Why async inertiajs request from js code does not work?

Async requests in Ionic/Angular using the $http service from AngularJS can sometimes fail to work as expected when using the async/await syntax in JavaScript. This issue is not specific to Ionic or AngularJS, but rather a common problem with how JavaScript handles asynchronous functions and promises.

The main reason for this issue is that the JavaScript engine may not always execute the async function in a strictly synchronous order, even when using the async/await syntax. This can lead to unexpected behavior, such as the promise not being resolved or rejected properly, or the code continuing to execute before the promise has been resolved.

To work around this issue, you can use other methods to handle asynchronous requests in AngularJS, such as using the then() method to handle the resolved promise, or using the AngularJS $q service to handle deferred promises.

Here's an example of how to use the then() method to handle a resolved promise:

$http.get('api/endpoint')
  .then(function(response) {
    // handle successful response here
  }, function(error) {
    // handle error response here
  });

And here's an example of how to use the $q service to handle a deferred promise:

var deferred = $q.defer();
$http.get('api/endpoint')
  .then(function(response) {
    deferred.resolve(response.data);
  }, function(error) {
    deferred.reject(error);
  });

// later in the code, use the promise returned by the deferred
deferred.promise.then(function(data) {
  // handle successful response here
}, function(error) {
  // handle error response here
});

By using these methods to handle asynchronous requests, you can ensure that your code waits for the promise to be resolved or rejected before continuing to execute, which can help prevent unexpected behavior and make your code more predictable and reliable.
