In Gridsome:
Seems like what is in metaInfo gets generated after mount, which results in no link preview when scraped by facebook.
The og:title, description and image are visible on client side.
How to get it generate on build so it would be in .html straight away?
I've been only able to add global data with head.meta.push({}) in main.js
Solution: move metaInfo into App.vue.
Seems like it only renders App.vue when building and it will only call a metaInfo() in there - where you can use the metadata obj from gridsome.server.js method createPage().

based on the following VueSchool tuto https://vueschool.io/courses/vue-router-for-everyone I'm trying to create a Vue app with a menu based on a list of applications found in an October server. I try to replace the static destinations[] by an applications[] filled from the database.
For that I use Axios and Vuex. I'm able to query the data, but I spent many hours trying to get it at the application loading, to create the menu, before the application is displayed...
I have a main.js an App.vue and a MenuApp.vue component for displaying the menu.
My problem is that my getter is always called before my mutation and that my application array is always empty when the menu is creating.
Is there a way to load and init properly all data before displaying my vue.js menu component ???
Or could I reload my menu component after the mutation ?
Thanks for help ;-)
You could use a "loading" layout, before load the main layout.
From "loading" layout, use async to load the applications list and all data you want to get before. At the end, just switch to main layout with applications list loaded.
From OctoberCMS side, I don't know how you are made the requests. But, try to use simple routes, calling router controllers, instead of using components. This will made a more direct request, and a better performance on your final project.
I am trying a new way of writing my ui and I am using straight ESM loading with Vue. As such I am trying to load my HTML files like I would with say Webpack. I have a simple example of what I am talking about. I basically want to take...
export default {
template: "<div>Here is the component. I want this template to be an html file without webpack</div>"
// I want this to be from a url say mysite.net/viewport.html
}
I tried the simple things like
import Template from "/viewport.html"
But of course that didn't work
I think there might be something I can do with dynamic components. Has anyone tried this an come up with a good solution?
I'm trying to understand the usage and limitations of server side rendering with vuejs when using aspnet core.
I used this starter kit for aspnet core and vuejs to setup a simple vue site, which is running based on the code here: https://github.com/selaromdotnet/aspnet-vue-ssr-test/tree/master
I then modified the project to update the aspnet-prerendering and added vue-server-renderer, compiling a hodgepodge of sources to cobble together this update: https://github.com/selaromdotnet/aspnet-vue-ssr-test/tree/ssr
If I run this project, the site appears to load fine, and if I turn off the javascript in the browser, I can see that it does appear that the server-side rendering executed and populated the html result:
however, because JavaScript is disabled, the content isn't moved into the dom as it looks like it is trying to...
My understanding of server-side rendering is that it would populate the html entirely and serve a completed page to the user, so that even if JS was disabled, they'd at least be able to see the page (specifically for SEO purposes). Am I incorrect?
Now I believe modern search engines will execute simple scripts like this to get the content, but I still don't want a blank page rendered if js is disabled...
Is this a limitation of server-side rendering, or perhaps specifically ssr with vue and/or aspnet core?
or am I just missing a step somewhere?
Edit: more information
I looked at the source code for what I believe is the method that prerenders the section here: https://github.com/aspnet/JavaScriptServices/blob/dev/src/Microsoft.AspNetCore.SpaServices/Prerendering/PrerenderTagHelper.cs
The line
output.Content.SetHtmlContent(result.Html);
has a null value for result.Html. However, when I manually edit this value to put a test value, it also doesn't render to the output html, and the app div tag is still empty...
If I'm doing something wrong to populate the result.Html value with the expected output, that's one thing, and I would appreciate some help in doing that, especially since the output html appears to be found, since it's in the script that immediately follows...
However, even if I were to populate it, it appears it's being skipped, as evidenced by me manually changing the value. is this a bug in the code or am I doing somethigng wrong, or perhaps both?
As you correctly noticed, for your project, result.Html inside the tag helper is null. So that line cannot be the location where the output is being generated. Since the HTML output from your prerendering script also does not include a script tag, it is clear that something has to generate that. The only other line that could possible do this is the following from the PrerenderTagHelper:
output.PostElement.SetHtmlContent($"<script>{globalsScript}</script>");
That would fit the observed output, so we should figure out where the globalsScript comes from.
If you look at the PrerenderTagHelper implementation, you can see that it will call Prerenderer.RenderToString which returns a RenderToStringResult. This result object is deserialized from JSON after calling your Node script.
So there are two properties of interest here: Html, and Globals. The former is responsible for containing the HTML output that finally gets rendered inside the tag helper. The latter is a JSON object containing additional global variables that should be set for the client side. These are what will be rendered inside that script tag.
If you look at the rendered HTML from your project, you can see that there are two globals: window.html and window.__INITIAL_STATE__. So these two are set somewhere in your code, although html shouldn’t be a global.
The culprit is the renderOnServer.js file:
vue_renderer.renderToString(context, (err, _html) => {
if (err) { reject(err.message) }
resolve({
globals: {
html: _html,
__INITIAL_STATE__: context.state
}
})
})
As you can see, this will resolve the result containing just a globals object with both html and __INITIAL_STATE__ properties. That’s what gets rendered inside of the script tag.
But what you want to do instead is have html not as part of globals but on the layer above, so that it gets deserialized into the RenderToStringResult.Html property:
resolve({
html: _html,
globals: {
__INITIAL_STATE__: context.state
}
})
If you do it like that, your project will properly perform server-side rendering, without requiring JavaScript for the initial view.
I am currently developing a web application that is used to display elements for events on a map provided by HERE Maps. I am using Vue.
I have some components, but the relevant component is the component HereMaps.vue which initializes the map using the HERE Maps Api.
The HERE Maps Api provides the possibility to place so called InfoBubbles on the map showing additional information. These InfoBubbles can be provided some HTML-code in order to customize their appearance.
Please refer to the documentation for additional information
Following the documentation the code looks something like this:
let bubble = new H.ui.InfoBubble(marker.getPosition(), {
content: "<div class='someClass'>Some Content</div>"
});
this.ui.addBubble(bubble)
This is happening after mount in the "mounted" method from Vue in the "HereMaps" component.
The Bubbles are added in a "closed" (hidden) form and dynamically "opened" to reveal their content when the corresponding marker icon on the map is clicked. Therefore the HTML-code is present on the DOM after the component is mounted and is not removed at a later stage.
Now instead of supplying custom code within each bubble added to the UI i want to just add a component like this:
let bubble = new H.ui.InfoBubble(marker.getPosition(), {
content: "<myDynamicComponent></myDynamicComponent>"
});
this.ui.addBubble(bubble)
It does not matter to me wether the component is initialized using props or if it is conditionally rendered depending on the state of a global variable. I just want to be able to use the "myDynamicComponent" in order to customize the appearance in a different file. Otherwise the design process gets very messy.
As far as i know this is not possible or at least i was not able to get it work. This is probably due to the fact that the "myDynamicComponent" is not used within the "template" of the "HereMaps" component und thus Vue does not know that it needs to render something here after the directive is added to the DOM in the "mounted" method.
This is what the InfoBubble looks using normal HTML as an argument:
This is what the InfoBubble looks using the component as an argument:
It appears to just be empty. No content of the "myDynamicComponent" is shown.
Does anyone have any idea how i could solve this problem.
Thank You.
Answer is a bit complicated and I bet you wouldn't like it:)
content param can accept String or Node value. So you can make new Vue with rendered your component and pass root element as content param.
BTW, Vue does not work as you think, <myDynamicComponent></myDynamicComponent> bindings, etc exists in HTML only in compile time. After that all custom elements(components) are compiled to render functions. So you can't use your components in that way.
Give us fiddle with your problem, so we can provide working example:)
Is it possible to add an Aurelia top level component without the router?
The goal is to create a component without the router since my application doesn't need any url based navigation.
From what I can tell Aurelia seems to take you down a path where components are instantiated via routing based on how the component is registered with the router.
Instead I would like to just add markup for the top level component on the main index.html page:
<my-component bind.current="'123456'"></my-component>
I would like define components without a router and only use the templating and data binding capabilities of Aurelia.
Is that possible?
Tried this in index.html (inside the body tag of the default project)
<require from='./dist/my-component'></require>
<my-component></my-component>
But it does not seem to pick it up. Ideally I would like to just define it in markup on a page served from the server since it would enable me to sett attributes dynamically on the elements
<my-component current.bind={{someServerGeneratedId}}></my-component>
In the above I would use a templating framework like mustache to dynamically render the Aurelia when the page is served from the server.
I could wrap the component in another "landing" component, but that makes it hard to benefit from setting things up with server generated bindings.
UPDATE:
Per Rob's response: https://github.com/aurelia/framework/issues/175#issuecomment-126965417
- He is expecting to add the ability to add a root component to the landing page in a future release. I understand there are ways to not use the router, but it still depends on pulling in a partial view during bootstrapping of the application. This does not use the router directly, but conceptually this is really just an implied/convention based client side nav. In the end there is a client side request to pull in the view, which means I can't generate the html dynamically from the initial server response.
Yes you can do this very easily without the router. Just remove the router configuration from your app.js and in app.html remove the router code there as well.
I think the issue you are running in to is that you are specifying the dist folder again in your index.html. You should just reference it like this -
<require from="my-component"></require>
<my-component current.bind="someServerGeneratedId"></my-component>
This will bind up correctly.
I guess you're missunderstanding the route concept here.
At the time of writing, Aurelia's index.html page is your initial page where you put your "loading" stuff and where Aurelia bootstraps the entire app.
So, you can't put a custom component directly on it, but that should not be a problem.
If you don't change any configuration on Aurelia, it will look for your app.html to bootstrap your app, and there you can have anything you want (routes or not, doesn't matter). So, you should put your component there, beside the other tags/components/etc you need.
I've made a plunker without any routing and with a custom component in the app.html, and something simulating what you need.
<template>
<require from='./my-component'></require>
<my-component current.bind="serverGeneratedID"></my-component>
</template>
