Attempting to use async and await with Node WP API Client

node-wpapi-w-async.js

// What I'm calling in my router
await Page.render( slug );
Gallery.render();


// The Page.render() code
export default class Page {

    /**
     * render - Display pages on the Page
     *
     * @param  {String} slug The slug of the page to display
     */
    static render( slug ) {

        return new Promise( resolve => {

            config.wp.pages()
                .slug( slug )
                .embed()
                .perPage( 1 )
                .then( pages => {
                    if ( pages[ 0 ] ) {
                        Helpers.renderContent( pages[ 0 ] );
                    } else {
                        Helpers.renderContent( config.page404 );
                    }
                    resolve();
                } )
                .catch( err => {
                    console.log( `Error: ${err}` );
                } );
          
        } );

    }

}

The above code works, but I am wondering if the return new Promise is necessary since .pages() is already a promise. Couldn't seem to get it working without the extra Promise wrapper. Was wondering if you had any advice on how to clean up?

This is interesting, and may be related to the fact that .then() is a method that we define manually, and not an actual promise method itself -- I'd try putting a .get() before the .then(), to start, and if that doesn't work maybe there's a workaround. I'll look into it
