call multiple methods in client side controller synchronously

Hi

I want to call multiple methods in client side controller synchronously i.e. in a particular sequence so that I can use the response from one in second one and so on.

How can I achieve this in lightning client side components?

Utilize call backs to guarantee the first method is finished, before calling the second method, and so on.  Here's an example:
  
({
    "callAllActions" : function(cmp){
        var action1 = cmp.get("c.action1");
        var action2 = cmp.get("c.action2");
        var action3 = cmp.get("c.action3");

        action1.setCallback(this, function(response) {
            if (state === "SUCCESS") {
                $A.enqueueAction(action2);
           }
        }
       
        action2.setCallback(this, function(response) {
            if (state === "SUCCESS") {
                $A.enqueueAction(action3);
           }
        }

        action3.setCallback(this, function(response) {
            if (state === "SUCCESS") {
               // do something
           }
        }
        $A.enqueueAction(action);
    }
}
