function foodlog(){ var data={ servings : $('#demo_vertical').val(), calories : $('#calories').text(), carbs : $('#carbs').text(), }; $.ajax({ type : "post", contenttype: "application/json; charset=utf-8", url : "/fitbase/foodlog/create", datatype: "json", info : json.stringify(data), success : function(response) { }, error : function(e) { alert("object" +e); } }); };

the response generated after success need in below method. wrote below code not able response. please help me out.

function getvalues(){ var response = foodlog(); console.log(response) }

you may utilize callback function efficiently.

function foodlog(callback){ //sending callback function input var data={ servings : $('#demo_vertical').val(), calories : $('#calories').text(), carbs : $('#carbs').text(), }; $.ajax({ type : "post", contenttype: "application/json; charset=utf-8", url : "/fitbase/foodlog/create", datatype: "json", info : json.stringify(data), success : callback, //calling callback function when success error : function(e) { alert("object" +e); } }); } //callback function handle response function callback(response){ console.log(response); }

when want phone call function "foodlog",

foodlog(callback);

note: have create sure function callback loaded before calling this. may have use,

$(document).ready(function(){ foodlog(callback); });
