Is there a way to create promises from within cloud code?
I'm working with sdk queries which return promises, but then I need to work with the data. This creates a big mess of callbacks in my functions mixed with the promises I'm getting from the sdk library. Ultimately, I've run into a timing issue which is a bear to figure out now!

Hello Phil,
At the moment it is not possible to construct your own promises in the Cloud Code. We are evaluating the possibility to incorporate a library that will greatly facilitate the creation and execution of asynchronous logic in the cloud code layer.
Regarding the large number of callbacks. At the moment you can declare your functions in the current scope and return a promise from them. Then, chain the promises until the task is resolved to avoid the use of callbacks. Please, find my answer to a similar question here.
Let me know if I may be of any further assistance.

Hello,
This is a quick announcement that you can now create your own promises in the Cloud Code for Data and Cloud Functions using the integrated RSVP library. In addition, the Underscore utility is also available for use in the Cloud Code.
