For reference, Aria's suggestion using pure callbacks looks like this:
var timed_api_call = function () {
perform_api_call(array_of_objects.shift(), function (err) {
if (err) { … }
setTimeout(timed_api_call, 5000);
});
}
timed_api_call();

Use the "async" library and async.forEachSeries, and wrap your callback in a
setTimeout:
async.forEachSeries(array_of_objects, function (object, cb) {
perform_api_call(object, function(err) {
if (err) return cb(err);
setTimeout(cb, 5000);
});
}, function (err) {
...
});

Hi all,
I need to iterate through an array of abjects and perform an api call then
wait 5 sec before moving to the next item.
Looking for the way do write it but kinda stuck,
any help would be highly appreciated.
