Another CoffeeScript Error
Hey, I am Just Learning CoffeeScript and I Keep getting Errors. Here is my code:
Db = require('./lib/mongodb').Db
ObjectID = require('./lib/mongodb').ObjectID
Server = require('./lib/mongodb').Server
class UserDataProvider
constructor = (host,port)->
this.db = new Db( 'test' , new Server(host ,port,{}))
getCollection = (callback) ->
this.db.collection 'data',(error,data)->
if error then callback(error)
else callback(data)
findAll = (callback) ->
this.getCollection (error,data)->
if error then callback error
else
data.find (error, cursor) ->
if error then callback error
else
cursor.toArray (error, results)->
if error then callback error
else callback(null,results)
findById = (id,callback)->
this.getCollection (error, data)->
if error then callback error
else
data.findOne { _id: id} , (error, result)->
if error then callback error
else callback(null, result)
save = (data, callback)->
this.getCollection (error, collection)->
if error then callback error
else
if typeof(data.length) is "undefined"
then data = [data]
collection.insert data ()->
callback null, data
exports.UserDataProvider = UserDataProvider
When I try to use userdataprovider.save( ?? BLAH BLAH BLAH ??) // I already instantiated it.
I get this error:
TypeError: Object #<UserDataProvider> has no method 'save'

If it matters, I am using Expressjs and Nodejs with Native MongoDB Driver
The problem is that you're using =
instead of :
to define instance-level methods.
CoffeeScript's class
construct is an odd hybrid of object and function. Code within the class body runs immediately—for instance,
class UserDataProvider
a = 'foo'
console.log a
prints foo
. But when you use the object syntax key: value
, you define properties of the prototype (except in the case of the special keyword constructor
):
class UserDataProvider
a: 'foo'
(new UserDataProvider).a # 'foo'
This might seem odd, but it allows you to run one-time static initialization code which can be useful, including private variables that can only be seen by methods defined within the class:
class UserDataProvider
secretPassword = Math.random()
getHash: -> hash(secretPassword)
Long story short: Use :
instead of =
when defining instance properties. (For static properties, @a = b
and @a: b
are equivalent; both set UserDataProvider.a
to b
.)
