I have a javascript code that works perfectly:
class myController {
constructor () {
this.language = 'english'
}
}
BUT when I try to do the same with Typescript
export default class myController {
constructor () {
this.language = 'english'
}
}
It gives me the following error:
Property 'language' does not exist on type 'myController'.ts(2339)
Why exactly this happen when trying to create a property for myController?
What would be the right way to do so?
Because you are trying to set a property which does not exist in the class as it says, declare it somewhere in the class before you try set it, i.e:
export default class myController {
private language: string;
constructor () {
this.language = 'english'
}
}
It needs to be declared as a Property on the type (typically before the constructor):
export default class myController {
language: string;
constructor () {
this.language = 'english'
}
}
