I'm stuck with this Problem and couldn't find an answer. I wrote the following Function in Cloud Code.
function getSoccerData()
{
console.log("Entering getSoccerData");
var promise = Parse.Cloud.httpRequest({
url: 'http://www.openligadb.de/api/getmatchdata/bl1/2015/'
}).then(function(httpResponse) {
console.log("Just a Log: " + JSON.parse(httpResponse.buffer)[1].Team1.TeamName);
return JSON.parse(httpResponse.buffer);
});
return promise;
}
I hope I did use Promises the right way here.
Now I assign the function to a variable in my background job like this.
Parse.Cloud.job("updateSoccerData2", function (request, response) {
var matchArray
matchArray = getSoccerData().then(function() {
console.log("TestLog: " + matchArray[1].Team1.TeamName);
response.success("Success!");
}, function(error) {
response.error(error.message);
});
});
When I try to run this I get the following Log output
E2016-01-28T16:28:55.501Z]v412 Ran job updateSoccerData2 with:
Input: {} Result: TypeError: Cannot read property 'Team1' of undefined at e. (_other/nunutest.js:28:48) at e.i (Parse.js:14:27703) at e.a.value (Parse.js:14:27063) at e.i (Parse.js:14:27830) at e.a.value (Parse.js:14:27063) at Object.

So the it seems that the asynchronous function ist not ready when the assignment is made. Can anybody help? Thank you!
