To do multiple tasks with async.map asynchronously you have to:
- Define a function for what you want to do with each object (your task)
- Add that function as an event hook in your request
- Call
async.map on a list of all the requests / actions
Example:
1
2

# A simple task to do to each response object

async_list = []
for u in urls:
# The "hooks = {..." part is where you define what you want to do
#
# Note the lack of parentheses following do_something, this is
# because the response will be used as the first argument automatically
action_item = async.get(u, hooks = {'response' : do_something})
# Add the task to our list of things to do via async
async_list.append(action_item)
# Do our list of things to do via async
async.map(async_list)
