Issue with loading documents in a studio setup resolved by adding schemaType

8 replies
Last updated: Dec 24, 2021
I ran into an interesting issue. A studio setup that worked fine so far has stopped working.ProductPages are collected by type via the structure builder like so:


S.listItem()
  .title("Product Pages")
  .id("productPages")
  .icon(Icon)
  .child(
    S.documentTypeList("productPage")
      .title("Product Pages")
      .menuItems(S.documentTypeList("productPage").getMenuItems())
      .filter("_type == $type")
      .params({ type: "productPage" })
      .child((documentId) =>
        S.document()
          .documentId(documentId)
          .views(Views({ type: "productPage" }))
      )
)
As mentioned this worked fine so far, but now clicking on one of the items results in an indefinite "Loading document..."

If I reenable collecting all the entries via


S.list()
    .title("Content")
    .items([
      ...S.documentTypeListItems(),
    ])
it again loads the document successfully.

Downgrading / upgrading seems to have not resolved the issue. I also logged out and in again via the CLI.
The dev tools don't provide any useful output besides a structure warning:

Structure warning: document type (
schemaType
) will be required for document nodes in the near future! At:
root > productPages > 82661311-f27a-44f1-88b0-bf756a78a28b"

Hi
user L
- happy holidays! In your custom views, could you try adding a 
schemaType
? e.g. 
.schemaType('productPage')

This indeed worked:
.child((documentId) =>
        S.document()
          .documentId(documentId)
          .views(Views({ type: "productPage" }))
          .schemaType("productPage")
      )

(
views(Views({ type: "productPage" }))
was part of the code earlier as well)

! Much appreciated 🙂

If this is reproducible across different setups, that could mean, that the warning message should possibly be adapted?
At the moment it doesn't suggest anything being broken and feels more like a deprecation warning.

Glad to hear it's working! And I think you're spot on: the warning suggests it shouldn't break (yet). We'll look into fixing this. Thanks for the feedback 🙂
