Sorry for the long question. I have a list of events which I get like this:
export class HomePageComponent implements OnInit {
events: FirebaseListObservable<EventModel[]>;
constructor(
private authService: AuthService,
private router: Router,
private db: AngularFireDatabase
) {
this.events = db.list('/events');
}
ngOnInit() {
}
}
Events are displayed like this:
<md-card *ngFor="let event of events | async">
<a [routerLink]="['event', event.slug]"><img class="event-img" src="http://lorempixel.com/30/30" />{{ event.name }}</a>
</md-card>
The event.component looks like this:
export class EventComponent implements OnInit {
event: Object;
name: String;
constructor(db: AngularFireDatabase, route: Router) {
const eventQuery = db.list('/events', {
query: {
orderByChild: 'slug',
equalTo: 'event-name'
}
}).subscribe(data => {
this.event = data[0];
});
}
ngOnInit() {
}
}
this.event is complete and the correct information is being queried. It looks like this:
Object {category: "category", description: "description", googleMap: "map", guests: Object, name: "Event name"…}
category: "category"
description: "description"
googleMap: "map"
guests: Object
name: "Event name"
slug: "event-name"
venue: "The venue"
$exists: function ()
$key: "-xxxxxxxx"
__proto__: Object
When I try to display the name {{event.name}} I get an error
ERROR TypeError: Cannot read property 'name' of undefined
at Object.eval [as updateRenderer]
Additional question:
Since the event information already exists in HomePageComponent, can it be sent to EventComponent and used to display the event? Maybe this will avoid an additional database query.
