How to Wait 1 Second in JavaScript


Aug 27, 2021

To delay a function execution in JavaScript by 1 second, wrap a promise execution


inside a function and wrap the Promise's resolve() in a setTimeout() as shown
below. setTimeout() accepts time in milliseconds, so setTimeout(fn, 1000) tells
JavaScript to call fn after 1 second.

function delay(time) {
return new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, time));
}

delay(1000).then(() => console.log('ran after 1 second1 passed'));

You could also wrap the delay call in an async function to use async await instead of
then() :

function delay(time) {
return new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, time));
}

async function test() {


console.log('start timer');
await delay(1000);
console.log('after 1 second');
}

test();

You may also skip the extra delay() function and just inline the Promise constructor
call as shown below.

async function test() {


console.log('start timer');
await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 1000));
console.log('after 1 second');
}

test();
