one confusing thing for newbies like me: exports.get_list = function ( cb) { rclient.smembers("list", function(err, members) { members.forEach(function(member){ console.log(member) }) cb(null, 'lst') }) }
the function(member) for 'forEach' is callback, right? then why, cb(null,'lst') will wait until the loop is over?
