I'm reading a sheet using the SheetJS (xlsx) extension to read from the excel file file like so:
var workbook = XLSX.readFile(req.file.path);
var sheet_name_list = workbook.SheetNames;
let sheet_json = XLSX.utils.sheet_to_json(workbook.Sheets[sheet_name_list[0]]);
When I run console.log(sheet_json)
I get:
[
{
'Question*': 'Question 1',
'Number of Choices*': 2,
'Choice A*': 'Apple',
'Choice B*': 'Pineapple',
'Answer (A/B/C/D)*': 'A',
'Correct Marking*': 1,
'Negative marking*': 0
},
{
'Question*': 'Question 2',
'Number of Choices*': 3,
'Choice A*': 'Car',
'Choice B*': 'Bike',
'Choice C': 'Truck',
'Answer (A/B/C/D)*': 'C',
'Correct Marking*': 1,
'Negative marking*': 1
}
]
Now I loop over the sheet_json array and I can't validate the properties, the result is like this:
// i is the index of iterator. o is the object iterated
let sn = ["Question*", "Number of Choices*"]
let props = Object.keys(sheet_json[i]);
console.log(props); //===> false
console.log(props.findIndex(o=>o==sn[1])) //===> false
console.log(o.hasOwnProperty(sn[1])); //===> false
console.log("Number of Choices*" in o); //===> false
console.log(sn[1] in sheet_json[i]); //===> false
console.log(props.includes(sn[1].trim().toString())); //===> false
console.log(o["Number of Choices*"]); //===> undefined
console.log(o[sn[1]]!==undefined); //===> false
Why is everything showing up as undefined or false? Please help.

Here's the excel file as well: DOWNLOAD
I tried replicating it here https://jsfiddle.net/t4ocdw67/.
sheet_json=[{...},{...}];
for(i in sheet_json)
{
let o = sheet_json[i];
let sn = ["Question*", "Number of Choices*"]
.... //more code here
}
It seems to be working fine, there might be a problem with iteration part maybe
