Say I have a function object-

setObj : function(a,b){

    obj.a = a;

    obj.b = b;

}

If I have to use async & await on this function object, how do I do it?

If the same was written in function (function way), say-

async function setObj(a,b){

    obj.a = a;

    obj.b = b;

}



await setObj(2,3);

This works fine. But, how do I do it in case of function object?

If I understand your question correctly, you can just use the async keyword in front of the method declaration:

let obj = {};

let myObj = {

    async setObj(a,b) {

        obj.a = a;

        obj.b = b;

    }

}

UPDATE

You cannot use await outside of an async function. In order to use this you have to wrap that call to await setObj(2, 3):

async function consoleLog() {

    await myObj.setObj(2, 3);

    console.log(obj.a + obj.b);

}



consoleLog();
