Javascript Array of Functions

Question

var array of functions         first function  a string        second function  a string        third function  a string        forth function  a string      array of functions 0     That does not work as intended because each function in the array is executed when the array is created   What is the proper way of executing any function in the array by doing   array of functions 0       or  array of functions 1  etc    Thanks

I have many problems trying to solve this one... tried the obvious, but did not work. It just append an empty function somehow.

array_of_functions.push(function() { first_function('a string') });

I solved it by using an array of strings, and later with eval:

array_of_functions.push("first_function('a string')");

for (var Func of array_of_functions) {
   eval(Func);
   }

It s basically the same as Darin Dimitrov s but it shows how you could use it do dynamically create and store functions and arguments  I hope it s useful for you      x000D   x000D  var argsContainer     hello    you    there    x000D  var functionsContainer       x000D   x000D  for  var i   0  i  lt  argsContainer length  i      x000D  var currentArg   argsContainer i    x000D   x000D    functionsContainer push function currentArg   x000D      console log currentArg   x000D        x000D     x000D   x000D  for  var i   0  i  lt  functionsContainer length  i      x000D    functionsContainer i  argsContainer i    x000D    x000D   x000D   x000D

Using ES6 syntax  if you need a  quot pipeline quot  like process where you pass the same object through a series of functions  in my case  a HTML abstract syntax tree   you can use for   of to call each pipe function in a given array  const setMainElement   require  quot   set-main-element js quot   const cacheImages   require  quot   cache-images js quot   const removeElements   require  quot   remove-elements js quot    let htmlAst       const pipeline         setMainElement      cacheImages      removeElements       htmlAst    gt               Using a dynamic closure            for  const pipe of pipeline        pipe htmlAst

the probleme of these array of function are not in the  array form  but in the way these functions are called    then     try this   with a simple eval       array of function     fx1     fx2     fx3       fxN     var zzz     for  var i 0  i lt array of function length  i           var zzz    eval  array of function i         it work s here  where nothing upper was doing the job at home     hopes it will help

Ah man there are so many weird answers    const execute    fn    gt  fn   const arrayOfFunctions    fn1  fn2  fn3   const results   arrayOfFunctions map execute   or if you want to sequentially feed each functions result to the next  compose fn3  fn2  fn1   compose is not supported by default  but there are libraries like ramda  lodash  or even redux which provide this tool

If you re doing something like trying to dynamically pass callbacks you could pass a single object as an argument  This gives you much greater control over which functions you want to you execute with any parameter   function func one arg        console log arg      function func two arg        console log arg   make this different       var obj         callbacks   func one  func two       params    something    something else        function doSomething obj        var n   obj counter     for  n  n  lt   obj callbacks length - obj len   n              obj callbacks n  obj params n              obj counter   0  obj len   0  doSomething obj       something   something else make this different  obj counter   1  obj len   0  doSomething obj      something else make this different

I think this is what the original poster meant to accomplish   var array of functions         function     first function  a string          function     second function  a string          function     third function  a string          function     fourth function  a string        for  i   0  i  lt  array of functions length  i          array of functions i         Hopefully this will help others  like me 20 minutes ago  -  looking for any hint about how to call JS functions in an array

User · Answer

Without more detail of what you are trying to accomplish  we are kinda guessing  But you might be able to get away with using object notation to do something like this     var myFuncs       firstFunc  function string           do something         secondFunc  function string           do something         thirdFunc  function string           do something         and to call one of them     myFuncs firstFunc  a string
