I am trying to store result in another array after working on a array data but I always get [undefined,undefined] as my response array.
This is my code snippet, I am not sure if this is correct way to get the data into an array.
function ping(urls) {
let responseArray = urls.map(function(url) {
request.get(url, {
timeout: 5000
}, function(err, res, body) {
if (!err) {
console.log(`Response status from ${url} is ${res.statusCode}`);
return {
url: url,
status: res.statusCode
};
} else {
console.log(`Exception occurred while connecting to ${url} ERR:: ${err}`);
return {
url: url,
status: 0
};
}
});
});
console.log("This is responseArray: ", responseArray);
}
The log before my return statement is perfect and goes as:
Response status from https://google.com is 200
Response status from https://github.com is 200
But the final log gives undefined :
This is responseArray: [ undefined, undefined ]
Also the log giving undefined is printed first instead of Response status logs.
Edit As mentioned by @thomas in the comment I had also tried putting return exactly before request.get but that returned me

I had also tried forEach as mentioned by renzo it gives me this:
This is responseArray: []
EDIT 2
As mentioned by thomas I also tried promise.all() which returned:
This is responseArray: [ undefined, undefined ]
Response status from https://google.com is 200
Response status from https://github.com is 200
