Question

I have this code

App.Model('users').find(function (err, users) {
        users.forEach(function(user) {
        console.log(user.username);
    });
});

//make usernames availible here.

This console logs the usernames.
Instead of just logging to the console I want make use of the data.

But How can do this?

Thanks

They will never be available where you want them. This isn’t how async/node.js programming works.

Possible:

App.Model('users').find(function (err, users) {
    users.forEach(function(user) {
        myCallBack(user);
    });
});

var myCallBack = function(user) {
    //make usernames availible here.
    //this will be called with every user object
    console.log(user);
}

Other possibilites: EventEmitter, flow controll libraries (e.g. async).

If you have written code in other languages before you need to be open to take a complete new approach how data will be handled.
