I am trying to create empty array in react-native using es6. But while accessing it I get an error data not defined.
Here is the code snippet which I am using to initialise the array.
constructor() { super(); this.state = { search: "", data: [] } }
Here is the code through which I am trying to populate the array and at the same time logging it
.then((responseData) => { this.setState({ data: responseData.hits.hits.map(function(search){ return{ name: search._source.service_name } }) }) console.log(data);
I think so there is a problem in initialisation of array can anybody rectify it?

Answer
Your initializing of the array looks fine.
You just can’t access data
like a local scoped variable. The data
array in your example is a property/attribute of your state object.
So you need to access your data array like this:
this.state.data
