You can call an async function from your EventListener
.
The first problem I see is that you are invoking the callback function right away in the second argument of window.addEventListener
by including it as loadEdit()
instead of loadEdit
or () => loadEdit()
. You have to give it a function as second argument, right now you are giving a Promise or the return value of loadPre()
.
Try this way:
window.addEventListener("load", () => loadEdit(), false);
async function loadEdit() {
// do the await things here.
}
Async function return Promises. So, if you would like to do something after loadEdit
, try:
window.addEventListener("load", () => {
loadEdit().then(/* callback function here */);
}, false);
async function loadEdit() {
// do the await things here.
}
