Troubleshoot unstable site access caused by wrong TCP socket recycle setting

This example shows how I added google fonts Rubik as the default font family in a React project. Step 1: Get Google Fonts css code Go to Google Fonts, and search the target font ('Rubik' here); Click the found font to open the font family page, then click + Select this style button to choose ideal font styles. The selected font families with styles import code will appear on the right of this page; Find and copy the <link> or @import code for importing font family's stylesheet Step 2: Import the font css in /public/index.html Note that I don't use @font-face to add the font family here, I use the link tag to import the remote stylesheet. The code is added in the head part of the html file. Step 3: Extend added font families into the Tailwind default theme in tailwind.config.js Note that I don't override the default provided font families. And this will get the fallback font families once failure of loading customized fonts. Step 4: Set customized font family as the app's default font Add the following code in the root css file, mine is index.scss (the file which imports Tailwind utities) Reference https://tailwindcss.com/docs/font-family

This article records issues and solutions I experienced when using webpack at work. devServer configuration Webpack cannot lanuch default browser chrome automatically after running yarn dev or npm start, I have to input localhost:3000 at the address bar manally. Solution: Edit webpack.config.js My root route is not at localhost:3000, it is localhost:3000/demo/,then, each time I start the project, it says Cannot GET / Solution: Edit webpack.config.js, add openPage property: Get 404 Not found error when refreshing non-root route page manually. Reason: This is because the SPA uses client-side rendering and programming router navigation (inside the application, a route is a usually a component), and there is no request sending to the server when navigation inside the SPA. However, a manual refresh of non-root will send a request to the server, but no resource will be returned as the server-side rendering does except the root route request. Solution: As I use history style router(provided by react-router-dom), and the historyApiFallback configuration item of webpack is used for fixing this issue. or: Note: I found historyApiFallback: true doesn't work for me, this may be caused by I don't serve my devlopment env at / instead of /demo. By doing the above(both ways works): a non-existing route will fallback to root route automatically; programming routes can be put in the browser address bar and access them directly. assets loaders Failed to compile when using line comments (// comment content line) in the style file Solution: Just use block comments only(/* line or block comments */) instead of line comments(//). I use CTRL + /…

Intro If you have lint compliants as following when using ESLint( and plugins likeeslint-plugin-prettier) with Prettier, read this article. or Use semicolons in JavaScript In JavaScript, it is not mandatory to use a semicolon at the end of each line. However, I am opinionated with a semicolon to end each statement explicitly. I don't want to argue which is better. If you do not enforce semicolon usage (or omission) in any particular way, ignore this article. Code formater and beautifier tool Prettier is sticky to this style and enabled semi to true by default. Meanwhile, we usually combine a linter tool like ESLint to do static code checker, but ESLint has its own rules to format code which may not be consitent with Prettier. Different default semi rules However, ESLint's recommended rules don't like semicolons, and don't allow semicolons at the end of the code lines, and overrides Prettier's semi option setting. In the other word, the ASI(Automatical Semicolon Insertion) will not work even when we turn on Prettier's semi option as ESLint recommended rules turns it off by default. They conflict with each other. While using them together: When we run eslint to check the code, complaints come out as Prettier still expects semicolons while ESLint supressing the semicolons. This is really annoying. Turn on ESLint's semi rule So, what about turning on ESLint's semi rule in eslintrc.js? Yes, ASI is enabled, however, the linter still complains: The tooltip will appear on each semicolon after I apply the semi rule in the config file. I guess(I am not sure)…

Redux Redux is a predictable state container for JavaScript apps. As state in application becomes increasingly complicated for SAP, there might be more different types of state to manage: local created data which is not persisted to the server, UI data like UI elements properties, routes, spinners, paginations which determines the UI display; and server returned and cached data, etc. Redux attempts to make state mutations predictable for complicated application state by imposing certain restrictions on how and when updates can happen. These restrictions are reflected in the three principles of Redux. Three principles of Redux Single source of truth for application state: The global state of application is stored in an object tree within a single store; State is read-only: The state cannot be modified directly by views or network callbacks, the right way to mutate is to dispatch an action to notify the reducer to process. As all changes are centralised and happen one by one in a strict order, there are no subtle race conditions to watch out for; Changes are made with pure functions: Change state via reducers. A reducer is a pure function with two characteristics: It returns same result when the input parameters are the same; the only dependency of the returned data are the input parameters, and the result is consistent regardless of where/when it is called. no side-effects: the function will not do jobs like: modify external data, render DOM elements, execute network requests, IO operations. These characteristics provides assurance to make state predictable. Three core concepts of Redux Actions: an action…

Ways to share data between Vue components without middleware component props: parent --> child $parent, $child, ref and $refs: access parent, child or referred component data emit events: child (this.$emit('event_name', data)) ---> parent ( @event_name="eventHandler") $attrs/$listeners: pass comoponent props(v-bind) or events(v-on) downside level by level provide/inject: ancient component provides shared data for all the descendant components to use. Event Bus, $emit and $on: use an empty Vue instance as the global shared event bus. By means of events carried by the event bus, parent, child, sibling components can share data without restriction. or add Event Bus to Vue prototype property in main.js Web Storage API: HTML5 provides localStorage and sessionStorage API for data persistance for different scale and period. Thus, the page components can call these APIs to read/write data for sharing. slot-scope: Put slot-scope into template tag, and bind the template with data exposed by the child component. This allows the parent to render child component with different UI styles or data by the template slot. By this way, the parent component can used data inside the child component and render it with styles from parent itself. This is a very limited scope data sharing between parent and child components. Why and When to use Vuex? Ways to communicate between components mentioned above can be used according to different rscenarios. Some ways are strictly restricted by components relationship and are not flexible for global data sharing; Athough the Event Bus provides a lightweight way for share data globally, it's not easy to manage events and state when it's used…

The official definition of GraphQL: A query language for your API. GraphQL is a query language for APIs and a runtime for fulfilling those queries with your existing data. GraphQL provides a complete and understandable description of the data in your API, gives clients the power to ask for exactly what they need and nothing more, makes it easier to evolve APIs over time, and enables powerful developer tools. My underdtanding of GraphQL The initial impression of GraphQL to me is that it is one type of SQL language for images, however, this is completely wrong after I read the docs, and I get a better understanding of it by doing some practice. It's not used for picture/images queries, it is just a new open-source data query and manipulation language for APIs, originally developed by facebook. Most of developers know the popular REST API, and there are also other types of API specifications like JSONAPI, SOAP as well. GraphQL query language is used by clients to query data from a GraphQL API service. It's a API query language, not a database query language like SQL. Thus, it doesn't mean that the client uses GraphQL to query data from a database, it queries data from the GraphQL service. It's also a runtime, this means GraphQL can play a role as a server-side service layer for executing the client queries, by using a type system defined for the data. In fact, it isn't tied to any specific database or storage engine and is instead backed by the existing code and data at…

Scenario and issues If we have internal page data to update, we can implement it by calling component methods to update when the event is triggered, other than to do a whole page re-render. However, we need to call $router.push() method to navigate to a destionation page from another one, and this is my case: I make a component(a button) which is used in different pages to navigate to page A, the component calls $router.push() to jump to page A , Meanwhile, this component is also used iniside page A, that means it's internal route jump to update a part of content in page A; I use the named route with params binding the changed data page A needs in $router.push(). By this way, page A can always get data from the named route and doesn't need to take care of these two different types of navigation. But the issue comes: I cannot do an internal update of page A when the I trigger the component in page A; To watch $route or use beforeRouteUpdate hook to capture changes in page A is not working. The route navigation doesn't trigger these functions, even when the passed params are changed in push(). More details about $route.push() method After trying some ways I fixed this issue and found more details about push() method, which may not be clearly elaborated in the official docs. push() methods returns a promise, so we can catch the error to get reasons when it fails. By adding try catch, I got this: Error: Avoided redundant navigation to…

I experienced the issue(mentioned in the article title) when using the push method of Vue router to redirect to a new URL when clicking on some anchors today. Usually, there are two typical ways to go to the new page(route) via using push method: The params passed by the first way(use params)will not be shown in the URL, so if we want to hide more details of the page, it's a better way. However, when I use this way, the web page turns out to be blank when I press F5 to update, as the page cannot get the route parameters which are used as data request params. The route params won't be persistant via this way, they will not exist when page reloads. This is becuase the named route is not pushed into history records, the browser is not able to find a record to reload. Ways to fix To fix this, we can use the second way(use query) to push route params and the parameters will persit even if a F5 update happens. However, the parameters will show up in the URL, and object parameters with several level-depth will turn into long garbled code. I don't want this as I hope to keep the URL address clean. How about the other ways to fix this? I tried to create another state in the Vuex store to keep the data, but this doesn't work as well unless I use the plugin vuex-persistedstate. I checked its github repo and find it uses localStorage, sessionStorage or cookie to persist data. so…

A Router is commonly known as a hardware device for computer networking, we all have wired or wireless routers at home, offices or other locations for devices networking. Router in Web Application We'll get different page content from a site when we change the string after the domain name in a URL, or click the menu items of a webpage. This navigation feature of web apps is done by a Router middleware of the modern web app as well. Accessing to a specific URL path will trigger a respective route response from the web app's routing table, the web app usually uses a specific Router middleware to manage all the routes, no matter whether the routing pages are rendered from server-side or client-side. For example: Backend routing: in Node.js, we can implement routes by express.js, and each endpoint will render the template to html for client-side, each time accessing to a new path(route), there will be a new request sent to the backend. Front-end routing: React.js and Vue.js have their own favorable routing middleware from their ecosystem: react-router and vue-router respectively. The front-end routing is always used for SPA(single page application) website, as it prevents un-neccessary requests to the server, the change of a route accessing will lead to only partial internal view change inside the page, which is usually related to a specific component view of the web app, and whole page rendering is avoided. Understanding Routing mechanism in SPA by Analogy We don't care whether it is called as a path, a uri, or a route when browsing…
