Passing object from getJSON to outside function?





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}

I'm trying to pass the object "value" to the "hello()" function, but I get the following error:




SyntaxError: missing ] after element list note: [ opened at line 1,
column 6




My code:



$(document).ready(function(){
$.getJSON("http://localhost:8080/api/users/all", function(result){
$.each(result, function(key,value) {
$("#data").append(
'<li class="list-group-item">' +
value.name +
'<a class="btn btn-light float-right" onclick="hello(' + value + ')" role="button">View Euclidean</a>' +
'<a class="btn btn-dark float-right mr-1 text-light" role="button">View Recommendations</a>' +
'</li>');
});
});
});

function hello(value) {
console.log("hello" + value.name);
}


Anything I'm doing wrong here?

  • If value is an object, if you are going to stick with inline bindings like that (you should really reconsider), I would suggest you JSON.stringify(value) for the onclick. You're creating a text string. There are no objects in a text string.

  • @Taplar The object just contains and id and a name. Let's say ID: 1, Name: 'Fred'.

    @Lithicas: You'd have to surround the argument in quotes. The contents of onclick needs to be valid JS, embedded in the HTML attribute.

You are trying to append an object to a string:



'<a class="btn btn-light float-right" onclick="hello(' + value + ')" role="button">View Euclidean</a>'


...which causes toString to be called on the object, which usually converts to:



[Object object]


...hence the syntax error, because your onclick will now be:



hello([Object object])


...which is a syntax error.



You probably meant to do + JSON.stringify(value) +.



An even better approach would be to not create the click handler through string manipulation:



const euclideanLink = $('<a class="btn btn-light float-right" role="button">View Euclidean</a>');
euclideanLink.click(e => {
e.preventDefault();
hello(value.name);
return false;
});
const recommendsLink = $('<a class="btn btn-dark float-right mr-1 text-light" role="button">View Recommendations</a>');

const listItem = $('<li class="list-group-item"/>');
listItem.append(value.name, euclideanLink, recommendsLink);

$("#data").append(listItem);

I would highly suggest you separate your markup from your javascript, and dynamically bind your event handler to the link, so you don't have to worry about converting it to a string or anything.






//$(document).ready(function() {
// $.getJSON("http://localhost:8080/api/users/all", function(result) {

//fake out some results so we can see the logic in action
var result = [
{ id: 1, name: 'Jane' },
{ id: 2, name: 'Jim' }
];

//get the html from the template on the page so we don't have to put
//it in the script
var userTemplate = $('#userTemplate').html();

$('#data').append(
//create an array of all the elements to add to the data
//doing this lets us append once, reducing the number of times we
//touch the DOM
$.map(result, function(value){
//replace the {{name}} in the template with our real name
var $newUser = $(userTemplate.replace(/{{name}}/, value.name));

//find the first link and bind the click handler to it
$newUser.find('.view-euclidean').on('click', function(){
hello(value);
});

return $newUser;
})
);
// });
//});

function hello(value) {
console.log("hello" + value.name);
}

        I would highly suggest you separate your markup from your javascript, and dynamically bind your event handler to the link, so you don't have to worry about converting it to a string or anything.






        //$(document).ready(function() {
        // $.getJSON("http://localhost:8080/api/users/all", function(result) {

        //fake out some results so we can see the logic in action
        var result = [
        { id: 1, name: 'Jane' },
        { id: 2, name: 'Jim' }
        ];

        //get the html from the template on the page so we don't have to put
        //it in the script
        var userTemplate = $('#userTemplate').html();

        $('#data').append(
        //create an array of all the elements to add to the data
        //doing this lets us append once, reducing the number of times we
        //touch the DOM
        $.map(result, function(value){
        //replace the {{name}} in the template with our real name
        var $newUser = $(userTemplate.replace(/{{name}}/, value.name));

        //find the first link and bind the click handler to it
        $newUser.find('.view-euclidean').on('click', function(){
        hello(value);
        });

        return $newUser;
        })
        );
        // });
        //});

        function hello(value) {
        console.log("hello" + value.name);
        }

        <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
