模块中的无限循环不起作用

我试图写一个Node模块,每秒运行一些代码:

function worker() {

}

worker.prototype.process = function(callback) {
    console.log("doing the job");
    callback();
}

worker.prototype.query_process = function(callback) {
    console.log("query_process called");
    this.process(function() {
        console.log("Process callback called");
        setTimeout(function() { this.query_process }, 1000);
    });
}

worker.prototype.start = function() {
    this.query_process();
}

module.exports = worker;

我这样使用它:

var worker = require('./lib/worker');

var worker = new worker();

worker.start();

以下是运行脚本时的输出:

& node workerTest.js 
query_process called
doing the job
Process callback called

为什么这不是在无限循环中运行

EDIT1

在方法调用后添加括号

setTimeout(function() { this.query_process() }, 1000);

但现在出现了这个错误:

/Users/dhrm/Development/project/lib/worker.js:14
        setTimeout(function() { this.query_process() }, 1000);
                                     ^
TypeError: undefined is not a function
    at null._onTimeout (/Users/dhrm/Development/project/lib/worker.js:14:32)
    at Timer.listOnTimeout (timers.js:110:15)

1 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:1)

   setTimeout(function() { this.query_process }, 1000);

您不能再次致电this.query_process。在它之后添加括号来调用函数。


对编辑的回应:

您还需要保存上下文以便在回调中使用:

worker.prototype.query_process = function(callback) {
    var me = this;
    console.log("query_process called");
    this.process(function() {
        console.log("Process callback called");
        setTimeout(function() { me.query_process() }, 1000);
    });
}
