I have the following code that I call to create a copy object of map, and initialize the Leaflet map. This works and loads properly. However, the onEachFeature and/or the clickFeature functions are not working properly.
var map = {
mapUrl: "",
maxZoom: 18,
minZoom: 2,
map: L.map('worldMap').setView([51.505, -0.09], 2),
create: function(values) {
var instance = Object.create(this);
Object.keys(values).forEach(function(key) {
instance[key] = values[key];
});
return instance;
},
initLeafletMap: function() {
L.tileLayer(this.mapUrl, {
attribution: '',
maxZoom: this.maxZoom,
minZoom: this.minZoom,
id: 'mapbox.streets'
}).addTo(this.map);
//add continents' outlines
$.getJSON("/static/continents.json",
(function(style, onEachFeature, map) {
return function(continents) {
console.log(typeof(continents));
L.geoJson(continents, {
style: style,
onEachFeature: onEachFeature
}).addTo(map);
};
}(this.style, this.onEachFeature, this.map))
);
},
style: function() {
return {
weight: 2,
opacity: 1,
color: 'beige',
dashArray: '3',
fillOpacity: 0
};
},
onEachFeature: function(feature, layer) {
layer.on({
click: this.clickFeature
});
},
clickFeature: function(e) {
do something here();
},
So when I click on the map, I know the onEachFeature function is called, but it does not call clickFeature. Instead I get this error in the console:
leaflet.js:5 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'call' of undefined
at e.fire (leaflet.js:5)
at e._fireDOMEvent (leaflet.js:5)

Much probably simply need to bind the this
context when you pass your onEachFeature
method as argument of your IIFE to build the callback to your AJAX call:
this.onEachFeature.bind(this)
BTW you could also attach your click event listener directly on the Leaflet GeoJSON Layer Group instead of doing it for each child layer.
