Not able to call Service inside WebSocket listener in Nestjs

问题

I have implemented WebSockets in Nestjs using below method and one of the requirement is that I need to update the db once I receive any message from websocket server. In order to do that I have done the below code but getting error like this:

But if I call the same method inside any other controller method it works fine(check /test1). Only when I call it from websocket listener I'm getting this error. Even if I call simple method from same controller to just print some log, I'm getting the same error TypeError: this.processData is not a function. Weird!

Can someone tell me what am I doing wrong with this?

Controller Code :

import { Controller, Post, Get, Inject, Req, UsePipes, Body, Header,Param } from '@nestjs/common';
import { Request } from 'express';
import * as WebSocket  from 'ws';
import { DatabaseService } from '../service/datafetch.service';

@Controller('sample')
export class SampleController {

    @Inject(dbService)
    private dbService: DatabaseService;

    static ws: any;
    static wsnew: any;
    public receiveDistData = '';

    // Connect WS & Listen to messages
    constructor() {
        this.initWs();     

        SampleController.ws.on('message', async function incoming(data) {
            console.log('message recieved 8081');
            var dataJson = JSON.parse(data);
            await this.dbService.updateResponseData(dataJson);
            return data;       
        }); 
    }

    @Get('/test/data/:id')
    async testData(@Param('id') id: string) {
        return await this.callWs(id);
    }

    @Get('/test1/data/:id')
    async testData1(@Param('id') id: string) {
        const data = {id: id, data:{}};
        return await this.dbService.updateResponseData(data);
    }

    async initWs() {
        SampleController.ws = new WebSocket('ws://127.0.0.1:8081');
    }

    async processData() {
        console.log('Printing a log...');
    }

    // Data Distribution
    async callWs(id) {    
        // If Socket is not opened, try to re-open    
        if(SampleController.ws.readyState != 1) { 
            console.log('Server is dead....');
            this.initWs();
        }

        const Data = await this.dbService.findAll(id);
        await SampleController.ws.send(JSON.stringify({
            event: 'channel1',
            data: Data,
        }));
    }

}

Repository Code:

import { InjectRepository } from '@nestjs/typeorm';
import { Injectable } from '@nestjs/common';
import { Repository } from 'typeorm';
import { SampleRepository } from '../repository/sample.repository';

@Injectable()
export class SampleService {

  constructor(
    @InjectRepository(SampleRepository)
    private readonly sampleRepository: SampleRepository
  ) {}

  async updateResponseData(data): Promise<any> {
    return await this.sampleRepository.updateData(data);
  }

}

回答1:

Inside an anonymous function, this refers to the global object, not the instance of your service.

Instead you can use an arrow function. Here, this refers to the class instance, as you would expect:

async function(data) {
  // this is global object
  this.call();


(data) => {
  // this is the same as in enclosing object
  this.call();
