Render precompilled nunjucks (browserify+nunjucksify) with ampersand-view - nunjucks

Trying to render browserify+nunjucksify-ed precompiled templates in a an ampersand-view.
This works as expectd:
var tpl = require('app1/template-1.nunj');
console.log(tpl.render({name: 'flemming', isDancing: 'perhaps'}))
This does not:
var MainView = View.extend({
template: tpl.render,
bindings: {
'model.name': '[data-hook=name]'
}
});
The error i get is
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'dev' of undefined
AFAIK, this means that the this for the nunjucks is wrong. Ampersand-view sets itself as this for the rendering function, overshadowing what nunjucks expects this to be.
Any solutions?

Disregard this issue, I'm leaving just in case others have the same issue.
The problem is non-existent, as nunjucks needs to render the template before we set/pass it to the view. This way the first rendering will fill in all non-model (static) props, such as translations etc, and then the view handles all model-props.
...I think.

Getting window.checkout.quoteData or store code are undefined error when cart item count updated using ajax

I have created a custom page with free text ordering functionality and called custom add to cart API to add items to the cart.
Once the item is added I need to update the cart item count with updated quantity. I tried to use
require([
'jquery',
'Magento_Checkout/js/action/get-totals'
], function ($, getTotalsAction) {
'use strict';
var deferred = $.Deferred();
getTotalsAction([], deferred);
});
But It is throwing error:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'quoteData' of undefined at quote.js:34
And
url-builder.js:12 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'storeCode' of undefined at url-builder.js:12
Anything missing here?
I referred https://magento.stackexchange.com/questions/210517/error-javascript-define-magento2-window-checkout-quotedata-or-store-code-are-u which doesn't have any working solutions.
The issue is that quoteData lives in window.checkoutConfig - this data will only be set on the checkout pages, you won't have many of required js the modules loaded on a custom page that set this data correctly.
this may be a useful read: https://www.yireo.com/blog/2017-08-20-do-not-depend-on-window-checkoutconfig
I was able to achieve this for my scenario using the below code. It might help someone
require([
'Magento_Customer/js/customer-data'
], function (customerData) {
var sections = ['cart'];
customerData.invalidate(sections);
customerData.reload(sections, true);
});

Ckeditor plugin configuration not working

I have tried to add justify plugin to be able to align text right, left or centre. But after following the instructions in the documentation (http://apostrophecms.org/docs/tutorials/howtos/ckeditor.html), I wonder if the plugin should be located in a specific folder (mine is at public/modules/apostrophe-areas/js/ckeditorPlugins/justify/), as it disappears when the site is loaded, but if I include it in some other folder such as public/plugins/justify still doesn't work.
This is my code just in case: (located at lib/modules/apostrophe-areas/public/js/user.js)
apos.define('apostrophe-areas', {
construct: function(self, options) {
// Use the super pattern - don't forget to call the original method
var superEnableCkeditor = self.enableCkeditor;
self.enableCkeditor = function() {
superEnableCkeditor();
// Now do as we please
CKEDITOR.plugins.addExternal('justify', '/modules/apostrophe-areas/js/ckeditorPlugins/justify/', 'plugin.js');
};
}
});
Also, it would be nice to know how the plugin should be called at the Toolbar settings for editable widgets.
Thanks!
The URL you need is:
/modules/my-apostrophe-areas/js/ckeditorPlugins/justify/
The my- prefix is automatically prepended so that the public folders of both the original apostrophe-areas module and your project-level extension of it can have a distinct URL. Otherwise there would be no way for both to access their user.js, for instance.
I'll add this note to the HOWTO in question, which currently handwaves the issue by stubbing in a made-up URL.
As for how the plugin should be called, use the toolbar control name exported by that plugin — that part is a ckeditor question, not really an Apostrophe one. But looking at the source code of that plugin they are probably JustifyLeft, JustifyCenter, JustifyRight and JustifyBlock.
It turns out that it's not enough to simply call CKEDITOR.plugins.addExternal inside apostophe-areas. You also need to override self.beforeCkeditorInline of the apostrophe-rich-text-widgets-editor module and explicitly call self.config.extraPlugins = 'your_plugin_name';.
Here's what I ended up with:
In lib/modules/apostrophe-areas/public/js/user.js:
apos.define('apostrophe-areas', {
construct: function(self, options) {
// Use the super pattern - don't forget to call the original method
var superEnableCkeditor = self.enableCkeditor;
self.enableCkeditor = function() {
superEnableCkeditor();
// Now do as we please
CKEDITOR.plugins.addExternal('justify', '/modules/my-apostrophe-areas/js/ckeditorPlugins/justify/', 'plugin.js');
};
}
});
then in in lib/modules/apostrophe-rich-text-widgets/public/js/editor.js:
apos.define('apostrophe-rich-text-widgets-editor', {
construct: function(self, options) {
self.beforeCkeditorInline = function() {
self.config.extraPlugins = 'justify';
};
}
});
For some reason doing CKEDITOR.config.extraPlugins = 'justify' inside apostrophe-areas does not work, probably due to the way how CKEDITOR is initialized;
One more thing: this particular plug-in (justify, that is) does not seem to follow the button definition logic. It has button icons defined as images, whereas CKEditor 4.6 used in Apostrophe CMS 2.3 uses font-awesome to display icons. It means that the icons that ship with the justify module won't be displayed and you'll have to write your own css for each button individually.
There is another issue which you'll probably face when you finally enable the justify buttons. The built-in html sanitizer will be strip off the styles justify adds to align the content.
Apostrophe CMS seems to be using sanitize-html to sanitize the input, so changing CKEditor settings won't have any effect. To solve the issue, add the following to your app.js:
'apostrophe-rich-text-widgets': {
// The standard list copied from the module, plus sup and sub
sanitizeHtml: {
allowedAttributes: {
a: ['href', 'name', 'target'],
img: ['src'],
'*': ['style'] //this will make sure the style attribute is not stripped off
}
}
}
Thank you both for your help. After following both approaches of: locating the plugin at my-apostrophe-areas folder as well as editing editor.js on the apostrophe-rich-text widget (the sanitize.html file was already using that configuration), I got the plugin working. However, I was still having the issue with the icons.
I fixed that adding the Font Awesome icons that correspond to align-justify, align-right, align-left and align-center at the end of public/modules/apostrophe-areas/js/vendor/ckeditor/skins/apostrophe/editor.less

Dynamically adding custom elements to DOM Aurelia [duplicate]

It seems Aurelia is not aware when I create and append an element in javascript and set a custom attribute (unless I am doing something wrong). For example,
const e = document.createElement('div');
e.setAttribute('custom-attr', 'some value');
body.appendChild(e);
Is there a way to make Aurelia aware of this custom attribute when it gets appended?
A little background: I am creating an app where the user can select their element type (e.g. input, select, checkbox etc.) and drag it around (the dragging is done in the custom attribute). I thought about creating a wrapper <div custom-attr repeat.for="e of elements"></div> and somehow render the elements array, but this seemed inefficient since the repeater will go through all the elements everytime I push a new one and I didn't not want to create a wrapper around something as simple as a text input that might be created.
You would have to manually trigger the Aurelia's enhance method for it to register the custom attributes or anything Aurelia related really. And you also have to pass in a ViewResources object containing the custom attribute.
Since this isn't as straight forward as you might think, I'll explain it a bit.
The enhance method requires the following parameters for this scenario:
Your HTML as plain text (string)
The binding context (in our scenario, it's just this)
A ViewResources object that has the required custom attribute
One way to get access to the ViewResources object that meets our requirements, is to require the custom attribute into your parent view and then use the parent view's ViewResources. To do that, require the view inside the parent view's HTML and then implement the created(owningView, thisView) callback in the controller. When it's fired, thisView will have a resources property, which is a ViewResources object that contains the require-d custom attribute.
Since I am HORRIBLE at explaining, please look into the example provided below.
Here is an example how to:
app.js
import { TemplatingEngine } from 'aurelia-framework';
export class App {
static inject = [TemplatingEngine];
message = 'Hello World!';
constructor(templatingEngine, viewResources) {
this._templatingEngine = templatingEngine;
}
created(owningView, thisView) {
this._viewResources = thisView.resources;
}
bind() {
this.createEnhanceAppend();
}
createEnhanceAppend() {
const span = document.createElement('span');
span.innerHTML = "<h5 example.bind=\"message\"></h5>";
this._templatingEngine.enhance({ element: span, bindingContext: this, resources: this._viewResources });
this.view.appendChild(span);
}
}
app.html
<template>
<require from="./example-custom-attribute"></require>
<div ref="view"></div>
</template>

ckeditor how to allow for .insertHtml("<customTag myAttr='value'"></customTag>")

var currentDialog = CKEDITOR.dialog.getCurrent();
currentDialog._.editor.insertHtml("<customTag myAttr='var'></customTag>");
Throws an error, TypeError: Cannot read property 'isBlock' of undefined
If I try .insertHtml("<span>hello</span>") it works just fine.
How can I change ckeditor to allow me to specify my own custom html tags via .insertHtml()? I'd love to just change it to be something like <span class='custom'... or something like that, but I'm having to deal with legacy CMS articles. Using latest ckeditor. Thanks.
You need to modify CKEDITOR.dtd object so editor will know this tag and correctly parse HTML and process DOM:
CKEDITOR.dtd.customtag = { em:1 }; // List of tag names it can contain.
CKEDITOR.dtd.$block.customtag = 1; // Choose $block or $inline.
CKEDITOR.dtd.body.customtag = 1; // Body may contain customtag.
You need to allow for this tag and its styles/attrs/classes in Advanced Content Filter:
editor.filter.allow( 'customtag[myattr]', 'myfeature' );
Unfortunately, due to some caching, in certain situations you cannot modify DTD object after CKEditor is loaded - you need to modify it when it is created. So to do that:
Clone the CKEditor repository or CKEditor presets repository.
Modify core/dtd.js code.
And build your minified package following instructions in README.md - the only requirements are Java (sorry - Google Closure Compiler :P) and Bash.
PS. That error should not be thrown when unknown element is inserted, so I reported http://dev.ckeditor.com/ticket/10339 and to solve this inconvenience http://dev.ckeditor.com/ticket/10340.
I worked around this issue with a combination of createFromHtml() and insertElement()
CKEDITOR.replace('summary', { ... });
var editor = CKEDITOR.instances.summary;
editor.on('key', function(ev) {
if (ev.data.keyCode == 9) { // TAB
var tabHtml = '<span style="white-space:pre"> </span>';
var tabElement = CKEDITOR.dom.element.createFromHtml(tabHtml, editor.document);
editor.insertElement(tabElement);
}
}

Underscore throws an exception when template not available

I'm using underscore and backbone on a multi page site with a couple of underscore templates on each page. On my main view(cshtml) I load one javascript template like this http://cl.ly/GpFT and on my second view(cshtml) I use the same script setup but the javascript template is missing and then I get an error like this http://cl.ly/Gnrc
When I minify my scripts this will cause the script to abort. Is it possible to solve this in a nice way or do I need to load exactly the templates and scripts needed for each and every page?
You don't tell us what your views look like so I'll assume that you're doing something like this:
var V = Backbone.View.extend({
template: _.template($('#some-id').html()),
//...
});
and your views are raising TypeErrors when you're loading them. If there is no #some-id in the DOM, then you'll be saying _.templates(null) and that doesn't make any sense. An easy way around this to compile the template in the view's constructor instead:
var V = Backbone.View.extend({
initialize: function() {
this.template = _.template($('#some-id').html());
//...
},
//...
});
