Having issues to get code block to log to console
Does not work. Nothing is logged to console
var data = {"_id": "615fc3db8b6a6311aa3295ca", "isComplete": false, "remindTime": {"date": "2021-10-08", "time": "12:08:40 am"}, "subtitle": "Fdfdff", "title": "Dfdf"}
if (data.length > 0) {
console.log('my data', data);
}
WHAT WORKS:
var data = {"_id": "615fc3db8b6a6311aa3295ca", "isComplete": false, "remindTime": {"date": "2021-10-08", "time": "12:08:40 am"}, "subtitle": "Fdfdff", "title": "Dfdf"}
if (data.title) {
console.log('my data', data);
}
Not sure what's going wrong
You are testing for a length property on an plain js object that you have not explicitly placed a length property on.
Testing for a length seems like you're expecting it to be an array.
It would be similar to running this in the console, you'll get undefined.
({}).length
If you'd like to log it if it is an object:
if (data) {
console.log('my data', data);
}
If you'd like to log it if it has any properties on it:
if (Object.keys(data).length) {
console.log('my data', data);
}
in your case - data is not an array, it is an object.
You got to use Object.keys(data).length to find no of keys in an object.

Object does not have any length property. If you want to check the existence of the object, just write this:
if (data) {
// executable code
}
it will check if the object has any property or not.
