无法读取未定义的属性，Typescript

Question

I'm having issues with creating a class function with optional parameters. I'm plagued with the following error and since I'm a new comer to typescript I'm not really sure as to what I have to change in my code to fix it. This code works perfectly fine in an earlier project written in JS only.

It specifically highlights the getRequestOptions, when I go check it in base-service.ts in the browser error.

And my code

base-service.ts

    import axios from '@/plugins/axios'

    export default class BaseService {
    getRequestOptions(url:any, method:any, data?:any, params?:any , customHeaders?:any) {
      const headers = {
        ...customHeaders
      }

      return {
        url:url,
        method:method,
        data: data,
        params: params,
        headers: headers,
      }
    }

    async request(method:any, url:any, data?:any, params?:any, headers?:any) {
        console.log(method,url,data,params,headers)

        const options = this.getRequestOptions(method, url, data, params, headers)

        try {
            console.log(options)
            const response = await axios(options)
            console.log("Getting response from api")
            console.log(response)
            if (response.status === 200) {
                return response.data
            }
        } catch (error) {
            console.log(error)
        }
    }
}

locales-service.ts

import BaseService from '../base-service'
//?Import models in the future
//import {  } from '@/common/models'

class LocaleServ extends BaseService {
    async getLocales() {
        console.log("getting locales")

        let result = await super.request(
                'get',
                '/Api/GetLocales/'
                )
        
        console.log(result)
        return result
    }
}

export const LocaleService = new LocaleServ()

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Edit:

<script lang="ts">
import { ref } from 'vue'
import { defineComponent } from 'vue'
import CountryFlag from 'vue-country-flag-next'
import { LocaleService } from '@/services'

export default defineComponent({
    name: 'LocaleSelector',
    components: {
        CountryFlag
    },

    setup () {
        const { getLocales } = LocaleService
        const data = getLocales()

        return {
            data:data
    }
  }
})
</script>

And then in the component I call it with {{data}}

Answer 1

The issue lied in the way I called the destructured getLocales() method from LocaleService in locale-service.vue

I noticed that this was undefined after attaching a debugger. According to this article , destructuring it caused it to lose it's context. Therefore when I called getLocales() in base-service.ts, this was undefined .

Simple work around to fix the, caused due to inexperience, problem was to turn.

const { getLocales } = LocaleService
    const data = getLocales()

into

const data = LocaleService.getLocales()
