task 250 stage 6

hrusi

Hello, I am on Task 250 at stage 6. When I run my code, the terminal window opens but it seems to hang. When I submit the task I get the error: "The callback function passed into term.on should increment the state.gold when the G key is clicked".

my handler.js file:

export const handleKeyPress = (term, state) => {
    return (name, matches, data) => {
        const key = String.fromCharCode(data.code);
        if (key === 'g' || key === 'G') {
            state.gold++;
        }
    } 
}

My gameEngine.js file:

import {init} from './functions.js';
import {handleKeyPress} from './handlers.js'

export const startMiningGame = (term, state) => {
    init(term);
    term.on('key', (name, matches, data) => {handleKeyPress(term, state)});
    handleKeyPress(term, state);
}

My functions.js file:

export const init = (term) => {
    term('Welcome to the mining game!');

    term.clear();
    term.hideCursor();
    term.grabInput();
    
}

Please let me know what am I doing wrong.
Thanks!

hrusi So the problem is here:

term.on('key', (name, matches, data) => {handleKeyPress(term, state)});

As handleKeyPress(term, state) returns the handler function, there's no need to wrap it in an additional one.

Here's what the code should look like:

term.on('key', handleKeyPress(term, state));
