[256] Does nuxtServerInit support asyn functions?

I am using token based authentication instead of session based. The auth server is different from the nuxt.js app. Is there a way to add async functions to nuxtServerInit function. Given below is the code which I tried. But looks like its not waiting for the Promise to return.

`nuxtServerInit ({commit}, {req}) {
    console.log('nuxtServer init');
    let token = req.cookies.token;
    let email = req.cookies.email;
    return axios.post('https://my-server/api-token-verify/', {token: token}).then((response) => {
        if (response.data.token) {
            console.log('Token is valid');
            commit('auth/setUser', {token, email});
            return Promise.resolve();
        } else {
            commit('auth/setUser', null);
            console.log('Invalid token');
            return Promise.reject();
        }
    }).catch((err) => {
        console.log('Invalid token');
        return Promise.reject();
    });
}`
