I am trying to loop through an object to get a value based on the key in the object. I am trying to use a variable to work through the loop/object. If I set the value ahead of time I get the data. If I try to set the value with a variable defined by an iteration through "i" I get an undefined error. Any thoughts. The dashed are for pug. The data is coming from a Sails.js query.
If I set the "0" ahead of time. I get data.
-var i=0;
-for (var key of Object.keys(thereviews.schoolreviews[0])) {
p= key + ": " + thereviews.schoolreviews[0].RID
-i++
-}
If I change the loop to
-var i=0;
-for (var key of Object.keys(thereviews.schoolreviews[i])) {
p= key + ": " + thereviews.schoolreviews[i].RID
-i++
-}
I get this error:
TypeError: /Users/mnelson/Documents/Personal/My Design Musings/sails/MIE Sails/views/reviews/reviews.pug:8

You need an outer loop because the
for()
is just iterating over the object's keys and having thei++
inside of thefor()
could cause an index out of range exception. Also, I removed the hardcodedRID
and am using the[key]
accessor in its place which is safer, incase the data is malformed.
