While working on my Ionic project, I encountered an error in Angular when trying to fetch data from an API using HttpClient. The error message that popped up was 'Property 'name' does not exist on type '{}'.'. Below is the code snippet of the component and the corresponding provider method:
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { IonicPage, NavController, NavParams } from 'ionic-angular';
import { Storage } from '@ionic/storage';
export class CreerDiscussionPage {
discussion: Discussion;
constructor(
public navCtrl: NavController,
public navParams: NavParams,
public rfcAPI: RfcApiProvider,
public discussionProvider: DiscussionProvider
) {
this.rfcAPI = rfcAPI;
this.discussionProvider = discussionProvider;
this.discussion = new Discussion();
}
getDiscussion() {
this.rfcAPI.getDiscussion()
.then(data => {
// Error raised at this point: Property 'name' does not exist on type '{}'.
console.log(data.name);
});
}
}
...
I am looking for a solution to define the type of the 'data' variable returned by HttpClient or any alternative way to resolve this issue. Can you offer any suggestions?
