MQTT Response with React Native - json

Question

I am currently making an IoT App that I'm trying to connect to a raspberry pi using MQTT. I use the react_native_mqtt package. I use the code posted by simaAttar from here: How to use MQTT on React Native? . The problem I have it doesnt always update my code when I alter it and save. What I'm trying to achieve is to receive a JSON formatted string from the rasp and use that to fill a FlatList with react-native-elements ListItem. But the data received is undefined, even though yesterday I did have it working for a second, it won't work anymore now.
Any help is appreciated.
EDIT: this is the code (forgot to post it)
import React, {Component} from 'react';
import init from 'react_native_mqtt';
import AsyncStorage from '#react-native-community/async-storage';
import {
ActivityIndicator,
StyleSheet,
Text,
View,
FlatList,
TouchableOpacity,
TextInput,
Button,
Alert,
} from 'react-native';
import {ListItem} from 'react-native-elements';
init({
size: 10000,
storageBackend: AsyncStorage,
enableCache: true,
sync: {},
});
export default class AllPeople extends Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.onMessageArrived = this.onMessageArrived.bind(this);
this.onConnectionLost = this.onConnectionLost.bind(this);
const client = new Paho.MQTT.Client(
'onto.mywire.org',
8080,
'Client-' + Math.random() * 9999 + 1,
);
client.onMessageArrived = this.onMessageArrived;
client.onConnectionLost = this.onConnectionLost;
client.connect({
onSuccess: this.onConnect,
useSSL: false,
onFailure: (e) => {
console.log('Error: ', e);
},
});
this.state = {
message: [''],
data: [],
isLoading: true,
client,
messageToSend: '',
isConnected: false,
};
}
onConnect = () => {
console.log('Connected');
const {client} = this.state;
client.subscribe('/app/to/allpeople');
this.setState({
isConnected: true,
error: '',
isLoading: true,
messageToSend: 'allpeople',
});
this.sendMessage();
};
onMessageArrived(entry) {
console.log("Nieuwe Test 1:")
console.log("PayloadMEssage: "+entry.payloadMessage);
console.log("Payload tostring: "+entry.payloadMessage.toString())
//this.setState({data: entry, isLoading: false});
}
sendMessage = () => {
console.log('message send.');
var message = new Paho.MQTT.Message(this.state.messageToSend);
message.destinationName = '/app/from';
if (this.state.isConnected) {
this.state.client.send(message);
} else {
this.connect(this.state.client)
.then(() => {
this.state.client.send(message);
this.setState({error: '', isConnected: true});
})
.catch((error) => {
console.log(error);
this.setState({error: error});
});
}
};
onConnectionLost(responseObject) {
if (responseObject.errorCode !== 0) {
console.log('onConnectionLost:' + responseObject.errorMessage);
this.setState({error: 'Lost Connection', isConnected: false});
}
}
render() {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
{this.state.isLoading ? (
<ActivityIndicator />
) : (
<FlatList
keyExtractor={keyExtractor}
data={this.state.data}
renderItem={Item}
/>
)}
</View>
);
}
}
const keyExtractor = (item, index) => login.username.toString();
const Item = ({item}) => {
return (
<TouchableOpacity>
<ListItem
title="TestTitle" //{item.results.name.first}
titleStyle={{fontWeight: 'bold'}}
leftIcon={<MCIcons name="account" size={36} color="dodgerblue" />}
subtitle={item.results.name.last}
rightTitle={item.results.registered.date}
rightTitleStyle={{fontSize: 14}}
chevron
bottomDivider
/>
</TouchableOpacity>
);
};
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
backgroundColor: '#F5FCFF',
},
});

I have managed to fix it by changing entry.payloadMessage to entry.payloadString. Apparentyly I changed it during the editing of my code.
