access state data from store into a string vue.js - string

Hey guys so I am trying to add state data from my store into a string in one of my axios calls within actions. Here is my store:
export const store = new Vuex.Store
({
state: {
participants: [],
filterTags: ["foo", "swag"],
page: 1,
perPage: 2,
filterTagName: "",
}
}
Here is my action call:
actions: {
async loadParticipants ({commit}) {
try {
console.log(this.state.page);
await axios
.get('/dash/participant?perPage=2&page=1&string=f')
.then(r => r.data)
.then(participants => {
console.log(participants.docs);
console.log("Hit me");
commit('setParticipants', participants)
})
}
catch (e) {
if (e.response)
console.log(e.response);
throw e
}
}
I want to add the store's state data where it says { INSERT DATA HERE } within the axios call:
.get('/dash/participant?perPage={INSERT DATA HERE }&page={ INSERT DATA HERE }&string=f')
Any input appreciated thank you!

In your action, you have access to the whole store, so instead to just getting only the commit declaring the param as ({commit}), you can add the state too:
async loadParticipants ({commit, state}) {
So you can use the state variable in your method body:
actions: {
async loadParticipants ({commit, state}) {
try {
console.log(this.state.page);
await axios
.get(`/dash/participant?perPage=${state.perPage}&page=${state.page}&string=${state.filterTagName}`)
.then(r => r.data)
.then(participants => {
console.log(participants.docs);
console.log("Hit me");
commit('setParticipants', participants)
})
}
catch (e) {
if (e.response)
console.log(e.response);
throw e
}
}
}

So you just want to fill your query params with the values from your vuex store?
Just pass the state into your action. And then you can add the state to your query params with a little help of template iterals. ${some-js-variable}
You can also directly destruct the response and grab the data.
Not sure why you make promise like then() statements if you use async and await.
actions: {
async loadParticipants ({commit, state}) {
try {
const {data} = await axios.get(`/dash/participant?perPage=${state.perPage}&page=${state.page}&string=f`)
console.log(data)
}
catch (e) {
if (e.response)
console.log(e.response);
throw e
}
}

Error: Actions must be plain objects. Instead, the actual type was: 'string'

Error:
Actions must be plain objects. Instead, the actual type was: 'string'. You may need to add middleware to your store setup to handle dispatching other values, such as 'redux-thunk' to handle dispatching functions.
The below code is the client side where I dispatch the selected user id to actions.
const friendHandle = (e) => {
e.preventDefault()
setSwitch(false)
setFriend(!friend)
dispatch(friendUser(id))//id is the id from params of selected users
setFetchAgain(!fetchAgain)
}
useEffect(() => {
if(currentUser){
currentUser?.friends?.map(friends => {
console.log(friends._id)
console.log(currentProfile._id)
if(friends._id===currentProfile._id){
return setFriend(true)
}
})
}else{
return setFriend(false)
}
},[currentUser,currentProfile])
below is actions.js for the above code
export const friendUser = (id) => async (dispatch) => {
try {
await api.friendUser(id)
dispatch(id)
} catch (error) {
console.log(error)
}
}
I am trying to pass the id of the selected user but I am getting an error. I am new to React so I am not able to understand.
remove the dispatch(id) from the action, might be some copy\paste or merge error

How can I am make sure these chain of functions in Node.js are performed in order (using promises)?

I have a set of functions in Node.js that I would like to load in a certain order. I will provide some mockup code abstracted and simplified:
function updateMyApp() {
loadDataToServer()
.then(() => useData())
.then(() => saveData())
.then(() => { console.log("updateMyApp done") })
}
function loadDataToServer() {
return new Promise( (resolve, reject) {
...preparing data and save file to cloud...
resolve()})
}
function handleDataItem(item) {
// Function that fetches data item from database and updates each data item
console.log("Name", item.name)
}
function saveData() {
// Saves the altered data to some place
}
useData is a bit more complex. In it I would like to, in order:
console.log('Starting alterData()')
Load data, as json, from the cloud data source
Iterate through every item in the json file and do handleDataItem(item) on it.
When #2 is done -> console.log('alterData() done')
Return a resolved promise back to updateMyApp
Go on with saveData() with all data altered.
I want the logs to show:
Starting useData()
Name: Adam
Name: Ben
Name: Casey
useData() done
my take on this is the following:
function useData() {
console.log('Starting useData()')
return new Promise( function(resolve, reject) {
readFromCloudFileserver()
.then(jsonListFromCloud) => {
jsonListFromCloud.forEach((item) => {
handleDataItem(item)
}
})
.then(() => {
resolve() // I put resolve here because it is not until everything is finished above that this function is finished
console.log('useData() done')
}).catch((error) => { console.error(error.message) })
})
}
which seems to work but, as far as I understand this is not how one is supposed to do it. Also, this seems to do the handleDataItem outside of this chain so the logs look like this:
Starting useData()
useData() done
Name: Adam
Name: Ben
Name: Casey
In other words. It doesn't seem like the handleDataItem() calls are finished when the chain has moved on to the next step (.then()). In other words, I can not be sure all items have been updated when it goes on to the saveData() function?
If this is not a good way to handle it, then how should these functions be written? How do I chain the functions properly to make sure everything is done in the right order (as well as making the log events appear in order)?
Edit: As per request, this is handleDataItem less abstracted.
function handleDataItem(data) {
return new Promise( async function (resolve) {
data['member'] = true
if (data['twitter']) {
const cleanedUsername = twitterApi.cleanUsername(data['twitter']).toLowerCase()
if (!data['twitter_numeric']) {
var twitterId = await twitterApi.getTwitterIdFromUsername(cleanedUsername)
if (twitterId) {
data['twitter_numeric'] = twitterId
}
}
if (data['twitter_numeric']) {
if (data['twitter_protected'] != undefined) {
var twitterInfo = await twitterApi.getTwitterGeneralInfoToDb(data['twitter_numeric'])
data['twitter_description'] = twitterInfo.description
data['twitter_protected'] = twitterInfo.protected
data['twitter_profile_pic'] = twitterInfo.profile_image_url.replace("_normal", '_bigger')
data['twitter_status'] = 2
console.log("Tweeter: ", data)
}
} else {
data['twitter_status'] = 1
}
}
resolve(data)
}).then( (data) => {
db.collection('people').doc(data.marker).set(data)
db.collection('people').doc(data.marker).collection('positions').doc(data['report_at']).set(
{
"lat":data['lat'],
"lon":data['lon'],
}
)
}).catch( (error) => { console.log(error) })
}
The twitterAPI functions called:
cleanUsername: function (givenUsername) {
return givenUsername.split('/').pop().replace('#', '').replace('#', '').split(" ").join("").split("?")[0].trim().toLowerCase()
},
getTwitterGeneralInfoToDb: async function (twitter_id) {
var endpointURL = "https://api.twitter.com/2/users/" + twitter_id
var params = {
"user.fields": "name,description,profile_image_url,protected"
}
// this is the HTTP header that adds bearer token authentication
return new Promise( (resolve,reject) => {
needle('get', endpointURL, params, {
headers: {
"User-Agent": "v2UserLookupJS",
"authorization": `Bearer ${TWITTER_TOKEN}`
}
}).then( (res) => {
console.log("result.body", res.body);
if (res.body['errors']) {
if (res.body['errors'][0]['title'] == undefined) {
reject("Twitter API returns undefined error for :'", cleanUsername, "'")
} else {
reject("Twitter API returns error:", res.body['errors'][0]['title'], res.body['errors'][0]['detail'])
}
} else {
resolve(res.body.data)
}
}).catch( (error) => { console.error(error.message) })
})
},
// Get unique id from Twitter user
// Twitter API
getTwitterIdFromUsername: async function (cleanUsername) {
const endpointURL = "https://api.twitter.com/2/users/by?usernames="
const params = {
usernames: cleanUsername, // Edit usernames to look up
}
// this is the HTTP header that adds bearer token authentication
const res = await needle('get', endpointURL, params, {
headers: {
"User-Agent": "v2UserLookupJS",
"authorization": `Bearer ${TWITTER_TOKEN}`
}
})
if (res.body['errors']) {
if (res.body['errors'][0]) {
if (res.body['errors'][0]['title'] == undefined) {
console.error("Twitter API returns undefined error for :'", cleanUsername, "'")
} else {
console.error("Twitter API returns error:", res.body['errors'][0]['title'], res.body['errors'][0]['detail'])
}
} else {
console.error("Twitter API special error:", res.body)
}
} else {
if (res.body['data']) {
return res.body['data'][0].id
} else {
//console.log("??? Could not return ID, despite no error. See: ", res.body)
}
}
},
You have 3 options to deal with your main issue of async methods in a loop.
Instead of forEach, use map and return promises. Then use Promise.all on the returned promises to wait for them to all complete.
Use a for/of loop in combination with async/await.
Use a for await loop.
It sounds like there's a problem in the implementation of handleDataItem() and the promise that it returns. To help you with that, we need to see the code for that function.
You also need to clean up useData() so that it properly returns a promise that propagates both completion and errors.
And, if handleDataItem() returns a promise that is accurate, then you need to change how you do that in a loop here also.
Change from this:
function useData() {
console.log('Starting useData()')
return new Promise( function(resolve, reject) {
readFromCloudFileserver()
.then(jsonListFromCloud) => {
jsonListFromCloud.forEach((item) => {
handleDataItem(item)
}
})
.then(() => {
resolve() // I put resolve here because it is not until everything is finished above that this function is finished
console.log('useData() done')
}).catch((error) => { console.error(error.message) })
})
}
to this:
async function useData() {
try {
console.log('Starting useData()')
const jsonListFromCloud = await readFromCloudFileserver();
for (let item of jsonListFromCloud) {
await handleDataItem(item);
}
console.log('useData() done');
} catch (error) {
// log error and rethrow so caller gets the error
console.error(error.message)
throw error;
}
}
The structural changes here are:
Switch to use async/await to more easily handle the asynchronous items in a loop
Remove the promise anti-pattern that wraps new Promise() around an existing promise - no need for that AND you weren't capturing or propagating rejections from readFromCloudFileServer() which is a common mistake when using that anti-pattern.
rethrow the error inside your catch after logging the error so the error gets propagated back to the caller

How to return success on a Post API call to MongoDB in NodeJS

I'm new to fetching and posting data using an API, and I can't work out how to do something once my Post has been completed.
I have a function that calls the API with the Post data. I need to set the loading state to false once the Post has been completed. Everything works apart from that, the data gets sent to Mongo, I just need to turn off my loading spinner once it has completed.
How do I do this, please?
This is how I'm trying to do it:
const postData = async () => {
setLoading(true)
await axios.post('/api/addData',form)
.then(response => {
setLoading(false)
})
}
And this is the API bit:
import { connectToDatabase } from "util/mongodb"
export default async (req, res) => {
const { db } = await connectToDatabase()
await db
.collection("posts")
.insertOne(req.body);
}
There is two potential problem in your code, first you're not sending any data back to the front in your backend code. Usually you send back the id of the inserted element (It can be usefull to do some mutation in your front), you'll also need to try catch your call to the db to notify that something went wrong to the front end side :
import { connectToDatabase } from "util/mongodb"
export default async (req, res) => {
try {
const { db } = await connectToDatabase()
const insertedPost = await db
.collection("posts")
.insertOne(req.body);
res.status(201).send(insertedPost.insertedId);
// again it's up to you to know what can be usefull to your front-end to use
// Look at http status code online to know what's the best fit
} catch (err) {
res.status(500).send(err.message);
// send whatever that can be usefull for your front end to handle the error
}
}
In your front-end code you're using await with .then, it's weird usage. You can put your setLoading(false) after the await without the .then but you'll still need to try catch it. What I prefer to do is using the finally block to stop loading, so if my api call fail the loading is still stopped :
const postData = async () => {
setLoading(true)
try {
const response = await axios.post('/api/addData',form)
// do something with response
} catch (err) {
// notify user that something went wrong
} finally {
setLoading(false);
}
}
const postData = () => {
setLoading(true)
axios.post('/api/addData',form)
.then(response => {
// do something with response
})
.catch((err) => {
// notify user that something went wrong
})
.finally(() => {
setLoading(false);
})
}

Rxjs in nestjs - Observable subscription error

I am newbie trying out rxjs and nestjs. The use case that I am currently trying to accomplish is for educational purpose. So I wanted to read a json file (throw an observable error in case of the file being empty or cannot be read) using the "fs" module. Now I create an observable by reading the file asynchronously, set the observer in the subject and then subscribe to the subject in the controller. Here is my code in the service
#Injectable()
export class NewProviderService {
private serviceSubject: BehaviorSubject<HttpResponseModel[]>;
// this is the variable that should be exposed. make the subject as private
// this allows the service to be the sole propertier to modify the stream and
// not the controller or components
serviceSubject$: Observable<HttpResponseModel[]>;
private serviceErrorSubject: BehaviorSubject<any>;
serviceErrorSubject$: Observable<any>;
filePath: string;
httpResponseObjectArray: HttpResponseModel[];
constructor() {
this.serviceSubject = new BehaviorSubject<HttpResponseModel[]>([]);
this.serviceSubject$ = this.serviceSubject.asObservable();
this.serviceErrorSubject = new BehaviorSubject<any>(null);
this.serviceErrorSubject$ = this.serviceErrorSubject.asObservable();
this.filePath = path.resolve(__dirname, './../../shared/assets/httpTest.json');
}
readFileFromJson() {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
fs.exists(this.filePath.toString(), exists => {
if (exists) {
fs.readFile(this.filePath.toString(), 'utf-8' , (err, data) => {
if (err) {
logger.info('error in reading file', err);
return reject('Error in reading the file' + err.message);
}
logger.info('file read without parsing fg', data.length);
if ((data.length !== 0) && !isNullOrUndefined(data) && data !== null) {
// this.httpResponseObjectArray = JSON.parse(data).HttpTestResponse;
// logger.info('array obj is:', this.httpResponseObjectArray);
logger.info('file read after parsing new', JSON.parse(data));
return resolve(JSON.parse(data).HttpTestResponse);
} else {
return reject(new FileExceptionHandler('no data in file'));
}
});
} else {
return reject(new FileExceptionHandler('file cannot be read at the moment'));
}
});
});
}
getData() {
from(this.readFileFromJson()).pipe(map(data => {
logger.info('data in obs', data);
this.httpResponseObjectArray = data as HttpResponseModel[];
return this.httpResponseObjectArray;
}), catchError(error => {
return Observable.throw(error);
}))
.subscribe(actualData => {
this.serviceSubject.next(actualData);
}, err => {
logger.info('err in sub', typeof err, err);
this.serviceErrorSubject.next(err);
});
}
Now this is the controller class
#Get('/getJsonData')
public async getJsonData(#Req() requestAnimationFrame,#Req() req, #Res() res) {
await this.newService.getData();
this.newService.serviceSubject$.subscribe(data => {
logger.info('data subscribed', data, _.isEmpty(data));
if (!isNullOrUndefined(data) && !_.isEmpty(data)) {
logger.info('coming in');
res.status(HttpStatus.OK).send(data);
res.end();
}
});
}
The problem I face is that I can get the file details for the first time and the subscription is getting called once > its working fine. On the subsequent requests
Error [ERR_HTTP_HEADERS_SENT]: Cannot set headers after they are sent to the client
at ServerResponse.setHeader (_http_outgoing.js:470:11)
at ServerResponse.header (C:\personal\Node\test-nest.js\prj-sample\node_modules\express\lib\response.js:767:10)
at Ser
and the endpoint /getJsonData results in an error. Could someone help me out. i believe the subscription is not getting properly after the first call, but not sure how to end that and how to resolve that
The problem is that you're subscribing to your serviceSubject in your controller. Every time a new value is emitted, it will try to send the response. This works the first time, but the second time it will tell you it can't send the same response again; the request has already been handled.
You can use the pipeable first() operator to complete the Observable after the first value:
#Get('/getJsonData')
public async getJsonData() {
await this.newService.getData();
return this.newService.serviceSubject$.pipe(first())
}
You want your Observable to be shared (hot), so that every subscriber always gets the same, latest value. That's exactly what a BehaviourSubject does. So you should not convert your Subject to an Observable when you expose it publicly because you will lose this desired behavior. Instead, you can just cast your Subject to Observable, so that internally it is still a subject but it will not expose the next() method to emit new values publicly:
private serviceSubject: BehaviorSubject<HttpResponseModel[]>;
get serviceSubject$(): Observable<HttpResponseModel[]> {
return this.serviceSubject;
}
I think trying to convert the cold observable (the one that I created) to a hot/warm observable might help to plugin to a single source and emit and complete its execution and maintain the last emitted data to any cloned values. So I make the cold observable to a warm observable using the publishLast(), refCount() operators, and I could achieve the single subscription and the execution completion of the observable. Here are the change I made to work.
This is the service class change I made
getData() {
return from(this.readFileFromJson()).pipe(map(data => {
logger.info('data in obs', data);
this.httpResponseObjectArray = data as HttpResponseModel[];
return this.httpResponseObjectArray;
}), publishLast(), refCount()
, catchError(error => {
return Observable.throw(error);
}));
// .subscribe(actualData => {
// this.serviceSubject.next(actualData);
// }, err => {
// logger.info('err in sub', typeof err, err);
// this.serviceErrorSubject.next(err);
// });
}
And this is the change I made in the controller
public async getJsonData(#Req() req, #Res() res) {
let jsonData: HttpResponseModel[];
await this.newService.getData().subscribe(data => {
logger.info('dddd', data);
res.send(data);
});
}
Any answers that allow the observables to be first subscribed to subjects and then subscribing that subject in the controller is also welcome.
I found a great post on hot vs cold observables and how to make an observable subscribe to a single source and convert a cold, to a hot/warm observable - https://blog.thoughtram.io/angular/2016/06/16/cold-vs-hot-observables.html
I would recommend to return the Promise directly to the controller. Here, you don't need an Observable. For the subscribers, you additionally emit the value of the Promise to your serviceSubject.
async getData() {
try {
const data = await this.readFileFromJson();
this.serviceSubject.next(data as HttpResponseModel[]);
return data;
} catch (error) {
// handle error
}
}
In your controller you can just return the Promise:
#Get('/getJsonData')
public async getJsonData() {
return this.newService.getData();
}

getting bad request instead of full error message

I am trying to do error handling for POST with the same user email with the following(using superagent):
export function signUpUser(userData) {
return async dispatch => {
try {
const currentUser = await request.post(`${url}/signup`).send(userData);
set(window.localStorage, 'x-auth', currentUser);
dispatch(signUpSuccessObject(userData));
} catch (error) {
dispatch(signUpFailObject(error));
}
};
}
I want to get the following which I can see in my network tab:
{"name":"SequelizeUniqueConstraintError","errors":[{"message":"email
must be unique","type":"unique
violation","path":"email","value":"leo#fsl.co","origin":"DB","instance":
But instead all I get is:
Bad Request
My controller for API:
User.create(
Object.assign(req.body, {
password: bcrypt.hashSync(req.body.password, 10),
})
)
.then(() => {
const myToken = jwt.sign({email: req.body.email}, 'leogoesger');
res.status(200).send(myToken);
})
.catch(err => res.status(400).send(err));
},
https://github.com/visionmedia/superagent/issues/1074
^^ Used this as a reference.
Basically, I need error.response. This will give me the entire object, which will allow me to get access to the error message.
So full working code would be:
export function signUpUser(userData) {
return async dispatch => {
try {
const currentUser = await request
.post(`${url}/signup`)
.send(userData)
.type('json');
set(window.localStorage, 'x-auth', currentUser);
dispatch(signUpSuccessObject(userData));
} catch (e) {
dispatch(signUpFailObject(e.response.body));
}
};
}
res.send() will send plain text/html responses.
Use res.json(myToken) and res.status(400).json(err) for a JSON API.
