Issue with styled-components causing crashes in Sanity Studio after upgrade

19 replies
Last updated: Dec 7, 2020
Just upgraded from 
1.149.x
-> 
1.150.5
and our studio keeps crashing. Seems to be realated to us using styled-components to do some styling for blockEditor-rendering. This worked smoothly on the previous versions 😿

Minimal example:
Crashes:

import styled from 'styled-components';

const H2Style = styled.span`
  font-size: 2rem;
`;

export default {
  title: 'Rich Text Test',
  name: 'richTextTest',
  type: 'array',
  of: [
    {
      type: 'block',
      styles: [
        { title: 'MyTitle', value: 'h2', blockEditor: { render: H2Style } }
      ]
    }
  ]
};
Works:

import styled from 'styled-components';

const H2Style = styled.span`
  font-size: 2rem;
`;

export default {
  title: 'Rich Text Test',
  name: 'richTextTest',
  type: 'array',
  of: [
    {
      type: 'block',
      styles: [
        { title: 'MyTitle', value: 'h2', blockEditor: { render: props => props.children } }
      ]
    }
  ]
};
*edit: tried to clarify with new example

friendly reminder 😊
Sep 7, 2020, 8:18 AM
Thanks Daniel, noted! If I’m understanding correctly, this only occurs when loading styled components? i.e. if you remove the import and what’s below, the error disappears?
Sep 7, 2020, 8:57 AM
Yep, that is correct! 🙂
Sep 7, 2020, 9:01 AM
Rewrote the example to clarify 🙂
Sep 7, 2020, 9:32 AM
That’s useful context, thanks! I’ll forward this to the team as it seems like a bug to me. Will keep you posted 🙂
Sep 7, 2020, 9:33 AM
Any update on this issue? 🙂

Hi, any update on this?

Not yet, but it’s with the team. I expect us to have an update before the end of the week. (Sorry for being a bit slow to keep you posted)

Any update on this or should we make efforts to write us out of styled-components?
Nov 25, 2020, 7:58 AM
Hi Daniel! I understood that this was resolved - weren't you the person in touch with Benedicte about this error around mid-October? I resolved it with her and I believe she forwarded it at the time. Do let me know if you're not that person and I'll dig up the solution! 😄
Nov 25, 2020, 8:02 AM
Here's the solution I got working at the time:
import React from 'react'
import styled from 'styled-components'
const H2Style = styled.span`
  font-size: 2rem;
`
export default {
  title: 'Rich Text Test',
  name: 'richTextTest',
  type: 'array',
  of: [
    {
      type: 'block',
      styles: [
        { title: 'MyTitle', value: 'h2', blockEditor: { render: props => <H2Style>{props.children}</H2Style> } }
      ]
    }
  ]
}
Or if you think this is cleaner:

import React from 'react'
import styled from 'styled-components'
const H2Style = styled.span`
  font-size: 2rem;
`
const H2StyleRender = props => (
  <H2Style>{props.children}</H2Style>
)
export default {
  title: 'Rich Text Test',
  name: 'richTextTest',
  type: 'array',
  of: [
    {
      type: 'block',
      styles: [
        { title: 'MyTitle', value: 'h2', blockEditor: { render: H2StyleRender } }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Hi Peter, thats right, Benedicte suggested this solution and I was super pumped, but I think we ended up experiencing some buggy behavior when we tried it out. I can do a new test and see if I missed something, or come back to you with a better report 🙂 Thanks for the suggestion!
Nov 25, 2020, 8:22 AM
Ah, sorry to hear it didn't end up working smoothly. Please do let me know if the issue persists so we can investigate further. Should be possible to get it to work with styled components 🙂
Nov 25, 2020, 8:31 AM
Looks like its working now Peter, thanks! Not sure what bug I was experiencing last time, but there seems to have been some changes with the blockEditor-render api which might have confused me. Anyway, thanks for the help 🎉
