How to run SQL query with inside a javascript loop(map)? - sql

Question

what I'm trying to do is:
loop through array of objects using map function
run multiple SQL queries according to object
append result of queries with object
I'm looping through offers which is array of object.I get free_item and buy_item which are associated with offer.I am using knexjs for postgresql database with nodejs
Here's actual code:
offers = await Promise.all(offers.map(async offer => {
free_item_id = await db("offer_free_items").where({"offer_free_items.offer_id":offer.id}).select(["item_id"]).first()
console.log("-----------------debug line 1------------------")
buy_item_id = await db("offer_buy_items").where({"offer_buy_items.offer_id":offer.id}).select(["item_id"]).first()
console.log("-----------------debug line 2-------------------")
offer["free_item_id"] = get_item_id
offer["buy_item_id"] = buy_item_id
return offer
}))
The Problem is it is not running in correct sequence.The sequence of the output is
debug line 1
debug line 1
debug line 2
debug line 2
The correct order should be like this:
debug line 1
debug line 2
debug line 1
debug line 2

Using map() iterates through your array, executing your provided function on each item and storing the results in an array. As you're passing an asynchronous function, map() will run the function on each item in parallel and return an array of pending promises, which is then wrapped in the Promise.all call to wait for them to finish.
If you're looking to run through your array sequentially, a simple for...of loop will do:
for (let offer of offers) {
offer["free_item_id"] = await db("offer_free_items").where({"offer_free_items.offer_id":offer.id}).select(["item_id"]).first()
console.log("-----------------debug line 1------------------")
offer["buy_item_id"] = await db("offer_buy_items").where({"offer_buy_items.offer_id":offer.id}).select(["item_id"]).first()
console.log("-----------------debug line 2-------------------")
}
