Disclaimer- Apologies if the title is ambiguous/the question itself is silly. I'm fairly new to Angular and JavaScript
I have a function in a service which I'm trying to call inside a JavaScript eventListener function, like this:
import { WebSocketService } from '../web-socket.service';
@Component({
selector: 'app-board',
templateUrl: './board.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./board.component.css']
})
export class BoardComponent implements OnInit, OnDestroy {
constructor(private webSocketService: WebSocketService) { }
ngOnInit() {
let cells = document.querySelectorAll('.cell');
for (let i = 0; i < cells.length; i++) {
cells[i].addEventListener('click', this.cellClicked);
}
}
cellClicked(clickedCellEvent) {
console.log(this.webSocketService.printSomething());
}
}
When I trigger the event from front-end(and thereby calling the 'cellClicked' function), I'm getting the following error:
core.js:6014 ERROR TypeError: Cannot read property 'printSomething' of undefined
Edit 1: Adding Service Definition below:
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import * as io from 'socket.io-client';
import { Observable } from 'rxjs';
import { map } from 'rxjs/operators';
import { HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';
@Injectable({
providedIn: 'root'
})
export class WebSocketService {
printSomething() {
return "Called a function inside webSocketService!";
}
}
You need to bind
the cellClicked
method to this
current context
import { WebSocketService } from '../web-socket.service';
@Component({
selector: 'app-board',
templateUrl: './board.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./board.component.css']
})
export class BoardComponent implements OnInit, OnDestroy {
constructor(private webSocketService: WebSocketService) { }
ngOnInit() {
let cells = document.querySelectorAll('.cell');
for (let i = 0; i < cells.length; i++) {
cells[i].addEventListener('click', this.cellClicked.bind(this);
}
}
cellClicked(clickedCellEvent) {
console.log(this.webSocketService.printSomething());
}
}
