In my application, Asp web service returns JSON with object name called 'd' so I access that 'd' object the in the application as follows,
GetBranchOrRegionDataSourceSuccess: function (result, status, init) {
"use strict";
var regions = JSON.parse(result.d);
}
I called this function inside the Ajax success call.
Now the problem is I have Jquery function called searchLocations, Inside that function, I need to call this function. and need to pass the parameters.
I tried like this,
var jsonResult = JSON.stringify({'d':result});
this.GetBranchOrRegionDataSourceSuccess(jsonResult,"Success", true); //here I need to call the function
this is my complete function.
function searchName(prov,tree) {
var result = [];
let searchKey = new RegExp(prov, "i");
var objects = JSON.parse(json);
for (obj of objects) {
if (obj.Name.match(searchKey)) {
result.push(obj);
} else {
var toAdd = {"Id": obj.Id, "Name": obj.Name, "Branches": []};
for (branch of obj.Branches) {
if (branch.Name.match(searchKey)) {
toAdd.Branches.push(branch);
}
}
if (toAdd.Branches.length) {
result.push(toAdd);
}
}
}
var jsonResult = JSON.stringify({'d':result});
this.GetBranchOrRegionDataSourceSuccess(jsonResult,"Success", true); //here I need to call the function
}
But it makes error inside GetBranchOrRegionDataSourceSuccess on this line var regions = JSON.parse(result.d); How can I pass the result with 'd' object name
GetBranchOrRegionDataSourceSuccess is expecting an object with property d.
The d property value needs to be a JSON string (which it will parse).
You want
let jsonResult = { d: JSON.stringify(result) }
this.GetBranchOrRegionDataSourceSuccess(jsonResult, 'Success', true)

I've been looking around for a way to do this but can't seem to find anything, I have different configuration objects that I need to save as a text in variables for some processing later on, here is a sample:
object:
args.config.config = {
next: null,
final:[],
delimiter: '~', header: false,
step: function (row) {
var item = {
'line_code': row.data[0][0],
'order': row.data[0][1]
}
args.config.config.final.push(item);
},
complete: function (result) {
console.log('Reading data completed. Processing.');
return args.config.config.next(null, args.config.config.final);
},
error: function () {
console.log('There was an error parsing');
}'
}
I need to save this as a string, so something like:
args.config.config = "{object goes here}";
Without putting everything on one giant line or adding break line characters as this will be parsed later to be used in a config, and that will mess things up, any ideas?
UPDATE:
So changing them into text may not be the best solution, these configs will be stored in a mongo database, so it may take them as is (I have not tried it yet).
One of the other problems I was running into was that in the config object I had this:
final.push(item)
and
return next(null, final)
Which will be defined in another file using the config object:
other file:
exports.parse = function(args, next){//next is what I need to call in the config
var final = []; //this is the final referred to in the config object
....
Baby.parse(data, args.config)
}
So the return next(null, final) and final.push(result) have to refer the the var / function in the new file, but I have no idea how to get that to work, that't why I had to add a final array in the config object and a null next function, then assign it like so:
exports.parse = function(args, next){
args.config.next = next;
....
Baby.parse(data, args.config)
}
the object was calling it with the ugly line:
return args.config.config.next(null, args.config.config.final);
If anyone has a way around this, it would be much appreciated.
If you use JSON.stringify with a "replacer" function and
JSON.parse with a "reviver" function along with new Function(), you can do it:
I'm not sure I'm following the second (updated) question you have. Once the object is parsed back into an object, why can't you just initialize the next and final properties to valid objects before calling any of the object's methods? You can even add tests into that method that checks for the existence of final and next before returning anything.
var myObj = {
next: null,
final:[],
delimiter: '~',
header: false,
step: function (row) {
var item = {
'line_code': row.data[0][0],
'order': row.data[0][1]
};
args.config.config.final.push(item);
},
complete: function (result) {
console.log('Reading data completed. Processing.');
return args.config.config.next(null, args.config.config.final);
},
error: function () {
console.log('There was an error parsing');
}
};
// Stringify the object using a replacer function that will explicitly
// turn functions into strings
var myObjString = JSON.stringify(myObj, function(key, val) {
return (typeof val === 'function') ? '' + val : val;
});
// Now, parse back into an object with a reviver function to
// test for function values and create new functions from them:
var obj = JSON.parse(myObjString, function(key, val){
// Make sure the current value is not null (is a string)
// and that the first characters are "function"
if(typeof val === "string" && val.indexOf('function') === 0){
// Isolate the argument names list
var start = val.indexOf("(") + 1;
var end = val.indexOf(")");
var argListString = val.substring(start,end).split(",");
// Isolate the body of the function
var body = val.substr(val.indexOf("{"), val.length - end + 1);
// Construct a new function using the argument names and body
// stored in the string:
return new Function(argListString, body);
} else {
// Non-function property, just return the value
return val;
}
}
);
// Test the method:
obj.error(); // 'There was an error parsing' is written to console.
// Examine the object:
console.log(obj);
I am using node.js.
I have a function that can be called this way;
add_row({location:'L1', row_name:'r1', value:'18.4'});
I have a string like this;
var str_param = "location:'L1', row_name:'r1', value:'18.4'";
I tried to do something like this to keep my code simple;
add_row(str_param);
It did not work. What is a good way to use str_param to call add_row?
You could convert the string to an object that the function accepts.
function toObj(str) {
const a = str.split(/,.?/g);
return a.reduce((p, c) => {
const kv = c.replace(/'/g, '').split(':');
p[kv[0]] = kv[1];
return p;
}, {});
}
toObj(str); // { location: "L1", row_name: "r1", value: "18.4" }
DEMO
I think this may be your issue:
{location:'L1', row_name:'r1', value:'18.4'} // Object
var str_param = "location:'L1', row_name:'r1', value:'18.4'"; // Not object
var str_param = "{location:'L1', row_name:'r1', value:'18.4'}"; // Object String
I do not use Node JS but just taking a shot in dark. If not you could just make function like:
function addRow(pLocation, pRowName, pValue) {
var row = {
location: pLocation,
row_name: pRowName,
value: pValue
}
// Logic ....
}
If that does not work try using Object string and look at function ParseJSON I believe it's called.

JavaScript closure inside loops – simple practical example
(44 answers)
Closed 9 years ago.
This is a simplified code that runs on Node.js crawler and it gets all data.
But how do I insert inside the "callback": function value of var "i" from cycle for(var i=0... When I'm adding name: datas[i].name it returns an error:
TypeError: Cannot read property 'undefined' of undefined
var Crawler = require("crawler").Crawler;
var crawler = new Crawler;
var datas = [
{name: 'John', url: 'john025'},
{name: 'Jim', url: 'jim04567'}
];
function crauler(done) {
for (var i = 0; i < datas.length; i++) {
var link = 'http://somesite.com/' + datas[i].url;
crawler.queue([{
"uri": link,
// inside this func
"callback": function (error, result, $, datas, i) {
var arr = $('.blogpost').map(function (index) {
var str = $(this).attr('href');
var object = {
numb: str,
name: datas[i].name
};
return obj;
}).get().join(',');
done(arr);
} }]) }; };
crauler (function (arr) {
console.log(arr);
});
You can't pass datas and i into callback functions like this. What arguments that the callback functions will be called with are up to the caller, you don't have the control of it.
You're seeing "TypeError: Cannot read property 'undefined' of undefined" because you want your callback function to have datas and i as parameters; but the caller will call the callback with the first 3 arguments only [crawler callback reference], so the datas and i are undefined.
Therefore, you should remove the datas and i from in line:
"callback": function (error, result, $, datas, i) {
Because datas is defined in the outer scope of the callback function, the callback can access datas without any special treatment. For the variable i, it's a little bit tricky as mentioned in other answers, so you need to create a closure for it.
So, your callback function definition should be something looks like the following:
"callback": (function(i) { // create closure for i
return function (error, result, $) { // no more datas and i here
var arr = $('.blogpost').map(function (index) {
var str = $(this).attr('href');
var object = {
numb: str,
name: datas[i].name // access datas as it
};
return obj;
}).get().join(',');
done(arr);
}
})(i)
You're trying to create a closure around i inside of a loop which is causing you problems. This answer should help you:

You need a closure to capture the values, this is one way to solve the problem. Read up on closures.

function queue(link, i) {
crawler.queue([{

var arr = $('.blogpost').map(function (index) {
var str = $(this).attr('href');
var object = {

I have a json object retrieved from server in my $(document).ready(...); that has an string that I would like to resolve to a function also defined within $(document).ready(...); so, for example:
$(document).ready(function{
$.getJSON(/*blah*/,function(data){/*more blah*/});
function doAdd(left,right) {
return left+right;
}
function doSub(left,right) {
return left-right;
}
});
with json string:
{"doAdd":{"left":10,"right":20}}
One way I thought about was creating an associative array of the function before loading the json:
var assocArray=...;
assocArray['doAdd'] = doAdd;
assocArray['doSub'] = doSub;
Using eval or window[](); are no good as the function may not be called for some time, basically I want to link/resolve but not execute yet.
Change your JSON to
{method: "doAdd", parameters : {"left":10,"right":20}}
Then do
var method = eval(json.method);
// This doesn't call it. Just gets the pointer
Or (haven't tried this)
var method = this[json.method]
How about something like this?
$(function(){
// Function to be called at later date
var ressolvedFunc = null;
// Ajax call
$.getJSON(/*blah*/,function(data){
// Generate one function from another
ressolvedFunc = (function(data) {
var innerFunc;
var left = data.left;
var right = data.right;
// Detect action
for (action in data) {
if (action == "doAdd")
innerFunc = function() {
return left + right;
};
else
innerFunc = function() {
return left - right;
};
}
return innerFunc;
})(data);
});
});
The anonymous function returns fresh function, with the new values stored within the enclosure. This should allow you to call the function at later date with the data previously retrieved from the GET request.

try this:
var doX = (function() {
var
data = [],
getDo = function(action) {
for(var d in data) {
if (data[d][action]) {
return data[d];
}
}
return null;
};
return {
set: function(sdata) {
data.push(sdata);
},
doAdd: function() {
var add = getDo("doAdd");
if (!add)
return 0;
return add.doAdd.left + add.doAdd.right;
},
doSub: function() {
var sub = getDo("doSub");
if (!sub)
return 0;
return sub.doAdd.left + sub.doAdd.right;
}
};
})();
$(document).ready(function{
$.getJSON(/*blah*/,function(data){ doX.set(data); });
});
I have some simple javascript that as far as i can tell should work but doesn't.
The code is below
var presenter = new Practicum.Web.TEI.StudentPlacement2009.CreateLetter_class(); //this is a class generated by Ajax.Net
function GetLetters() {
var GetLettersParams = new Object();
GetLettersParams.TemplateType = $('#LetterTypes').val();
var letters = ajaxCall(presenter.GetLetters, GetLettersParams);
createOptions('Templates', letters, 'Id', 'Name', true);
}
function ajaxCall(ajaxMethod, parameters) {
var response = ajaxMethod.call(parameters); //fails here with the message in
if (response.error != null) {
alert('An error has occured\r\n' + response.error.Message);
return;
}
return response.value;
}
this is part of the class Ajax.Net produces.
Practicum.Web.TEI.StudentPlacement2009.CreateLetter_class = function() {};
Object.extend(Practicum.Web.TEI.StudentPlacement2009.CreateLetter_class.prototype, Object.extend(new AjaxPro.AjaxClass(), {
GetLetterTypes: function() {
return this.invoke("GetLetterTypes", {}, this.GetLetterTypes.getArguments().slice(0));
},
GetDegrees: function() {
return this.invoke("GetDegrees", {}, this.GetDegrees.getArguments().slice(0));
},
GetLetters: function(getLettersParams) {
return this.invoke("GetLetters", {"getLettersParams":getLettersParams}, this.GetLetters.getArguments().slice(1));
} ...
Any help would be much appriciated;

The first parameter that needs to be passed to Function.call() is the object on which the function is called. Then follow the function parameters as separate values:
func.call(someobj, param1, param2, ...);
To call a function with an array of arguments you should use apply(). apply() also takes the object for which the method should be called as first parameter:
func.apply(someobj, params);
So in your case it would look something like this:
function ajaxCall(ajaxMethod, obj, parameters) {
var response = ajaxMethod.call(obj, parameters);
// ...
}
var letters = ajaxCall(presenter.GetLetters, presenter, GetLettersParams);
You need to pass an object to the first argument of the call method e.g.:
ajaxMethod.call(presenter, parameters);
See http://www.webreference.com/js/column26/call.html
Supertux is right. You could try this to make sure the context is set for "call":
function GetLetters() {
var GetLettersParams = new Object();
GetLettersParams.TemplateType = $('#LetterTypes').val();
var letters = ajaxCall(presenter.GetLetters, presenter, GetLettersParams);
createOptions('Templates', letters, 'Id', 'Name', true);
}
function ajaxCall(ajaxMethod, context, parameters) {
var response = ajaxMethod.call(context, parameters); //Call requires a context
if (response.error != null) {
alert('An error has occured\r\n' + response.error.Message);
return;
}
return response.value;
}
Or you could simplify things quite a bit by not using ajaxCall:
function GetLetters() {
var GetLettersParams = {
TemplateType: $('#LetterTypes').val()
},
response = presenter.GetLetters(GetLettersParams);
if (response.error != null) {
alert('An error has occured\r\n' + response.error.Message);
return;
}
createOptions('Templates', response.value, 'Id', 'Name', true);
}
