In the docs you have an example of using this to get the query vars.
import wixLocation from 'wix-location';
// ...
let query = wixLocation.query; // {"species": "african-elephant"}
So if I want to extract the value from species how do I do that?
let species = query["species"];
or
let species = query["0"];
Any ideas?
So it all works, if you are not stupid like I am you will check data collection permissions before you bother other people with your shitty problems.
The code above works... Now I will write the showcase article.
Ok, continues to bother me and I continue to bother you all. But in the end you will be happy of the demo site I am creating.
The let = subject does not get any value but the below code gets the values.
export function api_Router(request) { let item = null; if (request.query.subject.includes("wixdemo")) { const seoData = { title: "WIX Sweden Demo - " + request.query.subject, description: "This is a description of " + request.query.subject + " page", noIndex: false, metaTags: { "og:title": request.query.subject, } }; let toInsert = { "title": request.query.subject }; wixData.insert("emails", toInsert) .then( (results) => { item = results; //see item below // Render item page console.log(item); }); return ok("api-page", item, seoData); } // Return 404 if item is not found return notFound(); }
Now the page renders but I do not get any data inserted in my data collection. Can someone help?
I can't get value from this url : https://www.wixsweden.se/api/?subject=wixdemo
The router is called api router.
the code in routers.js file is
export function api_Router(request) { // Get the data from query let subject = request.query.subject; console.log(subject); if (subject === "wixdemo") { //define SEO tags const seoData = { title: subject, description: "This is a description of " + subject + " page", noIndex: false, metaTags: { "og:title": subject, } }; } // Return 404 if item is not found return notFound(); }
It still throws the return notFound() at the bottom, any ideas? It seem straight forward.
So in a router that would be used as
let subject = request.query.species;
And that would correspond to ?species=giraff
And then the value of subject would be giraff?
you get a plain old json object.
so you can just use query.species to get the value, just like any other js property.
