ReferenceError: resolve is not defined

Question

I have a function to call the google speech api. Looks all is good but I cannot find why its giving me the error. I am beginner with node and promises so not sure why this error

Answer 1

You don't call resolve() from within a .then() handler. There is no such function defined there. If you want to set the resolved value of the promise from within a .then() handler, you can just return that value.

Change this:

.then(function(responses) {
      resolve(responses[0]);
      console.log("Result: ", JSON.stringify(responses[0]));
})

to this:

.then(function(responses) {
      console.log("Result: ", JSON.stringify(responses[0]));
      return responses[0];
})

FYI, the resolve() you are likely thinking of is an argument to the new Promise executor callback:

let p = new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
    resolve(10);
});

And, this is the context in which you would use it.
