Adding Facebook login to Angular2-Meteor app - meteor

I am attempting to add Facebook authentication into an Angular2-Meteor app that started off as the Socially app from the tutorial and is slowly being modified into something less generic. There doesn't seem to be much posted on this particular use case however.
Note: I've asked in the Meteor forums and Gitter without success already.
Here are the steps I've taken:
Added Service Configuration package using
meteor add service-configuration
Created a file at server/services.ts containing (with my actual keys):
ServiceConfiguration.configurations.upsert({
"service": "facebook"
}, {
$set: {
"settings": {
"appId": “appid”,
“secret": "secret",
"loginStyle": "popup"
}
}
});
But on compile, I get an error saying
cannot find name 'ServiceConfiguration'
Which makes me think the package didn't install properly, but uninstalling/reinstalling it has not resolved the issue and it is showing in my .meteor directory.
Client side I'm calling this method with a click event on a button in a component that does have Meteor imported:
facebook() {
Meteor.loginWithFacebook((err) => {
if (err) {
//Handle error
} else {
//Handle sign in (I reroute)
this.router.navigate(['/home']);
}
})
Which throws the console error
meteor_1.Meteor.loginWithFacebook is not a function
But I suspect this is secondary to the fact that ServicesConfiguration isn't registering.
Git repo of the project is here: https://github.com/nanomoffet/ng2-starter with the referenced files being server/services.ts and client/app.ts

Currently it is not possible to use the ServiceConfiguration in TypeScript. What I did in my application was that I created a Javascript file in which I did make the ServiceConfiguration calls.
meteor add service-configuration
Create the file ./server/service-config.js
Meteor.startup(() => {
ServiceConfiguration.configurations.remove({
service: "facebook"
});
ServiceConfiguration.configurations.insert({
service: "facebook",
appId: '<APP_ID_YOU_GET_FROM FROM_FACEBOOK>',
loginStyle: "popup",
secret: '<SECRET_YOU_GET_FROM_FACEBOOK>'
});
});
I only tested it with Google and works fine for me.

Hangfire Dashboard broken after deployment - not load css and js

when working the development the dashboard is seen correctly, but when it is uploaded to production not load the css and js files
project version net core 3.1 api
hangfire error
my startup
app.UseHangfireDashboard("/hangfire", new DashboardOptions
{
Authorization = new[] { new CustomAuthorizationFilter() }
});
I tried the following without results, the server is windows and the authorization filter is simple... I'm not sure what the problem is... but it doesn't load the css and js files
app.Use((context, next) =>
{
// note : comment this to debug locally
context.Request.PathBase = "jobs";
return next();
});

Meteor Iron Router - no route definitions after Meteor v2.6 upgrade?

I've just upgraded my project to Meteor v2.6 along with all packages. Everything runs smoothly on local so I pushed to Galaxy where I'm promptly met by this error when trying to load my app:
Nothing in the codebase itself was changed, needless to say the routes have been defined and have been working fine before.
Here's an excerpt of the code:
import "/imports/ui/layouts/dashboardLayout/dashboardLayout";
import "/imports/ui/layouts/landingLayout/landingLayout";
import "/imports/ui/pages";
import "/imports/ui/pages/landing/landingHeader/landingHeader";
if (Meteor.isClient && Meteor.isProduction) {
Router.plugin("reywood:iron-router-ga");
}
Router.configure({
trackPageView: true,
});
Router.onAfterAction(() => {
window.scrollTo(0, 0);
});
Router.route("/", {
name: "landing",
layoutTemplate: "landingLayout",
action: function () {
this.render("landingHeader", { to: "header" });
this.render("landingContent", {
to: "content",
data: { signUp: !!this.params.query.signUp },
});
},
});
Below the diff in the versions file>
Given it runs fine locally but has issues in Production, I wonder whether the problem is this bit of code here:
if (Meteor.isClient && Meteor.isProduction) {
Router.plugin("reywood:iron-router-ga");
}
I don't know why it's there (it's not my code originally) but I've noticed that the reywood:iron-router-ga version seems to have been downgraded for some reason during the upgrade:
When I try to force an update to reywood:iron-router-ga in the vain hope that by getting it back to v2.0.1 it will start working again, I get the message that "The specified packages are at their latest compatible versions".
Has anyone encountered this before/any idea what's going on? I'm not a fan of forcing different behaviour in Production from Dev as that obviously makes testing difficult/pointless - unless there's a good reason for it. Can anyone shed any light?

Meteor.js: Using server.call when testing with Chimp

I'm having an issue triggering method calls while writing feature tests. I'm not actually given an error in the chimp terminal log, but the server.call line is where the failure is highlighted. I believe this might be related to the folder structure of the app (which I've loosely based on Letterpress) or the order in which the call is defined and then triggered. When I move the method call out to my main.js file (in the root folder of the app), it works without a problem.
hooks.js path: /app/tests/cucumber/features/support/hooks.js
(function(){
module.exports = function() {
this.Before(function() {
console.log("server calling");
server.call("fixtures/resetUsers"); //test stops here
});
};
})();
fixtures.js /app/packages/fixtures/fixtures.js
(function(){
'use strict';
Meteor.methods({
"fixtures/resetUsers": function() {
Meteor.users.remove({});
}
});
})();
package.js /app/packages/fixtures/packages.js
Package.describe({
name: 'forum:fixtures',
version: '0.0.1',
summary: '',
debugOnly: true
});
Package.onUse(function(api) {
api.versionsFrom('1.2.1');
api.use('ecmascript');
api.addFiles('fixtures.js', 'server');
});
Note: I originally didn't have the fixtures folder wrapped in the packages folder (it still didn't work then) but came across this post by #Xolv.io, the developers of Chimp.js who advised to do so.
with the new chimp, you can just use:
server.execute(function() {
// code you put here will run on the server
});
Check this repository for examples:
https://github.com/xolvio/automated-testing-best-practices/
In your sample repo, if you define a meteor method, 'something', you can call as server.call('something').
If you have a standard method definition (not even a meteor method), say something2=function(){}, with xolvio:backdoor, you can server.execute('something2'). ( calling chimp with --ddp switch)

Meteor pages blank for logged users on some systems

I have a Meteor app which works fine on my older MacBookPro (10.6.8 Snow Leopard) and also runs on a newer MacBook (10.10.5) but some of the pages don't show when I login. The same is true of my other friend who works on a similar MacBook. We get the browser warning:
Route dispatch never rendered. Did you forget to call this.next() in an onBeforeAction?
Here is a live and perfectly functional version of the app: http://sscprobs.meteor.com/
layout.js shows at all times with header, login buttons, etc.
When user is not logged in, the home route, for example, shows intro text as normal, but that text disappears upon login. It seems to me the trouble must lie with the accounts system and/or routing. Logging in with either Google or Twitter reproduces the problem equally (Facebook login is not configured for now).
I'm not sure how to troubleshoot. Here is my router.js:
Router.route('/', function() {
this.render('home');
});
Router.route('/user/:_username', {
name: 'user_profile',
data: function() { return Meteor.user();}
});
Router.route('/create', function() {
this.render('createEvent');
}, {
name: 'create'
});
Router.onBeforeAction(function () {
if (!Meteor.userId()) {
// if the user is not logged in, render the Login template
this.render('home');
} else {
// otherwise don't hold up the rest of hooks or our route/action function
// from running
this.next();
}
}, {
only: ['create']
});
Router.route('/insert', function() {
this.render('insertEvent');
});
Router.route('/events/:slug', {
name: 'event',
data: function() { return Events.findOne({slug: this.params.slug});}
});
Router.route('/useremail', function() {
this.render('userEmail');
}, {
name: 'userEmail'
});
Router._filters = {
hasCompletedProfile: function() {
if(!this.ready()) return;
var user = Meteor.user();
if (user && ! userProfileComplete(user)){
this.render('userEmail');
} else {
this.next();
}
},
};
// copied from Telesc.pe router.js
filters = Router._filters;
Router.onBeforeAction(filters.hasCompletedProfile);
Router.configure({
layoutTemplate: 'layout',
});

Translating views with HotTowel (Durandal framework) + VS2012

I develop an ASP.NET MVC solution with Durandal and Breeze. I need to translate frontend to french and dutch. How to proceed with Durandal/knockout?
In a classic ASP.NET MVC solution we have the opportunity to have the views rendered server side (thanks to razor).
Thanks for your help.
To expand on Rob's answer of trying the i18n.js plugin for require.js, here's the steps I followed (I'm working off the Durandal starter template in Visual Studio).
Download the i18n.js plugin and put it in the App folder.
Create an App/nls folder, which is where you will put the require.js resource bundles, e.g. App/nls/welcomeBundle.js.
define({
"root": {
"displayName": "Welcome to the Durandal Starter Project!"
},
"fr-fr": true
});
You'll see I added a line to tell require.js that there's a French version available. This will be created in App/nls/fr-fr/welcomeBundle.js, which I kinda did below (changed the to le :D)
define({
"displayName": "Welcome to le Durandal Starter Project!"
});
require.js needs to be configured initially with the locale (can't be done dynamically). So in the main.js file, I declare the below getLocale() function, which I use to configure the locale for require.js:
function getLocale() {
var locale = 'en-us';
if (localStorage) {
var storedLocale = localStorage.getItem('locale');
locale = storedLocale || locale;
}
return locale;
}
requirejs.config({
paths: {
'text': 'durandal/amd/text'
},
locale: getLocale()
});
In the welcome.js module I then load the bundle and use it for the displayName property:
define(function(require) {
var bundle = require('i18n!nls/welcomeBundle');
return {
displayName: bundle.displayName,
...
}
});
I then set the locale to French and reload the page via JavaScript:
localStorage.setItem('locale', 'fr-fr');
location.reload();
Hope that helps :)
Edit: 2013-04-04: I updated the above to initialize the locale in the main.js file and not in the shell.js module, as for some reason the locale wasn't being used correctly when loading the bundle in the shell module. Figure that it should be configured as soon as possible anyway.
