How to use promise in forEach loop of array to populate an object

by

Promise.all() will be helpful here:

var promises = [];

array.forEach(function(element) {
    promises.push(
        developer.getResources(element)
            .then((data) = > {
                name = data.items[0];
                return developer.getResourceContent(element, file);
            })
            .then((response) = > {
                fileContent = atob(response.content);
                self.files.push({
                    fileName: fileName,
                    fileType: fileType,
                    content: fileContent
                });
            }).catch ((error) = > {
                console.log('Error: ', error);
            })
    );
});

Promise.all(promises).then(() => 
    self.resultingFunction(self.files)
);

This starts the AJAX call for each of the items, adds the result of each call to self.files once the call is complete and calls self.resultingFunction() after all calls have been completed.

Edit: Simplified based on Yury Tarabanko’s suggestions.
