"realm.objects()" will return an number

Goals

Get all results

Expected Results

realm.objects('Video') should return an array

Actual Results

A number is returned, almost half, looks like not the count of the result.

Steps to Reproduce

Code Sample

var realm;

this.allVideos = () => {
  console.log(`this.allVideos: ${this}, ${this.realm}`);

  const videos = this.realm.objects('Video');
  if (videos.length === undefined) {
    console.log(`!!!! Find a Realm\'s bug: videos should be array but it is ${videos}`);
    return null;
  } else {
    console.log(`allVideos: ${videos.length} ${videos}`);
  }

  return videos;
}

My log

!!!! Find a Realm's bug: videos should be array but it is 1

Hello, just want to share with you how I fixed this issue:

I have replaced all my addListener(this.listener); with the following addListener((results)=>setImmediate(this.listener, results));

Realm guys, I guess this should give you hint where to find the bug Hopefully it will save a day someone )))

Ran into this as well. Can confirm it was occurring while debugging.

Solved by converting the RealmObject into a plain object immediately.

const objs = realm.objects(MessageSchema.name).map(function(obj){
  return {
    id: obj.id,
    name: obj.name
    ...
  }
});
console.log("objects", objs);

if you’re relying on realm for dynamic models/collections obviously this won’t help
