Rails - StimulusJS: how to set target value from within setTimeout? - ruby-on-rails

Question

In my Rails-Stimulus controller, I fetch data in a loop from a function in which I've setTimeout. How do I set the target value from within the setTimeout?
My form partial
<%= text_field_tag :first_date, "Select Date One", data: {controller: 'flatpickr'} %>
<div data-controller="hist">
<div data-hist-target="one"></div>
<button class="bg-blue-500 hover:bg-blue-700 text-white font-bold py-2 px-4 border border-blue-700 rounded"
data-action='hist#get_history'>
Hist
</button>
</div>
My controller
import { Controller } from "#hotwired/stimulus"
export default class extends Controller {
static targets = [ "one" ]
connect() {
}
get_date_history(aDate) {
setTimeout(function() {
var history = new Array()
let month = aDate.slice(5,7)
let date = aDate.slice(8,10)
let url = 'http://numbersapi.com/' + month + '/' + date + '/date'
for (let step = 0; step < 5; step++) {
fetch(url)
.then(response => response.text())
.then(function(data) {
history.push(data)
})
.catch(err => console.log('Request Failed', err)) // Catch errors
}
// can we set oneTarget value here? how?
}, 2500)
}
get_history() {
var date = document.getElementById("first_date").value
this.get_date_history(date)
}
}
