Hi guys I'm learning some next.js and I'm trying to pass data from a data.js file to a page in the pages folder. I tried using getStaticProps but that needs an absolute URL. Below ill show an example of what I'm trying to do. Firstly is the page itself.
const page = ({ data }) => {
return (
<>
<p>{data.name}</p>
</>
);
};
export default page;
Then the data.js file looks like such.
export const user = [
{
id: 'Banana1',
password: 'Apple123',
name: 'Banana',
surname: 'Orange',
birthday: '10 March 2077',
cellNumber: '011 111 1111',
email: 'Banana#apple.com',
}
]
I know there is probably better methods of keeping the data but I'm just looking for something really simple for what I'm trying to do.
With help from #trash_dev I added the import { user } from '../path/to/datafile' in the page.js and also in the page.js removed the ({ data }) as that wasn't needed.
Then with help from #juliomalves when trying to use the data the array position had to be used so in my example it would be as follows:
const page = () => {
return (
<>
<p>{user[0].name}</p>
</>
);
};

after searching half a day I still not able to getItem from local storage.
the idea is to save some data to local storage and based on that I want to route a user in the Layout component. I am able to save to local storage and delete but not able to get data from it. I get error 'local storage not defined' or 'destroy is not a function'
I have 3 components save, delete and get. save and delete I execute after a client side api call, the get function I need to be working in the Layout as it is the top level for all routes.
I Need a bit help to the right direction please.

I found something that works
export const IsAuth = ()=>{
const [auth, setAuth] = useState();
useEffect(()=>{
if(typeof windows === undefined) return;
const item = localStorage.getItem('ltu');
setAuth(!!item);
},[]);
return auth;
}
now my problem is I have not much understanding of nextjs. I used the Layout to create a theme template, I basically have only 3 pages that can be visited if not logged in and the rest one needs to be logged in. I get so many examples but it seems like I need to verify auth on every single page instead of being able to do this on root/layout level.
all examples I get are without the use of Layout and I am totally stuck.
I want a simple login system just with jwt and check if thats there to show pages.
I could not get the localStorage.getItem() to work in the layout template.
My solution while maybe not perfect is.
in the _app.js I create useState() and pass those along to the menu trough the Layout, in in the menu useEffect() with 'use client' in the useEffect I set the state I need global.
_app.js
export default function App({ Component, pageProps }){
const [isAuth, setAuth] = useState()
const [user, setUser] = useState()
return (
<Layout setAuth={setAuth} isAuth={isAuth} user={user} setUser={setUser}>
<Component user={user} setUser={setUser} isAuth={isAuth} {...pageProps} />
</Layout>
)
}
Layout.js
export default function Layout({ children, setAuth, isAuth, user, setUser }) {
return (
<>
<Headd />
<SideMenu setAuth={setAuth} isAuth={isAuth} user={user} setUser={setUser}/>
<main>
<div className="menu-spacer"></div>
<content>
{children}
</content>
</main>
</>
)
}
menu.js
'use client';
const SideMenu = ({setAuth, isAuth, user, setUser}) => {
useEffect(()=>{
if(typeof windows === undefined) return;
const item = localStorage.getItem('ltu');
setAuth(!!item);
if(item) setUser(JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('Ud')))
}, [router, router.isReady])
}
Now I can use the {isAuth, user,} on any page and component.
I am pretty sure this is not the right solution, but I could not find any other working solution and no one here yet posted a answer.
I have a simple nextjs 13 application (appDir) with 2 pages and a <Link/> component navigation.
first page Home - static
second page Test - receiving dynamic random content on the server side (fetch) from a third-party source.
Problem: When the application is rendered everything works fine, but when I try to switch between pages, my test page shows the old content, I can refresh the browser to get the actual data, is very similar to navigating through regular links <a/>, but i need without reloading the entire application.
Q: How can I force nextjs 13 to reload the Test page when I switch between pages with <Link/> component?
// src/components/navbar.tsx
'use client'
import {usePathname} from "next/navigation";
import Link from "next/link";
const navItems = [
{text: 'Home', href: '/'},
{text: 'Test', href: '/test'}
];
const Navbar = () => {
const pathname = usePathname();
return <nav className="nav nav-masthead justify-content-center float-md-end">
{navItems.map((item: { text: string, href: string, link?: boolean }, idx: number) => (
<Link key={idx} href={item.href} className={`nav-link${item.href === pathname ? ' active' : ''}`}>
{item.text}
</Link>
)
)}
</nav>
}
export default Navbar;
// src/app/test/page.tsx
import * as crypto from "crypto";
const getData = async () => {
const res = await fetch('http://localhost:3000/random-data', {cache: 'no-store'});
if (!res.ok) {
throw new Error('Failed to fetch data');
}
return res.json();
}
export default async function Page() {
return <p>{crypto.createHash('sha256').update(JSON.stringify(await getData())).digest('hex')}</p>
};
I've recently asked about this same topic on their feedback discussion on github: https://github.com/vercel/next.js/discussions/41745?sort=new#discussioncomment-4620262
The cause of the problem is Link is only doing client side navigation and seems to serve a cached state of the previously visited component. You'll notice that the client never calls back to the server and thus the server component never runs the second time.
I've been searching for days, but haven't found a way to force Link to reload or force refresh the component to re-render.
My conclusion is that if you have dynamic data that needs to refreshed periodically, it's best to render it in a client component and not use a server component for now.
Also, if you'd like to use Suspense, you'll need to use a library like SWR or React Query for any client side data fetching.
I really can't figure out what is wrong with this code on Next.js.
index.js :
import { getUsers } from "../utils/users";
import React from "react";
Home.getInitialProps = async (ctx) => {
let elements = [];
getUsers().then((res) => {
res.map((el) => {
elements.push(el.name);
});
console.log(elements);
});
return { elements: elements };
};
function Home({ elements }) {
return (
<div>
{elements.map((el, i) => {
<p key={i}>{el}</p>;
})}
</div>
);
}
export default Home;
This doesn't render anything on my main page but still console logs the right data on server side (inside the vscode console). I really can't figure out what's going on, I followed precisely the article on the next.js site.
The getUsers function is an async function that returns an array of objects (with name,surname props), in this case in the .then I'm grabbing the names and pushing them into an array that correctly logs out to the console.
How can I make this data that I get render on the page?? Surely something to do with SSR.
The problem is using async function. Try as following.
...
elements = await getUsers();
...
In your code, component is rendered before response is finished. So the data is not rendered. Suggest using "async...await...". Infact "async" and "await" are like a couple of one.
Background
I'm trying to build an app which shows a number of stores, in the home screen which is a function component (mind this as I need to use hooks) I have a scroll view which shows different stores.
What I need
When the user presses on one of the stores it should redirect it to a screen which has the information of that specific store. I have built the "store detail" screen but with static info, I want to replace all of that information with data stored in a firestore collection.
Question
How would one go about retrieving data from a Firestore collection in react native, then assigning the data from each document to a separate Touchable Opacity (I know about passing params with react navigation, I just don't know which param to pass when working with Firestore), and then displaying that data in the store detail screen?
Sample code for context
App.js
<NavigationContainer>
<Stack.Navigator initialRouteName={user ? 'Home' : 'Login'}
screenOptions={{cardStyle: { backgroundColor: '#FFFFFF' }}}>
<Stack.Screen name="Home"options={{headerShown: false}}>
{props => <HomeScreen {...props} extraData={user} />}
</Stack.Screen>
<Stack.Screen name="Login" component={LoginScreen} options={{headerShown: false}}/>
<Stack.Screen name="Registration" component={RegistrationScreen} options={{headerShown: false}}/>
<Stack.Screen name="storeDetail" options={{title: ''}}>
{props => <storeDetail {...props} extraData={} />}
</Stack.Screen>
</Stack.Navigator>
</NavigationContainer>
In this file you'll see that I've already called some data (Login and Register pass userData to the Home Screen), however in order to implement that method I depended on the response from the authentication method I was using. I imagine although, I will probably need to pass something as extraData, I understand what I should do, I just don't know how to fill the blank spaces.
Thanks a lot in advance!
First, install the Firebase SDK in your app, so you can make queries to your backend.
I don't know if your sample App.js represents the current state of progress on your app, but I'm going to assume that:
you already have your storeDetail screen built
you know the store's id before navigating to the screen (eg in the HomeScreen)
you pass the storeId as a navigation param when navigating to storeDetail
So in storeSetails screen, you can query Firestore when receiving storeId, and save the result to a state variable on success:
const StoreDetailsScreen = ({ route }) => { // route is passed as a prop by React Navigation
const { storeId } = route.params
const [store, setStore] = useState()
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(true) // show a loading spinner instead of store data until it's available
useEffect(() => {
const fetchQuery = async () => {
const storeData = await firestore()
.collection('stores')
.doc(storeId)
.get() // this queries the database
if (storeData) {
setStore(storeData) // save the data to store state
setLoading(false) // set loading to false
} else {
// something went wrong, show an error message or something
}
}
fetchQuery()
}, [storeId])
if (loading) {
return (
<ActivityIndicator/>
)
}
return (
// ... store details
)
}
Then you can use the data in store to render stuff in your screen
<Text>{store.name}</Text>
<Text>{store.email}</Text>
// ...

My problem is I want to get data at the beginning of the vue page. I tried to put those codes in mount() but it's still too late. After searching I think maybe created() is a good place or any places before generating the html code. But as I need to import a function so it seems that I cannot use created(). So I am wondering what's the better option to do that?
Right now my code looks like this
<template>
{{ username }}
<template>
<script>
import firebase from 'firebase';
export default {
name: 'page',
data() {
return {
username = "whatever",
}
}
mounted() {
var firebaseConfig = {
// some code
};
firebase.initializeApp(firebaseConfig);
this.username = username from firebase
},
}
</script>
But when I reload the page it shows whatever instead of the username I get from the firebase.
The firebase function needs to resolve before you set the username property. Async the mounted function & await the firebase call
The data initialization looks a bit odd to me.
Usually data should be an Object
In Your case i would suppose it to look something like this:
data: {
username: 'whatever'
}
And further on there seems to be a missing , between data and mounted.
I created a fiddle that works
It is not a sfc but i think it is enough to make things clear.
