TypeError: Cannot Read Properties of Undefined (Reading 'javascript') in ItemPage Component #180

Issue: TypeError in ItemPage Component

Description:

In the Leetcode page the ItemPage component, a TypeError occurs when attempting to access a JavaScript property on itemData, which causes the application to crash. This error seems to be due to itemData being undefined at the time of property access.


Steps to Reproduce

  1. Navigate to the ItemPage component.
  2. Ensure itemData is populated in the Leetcode table.
  3. Observe the console error when attempting to render the component.

Expected Outcome

The component should render without errors, displaying information contained within the itemData.javascript property.


Actual Outcome

The application crashes with a TypeError indicating that itemData is undefined when attempting to access its properties


Code Context

Below is a code snippet from the ItemPage component where the error occurs:

// Code that may cause the issue
const languageData = itemData.javascript; // `javascript` property may be undefined in `itemData`

Data Structure Requirements

The itemData object passed to the ItemPage component should contain a javascript property to avoid this error. Expected structure:

{
  "id": "123",
  "name": "Example Problem",
  "javascript": "solution code here",
  ...
}

Suggested Investigation and Potential Fixes

Root Cause Analysis Confirm whether all instances of itemData are expected to include the javascript property. Check the data source for consistency and investigate why some itemData objects might lack this property.

Data Validation Ensure that the itemData object consistently includes the javascript property when passed to the ItemPage component. This may involve validation or restructuring at the data source to standardize the data.

Fallback Value Implement a fallback or default value for javascript in the ItemPage component to handle cases where itemData lacks this property. Example:

const languageData = itemData?.javascript ?? "No solution available";

Conditional Checks Add a conditional check to confirm the presence of the javascript property before accessing it:

const languageData = itemData && itemData.javascript ? itemData.javascript : "No solution available";

Automated Data Consistency Test

To avoid similar issues in the future, implement a test case to check the consistency of itemData properties, ensuring that all required fields are present.
