When you encounter a “TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘transformfile’)” error, it means that you are trying to access a property called ‘transformfile’ on an object that is currently undefined.
Here is an example to illustrate the error:
// Create an undefined variable
let myObject;
// Try to access the property 'transformfile' on the undefined object
let value = myObject.transformfile;
In this example, when we try to access the ‘transformfile’ property on the ‘myObject’ variable, which is currently undefined, JavaScript throws a TypeError.
To avoid this error, you need to make sure the object is defined before accessing its properties. You can use conditionals or other techniques to check if the object exists before accessing its properties.
Here is an example that avoids the error by checking if the object is defined:
let myObject;
if (myObject !== undefined) {
let value = myObject.transformfile;
}
In this updated example, we use an if statement to check if the ‘myObject’ is not undefined before accessing its ‘transformfile’ property. By doing so, we prevent the TypeError from occurring.
