Question

Var async = require('async'); exports.index = function(req, res) {

async.parallel({
book_count: function(callback) {
Book.countDocuments({}, callback); // Pass an empty object as match condition to find all documents of this collection
},
book_instance_count: function(callback) {
BookInstance.countDocuments({}, callback);
},
book_instance_available_count: function(callback) {
BookInstance.countDocuments({status:'Available'}, callback);
},
author_count: function(callback) {
Author.countDocuments({}, callback);
},
genre_count: function(callback) {
Genre.countDocuments({}, callback);
}
}, function(err, results) {
res.render('index', { title: 'Local Library Home', error: err, data: results });
});
};
Что это за аргумент "callback" и почему он никак не используеться?
