Is there a way to get the previous page location before going to the next page in IronRouter?
Is there an event I can use to fetch this information?
Thanks in advance.
Since Iron Router uses the usual History API, you can just use the plain JS method:
history.go(-1);
or
history.back();
Edit: or to check the previous path without following it:
document.referrer;
You can achieve the behavior you want by using hooks.
// onStop hook is executed whenever we LEAVE a route
Router.onStop(function(){
// register the previous route location in a session variable
Session.set("previousLocationPath",this.location.path);
});
// onBeforeAction is executed before actually going to a new route
Router.onBeforeAction(function(){
// fetch the previous route
var previousLocationPath=Session.get("previousLocationPath");
// if we're coming from the home route, redirect to contact
// this is silly, just an example
if(previousLocationPath=="/"){
this.redirect("contact");
}
// else continue to the regular route we were heading to
this.next();
});
EDIT : this is using iron:router#1.0.0-pre1
Apologies for bumping an old thread but good to keep these things up to date saimeunt's answer above is now deprecated as this.location.path no longer exists in Iron Router so should resemble something like the below:
Router.onStop(function(){
Session.set("previousLocationPath",this.originalUrl || this.url);
});
Or if you have session JSON installed (see Session JSON)
Router.onStop(function(){
Session.setJSON("previousLocationPath",{originalUrl:this.originalUrl, params:{hash:this.params.hash, query:this.params.query}});
});
Only caveats with thisis that first page will always populate url fields (this.url and this.originalUrl there seems to be no difference between them) with full url (http://...) whilst every subsequent page only logs the relative domain i.e. /home without the root url unsure if this is intended behaviour or not from IR but it is currently a helpful way of determining if this was a first page load or not

I have nextjs app with sentry. I want to add new api route, for example api/status, but I want to exclude it from being sent to sentry as it will clutter logs really fast and use my qouta.
I did a small research and it seems that there is an array of urls you can exclude from being tracked. It's called denyUrls. Read more. I have tried to add my url to this array, but it still tracks this url as part of events:
Sentry.init({
...
denyUrls: [
/api\/status/i,
],
...
});
Am I configuring something wrong or this array is not for the purpose of filtering everts.
If so, what's the best way to filter those? Other option I found which I will try next is beforeSend but it feels a bit overkill to simply exclude url. denyUrls feels like much better fit for what I am trying to achieve
I had the same issue and contacted the support for it. I am directly quoting the support here.
The BeforeSend and DenyUrl are options to filter error events, not transactions. For transaction events, please use the tracesSampler function as described on the page: https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/javascript/guides/nextjs/configuration/sampling/#setting-a-sampling-function.
Here is an example to drop all transactions that match a certain name:
tracesSampler: samplingContext => {
if(samplingContext.transactionContext.name == "GET /api/health"){
return 0.0 // never send transactions with name GET /api/health
}
return 0.2 // sampling for all other transactions
}
Note that you might need to customise the function above to better match your scenario.
I hope it will help you ;)
Have a nice day.
I have a pretty standard setup for my meteor app using IronRouter. What I am having problems with is this, I am attempting to redirect someone to a page based on some tokens in a url coming from a third party website but when the user is sent to their destination from the Accounts.onLogin callback via Router.go("some/fun/url"); the waitOn function runs endlessly.
Below is the pertinent part of the setup.
First the route that I am redirecting to:
Router.route("/shows/:show_acronym/sponsorships", {
name:"sponsorshipsSalesPortal",
data:function(){
return {show:Shows.findOne({acronym:this.params.show_acronym})};
},
waitOn:function(){
console.log("wait on");
return [Meteor.subscribe("show_by_acronym",this.params.show_acronym),Meteor.subscribe("catalogue_products_by_acronym", this.params.show_acronym)];
}
});
Next the relevant part of the onLogin hook:
Accounts.onLogin(function(){
if (Session.get("showToRedirectTo")){
console.log("sending to sponsorship portal");
var ur ="/shows/"+Session.get("showToRedirectTo")+"/sponsorships"
return Router.go(ur);
}
});
When it hits the redirect, the url changes and the message "wait on" prints in the console forever. Does anyone know of a solution to this? I would prefer to keep all of my subscriptions at the router level if at all possible.
Thanks
You should only return subscription cursors (Meteor.subscribe(*)) in the waitOn return array.
In your case, "this.params.show_acronym" is the problem...
Actually your code looks good, its been a while since i dont use Iron Router or Sessions.
But looking at the WaitOn, it seems okay, the problem can come from the Server side where show_by_acronym or catalogue_products_by_acronym its throwing an error, but in all the cases this should cause you to get a spinner loading forever, not a console.log("wait on"); printed forever.
so i think your Accounts.onLogin is causing this.
Try something like.
Accounts.onLogin(function(){
if (Session.get("showToRedirectTo")){
console.log("sending to sponsorship portal");
var ur ="/shows/"+Session.get("showToRedirectTo")+"/sponsorships"
Router.go(ur);
Session.set('showToRedirectTo', false)
}
});
sorry, I'm new to webdev and Meteor and I'm not quite sure of the correct terminology. I am using Meteor-Router to create routes in my Meteor app.
I'm trying to create a test restaurant app, so an entry in my database might be:
name: "Kentucky Fried Chicken"
type: "Fast Food"
On the main page of the app, you see a list of restaurants. But the user can click on any item on that list to get to a more detailed page.
I would rather that the urls don't look like:
/restaurant/123
but more so like:
/fast-food/kentucky-fried-chicken
/japanese/sushi-r-us
/italian/some-italian-restaurant-name
Is this possible to do with Meteor & Meteor-Router? Thank you!
Btw, right now my routes are very simple:
Meteor.Router.add({
'/': 'home',
'/admin': 'admin',
'/403': 'unauthorized'
});
You can use more complex routes than the one you're using now, like this:
Meteor.Router.add({
'/:type/:restaurant': function(type, restaurantName) {
var restaurant = Retaurants.findOne({type: type, name: restaurantName});
Session.set('restaurantFromUrl', restaurant);
// Now your restaurant is in the "restaurantFromUrl" Session
return 'restaurantPage';
}
});
The /:type and /:restaurant will be passed into the callback and be whatever you set them to in your URL. Oh, and you might want to add a /show-restaurant/type/name/ also, else all urls (that aren't set up in other routes) that match the patter "/whatever/url" will try to get a restaurant.
Everything you need to know is here: https://github.com/tmeasday/meteor-router
Oh, and this is just an example. Haven't tested it but it should work.
Current route package for Meteor that most people use is: Iron Router
I'm following this fantastic tutorial on customizing login found as the answer on this post - http://goo.gl/VLO34 - but it's not working for me.
I copied all the files verbatim, and even added supplementary smart packages such as underscore _.pick, and http Meteor.http.get just in case it was required, and mistakenly left out.
Anyhoo - I get github to authorize my app, but Meteor.users in the web console and db.users.findOne() on the local mongo instance show that Accounts.OnCreateUser() didn't add any new information to my user profile [that I'm pulling in from github]. In other words, {{currentUser.profile.avatar_url}} and {{currentUser.profile.login}} won't reveal anything following that tutorial. So I get blank info on the screen.
I tried that screencasts first attempt, and noticed that {loginButtons}} returns values for {{currentUser.profile.login}}. I've reviewed the code many times for typos, but feel that something is quite off with Accounts.onCreateUser(fn)...
I'm using Meteor 0.5.7, and if anyone else has experienced this problem following that screencast, please let me know. Thanks,
EDIT: I've deployed the project to - http://rptest-customlogin.meteor.com/.
Author of the screencast here. And as of a few seconds ago, a new user on your site :-). So, it looks like login is working on your site. But I'm guessing what's happening in your app is the login info isn't available yet at the time of rendering or at the time you're printing to the console. The reason is that all of that info is being populated asynchronously. It takes a few seconds for the process to complete. If you're relying on Meteor.user().profile data in your templates you need to check first if the login process is still underway.
To do that, you can use either the Meteor.loggingIn() javascript function or the {{#if loggingIn}} handlebars block helper. That function is "reactive" which means once the result changes from true to false your UI will update. So the template might look something like this:
<template name="loginDependentWidget">
{{#if loggingIn}}
Logging In
{{else}}
{{currentUser.profile.avatar_url}}
{{/if}}
</template>
Does this help?
Might be a typo but Accounts.OnCreateUser(fn); should be Accounts.onCreateUser(fn);
Meteor docs: http://docs.meteor.com/#accounts_oncreateuser
And then another post on the same subject:
Meteor login with external service: how to get profile information?
EDIT:
Posting as edit due the formatting of the below piece of code.
In the meantime I have got it running on my own project with this piece of code:
Accounts.onCreateUser(function(options, user) {
if(!options || !user) {
console.log('error creating user');
return;
} else {
if(options.profile) {
user.profile = options.profile;
}
}
return user;
});
Which is working just fine. Have you placed the Accounts.onCreateUser(); on the server?
I am having an issue with call Drupal node.save using MooTool's JSONP. Here is an example.
Here is my request:
callback Request.JSONP.request_map.request_1
method node.save
sessid 123123123123123
node {"type":"blog","title":"New Title","body":"This is the blog body"}
Here is my result
HTTP/1.0 500 Internal Server Error
I got this working before, but i used AMFPHP and was able to send objects to drupal. I am assuming that this has to do with Drupal expecting an object, but since it is a GET it gets transformed as a string. Is there any way of getting around this with out hacking the code?
Here is my code:
$('newBlogSubmit').addEvent('click', function()
{
var node = {
type : "blog",
title:"New Title",
body :"This is the blog body"
}
var string = JSON.encode(node);
string.escapeRegExp()
var sessID = _sessID;
DrupalService.getInstance().node_save(string, sessID, drupal_handleBlogSubmit);
});
My Drupal Service JS Code:
//NODE
DrupalService.prototype.node_save = function(node, sessid, callback){
var dataObj = {
method : "node.save",
sessid : sessid,
node : node
}
DrupalService.getInstance().request(dataObj, callback);
}
//SEND REQUEST AND CALLBACK FUNCTION
DrupalService.prototype.request = function(dataObject, callback){
new JsonP('http://myDrupalSite.com/services/json', {data: dataObject,onComplete: callback}).request();
}
I am trying to connect the dots, but not too familiar with Drupal, but i would guess all I need to do is turn the string back into an object. Any ideas where I should be looking, or if there is an existing patch?
A first question could be why you use mootools since Drupal comes with jQuery and use it extensively throughout the different modules and Drupal core itself.
Anyways I don't know mootools so can't help you there, but if your request in ending in a internal server error, you have a problem with your drupal code or your js code. So even if I knew exactly what you were doing, I couldn't tell you the problem without looking at the drupal code for your http://myDrupalSite.com/services/json callback.
In general, what you want to make sure is:
You make a POST request, as drupal will cache get's and the semantic of this, is that you are posting data - the node - to the server.
Your data should be sent as post params, this will make them end up in the PHP $_POST variable
Your callback should validate the data and act accordingly, creating a node when the data is intact. You don't need session id's since the script will have the same session the browser has.
I've answered a similar question in detail, which was about altering a field instead of saving a node, but much of the work is still the same. You can take a look on the post, although this is with jQuery and not Mootools.
