hi all,

I'm working on an app where I need to display user's facebook events.

The code below shows how to retrieve the users events and then perform a 
query to facebook api to retrieve more event details.

As you can see, the process is: retrieving the events, then get more 
details about each, push all into an array then pass the array to the view.

I fail in sending the array to the view and I believe it might have 
something to do with the asynchronous way of nodejs. Is this where the 
callback is needed?

How can I solve this?

Hope I'm clear.

Thanks for your help

index : function(req, res){
        graph.setAccessToken(req.user.token);
        var events = [];
        graph.get("/me/events?limit=500", {limit: 500},  function(err, rep) 
{
            for(key in rep["data"]){
                var query = "SELECT eid, name, creator, description, pic, 
pic_big, pic_cover, start_time, end_time FROM event WHERE eid=" + 
rep["data"][key].id;
                graph.fql(query, function(err, event_hash) {
                    var ev = event_hash["data"][0];                    
                    if (ev.creator.toString() == req.user.uid.toString()) {
                        events.push(ev);
                    };                                        
                })                                
            };
        });                
        res.view({
            events: events
        });            
        
    },
