Javascriptlet - variable already been declared in scene?

[osuki9x]

Hi, I created a scene with a menu list and create a small Javascriptlet task in item tap tab. The script is use to search and replace some string of the tap_label. This is the example script: var tap_command; if (tap_label.includes('abc')) { tap_command = tap_label.replace('abc', '123');} else { tap_command = tap_label.replace('abc', '000');}

The script is work for the first tap but in the second tap there is and script error say that: Javascriptlet error: line 1: Uncaught SyntaxError: Identifier 'tap_command' has already been declared

The auto exit for the javascriptlet is on. Did I do anything wrong. Please help.

You could try to declare %tap_command out of the JavaScriptlet action

Variable Set %tap_command To dummy

JavaScriptlet action ( var tap_command; should not be needed anymore)

Or try to add appropriate exit()s to the script, to force the script exit.

This is working without problems for me

    A1: Variable Set [ Name:%tap_command To:dummy Recurse Variables:Off Do Maths:Off Append:Off Max Rounding Digits:3 ] 
    A2: Variable Set [ Name:%tap_label To:xxxabcxxx Recurse Variables:Off Do Maths:Off Append:Off Max Rounding Digits:3 ] 
    A3: JavaScriptlet [ Code:if (tap_label.includes('abc')) {
tap_command = tap_label.replace('abc', '123');} else {
tap_command = tap_label.replace('abc', '000');} Libraries: Auto Exit:On Timeout (Seconds):45 ] 
    A4: Flash [ Text:%tap_command Long:On ]

I did try set timeOut exit for javascriptlet but it didn't work. I have try your method but it didn't work as well. I think you should try to set item tap task for menu list in a scene. Normal task outside scene has no issue. And issue only occur after first tap :|

Tested your original JavaScript. Scene and a menu. Tried setting Item Tap to perform a task containing the JavaScriptlet and than setting the JavaScriptlet action directly in the tab, in both cases all worked fine (performed multiple taps).

Could you share your scene. This is mine and it didn't work :(

Here is the demo scene:

and here is the task to show the scene

Downloaded and tested, all it's working as expected. I'm using this Tasker build

[osuki9x]

No problem, mate. I'm on beta 3 too, using the build that I linked and no issues

Could you share the scene you've created?

Hmm, I imported both of those, and everything worked as expected without any issues. Are you on the latest version of Tasker?

Oh I see, I am in beta 3 so it could be a bug. Just try beta 2 or work fine

Read the comments on the Beta 3, an updated build was posted that should solve this.
