ko.utils.arrayFirst always returns null when not handling else block with non-empty string

问题

This works correctly:

  self.getById = function(id) {
        return ko.utils.arrayFirst(self.PostArray(), function(item) {
            if (item.postId === id) {
                return item;
            }
            else {
                return 'not found';
            }
        });
    };

    console.log(self.PostArray().length);
    console.log(self.getById(170));

But if I put return '' or return null in else block I always get null, why is that?

回答1:

You're not using arrayFirst correctly. arrayFirst expects a function that returns true or false, evaluating each item. The first item for which the function returns true is returned. Here's how it should look:

self.getById = function(id) {
    return ko.utils.arrayFirst(self.PostArray(), function(item) {
        return item.postId === id;
    }) || 'not found';
};

Basically return 'not found' if item is falsey (null in this case most likely).
