how to use the delay function from lodash in javascript

To use the delay function from lodash, you first need to install the lodash library using npm or yarn:

index.tsx
npm install lodash
19 chars
2 lines

Once you have installed lodash, you can use the delay function to delay the execution of a function by a certain number of milliseconds. Here is an example:

index.tsx
const _ = require('lodash');

console.log('start');

// delay for 2 seconds before executing this function
_.delay(() => {
  console.log('2 seconds later...');
}, 2000);

console.log('end');
191 chars
11 lines

The output of this code will be:

index.tsx
start
end
2 seconds later...
29 chars
4 lines

As you can see, the console.log('end') statement executes immediately, and then the _.delay function waits for 2 seconds before executing the anonymous function that logs '2 seconds later...'.

The first argument to _.delay is the function that you want to execute after the delay, and the second argument is the number of milliseconds that you want to delay execution by.

Note that the delay function is asynchronous, so any code that comes after the _.delay call will execute immediately, without waiting for the delay to complete.
