Download an array of files and wait until they are done

I'm a python guy, so JS's asynchronous nature is odd to me and it seems like doing something relatively simple requires some gymnastics.I have an array of filenames on a remote server. I want to download each of these files, then push to an array whether or not it was successful.The included modules are: http://ift.tt/2lLUNve``` var path = require('path'); var download = require('download-to-file'); var async = require('async');var failed = []; var success = [];async.each(filename_array, function(filename){ remote_path = 'http://ift.tt/2mFa4Cx'+filename; local_path = '/webdownloads/'+filename; download(remote_path, local_path, function(err){ if(err){ failed.push(filename); } else { success.push(filename); } }); });console.log(failed) console.log(success) ```The files download correctly, but the output is:[] []How can I pull this off? I need to wait until all of the files have either downloaded or failed before the next step can be initiated, but the script doesn't wait for the downloads.
