Question

I need to do the code like following:

    console.log(k, v);
}

function taskSecond(k, v) {

Answer 1

You could do something like this:

function taskFirst(k, v, callback) {
    console.log(k, v);

    // Do some async operation
    if (error) {
        callback(error);
    } else {
        callback(null, result);
    }
}

function taskSecond(k, v, callback) {
    console.log(k, v);

    // Do some async operation
    if (error) {
        callback(error);
    } else {
        callback(null, result);
    }
}

function run() {
    var g1 = "Something";
    var g2 = "Something";
    var g3 = "Something";
    var g4 = "Something";

        async.series(
            [
                // Here we need to call next so that async can execute the next function.
                // if an error (first parameter is not null) is passed to next, it will directly go to the final callback
                function (next) {
                    taskFirst(g1, g2, next);
                },
                // runs this only if taskFirst finished without an error
                function (next) {
                    taskSecond(g3, g4, next);    
                }
            ],
            function(error, result){

            }
        );
}
