Re: nodebb-plugin-charts

I am trying install charts plug-in but doesn' look like it's working.

Here is my log information:
10/5 08:11 [7728] - warn: [plugins/load] The following plugins may not b
e compatible with your version of NodeBB. This may cause unintended behaviour or
crashing. In the event of an unresponsive NodeBB caused by this plugin, run ./ nodebb reset -p PLUGINNAME to disable it.

• nodebb-plugin-charts
• nodebb-plugin-spam-be-gone

Using given the metadata in example in the body of post simply does not interpret and appears as the text data.

Any idea?

Thanks.

I have a dedicated MongoDB Server V4.0.10 running on Ubuntu 16.04. (12GB RAM).
My Nodebb V1.12.2 instance is running a separate server also Ubuntu but v18.10 (96GB RAM).

I am guessing it happens when my customized RSS plugin is running but it is intermittent.

Not sure if my DB's integrity is compromised but now I am getting crash dump more frequently (RSS is running every hour). Once it crashes I can not restart until I repair the DB (using --repair command).

Please advise if anybody has seen similar issues and can share how to reduce the frequency of these crashes or if possible to stabilize it.

Here are my logs:

Please note that my test/development HW is same configuration as MongoDB but running WIN-10 and I have both Nodebb and MongoDB co-located. I have not had experience any any issues on my development only in production.

Any suggestion is highly appreciated.

@Dan-Reyes I am not expert in Nodebb but getting stuck means number of things to me. I usually take some basic steps to get passed build/upgrade issues. You said you reset the plugin already. I would also clean the existing assets in \build\public and rebuild again. (Make sure back up your existing folder before experimenting)

Do you have any custom plugins? If you do, you may have an error that cases uglifier to silently crash. Temporarily modify uglify-es in node-module and change the following in parse.js and run to see if you get any parsing error:

function JS_Parse_Error(message, filename, line, col, pos) {
    this.message = message;
    this.filename = filename;
    this.line = line;
    this.col = col;
    this.pos = pos;

   // add following if not there
    console.log('*** Error: File:%s, Line:%d, Col:%d, Pos:%d, message:%s', filename, line, col, pos, message)
};

If you do have error clear it up and try again. Next, you may want to try the upgrade with different options to get to the bottom of this:

nodebb upgrade --help

Some tools like Atom have odd behavior and I recommend to quit them when upgrading. 

If nothing works, then you may want to install a fresh copy somewhere else and copy the content and overwrite your working instance. Again make sure to backup your data and custom work whatever you do.

@pitaj Thank you! I will give it a try.

Much appreciated.

@pichalite It is hard to answer such a questions since no premium and community collaboration is one of the strong reasons users choose open source products. That being said I like NodeBB and its community and I really like to see few more features and with the great talent behind this that is not far fetch. I am willing to pay what industry standard is to get the license for such premium features. I really need look into it to be able to give you my assessment on the price.

@PitaJ Great, thanks.

@PitaJ said in Choice of Grid Layout for Topics:

this is possible to do with a custom theme

Thanks for your reply @PitaJ .
I am rather thinking about a solution that is not limited to a specific theme and is not bugged down after each NodeBB release.

Will you consider creating a premium tier of official themes, built with committed features such as this one that can be purchased at a reasonable price? I am very concerned about maintenance of a set of custom features as your product evolves.

Re: New NodeBB Theme Layout

I hope this isn't off topic but, it would be terrific to have a way to switch between the grid and list layout at "topic level" for each "category" like these screen captures from Nextdoor classifieds.

@julian Any update on this feature?

Thanks.

@yariplus Thank you.

@yariplus
Thanks. What is the alternative are there any similar charting capability available?
