how to return response of axios in return

I want to return the response of axios but always the response that returned is undefined:

wallet.registerUser=function(data){
axios.post('http://localhost:8080/register',{
phone:data.phone,
password:data.password,
email:data.email
}).then(response =>{
  return response.data.message;
  console.log(response.data.message);
}).catch(err =>{
  console.log(err);
})
}

console.log(wallet.registerUser(data));

The console always logs as undefined. Is their any way returning this response.

console.log won't wait for the function to fully complete before logging it. This means that you will have to make wallet.registerUser asynchronous, there are two main ways to do this:

Callback - this is when you pass a function as a parameter into your existing function which will be executed once your axios call has finished. Here is how it would work with your code:

wallet.registerUser=function(data, callback){
  axios.post('http://localhost:8080/register',{
    phone:data.phone,
    password:data.password,
    email:data.email
  }).then(response =>{
    callback(response.data.message);
    console.log(response.data.message);
  }).catch(err =>{
    console.log(err);
  })
}

wallet.registerUser(data, function(response) {
  console.log(response)
});

Promise - The easiest way to do this is to put async in front of your function name. This will make anything returned from the function return in the form of a promise. This is how it would work in your code:

 wallet.registerUser=async function(data){
  axios.post('http://localhost:8080/register',{
    phone:data.phone,
    password:data.password,
    email:data.email
  }).then(response =>{
    return response.data.message;
    console.log(response.data.message);
  }).catch(err =>{
    console.log(err);
  })
}

wallet.registerUser(data).then(function(response) {
  console.log(response);
});

I used async and await methods and wrapped my axios call and function calling the axios call in these methods. I returned axios value as well as returned response object within it. I have shared the snippet in the below link.
