javascript - Property '...' has no initializer and is not definitely assigned in the constructor

Question

in my Angular app i have a component:

import { MakeService } from './../../services/make.service';
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-vehicle-form',
  templateUrl: './vehicle-form.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./vehicle-form.component.css']
})
export class VehicleFormComponent implements OnInit {
  makes: any[];
  vehicle = {};

  constructor(private makeService: MakeService) { }

  ngOnInit() {
    this.makeService.getMakes().subscribe(makes => { this.makes = makes
      console.log("MAKES", this.makes);
    });
  }

  onMakeChange(){
    console.log("VEHICLE", this.vehicle);
  }
}

but in the "makes" property I have a mistake. I dont know what to do with it...

Answer 1

Just go to tsconfig.json and set

"strictPropertyInitialization": false

to get rid of the compilation error.

Otherwise you need to initialize all your variables which is a little bit annoying
