How to call asyncawait JavaScript function in UnityC# WebGL platform?

I followed this doc to call JavaScript function from my C# script in Unity to make a WebGL game.

But there is a problem if the js code contains async/await, for example:

C# script:

    [DllImport("__Internal")]
    private static extern void Foo();

    [DllImport("__Internal")]
    private static extern void Boo();

    void Start(){
      Foo();
      Boo();
    }

JavaScript mylib.jslib

mergeInto(LibraryManager.library, {
  // works well
  Foo: function () {
    window.alert("Hello, world!");
  },

  // error: can't pile
  Boo: async function (){
    var s = function (ms) {
        return new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, ms));
    };
    await s(2000);
    window.alert("Boo!");
  }
});

When I tried to build these code, it showed error as below:

Are you using a very old version of Unity? As far as I know Unity doesn't support JS anymore, which means it also probably doesn't support ES6+ syntaxes ... – mcdev Commented Nov 11, 2021 at 6:43
@mcdev No, I'm using Unity 2020 LTS. The deprecated JS support you mentioned is about using JS as game script, but I'm using JS for WebGL game which use C# as game script and try to call JS script that is in web page. – CloudL Commented Nov 11, 2021 at 6:46
Ahhh okay, so kind of like a webservice call but for client side code – mcdev Commented Nov 11, 2021 at 6:58
@mcdev Unity never supported JavaScript at all ;) What you refer to is UnityScript and only used a syntax that was JavaScript like-ish but similar to the c# layer was basically just an interface to the underlying C++ engine. OP is asking about WebGL where you basically host your app embedded in an HTML page and can then indeed interact with the JavaScript of that page ;) – derHugo Commented Nov 11, 2021 at 7:15

Sorted by: Reset to default 6

tl;dr: This is how. c# doesn't need to be aware of the async and it should work.

I just made a little test using

Assets/Plugins/mylib.jslib

mergeInto(LibraryManager.library, {

    Foo: function () {
        window.alert("Foo!");
    },

    Boo: async function () {
        var s = function (ms) {
            return new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, ms));
        };
        await s(2000);
        window.alert("Boo!");
    }
});

and

Assets/Exmaple.cs

public class Example : MonoBehaviour
{
    [DllImport("__Internal")]
    private static extern void Foo();

    [DllImport("__Internal")]
    private static extern void Boo();

    void Awake()
    {
        Foo();
        Boo();
    }
}

And this is how it looks like without any issue

So without further information I would claim: You issue is not the async but something else.
