My apologies if this has already been discussed but what is the "preferred" pattern for using await ? Since await, which runs on promises, will now throw if the promise is rejected (preventing execution of code after the await and killing the process in Node), is it neccesary to always be wrapping await in try/catch?
I don't wrap all my sync code (even when calling functions in an external dependency) in try/catch yet a lot of posts/articles I've seen written about await is that you should always wrap it in a try/catch. Is this because there is a lot of mis-use of reject, which, AFAIK, is supposed to contain an Error and is the async equivalent of throwing? Or maybe because you just don't know the source and length of the promise chain and therefore it's dangerous? -- Best, Jordan Rome
