Is there any function to wait/sleep in javascript..?

Answer 1

setTimeout(callback,time,param1,param2,…) <- something like "setInterval", gets executed only once after some delay……

Answer 2

@visph wrote in https://www.sololearn.com/Discuss/171574/delay :

function func() {
/* function body */
}
var delay = 2500; // millisecondes
window.setTimeout( func, delay );
/* rest of code running without waiting execution of 'func' */

If you need to WAIT instead DELAY, you must handle a way to simulate an end event for your function...

You can pass arguments to the callback function, through the setTimeout arguments list:

window.setTimeout(alert,5000,"Five second delayed alert");

Answer 3

maybe there's
sleep ()
setTimeout()

Answer 4

or with this function

// sleep time expects milliseconds
function sleep (time) {
return new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, time));
}

// Usage!
sleep(500).then(() => {
// Do something after the sleep!
});
