Not able bind the data to class variables while us

问题:

I am using TypeScript. I am trying to bind the response from rest API to a variable in a ViewModel like below:

export class TestListViewModel {

  public personItems: KnockoutObservableArray<Person>;

  constructor() {
        this.personItems = ko.observableArray([]);

        this.person1 = new Person();
        this.person1.name = ko.observable<string>("Test 1");
        this.person1.ssnId = ko.observable<string>("1234");
        this.personItems.push(this.person1);

       //If i put a debugger here and see the "this.personItems()" in console 
       //I can see 1 object in personItems

        $.get("https://somerestapi/api/TestLists", 
             (data: any) => {
                 for (var index in data) {
                  this.person1 = new Person();
                  this.person1.name = ko.observable<string>(data[index].name);
                  this.person1.ssnId = ko.observable<string>(data[index].ssnId);
                  this.personItems.push(this.person1);
                  //If i put a debugger here and see the "this.personItems()" in console 
                 **//Now i am getting error "Uncaught TypeError: this.personItems is not a function"**
                 //If i do only "this.personItems" it is giving as "Undefined"
             } 
        });

  } //end of constructor

} //end of class

Please see my comments in the code. When I am giving the data to personItems variable in constructor then I can see the data in the variable. But when I am doing the same in success cal back of $.get then data is not getting added to personItems variable. Why?

Could some one please help me what is wrong with my code. Thanks.

It is the scoping problems with javascript.

Can you try following code?

export class TestListViewModel {

  public personItems: KnockoutObservableArray<Person>;

  constructor() {
    const self = this;
        self.personItems = ko.observableArray([]);

        self.person1 = new Person();
        self.person1.name = ko.observable<string>("Test 1");
        self.person1.ssnId = ko.observable<string>("1234");
        self.personItems.push(self.person1);

       //If i put a debugger here and see the "self.personItems()" in console 
       //I can see 1 object in personItems

        $.get("https://somerestapi/api/TestLists", 
             (data: any) => {
                 for (var index in data) {
                  self.person1 = new Person();
                  self.person1.name = ko.observable<string>(data[index].name);
                  self.person1.ssnId = ko.observable<string>(data[index].ssnId);
                  self.personItems.push(self.person1);
                  //If i put a debugger here and see the "self.personItems()" in console 
                 **//Now i am getting error "Uncaught TypeError: self.personItems is not a function"**
                 //If i do only "self.personItems" it is giving as "Undefined"
             } 
        });

  } //end of constructor

}

Is this the entire code for the class? Is personItems accessed anywhere outside of the constructor? I would guess that there is something else that is manipulating personItems after $get is called and before it returns, and setting its size to 0.
