How to create Custom Pages?

Hello @luisherranz, I tried your solution but when I am typing any id I get a 404 page :confused:

  const helloHandler = {
  pattern: "/hello/:id",
  func: ({ state, link, params }) => {
    state.source.data[link].isHello = true;
    state.source.data[link].id = params.id;
  },
};

And

packages: [
{
  name: "@awsmin/f1",
  state: {
    theme: {
      menu: [
        ["Nos occasions", "/"],
        ["L'atelier", "/category/nature/"],
        ["Nos services", "/category/travel/"],
        ["Qui sommes-nous", "/tag/japan/"],
        ["ActualitƩs", "/about-us/"],
        ["Nous contacter", "/about-us/"],
      ],
      featured: {
        showOnList: false,
        showOnPost: false,
      },
    },
  },
  actions: {
    theme: {
      init: ({ libraries }) => {
        // Use html2react to process the <img> tags inside the content HTML.
        // libraries.html2react.processors.push(image);

        // Add the handler to wp-source.
        libraries.source.handlers.push(helloHandler);
      },
    },
  },

and my index.js I create a component with sample h1 at that time

<Switch>
      <Loading when={data.isFetching} />
      <List when={data.isArchive} />
      <HomeScreen when={data.isHome} />
      <VehicleScreen when={data.isOffers} />
      <Entretien when={data.isEntretien} />
      <Hello when={data.isHello} />
      <Jobs when={data.isAwsmJobOpenings} />
      <Page when={data.isPage} />
      <Post when={data.isPostType} />
      <PageError when={data.isError} />
    </Switch>

Hi @floriandupuis1996,

Can you please provide a repo or code-sandbox with your code? This is especially helpful to find solutions of technical issues with specific code

I use it, can fix this problem !

const profilePage = {
	name: 'member',
	priority: 1,
	pattern: '/member/:user',
	func: ({ state, link, params }) => {
		state.source.data[link].isProfile = true
		state.source.data[link].user = params.user
	},
}
]
	actions: {
		actions: {
			init: ({ libraries }) => {
				libraries.source.handlers.push(profilePage)
			},
		},
		theme: {
...
}

Yeah I succeed

Hey @floriandupuis1996 itā€™d be great if you can share with the rest how you finally solved and what was the issue you were having :smiley:

Ths thing is I had handler in frontity.settings.js instead of indexā€¦ now I am looking to get the param.id display on my component but this is not easy taskā€¦

any idea ?

Hi there, Iā€™m Pilar. Iā€™m starting with Frontity and Iā€™ve struggling with custom handlers, custom pages and custom queries, browsing this thread and many others, reading the docs, etc. Iā€™ve finally made it work so I wanted to share the code in case itā€™s helpful for anyone, as yours has been to me :slight_smile:

The base of my project is a large set of Galician traditional sayings or ā€œrefranesā€. The main user interaction will be the search (and also copying the text of the quote, sharing it as an image, etc. but thatā€™s another story). For SEO reasons I want some popular searches to be on the menu and have their own url, like ā€œsayings-about-winterā€ (instead of ā€œdomain.com/?s=winterā€), without having to categorize them. So I created a custom handler that takes the last word of that url pattern, whatever it is, (in this case, ā€œwinterā€) and shows all the posts that contain that specific word.

Thatā€™s how I achieved it, I donā€™t know if itā€™s a better way to to do it? It would be simpler with the future method described here, but for now itā€™s working :slight_smile:!

In mars-theme/src/index.js:

import Theme from "./components";
import image from "@frontity/html2react/processors/image";
import iframe from "@frontity/html2react/processors/iframe";

const searchUrls = {
  priority: 1,
  pattern: "/sayings-about-:search",
  func: async ({ link, params, state, libraries, force }) => {
    
    const response = await libraries.source.api.get({
      endpoint: "posts",
      params: { search: params.search }
    });

    const items = await libraries.source.populate({
      response,
      state,
      force,
    });    

    Object.assign(state.source.data[link], {
      isSearchUrl: true,
      //add queried posts to data
      items,
    });

  }
}
const marsTheme = {
  name: "@frontity/mars-theme",
  roots: {
    theme: Theme,
  },
  state: {
    theme: {

      },
    },
  },
  actions: {
    theme: {   
      init: ({ libraries }) => {
        libraries.source.handlers.push(searchUrls);
      },    
    },
  },
};

export default marsTheme;

In src/components/index.js:

<Switch>
  <Loading when={data.isFetching} />
  <List when={data.isArchive} />
  <Post when={data.isPostType} />
  <ListSearch when={data.isSearchUrl} />
</Switch>

In components/list/list-search.js:

const ListSearch = ({ state, libraries, link }) => {
    const data = state.source.get(state.router.link);
    return (
      <Container>
        {data.items.map(({ type, id }) => {
          const item = state.source[type][id];
          // Render one Item component for each one.
          return <Item key={item.id} item={item} />;
        })}
        <Pagination />
      </Container>
    );
};

Now if I go to /sayings-about-winter I see all the posts that contain the word ā€œwinterā€, and /sayings-about-spring shows all the posts containing ā€œspringā€, etc.

And I can add these links to the menu in frontity.settings.js (or anywhere else):

      "menu": [
        [
          "Home",
          "/"
        ],
        [
          "Sayings about winter",
          "/sayings-about-winter/"
        ],
        [
          "Sayings about spring",
          "/sayings-about-spring/"
        ],
      ],

Hi, here is my frontity page: http://api-tech.pl/ but I have problem with routes,

I canā€™t get to the site directly from the link for example http://api-tech.pl/kontakt give me 404;
also when Iā€™m for example first render FOTOGRAFIA > PODLASIE (PHOTOGRAPHY > PODLASIE)
looks good, and after refresh my gallery disappear.
I thought something wrong in Theme index.js and with handlers

 <Main>

 {data.isPodlasiePage && <PodlasiePage />} 
      {data.isFrontPage && <Home />}  
      {data.isGoryPage && <GoryPage />} 
      {data.isTimelapsePage && <TimelapsePage />}
      {data.isCommercialPage && <ComercialMoviesPage />}
      {data.isGoPodlasiePage && <GoPodlasiePage />}
      {data.isColaboPage && <CollaborationPage />}
      {data.isContactPage && <ContactPage />} 
      {data.isPolitykaPage && <PrivacyPolicyPage />}

<Switch>
  <Loading when={data.isFetching} />
  <List when={data.isArchive} />
  <PageError when={data.isError} />
</Switch>

and here:

         await actions.source.fetch("/contact");

         await actions.source.fetch("/gora");

        }

      },

    },

also in my index.js I used the approach below with same effect.

 <ContactPage when={data.isContactPage}/>
  <Home when={data.isFrontPage}/>
  <PodlasiePage when={data.isPodlasiePage}/>

Can anybody tell me how to get it right?

Looks like itā€™s working now, maybe you fixed it already

Hi @rborowski.shovv,

As @furrysmile2 says, your categories links seem to be working fine from both Server side and Client Side navigation

Is it working now for you?

Yes, itā€™s working well. Last thing is that after refreshing page for exmaple http://api-tech.pl/kontakt in Firefox, losing styles of material ui icons, and get huge
