How do I make the .create() function to wait for table to be filled before returning it.
Because data returns undefined

const Construct = require('../models/constructModel')

const TemplateConstruct = require('../models/constructTemplateModel')



exports.create = async function () {

  TemplateConstruct.find().then(function (constructs) {

    let table = 

    constructs.forEach((construct) => {

      let newconstruct = new Construct()

      newconstruct.number = construct.number

      newconstruct.name = construct.name

      newconstruct.basePrice = construct.basePrice

      newconstruct.baseMicrowave = construct.baseMicrowave

      newconstruct.atomGain = construct.atomGain

      newconstruct.save().then(table.push(newconstruct))

    })

    console.log(table)

    return table

  })

  // return [ 'test' ]

}

working around this :

constructFactory.create().then(function (data) {

  console.log(data)

})

Instead of chaining the promise via .then(), you can await it:

const Construct = require('../models/constructModel');

const TemplateConstruct = require('../models/constructTemplateModel');



exports.create = async function () {

  const constructs = await TemplateConstruct.find();

  let table = ;



  for (const construct of constructs) {

    let newconstruct = new Construct();

    newconstruct.number = construct.number;

    newconstruct.name = construct.name;

    newconstruct.basePrice = construct.basePrice;

    newconstruct.baseMicrowave = construct.baseMicrowave;

    newconstruct.atomGain = construct.atomGain;

    await newconstruct.save();

    table.push(newconstruct);

  }



  console.log(table);

  return table;

};
