How to use waitfor with request

[JBX028]

Hi,

How to use waitfor with the request module (https://github.com/mikeal/request):

    request.get({
            uri: 'https:blabla',
            headers: {'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + _BEARER}},
            function (error, response, body) {
                if(error) {
                    console.log(error);
                } else {
                    output = JSON.parse(body)
                    return output.outcome.intent;
                }
            }
        );

How can I pass what is submitted to uri and header ? I tried this but without success...:

var myRequest = wait.forMethod(request, "get", {
            uri: 'https:blabla',
            headers: {'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + _BEARER}})

Thanks in advance for the help you can provide.

You're using the parameters correctly, the problem is Wait.for is expecting standardized async with callback(err,data) as the last parameter, sou you must wrap request.get in order to standardize it:

//request.get standardized
request.standardGet = function ( options, callback) {
    request.get(options,
            function (error, response, body) {
                //standardized callback
                var data={ response: response, body:body};
                callback(error,data);
            });
}

...
// in a fiber
...
var data = wait.for( request.standardGet, 
     { uri: 'https:blabla'
       ,headers: {'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + _BEARER}
     });
output = JSON.parse(data.body)
return output.outcome.intent;

Note: Just writing it here - I did not try this code.
