Why does Array.prototype.filter() throw an error in Magnolia JavaScript models?

问题

I'm attempting to filter a FreeMarker list in a Magnolia JavaScript model using Array.prototype.filter().

List

[#assign list = [1, 2, 3]]

Model

var Model = function() {
  this.filterList = function(list) {
    return list.filter(function(item) {
      return item === 2
    });
  }
};

new Model();

Usage

${model.filterList(list)}

However, I get the following error.

Caused by: jdk.nashorn.internal.runtime.ECMAException: TypeError: list.filter is not a function

Nashorn was implemented using ECMAScript-262 5.1.

The Nashorn JavaScript engine was first incorporated into JDK 8 via JEP 174 as a replacement for the Rhino scripting engine. When it was released, it was a complete implementation of the ECMAScript-262 5.1 standard. — JEP 335: Deprecate the Nashorn JavaScript Engine

Why despite the fact that Nashorn follows ECMAScript-262 5.1 do I get an error when using Array.prototype.filter()?

回答1:

The FreeMarker list you are passing to the model is a sequence, not a JavaScript array.

Sequence (3)
  0 = 1 (BigDecimal)
  1 = 2 (BigDecimal)
  2 = 3 (BigDecimal)

To solve the issue, convert the FreeMarker list you are passing to the model to a JavaScript array using Java.from(). For example:

var Model = function() {
  this.filterList = function(list) {
    return Java.from(list).filter(function(item) {
      return item === 2
    });
  }
};

new Model();
