Nothing is more frustrating than failing on a simple task.
I am following along with : https://docs.mongodb.com/stitch/getting-started/first-stitch-app/ - and I get to setp 9 - which is supposed to clear the permissions rule, so anyone can view my posts; however, I still get the permissions error.
Uncaught (in promise) Error: no rule exists for namespace 'blog.comments'
at client.js:343
at <anonymous>
Here's the entire code - but I suspect the error is on the stitch setting side. YES - i have replaced "your-app-id" with my app id... I DID clear the filter, and I did change the READ permission to {}...
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/stitch-sdks/js/library/v2/stable/stitch.min.js"></script>
<script>
const client = new stitch.StitchClient('<your-app-id>');
const db = client.service('mongodb', 'mongodb-atlas').db('blog');
function displayComments() {
db.collection('comments').find({}).execute().then(docs => {
var html = docs.map(c => '<div>' + c.comment + '</div>').join('');
document.getElementById('comments').innerHTML = html;
});
}
function displayCommentsOnLoad() {
client.login().then(displayComments)
}
function addComment() {
var c = document.getElementById('new_comment');
db.collection('comments').insertOne({owner_id : client.authedId(), comment: c.value})
.then(displayComments);
c.value = '';
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="displayCommentsOnLoad()">
<h3>Aspirational blog post</h3>
<div id="content">
I like to write about technology, because I want to get on the front page of hacker news (in a good way).
</div>
<hr>
<div id="comments"></div>
<hr>
Add comment:
<input id="new_comment"><input type="submit" onClick="addComment()">
</body>
</html>
Cant go any further, if the first real steps fail. ANY help is appreciated.
Go to
mongodb-atlasin theStitchconsole and cross check if you have a collection namedblog.comments. It's not the permission error, it's most likely due to the absence of the collection algogether.I tried setting up stitch once and got into the same problem. Just make sure if the
<databasename>.<collectionname>is matching with what you are using in your script which here should beblog.comments. Or just try deleting the collection from there and create a new one.
