Is there a way to create a promise that resolves when loading the Google Maps Javascript API?

Question

The Google Maps Javascript API should load as follows :

<script>
  function initMap() {
    console.log('loaded');
  }
</script>
<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?callback=initMap" async defer></script>

If I had to answer my question, I would do it like this:

var googleAPILoadedPromise = Promise.pending();
function initMap() {
  googleAPILoadedPromise.resolve();
}
googleAPILoadedPromise.promise.then(function() {
  console.log('loaded');
});

But the delay is considered obsolete and perhaps considered an anti-pattern, at least in the bluebird . Is there a better way?

Answer 1

If you think about it, I would do it like this:

<script>
  var resolvePromise = null;
  var promise = new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
    resolvePromise = resolve;
  });
  promise.then(function() {
    console.log('loaded');
  });
</script>
<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?callback=resolvePromise" async defer></script>

Probably like this:

<script>
  var loadGoogleMaps = (function(root, d, x, cb){
    var s = d.createElement(x)
    var a = d.getElementsByTagName(x)[0]
    var cleanup = function (done) {
      return function (value) {
        s.remove()
        delete root[cb]
        return done(value)
      }
    }
    return new Promise(function (resolve, reject){
      root[cb] = cleanup(resolve)
      s.onerror = cleanup(reject)
      s.async = true
      s.src = 'https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js?callback=' + cb
      a.parentNode.insertBefore(s,a)
    });
  })(this, document, 'script', 'googleMapsCallback' + Date.now())
  loadGoogleMaps.then(function(){
    console.log('loaded')
  })
</script>

. async , , js.

<script>
   initMap(): Promise<any> {
     return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
       resolve(true);
     });
