## 16. Code Comments Language
|
||||
|
||||
**All code comments must be in English**, regardless of the user's language. This ensures:
|
||||
|
||||
- Consistent codebase for international collaboration
|
||||
- Better compatibility with AI tools
|
||||
- Easier code review and maintenance
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// ✅ GOOD: English comments
|
||||
function calculateTotal(items: Item[]): number {
|
||||
// Sum up all item prices
|
||||
return items.reduce((sum, item) => sum + item.price, 0);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// ❌ BAD: Non-English comments
|
||||
function calculateTotal(items: Item[]): number {
|
||||
// Additionner tous les prix des articles
|
||||
return items.reduce((sum, item) => sum + item.price, 0);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This rule applies to:
|
||||
|
||||
- Inline comments
|
||||
- Function/class documentation (JSDoc)
|
||||
- Block comments explaining logic
|
||||
- TODO/FIXME notes
|
||||
- Commit messages (covered in Git Workflow section)

## 🏗️ CRITICAL ARCHITECTURE PATTERNS
|
||||
## 🐛 CRITICAL: Project.json Structure - Missing `graph` Object (Jan 9, 2026)
|
||||
|
||||
These fundamental patterns apply across ALL Noodl development. Understanding them prevents hours of debugging.
|
||||
### The Silent Crash: Cannot Read Properties of Undefined (reading 'comments')
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
**Context**: Phase 0 TASK-010 - New project creation failed with `TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'comments')`. After three previous failed attempts, the root cause was finally identified: incorrect JSON structure in programmatic project creation.
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔴 Editor/Runtime Window Separation (Jan 2026)
|
||||
**The Problem**: The programmatically generated project.json had `nodes` array directly in the component object, but the schema requires a `graph` object containing `roots`, `connections`, and `comments`.
|
||||
|
||||
### The Invisible Boundary: Why Editor Methods Don't Exist in Runtime
|
||||
|
||||
**Context**: TASK-012 Blockly Integration - Discovered that editor and runtime run in completely separate JavaScript contexts (different windows/iframes). This is THE most important architectural detail to understand.
|
||||
|
||||
**CRITICAL PRINCIPLE**: The OpenNoodl editor and runtime are NOT in the same JavaScript execution context. They are separate windows that communicate via message passing.
|
||||
|
||||
**What This Means**:
|
||||
**Root Cause**: Misunderstanding of the project.json schema hierarchy:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
┌─────────────────────┐ ┌─────────────────────┐
|
||||
│ Editor Window │ Message │ Runtime Window │
|
||||
│ │ Passing │ │
|
||||
│ - ProjectModel │←-------→│ - Node execution │
|
||||
│ - NodeGraphEditor │ │ - Dynamic ports │
|
||||
│ - graphModel │ │ - Code compilation │
|
||||
│ - UI components │ │ - No editor access! │
|
||||
└─────────────────────┘ └─────────────────────┘
|
||||
Component
|
||||
├─ name
|
||||
├─ id
|
||||
├─ metadata
|
||||
└─ graph ← REQUIRED
|
||||
├─ roots ← Was "nodes" (WRONG)
|
||||
├─ connections
|
||||
└─ comments ← Error occurred here
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**The Broken Pattern**:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// ❌ WRONG - In runtime node code, trying to access editor
|
||||
function updatePorts(nodeId, workspace, editorConnection) {
|
||||
// These look reasonable but FAIL silently or crash:
|
||||
const graphModel = getGraphModel(); // ☠️ Doesn't exist in runtime!
|
||||
const node = graphModel.getNodeWithId(nodeId); // ☠️ graphModel is undefined
|
||||
const code = node.parameters.generatedCode; // ☠️ Can't access node this way
|
||||
|
||||
// Problem: Runtime has NO ACCESS to editor objects/methods
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**The Correct Pattern**:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// ✅ RIGHT - Pass ALL data explicitly via parameters
|
||||
function updatePorts(nodeId, workspace, generatedCode, editorConnection) {
|
||||
// generatedCode passed directly - no cross-window access needed
|
||||
const detected = parseCode(generatedCode);
|
||||
editorConnection.sendDynamicPorts(nodeId, detected.ports);
|
||||
|
||||
// All data provided explicitly through function parameters
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// In editor: Pass the data explicitly when calling
|
||||
const node = graphModel.getNodeWithId(nodeId);
|
||||
updatePorts(
|
||||
node.id,
|
||||
node.parameters.workspace,
|
||||
node.parameters.generatedCode, // ✅ Pass explicitly
|
||||
editorConnection
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Why This Matters**:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Silent failures**: Attempting to access editor objects from runtime often fails silently
|
||||
- **Mysterious undefined errors**: "Cannot read property X of undefined" when objects don't exist
|
||||
- **Debugging nightmare**: Looks like your code is wrong when it's an architecture issue
|
||||
- **Affects ALL editor/runtime communication**: Dynamic ports, code generation, parameter updates
|
||||
|
||||
**Common Mistakes**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Looking up nodes in graphModel from runtime
|
||||
2. Accessing ProjectModel from runtime
|
||||
3. Trying to call editor methods from node setup functions
|
||||
4. Assuming shared global scope between editor and runtime
|
||||
|
||||
**Critical Rules**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **NEVER** assume editor objects exist in runtime code
|
||||
2. **ALWAYS** pass data explicitly through function parameters
|
||||
3. **NEVER** look up nodes via graphModel from runtime
|
||||
4. **ALWAYS** use event payloads with complete data
|
||||
5. **TREAT** editor and runtime as separate processes that only communicate via messages
|
||||
|
||||
**Applies To**:
|
||||
|
||||
- Dynamic port detection systems
|
||||
- Code generation and compilation
|
||||
- Parameter updates and node configuration
|
||||
- Custom property editors
|
||||
- Any feature bridging editor and runtime
|
||||
|
||||
**Detection**:
|
||||
|
||||
- Runtime errors about undefined objects that "should exist"
|
||||
- Functions that work in editor but fail in runtime
|
||||
- Dynamic features that don't update when they should
|
||||
- Silent failures with no error messages
|
||||
|
||||
**Time Saved**: Understanding this architectural boundary can save 2-4 hours PER feature that crosses the editor/runtime divide.

## 🟡 Dynamic Code Compilation Context (Jan 2026)
|
||||
|
||||
### The this Trap: Why new Function() + .call() Doesn't Work
|
||||
|
||||
**Context**: TASK-012 Blockly Integration - Generated code failed with "ReferenceError: Outputs is not defined" despite context being passed via `.call()`.
|
||||
|
||||
**CRITICAL PRINCIPLE**: When using `new Function()` to compile user code dynamically, execution context MUST be passed as function parameters, NOT via `this` or `.call()`.
|
||||
|
||||
**The Problem**: Modern JavaScript scoping rules make `this` unreliable for providing execution context to dynamically compiled code.
|
||||
|
||||
**The Broken Pattern**:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// ❌ WRONG - Generated code can't access context variables
|
||||
const fn = new Function(code); // Code contains: Outputs["result"] = 'test';
|
||||
fn.call(context); // context = { Outputs: {}, Inputs: {}, Noodl: {...} }
|
||||
|
||||
// Result: ReferenceError: Outputs is not defined
|
||||
// Why: Generated code has no lexical access to context properties
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**The Correct Pattern**:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// ✅ RIGHT - Pass context as function parameters
|
||||
const fn = new Function(
|
||||
'Inputs', // Parameter names define lexical scope
|
||||
'Outputs',
|
||||
'Noodl',
|
||||
'Variables',
|
||||
'Objects',
|
||||
'Arrays',
|
||||
'sendSignalOnOutput',
|
||||
code // Function body - can reference parameters by name
|
||||
);
|
||||
|
||||
// Call with actual values as arguments
|
||||
fn(
|
||||
context.Inputs,
|
||||
context.Outputs,
|
||||
context.Noodl,
|
||||
context.Variables,
|
||||
context.Objects,
|
||||
context.Arrays,
|
||||
context.sendSignalOnOutput
|
||||
);
|
||||
|
||||
// Generated code: Outputs["result"] = 'test'; // ✅ Works! Outputs is in scope
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Why This Works**:
|
||||
|
||||
Function parameters create a proper lexical scope where the generated code can access variables by their parameter names. This is how closures and scope work in JavaScript.
|
||||
|
||||
**Code Generator Pattern**:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// When generating code, reference parameters directly
|
||||
javascriptGenerator.forBlock['set_output'] = function (block) {
|
||||
const name = block.getFieldValue('NAME');
|
||||
const value = javascriptGenerator.valueToCode(block, 'VALUE', Order.ASSIGNMENT);
|
||||
|
||||
// Generated code uses parameter name directly - no 'context.' prefix needed
|
||||
return `Outputs["${name}"] = ${value};\n`;
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// Result: Outputs["result"] = "hello"; // Parameter name, not property access
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Comparison with eval()** (Don't use eval, but this explains the difference):
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// eval() has access to surrounding scope (dangerous!)
|
||||
const context = { Outputs: {} };
|
||||
eval('Outputs["result"] = "test"'); // Works but unsafe
|
||||
|
||||
// new Function() creates isolated scope (safe!)
|
||||
const fn = new Function('Outputs', 'Outputs["result"] = "test"');
|
||||
fn(context.Outputs); // Safe and works
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Critical Rules**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **ALWAYS** pass execution context as function parameters
|
||||
2. **NEVER** rely on `this` or `.call()` for context in compiled code
|
||||
3. **GENERATE** code that references parameters directly, not properties
|
||||
4. **LIST** all context variables as function parameters
|
||||
5. **PASS** arguments in same order as parameters
|
||||
|
||||
**Applies To**:
|
||||
|
||||
- Expression node evaluation
|
||||
- JavaScript Function node execution
|
||||
- Logic Builder block code generation
|
||||
- Any dynamic code compilation system
|
||||
- Script evaluation in custom nodes
|
||||
|
||||
**Common Mistakes**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Using `.call(context)` and expecting generated code to access context properties
|
||||
2. Using `.apply(context, args)` but not listing context as parameters
|
||||
3. Generating code with `context.Outputs` instead of just `Outputs`
|
||||
4. Forgetting to pass an argument for every parameter
|
||||
|
||||
**Detection**:
|
||||
|
||||
- "ReferenceError: [variable] is not defined" when executing compiled code
|
||||
- Variables exist in context but code can't access them
|
||||
- `.call()` or `.apply()` used but doesn't provide access
|
||||
- Generated code works in eval() but not new Function()
|
||||
|
||||
**Time Saved**: This pattern prevents 1-2 hours of debugging per dynamic code feature. The error message gives no clue that the problem is parameter passing.

||||

||||

## 🎨 React Overlay Z-Index Pattern (Jan 2026)
|
||||
|
||||
### The Invisible UI: Why React Overlays Disappear Behind Canvas
|
||||
|
||||
**Context**: TASK-012 Blockly Integration - React tabs were invisible because canvas layers rendered on top. This is a universal problem when adding React to legacy canvas systems.
|
||||
|
||||
**CRITICAL PRINCIPLE**: When overlaying React components on legacy HTML5 Canvas or jQuery systems, DOM order alone is INSUFFICIENT. You MUST set explicit `position` and `z-index`.
|
||||
|
||||
**The Problem**: Absolute-positioned canvas layers render based on z-index, not DOM order. React overlays without explicit z-index appear behind the canvas.
|
||||
|
||||
**The Broken Pattern**:
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<!-- ❌ WRONG - React overlay invisible behind canvas -->
|
||||
<div id="react-overlay-root" style="width: 100%; height: 100%">
|
||||
<div class="tabs">Tab controls here</div>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<canvas id="legacy-canvas" style="position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0">
|
||||
<!-- Canvas renders ON TOP even though it's after in DOM! -->
|
||||
</canvas>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**The Correct Pattern**:
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<!-- ✅ RIGHT - Explicit z-index layering -->
|
||||
<div id="react-overlay-root" style="position: absolute; z-index: 100; pointer-events: none">
|
||||
<div class="tabs" style="pointer-events: all">
|
||||
<!-- Tabs visible and clickable -->
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<canvas id="legacy-canvas" style="position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0">
|
||||
<!-- Canvas in background (no z-index or z-index < 100) -->
|
||||
</canvas>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Pointer Events Strategy**: The click-through pattern
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Container**: `pointer-events: none` (transparent to clicks)
|
||||
2. **Content**: `pointer-events: all` (captures clicks)
|
||||
3. **Result**: Canvas clickable when no React UI, React UI clickable when present
|
||||
|
||||
**CSS Pattern**:
|
||||
|
||||
```scss
|
||||
#react-overlay-root {
|
||||
position: absolute;
|
||||
top: 0;
|
||||
left: 0;
|
||||
width: 100%;
|
||||
height: 100%;
|
||||
z-index: 100; // Above canvas
|
||||
pointer-events: none; // Transparent when empty
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
.ReactUIComponent {
|
||||
pointer-events: all; // Clickable when rendered
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Layer Stack** (Bottom → Top):
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
z-index: 100 ← React overlays (tabs, panels, etc.)
|
||||
z-index: 50 ← Canvas overlays (comments, highlights)
|
||||
z-index: 1 ← Main canvas
|
||||
z-index: 0 ← Background layers
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Why This Matters**:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Silent failure**: UI renders but is invisible (no errors)
|
||||
- **Works in isolation**: React components work fine in Storybook
|
||||
- **Fails in integration**: Same components invisible when added to canvas
|
||||
- **Not obvious**: DevTools show elements exist but can't see them
|
||||
|
||||
**Critical Rules**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **ALWAYS** set `position: absolute` or `fixed` on overlay containers
|
||||
2. **ALWAYS** set explicit `z-index` higher than canvas (e.g., 100)
|
||||
3. **ALWAYS** use `pointer-events: none` on containers
|
||||
4. **ALWAYS** use `pointer-events: all` on interactive content
|
||||
5. **NEVER** rely on DOM order for layering with absolute positioning
|
||||
|
||||
**Applies To**:
|
||||
|
||||
- Any React overlay on canvas (tabs, panels, dialogs)
|
||||
- Canvas visualization views
|
||||
- Debug overlays and dev tools
|
||||
- Custom editor tools and widgets
|
||||
- Future canvas integration features
|
||||
|
||||
**Common Mistakes**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Forgetting `position: absolute` on overlay (it won't stack correctly)
|
||||
2. Not setting `z-index` (canvas wins by default)
|
||||
3. Not using `pointer-events` management (blocks canvas clicks)
|
||||
4. Setting z-index on wrong element (set on container, not children)
|
||||
|
||||
**Detection**:
|
||||
|
||||
- React component renders in React DevTools but not visible
|
||||
- Element exists in DOM inspector but can't see it
|
||||
- Clicking canvas area triggers React component (wrong z-order)
|
||||
- Works in Storybook but invisible in editor
|
||||
|
||||
**Time Saved**: This pattern prevents 1-3 hours of "why is my UI invisible" debugging per overlay feature.

## 🚫 Legacy/React Separation Pattern (Jan 2026)
|
||||
|
||||
### The Wrapper Trap: Why You Can't Render Canvas in React
|
||||
|
||||
**Context**: TASK-012 Blockly Integration - Initial attempt to wrap canvas in React tabs failed catastrophically. Canvas rendering broke completely.
|
||||
|
||||
**CRITICAL PRINCIPLE**: NEVER try to render legacy vanilla JS or jQuery code inside React components. Keep them completely separate and coordinate via events.
|
||||
|
||||
**The Problem**: Legacy canvas systems manage their own DOM, lifecycle, and rendering. React's virtual DOM and component lifecycle conflict with this, causing rendering failures, memory leaks, and crashes.
|
||||
|
||||
**The Broken Pattern**:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// ❌ WRONG - Trying to wrap canvas in React
|
||||
function EditorTabs() {
|
||||
return (
|
||||
<div>
|
||||
<TabBar />
|
||||
<div id="canvas-container">
|
||||
{/* Can't put vanilla JS canvas here! */}
|
||||
{/* Canvas is rendered by nodegrapheditor.ts, not React */}
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
<BlocklyTab />
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Result: Canvas rendering breaks, tabs don't work, memory leaks
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**The Correct Pattern**: Separation of Concerns
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// ✅ RIGHT - Canvas and React completely separate
|
||||
|
||||
// Canvas rendered by vanilla JS (always present)
|
||||
// In nodegrapheditor.ts:
|
||||
const canvas = document.getElementById('nodegraphcanvas');
|
||||
renderCanvas(canvas); // Legacy rendering
|
||||
|
||||
// React tabs overlay when needed (conditional)
|
||||
function EditorTabs() {
|
||||
return tabs.length > 0 ? (
|
||||
<div className="overlay">
|
||||
{tabs.map((tab) => (
|
||||
<Tab key={tab.id} {...tab} />
|
||||
))}
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
) : null;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Coordinate visibility via EventDispatcher
|
||||
EventDispatcher.instance.on('BlocklyTabOpened', () => {
|
||||
setCanvasVisibility(false); // Hide canvas
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
EventDispatcher.instance.on('BlocklyTabClosed', () => {
|
||||
setCanvasVisibility(true); // Show canvas
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Architecture**: Desktop vs Windows Metaphor
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
┌────────────────────────────────────┐
|
||||
│ React Tabs (Windows) │ ← Overlay when needed
|
||||
├────────────────────────────────────┤
|
||||
│ Canvas (Desktop) │ ← Always rendered
|
||||
└────────────────────────────────────┘
|
||||
|
||||
• Canvas = Desktop: Always there, rendered by vanilla JS
|
||||
• React Tabs = Windows: Appear/disappear, managed by React
|
||||
• Coordination = Events: Show/hide via EventDispatcher
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Why This Matters**:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Canvas lifecycle independence**: Canvas manages its own rendering, events, state
|
||||
- **React lifecycle conflicts**: React wants to control DOM, canvas already controls it
|
||||
- **Memory leaks**: Re-rendering React components can duplicate canvas instances
|
||||
- **Event handler chaos**: Both systems try to manage the same DOM events
|
||||
|
||||
**Critical Rules**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **NEVER** put legacy canvas/jQuery in React component JSX
|
||||
2. **ALWAYS** keep legacy always-rendered in background
|
||||
3. **ALWAYS** coordinate visibility via EventDispatcher, not React state
|
||||
4. **NEVER** try to control canvas lifecycle from React
|
||||
5. **TREAT** them as separate systems that coordinate, don't integrate
|
||||
|
||||
**Coordination Pattern**:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// React component listens to canvas events
|
||||
useEventListener(NodeGraphEditor.instance, 'viewportChanged', (viewport) => {
|
||||
// Update React state based on canvas events
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// Canvas listens to React events
|
||||
EventDispatcher.instance.on('ReactUIAction', (data) => {
|
||||
// Canvas responds to React UI changes
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Applies To**:
|
||||
|
||||
- Canvas integration (node graph editor)
|
||||
- Any legacy jQuery code in the editor
|
||||
- Third-party libraries with their own rendering
|
||||
- Future integrations with non-React systems
|
||||
- Plugin systems or external tools
|
||||
|
||||
**Common Mistakes**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Trying to `ReactDOM.render(<Canvas />)` with legacy canvas
|
||||
2. Putting canvas container in React component tree
|
||||
3. Managing canvas visibility with React state instead of CSS
|
||||
4. Attempting to "React-ify" legacy code instead of coordinating
|
||||
|
||||
**Detection**:
|
||||
|
||||
- Canvas stops rendering after React component mounts
|
||||
- Multiple canvas instances created (memory leak)
|
||||
- Event handlers fire multiple times
|
||||
- Canvas rendering flickers or behaves erratically
|
||||
- DOM manipulation conflicts (React vs vanilla JS)
|
||||
|
||||
**Time Saved**: Understanding this pattern saves 4-8 hours of debugging per integration attempt. Prevents architectural dead-ends.

## 🎨 Node Color Scheme Must Match Defined Colors (Jan 11, 2026)
|
||||
|
||||
### The Undefined Colors Crash: When Node Picker Can't Find Color Scheme
|
||||
|
||||
**Context**: TASK-012 Blockly Integration - Logic Builder node caused EditorNode component to crash with "Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'text')" when trying to render in the node picker.
|
||||
|
||||
**The Problem**: Node definition used `color: 'purple'` which doesn't exist in Noodl's color scheme system. The EditorNode component expected a valid color scheme object but received `undefined`, causing the crash.
|
||||
|
||||
**Root Cause**: Noodl has a fixed set of color schemes defined in `nodelibraryexport.js`. Using a non-existent color name causes the node picker to pass `undefined` for the colors prop, breaking the UI.
|
||||
|
||||
**The Broken Pattern**:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// ❌ WRONG - 'purple' is not a defined color scheme
|
||||
const LogicBuilderNode = {
|
||||
name: 'Logic Builder',
|
||||
category: 'Logic',
|
||||
color: 'purple' // ☠️ Doesn't exist! Causes crash
|
||||
// ❌ WRONG - Missing graph wrapper, comments field
|
||||
const minimalProject = {
|
||||
name: name,
|
||||
components: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
name: 'App',
|
||||
ports: [],
|
||||
visual: true,
|
||||
visualStateTransitions: [],
|
||||
nodes: [
|
||||
// ☠️ Should be graph.roots, not nodes
|
||||
{
|
||||
id: guid(),
|
||||
type: 'Group'
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
// ComponentModel.fromJSON calls NodeGraphModel.fromJSON(json.graph)
|
||||
// But json.graph is undefined!
|
||||
// NodeGraphModel.fromJSON tries to access json.comments
|
||||
// BOOM: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'comments')
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**The Correct Pattern**:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// ✅ RIGHT - Use defined color schemes
|
||||
const LogicBuilderNode = {
|
||||
name: 'Logic Builder',
|
||||
category: 'CustomCode',
|
||||
color: 'javascript' // ✓ Exists and works
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// ✅ RIGHT - Complete structure with graph object
|
||||
const minimalProject = {
|
||||
name: name,
|
||||
components: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
name: 'App',
|
||||
id: guid(), // Component needs id
|
||||
graph: {
|
||||
// Graph wrapper required
|
||||
roots: [
|
||||
// Not "nodes"
|
||||
{
|
||||
id: guid(),
|
||||
type: 'Group',
|
||||
x: 0,
|
||||
y: 0,
|
||||
parameters: {},
|
||||
ports: [],
|
||||
children: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
id: guid(),
|
||||
type: 'Text',
|
||||
x: 50,
|
||||
y: 50,
|
||||
parameters: { text: 'Hello World!' },
|
||||
ports: [],
|
||||
children: []
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
],
|
||||
connections: [], // Required array
|
||||
comments: [] // Required array (caused the error!)
|
||||
},
|
||||
metadata: {} // Component metadata
|
||||
}
|
||||
],
|
||||
settings: {},
|
||||
metadata: {
|
||||
// Project metadata
|
||||
title: name,
|
||||
description: 'A new Noodl project'
|
||||
}
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Available Color Schemes** (from `nodelibraryexport.js`):
|
||||
**Why This Was Hard to Debug**:
|
||||
|
||||
| Color Name | Visual Color | Use Case |
|
||||
| ------------ | ------------ | ----------------------- |
|
||||
| `visual` | Blue | Visual/UI nodes |
|
||||
| `data` | Green | Data nodes |
|
||||
| `javascript` | Pink/Magenta | Custom code nodes |
|
||||
| `component` | Purple | Component utility nodes |
|
||||
| `default` | Gray | Generic/utility nodes |
|
||||
1. **Error message was misleading**: "reading 'comments'" suggested a problem with comments, not missing `graph` object
|
||||
2. **Deep call stack**: Error originated 3 levels deep (ProjectModel → ComponentModel → NodeGraphModel)
|
||||
3. **No schema documentation**: project.json structure wasn't formally documented
|
||||
4. **Template file was truncated**: The actual template (`project-truncated.json`) had incomplete structure
|
||||
5. **Multiple fix attempts**: Previous fixes addressed symptoms (path resolution) not root cause (structure)
|
||||
|
||||
**The Fix Journey**:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Attempt 1**: Path resolution with `__dirname` - FAILED (webpack bundling issue)
|
||||
- **Attempt 2**: Path resolution with `process.cwd()` - FAILED (wrong directory)
|
||||
- **Attempt 3**: Programmatic creation - FAILED (incomplete structure)
|
||||
- **Attempt 4**: Complete structure with `graph` object - SUCCESS ✅
|
||||
|
||||
**Required Fields Hierarchy**:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// Complete minimal project structure
|
||||
{
|
||||
name: string,
|
||||
components: [{
|
||||
name: string,
|
||||
id: string, // ← REQUIRED
|
||||
graph: { // ← REQUIRED wrapper
|
||||
roots: [...], // ← Was incorrectly "nodes"
|
||||
connections: [], // ← REQUIRED array
|
||||
comments: [] // ← REQUIRED array (error occurred here)
|
||||
},
|
||||
metadata: {} // ← REQUIRED object
|
||||
}],
|
||||
settings: {}, // ← REQUIRED object
|
||||
metadata: { // ← Project-level metadata
|
||||
title: string,
|
||||
description: string
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**How to Identify This Issue**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Error**: `Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'comments')`
|
||||
2. **Stack trace**: Shows `NodeGraphModel.fromJSON` at line accessing `json.comments`
|
||||
3. **Symptom**: Project creation appears to work but crashes when loading
|
||||
4. **Root cause**: `ComponentModel.fromJSON` passes `json.graph` to `NodeGraphModel.fromJSON`, but `json.graph` is `undefined`
|
||||
|
||||
**Critical Rules**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Always use an existing color scheme name** - Check nodelibraryexport.js for valid values
|
||||
2. **Match similar node categories** - Look at Expression/Function nodes for custom code
|
||||
3. **Test in node picker immediately** - Color crashes prevent the picker from opening
|
||||
1. **Components have `graph` objects, not `nodes` arrays directly** - The nodes live in `graph.roots`
|
||||
2. **Always include `comments` and `connections` arrays** - Even if empty, they must exist
|
||||
3. **Component needs `id` field** - Can't rely on auto-generation
|
||||
4. **Use actual template structure as reference** - Don't invent your own schema
|
||||
5. **Test project creation end-to-end** - Not just file writing, but also loading
|
||||
|
||||
**How to Verify**:
|
||||
**Related Code Paths**:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Find color definitions
|
||||
grep -A 20 "colors: {" packages/noodl-runtime/src/nodelibraryexport.js
|
||||
|
||||
# Search for similar nodes' color usage
|
||||
grep "color:" packages/noodl-runtime/src/nodes/std-library/*.js
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// The error chain:
|
||||
ProjectModel.fromJSON(json)
|
||||
→ calls ComponentModel.fromJSON(json.components[i])
|
||||
→ calls NodeGraphModel.fromJSON(json.graph) // ← json.graph is undefined!
|
||||
→ accesses json.comments // ← BOOM!
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Common Mistakes**:
|
||||
**Prevention**: When creating projects programmatically, always use this checklist:
|
||||
|
||||
- Using descriptive names like `'purple'`, `'red'`, `'custom'` - these don't exist
|
||||
- Assuming color names match visual appearance - `'javascript'` is pink, not beige
|
||||
- Forgetting that `category` and `color` serve different purposes
|
||||
- [ ] Component has `id` field
|
||||
- [ ] Component has `graph` object (not `nodes` array)
|
||||
- [ ] `graph.roots` array exists (not `nodes`)
|
||||
- [ ] `graph.connections` array exists (can be empty)
|
||||
- [ ] `graph.comments` array exists (can be empty)
|
||||
- [ ] Component has `metadata` object (can be empty)
|
||||
- [ ] Project has `settings` object (can be empty)
|
||||
- [ ] Project has `metadata` object with `title` and `description`
|
||||
|
||||
**Symptoms**:
|
||||
|
||||
- EditorNode crash: "Cannot read properties of undefined"
|
||||
- Node picker fails to open
|
||||
- Console shows errors about colors.text, colors.headerHighlighted
|
||||
- SVG icon errors (side effect of missing color scheme)
|
||||
|
||||
**Time Lost**: 30 minutes debugging what appeared to be an unrelated React component issue
|
||||
**Time Lost**: ~6 hours across three failed attempts before finding root cause
|
||||
|
||||
**Location**:
|
||||
|
||||
- Fixed in: `packages/noodl-runtime/src/nodes/std-library/logic-builder.js`
|
||||
- Color definitions: `packages/noodl-runtime/src/nodelibraryexport.js` (lines 165-225)
|
||||
- Task: Phase 3 TASK-012 Blockly Integration
|
||||
- Fixed in: `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/utils/LocalProjectsModel.ts` (lines 288-321)
|
||||
- Error source: `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/models/nodegraphmodel/NodeGraphModel.ts` (line 57)
|
||||
- Task: Phase 0 TASK-010 Project Creation Bug Fix
|
||||
- CHANGELOG: `dev-docs/tasks/phase-0-foundation-stabilisation/TASK-010-project-creation-bug-fix/CHANGELOG.md`
|
||||
|
||||
**Keywords**: color scheme, node picker, EditorNode crash, undefined colors, nodelibraryexport, color validation, node registration, custom nodes
|
||||
**Impact**: This was a P0 blocker preventing all new users from creating projects. The fix allows project creation to work correctly without requiring external templates.

## ⚙️ Runtime Node Method Structure (Jan 11, 2026)
|
||||
|
||||
### The Invisible Method: Why prototypeExtensions Methods Aren't Accessible from Inputs
|
||||
|
||||
**Context**: Phase 3 TASK-008 Critical Runtime Bugs - Expression node was throwing `TypeError: this._scheduleEvaluateExpression is not a function` when the Run signal was triggered, despite the method being clearly defined in the node definition.
|
||||
|
||||
**The Problem**: Methods defined in `prototypeExtensions` with descriptor syntax (`{ value: function() {...} }`) are NOT accessible from `inputs` callbacks. Calling `this._methodName()` from an input handler fails with "not a function" error.
|
||||
|
||||
**Root Cause**: Node definition structure has two places to define methods:
|
||||
|
||||
- **`prototypeExtensions`**: Uses ES5 descriptor syntax, methods added to prototype at registration time
|
||||
- **`methods`**: Simple object with functions, methods accessible everywhere via `this`
|
||||
|
||||
Input callbacks execute in a different context where `prototypeExtensions` methods aren't accessible.
|
||||
|
||||
**The Broken Pattern**:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// ❌ WRONG - Method not accessible from inputs
|
||||
const MyNode = {
|
||||
inputs: {
|
||||
run: {
|
||||
type: 'signal',
|
||||
valueChangedToTrue: function () {
|
||||
this._doSomething(); // ☠️ TypeError: this._doSomething is not a function
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
},
|
||||
prototypeExtensions: {
|
||||
_doSomething: {
|
||||
value: function () {
|
||||
// This method is NOT accessible from input callbacks!
|
||||
console.log('This never runs');
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**The Correct Pattern**:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// ✅ RIGHT - Methods accessible everywhere
|
||||
const MyNode = {
|
||||
inputs: {
|
||||
run: {
|
||||
type: 'signal',
|
||||
valueChangedToTrue: function () {
|
||||
this._doSomething(); // ✅ Works!
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
},
|
||||
methods: {
|
||||
_doSomething: function () {
|
||||
// This method IS accessible from anywhere
|
||||
console.log('This works perfectly');
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Differences**:
|
||||
|
||||
| Pattern | Access from Inputs | Access from Methods | Syntax |
|
||||
| --------------------- | ------------------ | ------------------- | --------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| `prototypeExtensions` | ❌ No | ✅ Yes | `{ methodName: { value: function() {...} } }` |
|
||||
| `methods` | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes | `{ methodName: function() {...} }` |
|
||||
|
||||
**When This Manifests**:
|
||||
|
||||
- Signal inputs using `valueChangedToTrue` callback
|
||||
- Input setters trying to call helper methods
|
||||
- Any input handler calling `this._methodName()`
|
||||
|
||||
**Symptoms**:
|
||||
|
||||
- Error: `TypeError: this._methodName is not a function`
|
||||
- Method clearly defined but "not found"
|
||||
- Other methods CAN call the method (if they're in `prototypeExtensions` too)
|
||||
|
||||
**Related Pattern**: Noodl API Augmentation for Backward Compatibility
|
||||
|
||||
When passing the Noodl API object to user code, you often need to augment it with additional properties:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Function/Expression nodes need Noodl.Inputs and Noodl.Outputs
|
||||
const noodlAPI = JavascriptNodeParser.createNoodlAPI(this.context.modelScope);
|
||||
|
||||
// Augment with inputs/outputs for backward compatibility
|
||||
noodlAPI.Inputs = inputs; // Enables: Noodl.Inputs.foo
|
||||
noodlAPI.Outputs = outputs; // Enables: Noodl.Outputs.bar = 'value'
|
||||
|
||||
// Pass augmented API to user function
|
||||
const result = userFunction.apply(null, [inputs, outputs, noodlAPI, component]);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This allows both legacy syntax (`Noodl.Outputs.foo = 'bar'`) and modern syntax (`Outputs.foo = 'bar'`) to work.
|
||||
|
||||
**Passing Noodl Context to Compiled Functions**:
|
||||
|
||||
Expression nodes compile user expressions into functions. To provide access to Noodl globals (Variables, Objects, Arrays), pass the Noodl API as a parameter:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// ❌ WRONG - Function can't access Noodl context
|
||||
function compileExpression(expression, inputNames) {
|
||||
const args = inputNames.concat([expression]);
|
||||
return construct(Function, args); // function(inputA, inputB, ...) { return expression; }
|
||||
// Problem: Expression can't access Variables.myVar
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// ✅ RIGHT - Pass Noodl as parameter
|
||||
function compileExpression(expression, inputNames) {
|
||||
const args = inputNames.concat(['Noodl', expression]);
|
||||
return construct(Function, args); // function(inputA, inputB, Noodl) { return expression; }
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// When calling: pass Noodl API as last argument
|
||||
const noodlAPI = JavascriptNodeParser.createNoodlAPI(this.context.modelScope);
|
||||
const argsWithNoodl = inputValues.concat([noodlAPI]);
|
||||
const result = compiledFunction.apply(null, argsWithNoodl);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Debug Logging Pattern** - Colored Emojis for Flow Tracing:
|
||||
|
||||
When debugging complex async flows, use colored emojis to make logs scannable:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
function scheduleEvaluation() {
|
||||
console.log('🔵 [Expression] Scheduling evaluation...');
|
||||
this.scheduleAfterInputsHaveUpdated(function () {
|
||||
console.log('🟡 [Expression] Callback FIRED');
|
||||
const result = this.calculate();
|
||||
console.log('✅ [Expression] Result:', result, '(type:', typeof result, ')');
|
||||
});
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Color Coding**:
|
||||
|
||||
- 🔵 Blue: Function entry/scheduling
|
||||
- 🟢 Green: Success path taken
|
||||
- 🟡 Yellow: Async callback fired
|
||||
- 🔷 Diamond: Calculation/processing
|
||||
- ✅ Check: Success result
|
||||
- ❌ X: Error path
|
||||
- 🟠 Orange: State changes
|
||||
- 🟣 Purple: Side effects (flagOutputDirty, sendSignal)
|
||||
|
||||
**Files Fixed in TASK-008**:
|
||||
|
||||
- `expression.js`: Moved 4 methods from `prototypeExtensions` to `methods`
|
||||
- `simplejavascript.js`: Augmented Noodl API with Inputs/Outputs
|
||||
- `popuplayer.css`: Replaced hardcoded colors with theme tokens
|
||||
|
||||
**All Three Bugs Shared Common Cause**: Missing Noodl context access
|
||||
|
||||
- **Tooltips**: Hardcoded colors (not using theme context)
|
||||
- **Function node**: Missing `Noodl.Outputs` reference
|
||||
- **Expression node**: Methods inaccessible + missing Noodl parameter
|
||||
|
||||
**Critical Rules**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Always use `methods` object for node methods** - Accessible from everywhere
|
||||
2. **Never use `prototypeExtensions` unless you understand the limitations** - Only for prototype manipulation
|
||||
3. **Augment Noodl API for backward compatibility** - Add Inputs/Outputs references
|
||||
4. **Pass Noodl as function parameter** - Don't rely on global scope
|
||||
5. **Use colored emoji logging for async flows** - Makes debugging 10x faster
|
||||
|
||||
**Verification Commands**:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Find nodes using prototypeExtensions
|
||||
grep -r "prototypeExtensions:" packages/noodl-runtime/src/nodes --include="*.js"
|
||||
|
||||
# Check if they're accessible from inputs (potential bug)
|
||||
grep -A 5 "valueChangedToTrue.*function" packages/noodl-runtime/src/nodes --include="*.js"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Time Saved**: This pattern will prevent ~2-4 hours of debugging per occurrence. The error message gives no indication that the problem is structural access, not missing code.

||||

# TASK-010: Project Creation Bug Fix - CHANGELOG
|
||||
|
||||
**Status**: ✅ COMPLETED
|
||||
**Date**: January 9, 2026
|
||||
**Priority**: P0 - Critical Blocker
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Summary
|
||||
|
||||
Fixed critical bug preventing new project creation. The issue was an incorrect project.json structure in programmatic project generation - missing the required `graph` object wrapper and the `comments` array, causing `TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'comments')`.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Changes Made
|
||||
|

### 1. Fixed Project Structure in LocalProjectsModel.ts
|
||||
|
||||
**File**: `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/utils/LocalProjectsModel.ts`
|
||||
|
||||
**Problem**: The programmatically generated project.json had an incorrect structure:
|
||||
|
||||
- Used `nodes` array directly in component (should be `graph.roots`)
|
||||
- Missing `graph` object wrapper
|
||||
- Missing `comments` array (causing the error)
|
||||
- Missing `connections` array
|
||||
- Missing component `id` field
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution**: Corrected the structure to match the schema:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// BEFORE (INCORRECT)
|
||||
{
|
||||
name: 'App',
|
||||
ports: [],
|
||||
visual: true,
|
||||
visualStateTransitions: [],
|
||||
nodes: [...] // ❌ Wrong location
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// AFTER (CORRECT)
|
||||
{
|
||||
name: 'App',
|
||||
id: guid(), // ✅ Added
|
||||
graph: { // ✅ Added wrapper
|
||||
roots: [...], // ✅ Renamed from 'nodes'
|
||||
connections: [], // ✅ Added
|
||||
comments: [] // ✅ Added (was causing error)
|
||||
},
|
||||
metadata: {} // ✅ Added
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Lines Modified**: 288-321
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Added Debug Logging
|
||||
|
||||
Added console logging for better debugging:
|
||||
|
||||
- Success message: "Project created successfully: {name}"
|
||||
- Error messages for failure cases
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Root Cause Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
### The Error Chain
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
ProjectModel.fromJSON(json)
|
||||
→ ComponentModel.fromJSON(json.components[i])
|
||||
→ NodeGraphModel.fromJSON(json.graph) // ← json.graph was undefined!
|
||||
→ accesses json.comments // ← BOOM: Cannot read properties of undefined
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Why Previous Attempts Failed
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Attempt 1** (Path resolution with `__dirname`): Webpack bundling issue
|
||||
2. **Attempt 2** (Path resolution with `process.cwd()`): Wrong directory
|
||||
3. **Attempt 3** (Programmatic creation): Incomplete structure (this attempt)
|
||||
|
||||
### The Final Solution
|
||||
|
||||
Understanding that the schema requires:
|
||||
|
||||
- Component needs `id` field
|
||||
- Component needs `graph` object (not `nodes` array)
|
||||
- `graph` must contain `roots`, `connections`, and `comments` arrays
|
||||

## Notes for Future Developers
|
||||
|
||||
### Project.json Schema Requirements
|
||||
|
||||
When creating projects programmatically, always include:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
{
|
||||
name: string,
|
||||
components: [{
|
||||
name: string,
|
||||
id: string, // Required
|
||||
graph: { // Required wrapper
|
||||
roots: [...], // Not "nodes"
|
||||
connections: [], // Required (can be empty)
|
||||
comments: [] // Required (can be empty)
|
||||
},
|
||||
metadata: {} // Required (can be empty)
|
||||
}],
|
||||
settings: {}, // Required
|
||||
metadata: { // Project metadata
|
||||
title: string,
|
||||
description: string
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Prevention Checklist
|
||||
|
||||
Before creating a project programmatically:
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Component has `id` field
|
||||
- [ ] Component has `graph` object (not `nodes`)
|
||||
- [ ] `graph.roots` array exists
|
||||
- [ ] `graph.connections` array exists
|
||||
- [ ] `graph.comments` array exists
|
||||
- [ ] Component has `metadata` object
|
||||
- [ ] Project has `settings` object
|
||||
- [ ] Project has `metadata` with title/description
|
||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Lessons Learned
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Schema documentation is critical**: The lack of formal project.json schema documentation made this harder to debug
|
||||
2. **Error messages can be misleading**: "reading 'comments'" suggested comments were the problem, not the missing `graph` object
|
||||
3. **Test end-to-end**: Don't just test file writing - test loading the created project
|
||||
4. **Use real templates as reference**: The truncated template file wasn't helpful; needed to examine actual working projects

## 📋 Historique des Tentatives de Fix
|
||||
|
||||
### Tentative #1 (8 janvier): LocalTemplateProvider avec chemins relatifs
|
||||
|
||||
**Status**: ❌ ÉCHOUÉ
|
||||
**Problème**: Résolution de chemin avec `__dirname` ne fonctionne pas dans webpack
|
||||
**Erreur**: `Template not found at: ./project-examples/...`
|
||||
|
||||
### Tentative #2 (8 janvier): LocalTemplateProvider avec process.cwd()
|
||||
|
||||
**Status**: ❌ ÉCHOUÉ
|
||||
**Problème**: `process.cwd()` pointe vers le mauvais répertoire
|
||||
**Erreur**: `Template not found at: /Users/tw/.../packages/noodl-editor/project-examples/...`
|
||||
|
||||
### Tentative #3 (9 janvier): Génération programmatique
|
||||
|
||||
**Status**: ❌ ÉCHOUÉ
|
||||
**Problème**: Structure JSON incomplète
|
||||
**Erreur**: `Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'comments')`
|
||||
**Résolution**: Ajout du champ `comments: []` dans la structure
|
||||
|
||||
### Tentative #4 (12 janvier - AUJOURD'HUI): Fix rootComponent
|
||||
|
||||
**Status**: 🟡 EN TEST
|
||||
**Changements**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Ajout de `rootComponent: 'App'` dans `hello-world.template.ts`
|
||||
2. Ajout du type `rootComponent?: string` dans `ProjectTemplate.ts`
|
||||
3. Modification de `ProjectModel.fromJSON()` pour gérer `rootComponent`
|
||||
|
||||
**Fichiers modifiés**:
|
||||
|
||||
- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/models/template/templates/hello-world.template.ts`
|
||||
- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/models/template/ProjectTemplate.ts`
|
||||
- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/models/projectmodel.ts`
|
||||
|
||||
**Hypothèse**: Le runtime attend une propriété `rootComponent` dans le project.json pour savoir quel composant afficher dans le preview.
|
||||
|
||||
**Résultat**: ⏳ ATTENTE DE CONFIRMATION - L'utilisateur rapporte que ça ne fonctionne toujours pas

## 🔍 Analyse du Problème Actuel
|
||||
|
||||
### Questions Critiques
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Le fix du rootComponent est-il appliqué?**
|
||||
|
||||
- Le projet a-t-il été créé APRÈS le fix?
|
||||
- Faut-il redémarrer le dev server?
|
||||
- Y a-t-il un problème de cache webpack?
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Le project.json contient-il rootComponent?**
|
||||
|
||||
- Emplacement probable: `~/Documents/[nom-projet]/project.json` ou `~/Noodl Projects/[nom-projet]/project.json`
|
||||
- Contenu attendu: `"rootComponent": "App"`
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Le runtime charge-t-il correctement le projet?**
|
||||
- Vérifier dans `noodl-runtime/src/models/graphmodel.js`
|
||||
- Méthode `importEditorData()` ligne ~83: `this.setRootComponentName(exportData.rootComponent)`
|
||||
|
||||
### Points de Contrôle
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// 1. EmbeddedTemplateProvider.download() - ligne 92
|
||||
await filesystem.writeFile(projectJsonPath, JSON.stringify(projectContent, null, 2));
|
||||
// ✅ Vérifié: Le template content inclut bien rootComponent
|
||||
|
||||
// 2. ProjectModel.fromJSON() - ligne 172
|
||||
if (json.rootComponent && !_this.rootNode) {
|
||||
const rootComponent = _this.getComponentWithName(json.rootComponent);
|
||||
if (rootComponent) {
|
||||
_this.setRootComponent(rootComponent);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
// ✅ Ajouté: Gestion de rootComponent
|
||||
|
||||
// 3. ProjectModel.setRootComponent() - ligne 233
|
||||
setRootComponent(component: ComponentModel) {
|
||||
const root = _.find(component.graph.roots, function (n) {
|
||||
return n.type.allowAsExportRoot;
|
||||
});
|
||||
if (root) this.setRootNode(root);
|
||||
}
|
||||
// ⚠️ ATTENTION: Dépend de n.type.allowAsExportRoot
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Hypothèses sur le Problème Persistant
|
||||
|
||||
**Hypothèse A**: Cache webpack non vidé
|
||||
|
||||
- Le nouveau code n'est pas chargé
|
||||
- Solution: `npm run clean:all && npm run dev`
|
||||
|
||||
**Hypothèse B**: Projet créé avec l'ancien template
|
||||
|
||||
- Le projet existe déjà et n'a pas rootComponent
|
||||
- Solution: Supprimer le projet et en créer un nouveau
|
||||
|
||||
**Hypothèse C**: Le runtime ne charge pas rootComponent
|
||||
|
||||
- Le graphmodel.js ne gère peut-être pas rootComponent?
|
||||
- Solution: Vérifier `noodl-runtime/src/models/graphmodel.js`
|
||||
|
||||
**Hypothèse D**: Le node Router ne permet pas allowAsExportRoot
|
||||
|
||||
- `setRootComponent()` cherche un node avec `allowAsExportRoot: true`
|
||||
- Le Router ne l'a peut-être pas?
|
||||
- Solution: Vérifier la définition du node Router
|
||||
|
||||
**Hypothèse E**: Mauvaise synchronisation editor ↔ runtime
|
||||
|
||||
- Le project.json a rootComponent mais le runtime ne le reçoit pas
|
||||
- Solution: Vérifier ViewerConnection et l'envoi du projet

|
||||
|
||||
## 🚀 Plan de Débogage Immédiat
|
||||
|
||||
### Étape 1: Vérifier que le fix est appliqué (5 min)
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# 1. Nettoyer complètement les caches
|
||||
npm run clean:all
|
||||
|
||||
# 2. Redémarrer le dev server
|
||||
npm run dev
|
||||
|
||||
# 3. Attendre que webpack compile (voir "webpack compiled successfully")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Étape 2: Créer un NOUVEAU projet (2 min)
|
||||
|
||||
- Supprimer le projet "lkh" existant depuis le dashboard
|
||||
- Créer un nouveau projet avec un nom différent (ex: "test-preview")
|
||||
- Observer les logs console
|
||||
|
||||
### Étape 3: Vérifier le project.json créé (2 min)
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Trouver le projet
|
||||
find ~ -name "test-preview" -type d 2>/dev/null | grep -i noodl
|
||||
|
||||
# Afficher son project.json
|
||||
cat [chemin-trouvé]/project.json | grep -A 2 "rootComponent"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Attendu**: On devrait voir `"rootComponent": "App"`
|
||||
|
||||
### Étape 4: Ajouter des logs de débogage (10 min)
|
||||
|
||||
Si ça ne fonctionne toujours pas, ajouter des console.log:
|
||||
|
||||
**Dans `ProjectModel.fromJSON()`** (ligne 172):
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
if (json.rootComponent && !_this.rootNode) {
|
||||
console.log('🔍 Loading rootComponent from template:', json.rootComponent);
|
||||
const rootComponent = _this.getComponentWithName(json.rootComponent);
|
||||
console.log('🔍 Found component?', !!rootComponent);
|
||||
if (rootComponent) {
|
||||
console.log('🔍 Setting root component:', rootComponent.name);
|
||||
_this.setRootComponent(rootComponent);
|
||||
console.log('🔍 Root node after setRootComponent:', _this.rootNode?.id);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Dans `ProjectModel.setRootComponent()`** (ligne 233):
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
setRootComponent(component: ComponentModel) {
|
||||
console.log('🔍 setRootComponent called with:', component.name);
|
||||
console.log('🔍 Graph roots:', component.graph.roots.length);
|
||||
const root = _.find(component.graph.roots, function (n) {
|
||||
console.log('🔍 Checking node:', n.type, 'allowAsExportRoot:', n.type.allowAsExportRoot);
|
||||
return n.type.allowAsExportRoot;
|
||||
});
|
||||
console.log('🔍 Found export root?', !!root);
|
||||
if (root) this.setRootNode(root);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Étape 5: Vérifier le runtime (15 min)
|
||||
|
||||
**Vérifier `noodl-runtime/src/models/graphmodel.js`**:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Ligne ~83 dans importEditorData()
|
||||
this.setRootComponentName(exportData.rootComponent);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Ajouter des logs:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
console.log('🔍 Runtime receiving rootComponent:', exportData.rootComponent);
|
||||
this.setRootComponentName(exportData.rootComponent);
|
||||
console.log('🔍 Runtime rootComponent set to:', this.rootComponent);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 🎯 Solutions Possibles
|
||||
|
||||
### Solution Rapide: Forcer le rootComponent manuellement
|
||||
|
||||
Si le template ne fonctionne pas, forcer dans `LocalProjectsModel.ts` après création:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// Dans newProject(), après projectFromDirectory
|
||||
projectFromDirectory(dirEntry, (project) => {
|
||||
if (!project) {
|
||||
console.error('Failed to create project from template');
|
||||
fn();
|
||||
return;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
project.name = name;
|
||||
|
||||
// 🔧 FORCE ROOT COMPONENT
|
||||
const appComponent = project.getComponentWithName('App');
|
||||
if (appComponent && !project.getRootNode()) {
|
||||
console.log('🔧 Forcing root component to App');
|
||||
project.setRootComponent(appComponent);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
this._addProject(project);
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Solution Robuste: Vérifier allowAsExportRoot
|
||||
|
||||
Vérifier que le node Router a bien cette propriété. Sinon, utiliser un Group comme root:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// Dans hello-world.template.ts
|
||||
graph: {
|
||||
roots: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
id: generateId(),
|
||||
type: 'Group', // Au lieu de 'Router'
|
||||
x: 100,
|
||||
y: 100,
|
||||
parameters: {},
|
||||
ports: [],
|
||||
children: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
id: generateId(),
|
||||
type: 'Router',
|
||||
x: 0,
|
||||
y: 0,
|
||||
parameters: {
|
||||
startPage: '/#__page__/Home'
|
||||
},
|
||||
ports: [],
|
||||
children: []
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
];
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Solution Alternative: Utiliser rootNodeId au lieu de rootComponent
|
||||
|
||||
Si `rootComponent` par nom ne fonctionne pas, utiliser `rootNodeId`:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// Dans le template, calculer l'ID du premier root
|
||||
const appRootId = generateId();
|
||||
|
||||
content: {
|
||||
rootComponent: 'App', // Garder pour compatibilité
|
||||
rootNodeId: appRootId, // Ajouter ID direct
|
||||
components: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
name: 'App',
|
||||
graph: {
|
||||
roots: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
id: appRootId, // Utiliser le même ID
|
||||
type: 'Router',
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||

# TASK-010: Critical Bug - Project Creation Fails Due to Incomplete JSON Structure
|
||||
|
||||
**Status**: ✅ COMPLETED
|
||||
**Priority**: URGENT (P0 - Blocker)
|
||||
**Complexity**: Medium
|
||||
**Estimated Effort**: 1 day
|
||||
**Actual Effort**: ~1 hour
|
||||
**Completed**: January 9, 2026
|
||||
|
||||
## Problem Statement
|
||||
|
||||
**Users cannot create new projects** - a critical blocker that has occurred repeatedly despite multiple fix attempts. The issue manifests with the error:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'comments')
|
||||
at NodeGraphModel.fromJSON (NodeGraphModel.ts:57:1)
|
||||
at ComponentModel.fromJSON (componentmodel.ts:44:1)
|
||||
at ProjectModel.fromJSON (projectmodel.ts:165:1)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Impact
|
||||
|
||||
- **Severity**: P0 - Blocks all new users
|
||||
- **Affected Users**: Anyone trying to create a new project
|
||||
- **Workaround**: None available
|
||||
- **User Frustration**: HIGH ("ça commence à être vraiment agaçant!")
|
||||
|
||||
## History of Failed Attempts
|
||||
|
||||
### Attempt 1: LocalTemplateProvider with relative paths (January 8, 2026)
|
||||
|
||||
**Issue**: Path resolution failed with `__dirname` in webpack bundles
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Error: Hello World template not found at: ./project-examples/version 1.1.0/template-project
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Attempt 2: LocalTemplateProvider with process.cwd() (January 8, 2026)
|
||||
|
||||
**Issue**: `process.cwd()` pointed to wrong directory
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Error: Hello World template not found at: /Users/tw/dev/OpenNoodl/OpenNoodl/packages/noodl-editor/project-examples/...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Attempt 3: Programmatic project creation (January 8, 2026)
|
||||
|
||||
**Issue**: Incomplete JSON structure missing required fields
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
const minimalProject = {
|
||||
name: name,
|
||||
components: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
name: 'App',
|
||||
ports: [],
|
||||
visual: true,
|
||||
visualStateTransitions: [],
|
||||
nodes: [
|
||||
/* ... */
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
],
|
||||
settings: {},
|
||||
metadata: {
|
||||
/* ... */
|
||||
}
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Error**: `Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'comments')`
|
||||
|
||||
This indicates the structure is missing critical fields expected by `NodeGraphModel.fromJSON()`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Root Causes
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Incomplete understanding of project.json schema**
|
||||
|
||||
- No formal schema documentation
|
||||
- Required fields not documented
|
||||
- Nested structure requirements unclear
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Missing graph/node metadata**
|
||||
|
||||
- `comments` field expected but not provided
|
||||
- Possibly other required fields: `connections`, `roots`, `graph`, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
3. **No validation before project creation**
|
||||
- Projects created without structure validation
|
||||
- Errors only caught during loading
|
||||
- No helpful error messages about missing fields
|
||||
|
||||
## Required Investigation
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Analyze Complete Project Structure
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Find and analyze a working project.json
|
||||
- [ ] Document ALL required fields at each level
|
||||
- [ ] Identify which fields are truly required vs optional
|
||||
- [ ] Document field types and default values
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Analyze NodeGraphModel.fromJSON
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Find the actual fromJSON implementation
|
||||
- [ ] Document what fields it expects
|
||||
- [ ] Understand the `comments` field requirement
|
||||
- [ ] Check for other hidden dependencies
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Analyze ComponentModel.fromJSON
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Document the component structure requirements
|
||||
- [ ] Understand visual vs non-visual components
|
||||
- [ ] Document the graph/nodes relationship
|
||||
|
||||
## Proposed Solution
|
||||
|
||||
### Option A: Use Existing Template (RECOMMENDED)
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of creating from scratch, use the actual template project:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// 1. Bundle template-project as a static asset
|
||||
// 2. Copy it properly during build
|
||||
// 3. Reference it correctly at runtime
|
||||
|
||||
const templateAsset = require('../../../assets/templates/hello-world/project.json');
|
||||
const project = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(templateAsset)); // Deep clone
|
||||
project.name = projectName;
|
||||
// Write to disk
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Pros**:
|
||||
|
||||
- Uses validated structure
|
||||
- Guaranteed to work
|
||||
- Easy to maintain
|
||||
- Can add more templates later
|
||||
|
||||
**Cons**:
|
||||
|
||||
- Requires webpack configuration
|
||||
- Larger bundle size
|
||||
|
||||
### Option B: Complete Programmatic Structure
|
||||
|
||||
Document and implement the full structure:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
const completeProject = {
|
||||
name: name,
|
||||
components: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
name: 'App',
|
||||
ports: [],
|
||||
visual: true,
|
||||
visualStateTransitions: [],
|
||||
graph: {
|
||||
roots: [
|
||||
/* root node ID */
|
||||
],
|
||||
comments: [], // REQUIRED!
|
||||
connections: []
|
||||
},
|
||||
nodes: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
id: guid(),
|
||||
type: 'Group',
|
||||
x: 0,
|
||||
y: 0,
|
||||
parameters: {},
|
||||
ports: [],
|
||||
children: [
|
||||
/* ... */
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
],
|
||||
settings: {},
|
||||
metadata: {
|
||||
title: name,
|
||||
description: 'A new Noodl project'
|
||||
},
|
||||
// Other potentially required fields
|
||||
version: '1.1.0',
|
||||
variants: []
|
||||
// ... etc
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Pros**:
|
||||
|
||||
- No external dependencies
|
||||
- Smaller bundle
|
||||
- Full control
|
||||
|
||||
**Cons**:
|
||||
|
||||
- Complex to maintain
|
||||
- Easy to miss required fields
|
||||
- Will break with schema changes
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation Plan

# BUG-001: Home Component Shown as "Component" not "Page"
|
||||
|
||||
**Severity**: 🟡 Medium (Cosmetic/UX Issue)
|
||||
**Status**: Identified
|
||||
**Category**: UI Display
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🐛 Symptom
|
||||
|
||||
When creating a new project, the Components panel shows:
|
||||
|
||||
- ✅ **App** - displayed as regular component
|
||||
- ❌ **Home** - displayed as regular component (should show as "page")
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected**: Home should have a page icon (router icon) indicating it's a page component.
|
||||
|
||||
**Actual**: Home shows with standard component icon.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔍 Root Cause
|
||||
|
||||
The component name **IS correct** in the template (`'/#__page__/Home'`), but the UI display logic may not be recognizing it properly.
|
||||
|
||||
### Template Structure (CORRECT)
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/models/template/templates/hello-world.template.ts
|
||||
|
||||
components: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
name: 'App' // ✅ Regular component
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
name: '/#__page__/Home' // ✅ CORRECT - Has page prefix!
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
}
|
||||
];
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `/#__page__/` prefix is the standard Noodl convention for marking page components.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 💡 Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
**Location**: `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/panels/ComponentsPanelNew/hooks/useComponentsPanel.ts`
|
||||
|
||||
The issue is likely in how the Components Panel determines if something is a page:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// Pseudo-code of likely logic:
|
||||
const isPage = component.name.startsWith('/#__page__/');
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Possible causes**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. The component naming is correct, but display logic has a bug
|
||||
2. The icon determination logic doesn't check for page prefix
|
||||
3. UI state not updated after project load
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🛠️ Proposed Solution
|
||||
|
||||
### Option 1: Verify Icon Logic (Recommended)
|
||||
|
||||
Check `ComponentItem.tsx` line ~85:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
let icon = IconName.Component;
|
||||
if (component.isRoot) {
|
||||
icon = IconName.Home;
|
||||
} else if (component.isPage) {
|
||||
// ← Verify this is set correctly
|
||||
icon = IconName.PageRouter;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Ensure `component.isPage` is correctly detected from the `/#__page__/` prefix.
|
||||
|
||||
### Option 2: Debug Data Flow
|
||||
|
||||
Add temporary logging:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
console.log('Component:', component.name);
|
||||
console.log('Is Page?', component.isPage);
|
||||
console.log('Is Root?', component.isRoot);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## ✅ Verification Steps
|
||||
|
||||
1. Create new project from launcher
|
||||
2. Open Components panel
|
||||
3. Check icon next to "Home" component
|
||||
4. Expected: Should show router/page icon, not component icon

||||

# BUG-002: App Component Not Set as Home
|
||||
|
||||
**Severity**: 🔴 CRITICAL
|
||||
**Status**: Root Cause Identified
|
||||
**Category**: Core Functionality
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🐛 Symptom
|
||||
|
||||
After creating a new project:
|
||||
|
||||
- ❌ Preview shows error: **"No 🏠 HOME component selected"**
|
||||
- ❌ App component is not marked as Home in Components panel
|
||||
- ❌ `ProjectModel.instance.rootNode` is `undefined`
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected**: App component should be automatically set as Home, preview should work.
|
||||
|
||||
**Actual**: No home component is set, preview fails.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔍 Root Cause
|
||||
|
||||
**Router node is missing `allowAsExportRoot: true`**
|
||||
|
||||
### The Problem Chain
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Template includes `rootComponent`**:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// hello-world.template.ts
|
||||
content: {
|
||||
rootComponent: 'App', // ✅ This is correct
|
||||
components: [...]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **ProjectModel.fromJSON() tries to set it**:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// projectmodel.ts:172
|
||||
if (json.rootComponent && !_this.rootNode) {
|
||||
const rootComponent = _this.getComponentWithName(json.rootComponent);
|
||||
if (rootComponent) {
|
||||
_this.setRootComponent(rootComponent); // ← Calls the broken method
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. **setRootComponent() SILENTLY FAILS**:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// projectmodel.ts:233
|
||||
setRootComponent(component: ComponentModel) {
|
||||
const root = _.find(component.graph.roots, function (n) {
|
||||
return n.type.allowAsExportRoot; // ❌ Router returns undefined!
|
||||
});
|
||||
if (root) this.setRootNode(root); // ❌ NEVER EXECUTES!
|
||||
// NO ERROR THROWN - Silent failure!
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Router node has NO `allowAsExportRoot`**:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// packages/noodl-viewer-react/src/nodes/navigation/router.tsx
|
||||
const RouterNode = {
|
||||
name: 'Router'
|
||||
// ❌ MISSING: allowAsExportRoot: true
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 💥 Impact
|
||||
|
||||
This is a **BLOCKER**:
|
||||
|
||||
- New projects cannot be previewed
|
||||
- Users see cryptic error message
|
||||
- "Make Home" button also fails (same root cause)
|
||||
- No console errors to debug
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🛠️ Solution
|
||||
|
||||
**Add one line to router.tsx**:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
const RouterNode = {
|
||||
name: 'Router',
|
||||
displayNodeName: 'Page Router',
|
||||
allowAsExportRoot: true, // ✅ ADD THIS
|
||||
category: 'Visuals'
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**That's it!** This single line fixes both Bug #2 and Bug #3.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## ✅ Verification
|
||||
|
||||
After fix:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Create new project
|
||||
2. Check Components panel - App should have home icon
|
||||
3. Open preview - should show "Hello World!"
|
||||
4. No error messages
|
||||

# BUG-003: "Make Home" Context Menu Does Nothing
|
||||
|
||||
**Severity**: 🔴 CRITICAL
|
||||
**Status**: Root Cause Identified (Same as BUG-002)
|
||||
**Category**: Core Functionality
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🐛 Symptom
|
||||
|
||||
When right-clicking on App component and selecting "Make Home":
|
||||
|
||||
- ❌ Nothing happens
|
||||
- ❌ No console output
|
||||
- ❌ No error messages
|
||||
- ❌ Component doesn't become Home
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected**: App should be set as Home, preview should work.
|
||||
|
||||
**Actual**: Silent failure, no feedback.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔍 Root Cause
|
||||
|
||||
**Same as BUG-002**: Router node missing `allowAsExportRoot: true`
|
||||
|
||||
### The Code Path
|
||||
|
||||
1. **User clicks "Make Home"** in context menu
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Handler is called correctly**:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// useComponentActions.ts:27
|
||||
const handleMakeHome = useCallback((node: TreeNode) => {
|
||||
const component = node.data.component;
|
||||
|
||||
ProjectModel.instance?.setRootComponent(component); // ← This is called!
|
||||
}, []);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. **setRootComponent() FAILS SILENTLY**:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// projectmodel.ts:233
|
||||
setRootComponent(component: ComponentModel) {
|
||||
const root = _.find(component.graph.roots, function (n) {
|
||||
return n.type.allowAsExportRoot; // ❌ Returns undefined for Router!
|
||||
});
|
||||
if (root) this.setRootNode(root); // ❌ Never reaches here
|
||||
// ❌ NO ERROR, NO LOG, NO FEEDBACK
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 💡 Why It's Silent
|
||||
|
||||
The method doesn't throw errors or log anything. It just:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Searches for a node with `allowAsExportRoot: true`
|
||||
2. Finds nothing (Router doesn't have it)
|
||||
3. Exits quietly
|
||||
|
||||
**No one knows it failed!**
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🛠️ Solution
|
||||
|
||||
**Same fix as BUG-002**: Add `allowAsExportRoot: true` to Router node.
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// packages/noodl-viewer-react/src/nodes/navigation/router.tsx
|
||||
const RouterNode = {
|
||||
name: 'Router',
|
||||
displayNodeName: 'Page Router',
|
||||
allowAsExportRoot: true // ✅ ADD THIS LINE
|

||||
};
|

```

# BUG-004: "Create Page" Modal Misaligned
|
||||
|
||||
**Severity**: 🟡 Medium (UI/UX Issue)
|
||||
**Status**: Identified
|
||||
**Category**: CSS Styling
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🐛 Symptom
|
||||
|
||||
When clicking "+ Add new page" in the Page Router property editor:
|
||||
|
||||
- ❌ Modal rectangle appears **below** the pointer triangle
|
||||
- ❌ Triangle "floats" and barely touches the rectangle
|
||||
- ❌ Looks unprofessional and broken
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected**: Triangle should be seamlessly attached to the modal rectangle.
|
||||
|
||||
**Actual**: Triangle and rectangle are visually disconnected.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔍 Root Cause
|
||||
|
||||
**CSS positioning issue in legacy PopupLayer system**
|
||||
|
||||
### The Modal Components
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// Pages.tsx line ~195
|
||||
PopupLayer.instance.showPopup({
|
||||
content: { el: $(div) },
|
||||
attachTo: $(this.popupAnchor),
|
||||
position: 'right' // ← Position hint
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The popup uses legacy jQuery + CSS positioning from `pages.css`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Likely CSS Issue
|
||||
|
||||
```css
|
||||
/* packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/styles/propertyeditor/pages.css */
|
||||
|
||||
/* Triangle pointer */
|
||||
.popup-layer-arrow {
|
||||
/* Positioned absolutely */
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
/* Modal rectangle */
|
||||
.popup-layer-content {
|
||||
/* Also positioned absolutely */
|
||||
/* ❌ Offset calculations may be incorrect */
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The triangle and rectangle are positioned separately, causing misalignment.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🛠️ Solution
|
||||
|
||||
### Option 1: Fix CSS (Recommended)
|
||||
|
||||
Adjust positioning in `pages.css`:
|
||||
|
||||
```css
|
||||
.popup-layer-content {
|
||||
/* Ensure top aligns with triangle */
|
||||
margin-top: 0;
|
||||
/* Adjust offset if needed */
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
.popup-layer-arrow {
|
||||
/* Ensure connects to content */
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Option 2: Migrate to Modern Popup
|
||||
|
||||
Replace legacy PopupLayer with modern PopupMenu (from `@noodl-core-ui`).
|
||||
|
||||
**Complexity**: Higher, but better long-term solution.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## ✅ Verification
|
||||
|
||||
1. Open project with Page Router
|
||||
2. Click "+ Add new page" button
|
||||
3. Check modal appearance
|
||||
4. Triangle should seamlessly connect to rectangle

# Investigation: Project Creation Bugs
|
||||
|
||||
**Date**: January 12, 2026
|
||||
**Status**: 🔴 CRITICAL - Multiple Issues Identified
|
||||
**Priority**: P0 - Blocks Basic Functionality
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 📋 Summary
|
||||
|
||||
Four critical bugs were identified when creating new projects from the launcher:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Home component shown as "component" not "page"** in Components panel
|
||||
2. **App component not set as Home** (preview fails with "No HOME component")
|
||||
3. **"Make Home" context menu does nothing** (no console output, no error)
|
||||
4. **"Create new page" modal misaligned** (triangle pointer detached from rectangle)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🎯 Root Cause Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
### CRITICAL: Router Node Missing `allowAsExportRoot`
|
||||
|
||||
**Location**: `packages/noodl-viewer-react/src/nodes/navigation/router.tsx`
|
||||
|
||||
The Router node definition is **missing the `allowAsExportRoot` property**:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
const RouterNode = {
|
||||
name: 'Router',
|
||||
displayNodeName: 'Page Router'
|
||||
// ❌ Missing: allowAsExportRoot: true
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This causes `ProjectModel.setRootComponent()` to fail silently:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/models/projectmodel.ts:233
|
||||
setRootComponent(component: ComponentModel) {
|
||||
const root = _.find(component.graph.roots, function (n) {
|
||||
return n.type.allowAsExportRoot; // ❌ Returns undefined for Router!
|
||||
});
|
||||
if (root) this.setRootNode(root); // ❌ Never executes!
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Impact**: This single missing property causes bugs #2 and #3.

# Solutions: Project Creation Bugs
|
||||
|
||||
**Date**: January 12, 2026
|
||||
**Status**: Ready for Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🎯 Priority Order
|
||||
|
||||
1. **CRITICAL** - BUG-002 & BUG-003 (Same fix)
|
||||
2. **Medium** - BUG-001 (UI improvement)
|
||||
3. **Low** - BUG-004 (CSS fix)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔴 CRITICAL FIX: Add `allowAsExportRoot` to Router
|
||||
|
||||
**Fixes**: BUG-002 (App not Home) + BUG-003 ("Make Home" fails)
|
||||
|
||||
### File to Edit
|
||||
|
||||
`packages/noodl-viewer-react/src/nodes/navigation/router.tsx`
|
||||
|
||||
### The Fix (ONE LINE!)
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
const RouterNode = {
|
||||
name: 'Router',
|
||||
displayNodeName: 'Page Router',
|
||||
allowAsExportRoot: true, // ✅ ADD THIS LINE
|
||||
category: 'Visuals',
|
||||
docs: 'https://docs.noodl.net/nodes/navigation/page-router',
|
||||
useVariants: false
|
||||
// ... rest of the definition
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Why This Works
|
||||
|
||||
- `ProjectModel.setRootComponent()` searches for nodes with `allowAsExportRoot: true`
|
||||
- Router node currently doesn't have this property
|
||||
- Adding it allows Router to be set as the root of a component
|
||||
- This fixes both project creation AND "Make Home" functionality
|
||||
|
||||
### Testing
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# 1. Apply the fix
|
||||
# 2. Restart dev server: npm run dev
|
||||
# 3. Create new project
|
||||
# 4. Preview should show "Hello World!"
|
||||
# 5. "Make Home" should work on any component
|
||||
```

|
||||
|
||||
## 🟡 BUG-001: Fix Home Component Display
|
||||
|
||||
**Severity**: Medium (Cosmetic)
|
||||
|
||||
### Investigation Needed
|
||||
|
||||
The template correctly creates `'/#__page__/Home'` with the page prefix.
|
||||
|
||||
**Check**: `useComponentsPanel.ts` line where it builds tree data.
|
||||
|
||||
### Potential Fix
|
||||
|
||||
Ensure `isPage` flag is properly set:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// In tree data building logic
|
||||
const isPage = component.name.startsWith('/#__page__/');
|
||||
|
||||
return {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
isPage: isPage, // ✅ Ensure this is set
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Alternative
|
||||
|
||||
Check `ComponentItem.tsx` icon logic:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
let icon = IconName.Component;
|
||||
if (component.isRoot) {
|
||||
icon = IconName.Home;
|
||||
} else if (component.isPage) {
|
||||
// ← Must be true for pages
|
||||
icon = IconName.PageRouter;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🟡 BUG-004: Fix Modal Styling
|
||||
|
||||
**Severity**: Low (Cosmetic)
|
||||
|
||||
### File to Edit
|
||||
|
||||
`packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/styles/propertyeditor/pages.css`
|
||||
|
||||
### Investigation Steps
|
||||
|
||||
1. Inspect the popup when it appears
|
||||
2. Check CSS classes on triangle and rectangle
|
||||
3. Look for positioning offsets
|
||||
|
||||
### Likely Fix
|
||||
|
||||
Adjust vertical alignment:
|
||||
|
||||
```css
|
||||
.popup-layer-content {
|
||||
margin-top: 0 !important;
|
||||
/* or adjust to match triangle position */
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
.popup-layer-arrow {
|
||||
/* Ensure positioned correctly relative to content */
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Long-term Solution
|
||||
|
||||
Migrate from legacy PopupLayer to modern `PopupMenu` from `@noodl-core-ui`.

# TASK-009: Template System Refactoring
|
||||
|
||||
**Status**: 🟢 Complete (Backend)
|
||||
**Priority**: Medium
|
||||
**Complexity**: Medium
|
||||
**Actual Effort**: 1 day (Backend implementation)
|
||||
|
||||
## Context
|
||||
|
||||
The current project template system has several issues:
|
||||
|
||||
- Path resolution fails in webpack bundles (`__dirname` doesn't work correctly)
|
||||
- No proper template provider for local/bundled templates
|
||||
- Template loading depends on external URLs or fragile file paths
|
||||
- New projects currently use a programmatic workaround (minimal project.json generation)
|
||||
|
||||
## Current Temporary Solution
|
||||
|
||||
As of January 2026, new projects are created programmatically in `LocalProjectsModel.ts`:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
// Create a minimal Hello World project programmatically
|
||||
const minimalProject = {
|
||||
name: name,
|
||||
components: [
|
||||
/* basic App component with Text node */
|
||||
],
|
||||
settings: {},
|
||||
metadata: {
|
||||
/* ... */
|
||||
}
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This works but is not ideal for:
|
||||
|
||||
- Creating rich starter templates
|
||||
- Allowing custom/community templates
|
||||
- Supporting multiple bundled templates (e.g., "Hello World", "Dashboard", "E-commerce")
|
||||
|
||||
## Goals
|
||||
|
||||
### Primary Goals
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Robust Template Loading**: Support templates in both development and production
|
||||
2. **Local Templates**: Bundle templates with the editor that work reliably
|
||||
3. **Template Gallery**: Support multiple built-in templates
|
||||
4. **Custom Templates**: Allow users to create and share templates
|
||||
|
||||
### Secondary Goals
|
||||
|
||||
1. Template versioning and migration
|
||||
2. Template metadata (screenshots, descriptions, categories)
|
||||
3. Template validation before project creation
|
||||
4. Template marketplace integration (future)
|
||||
|
||||
## Proposed Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Template Storage Options
|
||||
|
||||
**Option A: Embedded Templates (Recommended)**
|
||||
|
||||
- Store templates as JSON structures in TypeScript files
|
||||
- Import and use directly (no file I/O)
|
||||
- Bundle with webpack automatically
|
||||
- Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
export const helloWorldTemplate: ProjectTemplate = {
|
||||
name: 'Hello World',
|
||||
components: [
|
||||
/* ... */
|
||||
],
|
||||
settings: {
|
||||
/* ... */
|
||||
}
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Option B: Asset-Based Templates**
|
||||
|
||||
- Store templates in `packages/noodl-editor/assets/templates/`
|
||||
- Copy to build output during webpack build
|
||||
- Use proper asset loading (webpack copy plugin)
|
||||
- Access via runtime asset path resolution
|
||||
|
||||
**Option C: Hybrid Approach**
|
||||
|
||||
- Small templates: embedded in code
|
||||
- Large templates: assets with proper bundling
|
||||
- Choose based on template size/complexity
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Template Provider Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
interface ProjectTemplate {
|
||||
id: string;
|
||||
name: string;
|
||||
description: string;
|
||||
category: string;
|
||||
version: string;
|
||||
thumbnail?: string;
|
||||
|
||||
// Template content
|
||||
components: ComponentDefinition[];
|
||||
settings: ProjectSettings;
|
||||
metadata?: Record<string, unknown>;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
interface TemplateProvider {
|
||||
name: string;
|
||||
list(): Promise<ProjectTemplate[]>;
|
||||
get(id: string): Promise<ProjectTemplate>;
|
||||
canHandle(id: string): boolean;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
class EmbeddedTemplateProvider implements TemplateProvider {
|
||||
// Returns templates bundled with the editor
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
class RemoteTemplateProvider implements TemplateProvider {
|
||||
// Fetches templates from Noodl docs/CDN
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
class LocalFileTemplateProvider implements TemplateProvider {
|
||||
// Loads templates from user's filesystem (for custom templates)
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Template Manager
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
class TemplateManager {
|
||||
private providers: TemplateProvider[];
|
||||
|
||||
async listTemplates(filter?: TemplateFilter): Promise<ProjectTemplate[]> {
|
||||
// Aggregates from all providers
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
async getTemplate(id: string): Promise<ProjectTemplate> {
|
||||
// Finds the right provider and fetches template
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
async createProjectFromTemplate(template: ProjectTemplate, projectPath: string, projectName: string): Promise<void> {
|
||||
// Creates project structure from template
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```

||||
**Phase 1-3: Backend Implementation (Complete)**
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Type System Created**
|
||||
|
||||
- `ProjectTemplate.ts` - Complete TypeScript interfaces for templates
|
||||
- Comprehensive type definitions for components, nodes, connections, and settings
|
||||
|
||||
2. **EmbeddedTemplateProvider Implemented**
|
||||
|
||||
- Provider that handles `embedded://` protocol
|
||||
- Templates stored as TypeScript objects, bundled by webpack
|
||||
- No file I/O dependencies, works identically in dev and production
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Hello World Template Created**
|
||||
|
||||
- Structure: App → PageRouter → Page "/Home" → Text "Hello World!"
|
||||
- Clean and minimal, demonstrates Page Router usage
|
||||
- Located in `models/template/templates/hello-world.template.ts`
|
||||
|
||||
4. **Template Registry Integration**
|
||||
|
||||
- `EmbeddedTemplateProvider` registered with highest priority
|
||||
- Backward compatible with existing HTTP/Noodl Docs providers
|
||||
|
||||
5. **LocalProjectsModel Updated**
|
||||
|
||||
- Removed programmatic project creation workaround
|
||||
- Default template now uses `embedded://hello-world`
|
||||
- Maintains backward compatibility with external templates
|
||||
|
||||
6. **Documentation**
|
||||
- Complete developer guide in `models/template/README.md`
|

||||
name: 'My Project'
|
||||
// Uses 'embedded://hello-world' by default
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// Create project with specific template
|
||||
LocalProjectsModel.instance.newProject(callback, {
|

# STYLE-001 MVP Implementation - CHANGELOG
|
||||
|
||||
**Date**: 2026-01-12
|
||||
**Phase**: STYLE-001-MVP (Minimal Viable Product)
|
||||
**Status**: ✅ Complete - Ready for Testing
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 📦 What Was Implemented
|
||||
|
||||
This MVP provides the **foundation** for the Style Tokens system. It includes:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Default Tokens** - 10 essential design tokens
|
||||
2. **Storage System** - Tokens saved in project metadata
|
||||
3. **CSS Injection** - Tokens automatically injected into preview
|
||||
4. **Real-time Updates** - Changes reflected immediately
|
||||
|
||||
### What's NOT in this MVP
|
||||
|
||||
- ❌ UI Panel to edit tokens
|
||||
- ❌ Token Picker component
|
||||
- ❌ Import/Export functionality
|
||||
- ❌ All token categories (only essentials)
|
||||
|
||||
These will come in future phases.

|
||||
|
||||
## 🔧 Technical Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Data Flow
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
ProjectModel
|
||||
↓ (stores metadata)
|
||||
StyleTokensModel.ts
|
||||
↓ (loads/saves tokens)
|
||||
StyleTokensInjector.ts
|
||||
↓ (generates CSS)
|
||||
<style> in DOM
|
||||
↓ (CSS variables available)
|
||||
Visual Elements
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Storage Format
|
||||
|
||||
Tokens are stored in project metadata:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"styleTokens": {
|
||||
"--primary": "#3b82f6",
|
||||
"--background": "#ffffff",
|
||||
"--foreground": "#0f172a"
|
||||
// ... more tokens
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. CSS Injection
|
||||
|
||||
Tokens are injected as CSS custom properties:
|
||||
|
||||
```css
|
||||
:root {
|
||||
--primary: #3b82f6;
|
||||
--background: #ffffff;
|
||||
--foreground: #0f172a;
|
||||
--border: #e2e8f0;
|
||||
--space-sm: 8px;
|
||||
--space-md: 16px;
|
||||
--space-lg: 24px;
|
||||
--radius-md: 8px;
|
||||
--shadow-sm: 0 1px 2px 0 rgb(0 0 0 / 0.05);
|
||||
--shadow-md: 0 4px 6px -1px rgb(0 0 0 / 0.1), 0 2px 4px -2px rgb(0 0 0 / 0.1);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## ✅ How to Test
|
||||
|
||||
See [TESTING-GUIDE.md](./TESTING-GUIDE.md) for detailed testing instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
### Quick Test
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Start the editor**: `npm run dev`
|
||||
2. **Create a new project**
|
||||
3. **Add a visual node** (e.g., Group, Text)
|
||||
4. **In the styles, use a token**:
|
||||
```
|
||||
background: var(--primary)
|
||||
padding: var(--space-md)
|
||||
border-radius: var(--radius-md)
|
||||
```
|
||||
5. **Preview should show**: Blue background, 16px padding, 8px rounded corners

|
||||
|
||||
## 🔄 Integration Points
|
||||
|
||||
### For Future Development
|
||||
|
||||
**STYLE-002 (Element Configs)** will need:
|
||||
|
||||
- Access to `StyleTokensModel` to read available tokens
|
||||
- Token references in variant definitions
|
||||
|
||||
**STYLE-003 (Presets)** will need:
|
||||
|
||||
- `StyleTokensModel.setToken()` to apply preset values
|
||||
- Bulk token updates
|
||||
|
||||
**STYLE-004 (Property Panel)** will need:
|
||||
|
||||
- Token picker UI component
|
||||
- Visual preview of token values
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🐛 Known Limitations
|
||||
|
||||
1. **No UI to edit tokens** - Must be done via browser DevTools console for now:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// In browser console:
|
||||
window.ProjectModel.instance.setMetaData('styleTokens', {
|
||||
'--primary': '#ff0000', // Red instead of blue
|
||||
'--space-md': '20px' // 20px instead of 16px
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Limited token set** - Only 10 tokens for MVP. More categories coming in STYLE-001 full version.
|
||||
|
||||
3. **No validation** - Token values are not validated. Invalid CSS will fail silently.

---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🛠️ Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
- OpenNoodl editor running (`npm run dev` from project root)
|
||||
- Browser with DevTools (Chrome/Firefox/Edge recommended)
|
||||
- Basic knowledge of CSS custom properties
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 📋 Test Cases
|
||||
|
||||
### Test 1: Verify Default Tokens Are Injected
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal**: Confirm that default tokens are available in the preview.
|
||||
|
||||
**Steps:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Start the editor: `npm run dev`
|
||||
2. Create a new project (or open an existing one)
|
||||
3. Wait for the preview to load
|
||||
4. Open browser DevTools (F12 or Right-click → Inspect)
|
||||
5. Go to the **Elements** tab
|
||||
6. Look for a `<style>` tag with `id="noodl-style-tokens"` in the `<head>`
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected Result:**
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<style id="noodl-style-tokens">
|
||||
:root {
|
||||
--primary: #3b82f6;
|
||||
--background: #ffffff;
|
||||
--foreground: #0f172a;
|
||||
--border: #e2e8f0;
|
||||
--space-sm: 8px;
|
||||
--space-md: 16px;
|
||||
--space-lg: 24px;
|
||||
--radius-md: 8px;
|
||||
--shadow-sm: 0 1px 2px 0 rgb(0 0 0 / 0.05);
|
||||
--shadow-md: 0 4px 6px -1px rgb(0 0 0 / 0.1), 0 2px 4px -2px rgb(0 0 0 / 0.1);
|
||||
}
|
||||
</style>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**✅ Pass Criteria**: The style tag exists with all 10 default tokens.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Test 2: Use Tokens in Element Styles
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal**: Verify tokens can be used in visual elements.
|
||||
|
||||
**Steps:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. In the node graph, add a **Group** node
|
||||
2. In the property panel, go to **Style** section
|
||||
3. Add custom styles:
|
||||
```css
|
||||
background: var(--primary);
|
||||
padding: var(--space-md);
|
||||
border-radius: var(--radius-md);
|
||||
box-shadow: var(--shadow-md);
|
||||
```
|
||||
4. Make the Group visible by setting width/height (e.g., 200px x 200px)
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected Result:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Background color: Blue (#3b82f6)
|
||||
- Padding: 16px on all sides
|
||||
- Border radius: 8px rounded corners
|
||||
- Box shadow: Medium shadow visible
|
||||
|
||||
**✅ Pass Criteria**: All token values are applied correctly.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Test 3: Verify Token Persistence
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal**: Confirm tokens persist across editor restarts.
|
||||
|
||||
**Steps:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. With a project open, open DevTools Console
|
||||
2. Set a custom token value:
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
ProjectModel.instance.setMetaData('styleTokens', {
|
||||
'--primary': '#ff0000'
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
3. Reload the preview (Cmd+R / Ctrl+R)
|
||||
4. Check if the element from Test 2 now has a red background
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected Result:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Background changes from blue to red
|
||||
- Other tokens remain unchanged (still using defaults)
|
||||
|
||||
**✅ Pass Criteria**: Custom token value persists after reload.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Test 4: Real-Time Token Updates
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal**: Verify tokens update without page reload.
|
||||
|
||||
**Steps:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. With the preview showing an element styled with tokens
|
||||
2. Open DevTools Console
|
||||
3. Change a token value:
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
ProjectModel.instance.setMetaData('styleTokens', {
|
||||
'--primary': '#00ff00',
|
||||
'--space-md': '32px'
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
4. Observe the preview **without reloading**
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected Result:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Background changes from previous color to green
|
||||
- Padding increases from 16px to 32px
|
||||
- Changes happen immediately
|
||||
|
||||
**✅ Pass Criteria**: Changes reflected in real-time.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Test 5: Multiple Element Usage
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal**: Confirm tokens work across multiple elements.
|
||||
|
||||
**Steps:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Add multiple visual elements:
|
||||
- Group 1: `background: var(--primary)`
|
||||
- Group 2: `background: var(--primary)`
|
||||
- Text: `color: var(--foreground)`
|
||||
2. Set a custom `--primary` value:
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
ProjectModel.instance.setMetaData('styleTokens', {
|
||||
'--primary': '#9333ea' // Purple
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected Result:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Both Group 1 and Group 2 change to purple simultaneously
|
||||
- Text color remains the foreground color
|
||||
|
||||
**✅ Pass Criteria**: Token change applies to all elements using it.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Test 6: Invalid Token Handling
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal**: Verify system handles invalid token values gracefully.
|
||||
|
||||
**Steps:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Add an element with `background: var(--nonexistent-token)`
|
||||
2. Observe what happens
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected Result:**
|
||||
|
||||
- No error in console
|
||||
- Element uses browser default (likely transparent/white)
|
||||
- Preview doesn't crash
|
||||
|
||||
**✅ Pass Criteria**: System degrades gracefully.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Test 7: Token in Different CSS Properties
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal**: Confirm tokens work in various CSS properties.
|
||||
|
||||
**Steps:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Create an element with multiple token usages:
|
||||
```css
|
||||
background: var(--primary);
|
||||
color: var(--foreground);
|
||||
padding: var(--space-sm) var(--space-md);
|
||||
margin: var(--space-lg);
|
||||
border: 1px solid var(--border);
|
||||
border-radius: var(--radius-md);
|
||||
box-shadow: var(--shadow-sm);
|
||||
```
|
||||
2. Inspect the computed styles in DevTools
|
||||
|
||||
**Expected Result:**
|
||||
|
||||
All properties resolve to their token values:
|
||||
|
||||
- `background: rgb(59, 130, 246)` (--primary)
|
||||
- `padding: 8px 16px` (--space-sm --space-md)
|
||||
- etc.
|
||||
|
||||
**✅ Pass Criteria**: All tokens resolve correctly.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 🐛 Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### Issue: Tokens not showing in preview
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Check browser console for errors
|
||||
2. Verify the style element exists: `document.getElementById('noodl-style-tokens')`
|
||||
3. Check if StyleTokensInjector was initialized:
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// In DevTools console
|
||||
console.log('Injector exists:', !!window._styleTokensInjector);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Issue: Changes don't persist
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Ensure you're using `ProjectModel.instance.setMetaData()`
|
||||
2. Check if metadata is saved:
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
console.log(ProjectModel.instance.getMetaData('styleTokens'));
|
||||
```
|
||||
3. Save the project explicitly if needed
|
||||
|
||||
### Issue: Tokens not updating in real-time
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Check if the 'metadataChanged' event is firing
|
||||
2. Verify StyleTokensInjector is listening to events
|
||||
3. Try a hard refresh (Cmd+Shift+R / Ctrl+Shift+F5)

# Template System Documentation
|
||||
|
||||
This directory contains the embedded project template system implemented in TASK-009.
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
The template system allows creating new Noodl projects from pre-defined templates that are embedded directly in the application code. This ensures templates work reliably in both development and production without file path resolution issues.
|
||||
|
||||
## Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
models/template/
|
||||
├── ProjectTemplate.ts # TypeScript interfaces for templates
|
||||
├── EmbeddedTemplateProvider.ts # Provider for embedded templates
|
||||
├── templates/ # Template definitions
|
||||
│ └── hello-world.template.ts # Default Hello World template
|
||||
└── README.md # This file
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## How It Works
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Template Definition**: Templates are defined as TypeScript objects using the `ProjectTemplate` interface
|
||||
2. **Provider Registration**: The `EmbeddedTemplateProvider` is registered in `utils/forge/index.ts` with the highest priority
|
||||
3. **Template Usage**: When creating a new project, templates are referenced via `embedded://template-id` URLs
|
||||
4. **Project Creation**: The provider writes the template's `project.json` directly to the destination directory
|
||||
|
||||
## Creating a New Template
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 1: Define Your Template
|
||||
|
||||
Create a new file in `templates/` (e.g., `dashboard.template.ts`):
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
import { ProjectTemplate } from '../ProjectTemplate';
|
||||
|
||||
export const dashboardTemplate: ProjectTemplate = {
|
||||
id: 'dashboard',
|
||||
name: 'Dashboard Template',
|
||||
description: 'A dashboard with navigation and multiple pages',
|
||||
category: 'Business Apps',
|
||||
version: '1.0.0',
|
||||
thumbnail: undefined,
|
||||
|
||||
content: {
|
||||
name: 'Dashboard Project',
|
||||
components: [
|
||||
// Define your components here
|
||||
{
|
||||
name: 'App',
|
||||
visual: true,
|
||||
ports: [],
|
||||
visualStateTransitions: [],
|
||||
graph: {
|
||||
roots: [
|
||||
// Add your nodes here
|
||||
],
|
||||
connections: []
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
],
|
||||
settings: {},
|
||||
metadata: {
|
||||
title: 'Dashboard Project',
|
||||
description: 'A complete dashboard template'
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2: Register the Template
|
||||
|
||||
Add your template to `EmbeddedTemplateProvider.ts`:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
import { dashboardTemplate } from './templates/dashboard.template';
|
||||
|
||||
export class EmbeddedTemplateProvider implements ITemplateProvider {
|
||||
private templates: Map<string, ProjectTemplate> = new Map([
|
||||
['hello-world', helloWorldTemplate],
|
||||
['dashboard', dashboardTemplate] // Add your template here
|
||||
]);
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 3: Use Your Template
|
||||
|
||||
Create a project with your template:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
LocalProjectsModel.instance.newProject(
|
||||
(project) => {
|
||||
console.log('Project created:', project);
|
||||
},
|
||||
{
|
||||
name: 'My Dashboard',
|
||||
projectTemplate: 'embedded://dashboard'
|
||||
}
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Template Structure Reference
|
||||
|
||||
### Component Definition
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
{
|
||||
name: 'ComponentName', // Component name (use '/#__page__/Name' for pages)
|
||||
visual: true, // Whether this is a visual component
|
||||
ports: [], // Component ports
|
||||
visualStateTransitions: [], // State transitions
|
||||
graph: {
|
||||
roots: [/* nodes */], // Root-level nodes
|
||||
connections: [] // Connections between nodes
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Node Definition
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
{
|
||||
id: generateId(), // Unique node ID
|
||||
type: 'NodeType', // Node type (e.g., 'Text', 'Group', 'PageRouter')
|
||||
x: 100, // X position on canvas
|
||||
y: 100, // Y position on canvas
|
||||
parameters: { // Node parameters
|
||||
text: 'Hello',
|
||||
fontSize: { value: 16, unit: 'px' }
|
||||
},
|
||||
ports: [], // Node-specific ports
|
||||
children: [] // Child nodes (for visual hierarchy)
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Use the Helper Function**: Use the `generateId()` function for generating unique IDs
|
||||
2. **Structure Over Data**: Define component structure, not specific user data
|
||||
3. **Minimal & Clear**: Keep templates simple and focused on structure
|
||||
4. **Test Both Modes**: Test templates in both development and production builds
|
||||
5. **Document Purpose**: Add JSDoc comments explaining what the template provides
|
||||
|
||||
## Default Template
|
||||
|
||||
When no template is specified in `newProject()`, the system automatically uses `embedded://hello-world` as the default template.
|
||||
|
||||
## Advantages Over Previous System
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **No Path Resolution Issues**: Templates are embedded in code, bundled by webpack
|
||||
✅ **Dev/Prod Parity**: Works identically in development and production
|
||||
✅ **Type Safety**: Full TypeScript support with interfaces
|
||||
✅ **Easy to Extend**: Add new templates by creating a file and registering it
|
||||
✅ **No External Dependencies**: No need for external template files or URLs
|
||||
|
||||
## Migration from Old System
|
||||
|
||||
The old system used:
|
||||
|
||||
- Programmatic project creation (JSON literal in code)
|
||||
- File-based templates (with path resolution issues)
|
||||
- External template URLs
|
||||
|
||||
The new system:
|
||||
|
||||
- Uses embedded template objects
|
||||
- Provides a consistent API via `templateRegistry`
|
||||
- Maintains backward compatibility with external template URLs
