Discussion on: Three Ways to Retrieve JSON from the Web using Node.js

Hi Isa, this is very helpful! I have a really dumb question...feel free to ignore me, I'm new to node and promises and kinda new to Javascript.

In the node-fetch example, what if what I wanted to do with the json was return it?

Like:
const getStuffFromWhatever = (item) => {
let url = whatever?thing=item

let settings = { method: "Get" };

fetch(url, settings)
.then(res => res.json())
.then((json) => {
    return json
});

}

console.log(getStuffFromWhatever('puppy dogs')

I have tried a few things that seem reasonable to me, but they don't work. I could move the fetch into the function I actually need it in, but I will need it again elsewhere and that's not very DRY.
