Support Question: ContactX.firstName is null; iOS about cordova-plugin-contacts-x HOT 8 CLOSED

i created one here : https://github.com/Sunny41/contactsx-example
it has a simple button on the homepage and the same code I posted above in the chooseContact() method :)

from cordova-plugin-contacts-x.

Please post the full code which is related to this including the pick method and stuff

from cordova-plugin-contacts-x.

import ContactsX from 'cordova-plugin-contacts-x'
...

    ContactsX.requestPermission(function (success) {

      ContactsX.pick(function (contact) {

        console.log(success);

        console.log(contact);

        console.log(contact.firstName);

        const contactInfo = contact;

        console.log(contactInfo);

        this.name = contactInfo.firstName;

        ...

      }, function (error) {

        console.log(error);

      });

    }, function (error) {

      console.log(error);

    });

  }```

from cordova-plugin-contacts-x.

So the error happens here: this.name = contactInfo.firstName;?

But the line before is printing the contact correctly with firstName?

from cordova-plugin-contacts-x.

exactly :)
I tried to do that without using a new variable and the same error occurs...
tried that with ios 12 on an iphone 5 and with the simulator of an iphone 12 with ios 14

That doesn't make sense 🤯 pls create a small reproducable repo

from cordova-plugin-contacts-x.

Hi there again,
I tested it on the android emulator with pixel XL and on my physical device samsung galaxy s10 with android 11.

cordova.js:314 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'name' of null at main.js:6755 at Object.callbackFromNative (cordova.js:295) at <anonymous>:1:9

from cordova-plugin-contacts-x.

Hey there. Sorry for the late response.

I just checkout your Repo. The problem is not that firstName is null, the problem is that there is no variable name, so this.name can't work.

And even if there was a class variable called name it may not work. Please read this: https://logicmason.com/2019/how-to-access-this-from-inside-a-callback/
