Accessing object in returned promise using fetch w/ react js

Question

I have this function:

  getUserData() {
    fetch(this.props.apiUrl + this.state.username + '?client_Id=' + this.props.clientId + '&client_secret=' + this.props.clientSecret)
      .then(function(response) {
        var data = response.json();
        this.setState({
          userData: data
        });
        console.log(this.state.userData);
      }.bind(this))
      .catch(function(error) {
        this.setState({
          username: null
        });
        console.log(error)
      }.bind(this)) 
  }

Which returns this in the console:

Promise {[[PromiseStatus]]: "pending", [[PromiseValue]]: undefined}

proto [[PromiseStatus]] : "resolved"

[[PromiseValue]] : Object
avatar_url : "https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/"
login      : "hello world"
.
.
.

I need to access the name/value pairs in the object but I can't get to them. I'm assuming I need to take one extra step after I convert the response to json but can't figure it out. If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated!

Answer 1

response.json() returns a promise, so you also need to handle it appropriately, eg:

.then(function(response) {
    return response.json();
})
.then(function(parsedData) {
    // data here
})
