方法链返回未定义

Question

I have the following javascript class

var a = function () {
    this.data = {};
};

a.prototype.parseString = function (string) {
    this.data = string.split(',');
}

a.prototype.performOperationB = function () {
    this.iPo = _.map(this.data, function () {
        if (item.indexOf('ip') > -1) {
            return item;
        }
    });
}

a.prototype.save = function (string) {
    this.parseString(string)
        .performOperationB()
        // some other chained methods
}
var b = new a();

b.save(string);

would return TypeError: Cannot read property 'performOperationB' of undefined

Is it possible to chain the prototype methods one after another inside another method ?

Answer 1

Return this from

a.prototype.parseString = function(string) {
   this.data  = string.split(',');
   return this;
}

because now method returns undefined

 var a = function () { this.data = {}; }; a.prototype.parseString = function (string) { this.data = string.split(','); return this; } a.prototype.performOperationB = function () { this.iPo = _.map(this.data, function (item) { if (item.indexOf('ip') > -1) { return item; } }); } a.prototype.save = function (string) { this.parseString(string) .performOperationB() } var b = new a(); b.save('string');
