Hello I am having an issue with the following sequence, I need to run multiple queries which build on each other that are in a for loop then once the final result is obtained to implement the result. I am having an issue where my for loop is looping past the query, also I need to stop the code while the findX function is running.
I know this is an async problem but I don't see how I could chain promises, or use the async npm package with needing to loop queries that depend on the result of the previous query. Thanks in advance.
    function findX(){
      //executes another query
    }
function solve(res, connection, info, requestArr, callback){
        var parentID = null;
        var obj = {};
        for (var i = 0; i <= requestArr.length; i++) {
          connection.query("SELECT WHERE ", [parentID, requestArr[i]], function(err, results) {
            if(results[0]['x']){
              var obj =  findX(x)
              break;
            }else{
                 parentID = results[0]['parentID'];
            }
          });
        }
    //Do stuff with obj only after the final result has been set in the for loop
      }
