I’m encountering a TypeError in my JavaScript code stating that this.onT is not a function while trying to implement Razorpay’s checkout. Can anyone help me understand what might be causing this issue and how to resolve it?

I’m really stuck with this JavaScript issue and could use some help from anyone who’s faced something similar. So, I’m trying to integrate Razorpay’s checkout in my web app, and everything seems to be going smoothly—until I hit this wall.

While triggering the checkout, I get this annoying error: “TypeError: this.onT is not a function.” Like, what?! I’ve double-checked my function names and the way I’m calling everything. I’m not sure if it’s a scoping issue or something else entirely, but it’s starting to drive me nuts.

To give you a bit of context, I have a function where I set up the options for Razorpay’s checkout. I’m creating an instance of Razorpay and defining the key, amount, currency, and other necessary details. Here’s a snippet of my code:

“`javascript
openCheckout() {
const options = {
key: ‘your_key_here’, // Replace with your Razorpay key
amount: 50000, // Amount in paise
currency: ‘INR’,
name: ‘Your Company’,
description: ‘Test Transaction’,
handler: function (response) {
console.log(response);
this.onT(response.razorpay_payment_id); // <-- This line is causing the error }.bind(this), // I thought binding 'this' here would fix my issue prefill: { name: 'Customer Name', email: 'customer@example.com', contact: '9999999999', }, theme: { color: '#F37254', }, }; const rzp1 = new Razorpay(options); rzp1.open(); } ``` The binding of `this` in the handler is supposed to refer to the class instance, right? But for some reason, it’s still throwing that error. Is it possible that the function I’m trying to call doesn’t exist or is inaccessible at that point? I’m also wondering if there’s a chance that the Razorpay library is interfering with `this` somehow, or did I miss a setup step? Any insights or experiences you could share would be super helpful. I’ve been at this for a while, and it’s freaking frustrating not to find a resolution. Thanks a ton!

    1. It sounds like you’re really struggling with that error. That “TypeError: this.onT is not a function” looks super frustrating! I totally get it; JavaScript can be tricky with how it handles `this`.

      From what you’ve shared, the issue likely stems from how you’re attempting to access the method `onT`. Even though you’re binding `this` in the `handler`, we also need to ensure that the `onT` function exists in the current class scope.

      Here are a few things you might want to check:

      • Make sure that the function `onT` is defined in the same class or object you’re calling it from. If it’s not, JavaScript won’t know what `this.onT` refers to, which would lead to that error.
      • Instead of using `this.onT`, you could also consider moving your logic into the same handler directly or ensure that `onT` is being properly passed/contextually aware.
      • If `onT` takes some parameters or relies on outer state, ensure that context and state are preserved correctly.

      You might try logging `this` inside the `handler` to see what it references. If it’s not your class instance, then we might need to figure out why the binding isn’t behaving as we expect.

      Lastly, keep an eye on the version of the Razorpay library you’re using, just in case there are any changes in updates that could affect how the checkout is handled.

      Debugging can drive you nuts, but hang in there! You got this, and asking for help is always a good step. Good luck!

    2. The error message “TypeError: this.onT is not a function” indicates that the context of `this` within the `handler` function is not referencing the expected class instance where `onT` is defined. Even though you have bound `this` using `.bind(this)` in your handler, it’s essential to ensure that the `onT` method is indeed a method of the same class that contains the `openCheckout` function. If the method does not exist or is not defined in the current context, that would certainly cause this type of error. Check to ensure that `onT` is properly defined in your class and is accessible from within the scope of the handler function. Additionally, consider logging `this` inside the handler function to verify that it is indeed referencing the desired context.

      Another potential issue could arise if the `openCheckout` function executes in a different context than expected, especially if it’s being invoked from an event listener or a different component. To further troubleshoot, you might want to simplify the handler function temporarily by directly logging the payment ID instead: `console.log(response.razorpay_payment_id);` and see if that works without errors. If the direct logging is successful, you can then proceed to call `this.onT(response.razorpay_payment_id);` cautiously, ensuring that the setup for `onT` runs without issues. Ultimately, validating if `onT` is accessible at the time of invocation and ensuring no conflicts with the Razorpay library’s handling of scope will be key in resolving this frustrating issue.
