angular - How to pause a function until a promise is returned? -

in service, using http data return promise.

i have function this

onclick(id:number){   this.myservice.getsomedata(id).then(response => this.myobject=response);   //do myobject } 

however, need wait service return data before can continue. cannot call service earlier because depends on option user clicked.

i thinking wrap in settimeout

onclick(id:number){   settimeout(() => {     this.myservice.getsomedata(id).then(response => this.myobject=response);   }, 1000);   //do myobject } 

but 1 second guess , might wasting time or not have enough time. there way pause function until service returns information, ideally timeout after 5 seconds (and if happens, have execute handling code)? during time, user should not able anything.
