that.

getFilteredGuaranteesByPermissions(): Promise<GuaranteesMetaData[]> {
  const result = [];
  for (const guarantees of this.guaranteesMetaData) {
      result.push(
        from(this.permissionService.hasReadPermission(guarantees.key)).pipe(
          map(hasPermission => hasPermission ? guarantess : null)
        )
      );
  }

  return forkJoin(result).subscribe((result) => {
    result = result.filter(value => value !== null);
    return this.groupingGuaranteesMetaDataCategories(result);
  });
}
