nameFinder returns empty array about node-opennlp HOT 6 CLOSED

Is it because there are no recognized names in what I'm inputting?

Possibly. Please post the sentence your using here.

Is this example working for you?

var sentence = 'Pierre Vinken , 61 years old , will join the board as a nonexecutive director Nov. 29 .';
var nameFinder = new openNLP().nameFinder;
nameFinder.find(sentence, function(err, results) {
    console.log(results)
});

Hello, same issue here, am on a windows 7 x64 OS, name finder returns [{}] with your example sentence. the err parameter is undefined, so not an error.

@hussainb @franciskim Ok i think I know whats going on. Java is returning its own dataType. You can do console.log(results.toString()) on the results and you ll get your response your looking for.

@mbejda , Yes, doing .toString() works, I now get [0..2) person in the console. I thought I might get the words "Pierre Vinken". or I might have to read the openNLP docs.

Strange, I thought I had not changed anything - but it is working now, even without .toString() I must have reinstalled nodejs on my Mac OS X, perhaps a version mismatch? Closing the issue.

Hello @mbejda, i'm having the same issue as @hussainb. same windows version, same result for with and without toString(). Any solutions on this?
