Trying to summon tnt at a player's feet when they eat a specific food.
I'm having trouble with the query.position syntax for the player and im not sure it's even applicable in this situation

Current code in foodSpawnTnt.js

import {
    world,
    system
} from "@minecraft/server";

world.afterEvents.itemCompleteUse.subscribe(event => {
    if (event.itemStack.typeId === "minecraft:bread") {
        const p = event.source;
        const d = p.dimension;
        (async () => {
            //This is to test functionality
            await d.runCommandAsync("effect " + p.name + " invisibility 1 1 true");
            //I want to query the player's position and replace the ~ ~ ~ with that attained position
            await d.runCommandAsync("summon tnt ~ ~ ~")
        })();
        world.sendMessage("food eaten");
    }
});

// I want to query the player's position and replace the ~ ~ ~ with that attained position
const playerPosition = await d.runCommandAsync(execute in ${p.name} run tp ${p.name} ~ ~ ~);
const [x, y, z] = playerPosition.split(" ");

This threw an error
[Scripting][error]-Plugin [ScriptTest - 1.0.0] - [eatSpawnTnt.js] ran with error:[SyntaxError: expecting ',' at eatSpawnTnt.js:12]

The script:

    world,
    system
} from "@minecraft/server";

world.afterEvents.itemCompleteUse.subscribe(event => {
    if (event.itemStack.typeId === "minecraft:bread") {
        const p = event.source;
        const d = p.dimension;
        (async () => {
            await d.runCommandAsync(effect ${p.name} invisibility 1 1 true);
            const playerPosition = await d.runCommandAsync(execute in ${p.name} run tp ${p.name} ~ ~ ~);
            const [x, y, z] = playerPosition.split(" ");
            await d.runCommandAsync(summon tnt ${x} ${y} ${z});
        })();
        world.sendMessage("food eaten");
    }
});```

For anyone who comes across this, the final, working, code:

    world,
    system
} from "@minecraft/server";

world.afterEvents.itemCompleteUse.subscribe(event => {
    if (event.itemStack.typeId === "minecraft:bread") {
        const p = event.source;
        const d = p.dimension;
        //Makes player temporarily invisible
        p.addEffect("invisibility",40,{amplifier:1,showParticles:true})
        //Summons tnt on player who ate the food
        d.spawnEntity("minecraft:tnt", p.location)
    }
});```

considering I cobbled this together from some basic python knowledge and staying up till' midnight scouring forum posts on this stuff, I don't really know what im doing with JS

#

is it even necessary to use the async at all here?
