How To Use Colons In Const
New to react and I am trying to use a colon like so (within the return of ProfilePage.js):
<a class="uk-text">{user.attributes.custom:company_name}</a>
but its giving me this error:
Parsing error: Unexpected token, expected "}"
I am getting attributes from an AWS Cognito User Pool and I can successfully see the returned object if I log it to the console like so:
Object >
custom:company_name: "apple"
custom:department: "dept"
custom:job_title: "title"
email: "[email protected]"
email_verified: false
family_name: "user"
given_name: "test"
locale: "location"
phone_number: "+18702831861"
phone_number_verified: false
sub: "guid"
I can get the family_name
without issue:
<a class="uk-text">{user.attributes.family_name}</a>
but anytime I try the custom attributes with its colon, it throws the error.
Full ProfilePage.js code:
import React from "react";
import { API, graphqlOperation } from 'aws-amplify';
class ProfilePage extends React.Component {
state = {
};
componentDidMount() {
if (this.props.user) {
}
}
render() {
const { user } = this.props;
console.log(user.attributes)
const emailVerified = this.props.user.attributes.email_verified
const company_name = user.attributes.custom:company_name; // ERROR occurs here

}
export default ProfilePage;
I do not even know what this use is called {user.attributes.custom:company_name}
, reference to a const? Can someone educate me on what that is named and how do I use a colon within one?
Regards
Answer
You can access object's properties with brackets as well.
<a class="uk-text">{user.attributes["custom:company_name"]}</a>
Since a colon isn't a valid character for variables, object properties (because it's used to set a value to some property), you have to define/get the value with wrapping the name with quotes.
Hope I got the problem correctly.
