createOrReplaceRole and createOrReplaceProfile throwing TypeError

[lethak]

Expected Behavior

createOrReplaceRole and createOrReplaceProfile should be working without throwing a TypeError

Current Behavior

A TypeError is thrown upon plugin initialization when kuzzle is starting

when using createOrReplaceRole:

Steps to Reproduce

I am calling rebuildRoles() on plugin init()

const roles = require('./roles.json')

const rebuildRoles = () => {
    return plugin.context.accessors.execute(new plugin.context.constructors.Request({
        'controller': 'security',
        'action': 'createOrReplaceRole',
        'refresh': 'wait_for',
        '_id': roles[0]._id,
        'body': roles[0].content,
    }))
    .catch((err) => {
        console.warn('ERROR ', err)
    })
}

roles.json

[
  {
    "_id": "admin",
    "content": {
      "controllers": {
        "*": {
          "actions": {
            "*": true
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
]

Context (Environment)

Docker image: kuzzleio/kuzzle:1.3.1

Hi @lethak !

Thanks for reporting this.
This was caused by the Kuzzle initialization sequence, the repositories were initialized after the plugin so when you try to use them you got an error.

Hello,

Thanks for the answer, in the meantime, wrapping rebuildRoles() in a setTimeout did the trick
