[Solved] nodebb crashing after pulling latest

[skaughtx0r]

I just pulled the latest from github and now my forum is crashing. It appears to be tied to my static-page plugin filter:scripts.get hook. If I remove that hook, it doesn't crash.

Here's the dump:

Also, here's my hooks from plugin.json

"hooks": [
	{ "hook": "filter:admin.header.build", "method": "init.admin.addNavigation", "callbacked": false },
	{ "hook": "filter:admin.create_routes", "method": "init.admin.addRoute", "callbacked": true },
	{ "hook": "filter:header.build", "method": "init.global.addNavigation", "callbacked": false },
	{ "hook": "filter:server.create_routes", "method": "init.global.addRoute", "callbacked": true },
	{ "hook": "filter:scripts.get", "method": "init.global.addScripts", "callbacked": false },
	{ "hook": "action:app.load", "method": "init.load", "callbacked": false }
]

@skaughtx0r Can you let me know the array that you are returning to NodeBB in the scripts.get hook?

[skaughtx0r]

@julian This is what I have in addScripts, but it appears to be crashing before it ever gets called.

addScripts: function(scripts, callback) {
	return scripts.concat([
		"plugins/nodebb-plugin-static-leaguezone/js/transparency.min.js",
		"plugins/nodebb-plugin-static-leaguezone/js/leagueZone.js",
		"plugins/nodebb-plugin-static-leaguezone/js/results.js",
		"plugins/nodebb-plugin-static-leaguezone/js/leagues.js"
	]);
}

Can you paste your staticDir(s) from your config please? The recent updates have changed the plugin directories like so:

 "staticDirs": {
        "public": "public"
},

and in addScripts:

'plugins/public/lib/designer.js',

[skaughtx0r]

@psychobunny Oh, maybe I didn't understand the new staticDirs mapping.

I had it set to:

"staticDirs": {
    "public":"public"
}

OK, just did a test and changing "staticDirs" worked. It's not super obvious what the objects meant, since the example I saw just had "public":"public".
I changed it to be:

"staticDirs": {
    "pathName": "actualDirectory"
}

and that worked.

Here's what my working config looks like:

"staticDirs": {
    "leaguezone":"public"
}

and addScripts:

addScripts: function(scripts, callback) {
    return scripts.concat([
        "plugins/leaguezone/js/transparency.min.js",
        "plugins/leaguezone/js/leagueZone.js",
        "plugins/leaguezone/js/results.js",
        "plugins/leaguezone/js/leagues.js"
    ]);
}

Thanks!

Glad you figured it out @skaughtx0r
