JS Class binding class variables












1















I have this Javascript class where in construct I initialize some class variable and I bind a click event and I try to get the declared variable if the click method is called, but returns every time undefined



class Tabs  {
constructor() {
this.tabLinks = document.querySelectorAll('[data-tab]')

let self = this
if( this.tabLinks.length > 0 ) {
this.tabContainer = document.querySelectorAll('[data-target]')
this.tabLinks.forEach((el) => {
el.addEventListener("click", self.setActiveTab, false);
} )
}

return

}

setActiveTab(e) {
e.preventDefault()
let currentEl = e.target
console.log(currentEl)
console.log(this.tabLinks) // Is undefined

Tabs.tabLinks.forEach((el) => {
el.classList.remove("is-active")
} )


}
}

export default Tabs


what I do wrong in this case?

    Change self.setActiveTab to this.setActiveTab.bind(this). You don't need the self variable.
