TypeError: Object has no member 'slice' at decodeUplink

[joscha]

Hi,

My assumption is that the ttn side implementation no longer has .slice implemented.
Can you try: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/slice#calling_slice_on_non-array_objects

E.g.:

Array.prototype.slice.call(bytes, x, x + 1)

in your case and see if that works? If not, then we'll need to provide a slice implementation or manually pick the right bytes.

Many thanks @joscha for the (indirect) hint, I found the error!
Turned out the bytes parameter was a dictionary, containing another key called bytes. Running the following snippet:

function decodeUplink(bytes) {
  throw new Error(JSON.stringify(bytes))
}

shows the passed bytes object:

{
  "bytes": [1, 2, 3],
  "fPort":10
}

Now we can convert them using

data.fPort = uint8(bytes.bytes.slice(x, x + 1));

BR, Christian :-)

I see, great! Did you copy that sample from somewhere in the docs? If yes, would you mind opening a PR to fix it, please?

[shypard]

No, the bytes data sample was from one of my tests. I just used the converter snippets from the README.md, like:

uint8(bytes.slice(x, x + 1)) // 10

I can however create a PR to replace the bytes with bytes.bytes or probably more understandable payload.bytes, if you want.

[joscha]

Yes please!
