I am trying to return user from this function which uses another function to open the json file can I return users for the whole function
function RandomAccount(){
alert('just confirm');
readTextFile("./data.json", function(text){
var data = JSON.parse(text);
var length = data[0].length;
// better random
var i = generateUniqueRandom(length)-1;
user = data[0][i]['follow_username'];
return user;
});
//i want to return user here
}
Declare user before the inline function is called. Example:
function RandomAccount(){
var user;
alert('just confirm');
readTextFile("./data.json", function(text){
var data = JSON.parse(text);
var length = data[0].length;
// better random
var i = generateUniqueRandom(length)-1;
user = data[0][i]['follow_username'];
});
//i want to return user here
return user;
}
