Hi Support,






May I know can $this.db.get can pass the result into and stored as variable for global variable? In the following, the "return data.aws_ticket_id" has indeed stored the id value, but I have struggling to find out the way to use it in global context






  GetStoredData : function(f_ticket_id) {   

       this.$db.get("ticket: " + f_ticket_id + "").done(function(data) {
         return data.aws_ticket_id;       
       })   
       .fail(function(err) {
         return err;
       });
     }






I have tried first declare in global context:



var f_ticket_id = domHelper.ticket.getTicketInfo().helpdesk_ticket.display_id;






then



console.log(self_GetStoredData(f_ticket)); --> return "undefined"






Appreciate your help!

All of this.$db operations are asynchronous. In case of asynchronous operations, values cannot be returned. So callbacks must be used to pass the values.






Example:



GetStoredData : function(f_ticket_id, callback) {   



    this.$db.get("ticket: " + f_ticket_id + "").done(function(data) {



      callback(null, data.aws_ticket_id);       



    })   



    .fail(function(err) {



      callback(err);



    });



}






Calling the function



GetStoredData(f_ticket_id, function(err, data) {



    //err & data



});
