unable to create an array of Objects in Angular2

Question

This is a simple question and have done this many time but now I am unable to make an array of objects. I naturally googled and the below is what they had too.

@Injectable()
export class SearchService {

    private let data: User[] = [
        {ssn: "146-89-5656", userId: 'jochampa', office: 'AMB', role: 'admin'},
        {ssn: "777-88-1000", userId: 'teddyBear', office: 'AMB', role: 'admin'},
        {ssn: "132-40-4000", userId: 'Josh', office: 'AMB', role: 'admin'},
        {ssn: "123-56-6000", userId: 'Kori', office: 'AMB', role: 'admin'},
        {ssn: "777-98-7000", userId: 'Dummy', office: 'AMB', role: 'admin'},
        {ssn: "899-19-2200", userId: 'Drew', office: 'AMB', role: 'admin'},
        {ssn: "021-69-2222", userId: 'Ken', office: 'AMB', role: 'admin'},
        {ssn: "589-47-9999", userId: 'Justin', office: 'AMB', role: 'admin'},
        {ssn: "146-89-5656", userId: 'jochampa', office: 'AMB', role: 'admin'},
        {ssn: "777-88-1000", userId: 'teddyBear', office: 'AMB', role: 'admin'},
        {ssn: "132-40-4000", userId: 'Josh', office: 'AMB', role: 'admin'},
        {ssn: "123-56-6000", userId: 'Kori', office: 'AMB', role: 'admin'},
        {ssn: "777-98-7000", userId: 'Dummy', office: 'AMB', role: 'admin'},
        {ssn: "899-19-2200", userId: 'Drew', office: 'AMB', role: 'admin'},
        {ssn: "021-69-2222", userId: 'Ken', office: 'AMB', role: 'admin'},
        {ssn: "589-47-9999", userId: 'Justin', office: 'AMB', role: 'admin'},
    ];

But I get an error when I hover over it saying ERROR TS1005 expected =

User object:

export class User {
    ssn:string;
    userId:string;
    lastName:string;
    office:string;
    role:string;
}

You should not use let for assignment and you are missing lastName in the User object. You can make lastName optional by defining it as lastName?:string — rageit

I don't think this is the right way to write this private let data: User[] =.. Is this a field or a local variable?

If it's a field then it should be

private data: User[] = ..

So you can access it in your class with this.data

else it should be inside a contstructor, method or outside of the @Injectable

Also the objects don't have the lastName property.

@Drew1208 Is it the same error? Did you compile the ts? Also the objects don't have the lastName property

It was the lastName. I need to step away for a while.
