HackerNews | Hacker News clone in PHP | Hacking library

Here is what I've done so far: There is an API (Hacker News - https://github.com/HackerNews/API) from which I send a GET request from my Java program and retrieve the data. I am able to parse the (JSON) data so that it can be manipulated by the JDK.

Here is what am trying to do next: I want to have my Java program/server communicate with my React application so that React can retrieve the parsed JSON data and display it on a webpage.

Confusion: How do I have React get the data? Do I set it up so that it sends a GET request from my Java server? I have consulted more tutorials than I can count, but I am simply not understanding how to do it.

My code can be found here https://github.com/EmekaEnshinyan/HackerNews-API-Design-Back-End

I installed golang and started with this tutorial: https://www.howtographql.com/graphql-go/1-getting-started/

When I run:

I'm having some problems with async function.

I have a class in my ../lib folder for processing data from an API website but i ran into problems when i try to load the api data in async function.

The async function dont even return anything, not even when i create object and try to return it inside the async function

All i get is {} empty object every time i call the function

Here is my code:

The Hacker News Firebase API is publicly available, with multiple endpoints allowing you to query for any news item and user. Also, as their Github readme states:

Up to 500 top and new stories are at /v0/topstories (also contains jobs) and /v0/newstories. Best stories are at /v0/beststories.

E.g., hitting https://hacker-news.firebaseio.com/v0/topstories.json?print=pretty returns the ID's of the top 500 stories on HN at that point in time.

My question is, how are these endpoints created and updated on the Firebase end? Firebase Database allows for some rules such as indexOn that optimises queries sorted by ID or upvotes etc..., but the user still needs to make a query requesting the sorted data, using orderBy() for example. I can see nowhere in the Firebase console or docs for creating these endpoints and keeping them updated in the cloud so the endpoint is always returning up-to-date data. How does this work?

I am trying to develop a client for Hacker News using this API, just for learning how Android works, as a personal project. I tried following some tutorials, but I am stuck at a certain point.

I want to retrieve the top N stories' titles, upvotes, etc. This would be done, using this api by:

1. Making a request to the api to retrieve the ID's of top posts (500 of them, to be exact)
2. For each ID, make a request to the api's posts endpoint to retrieve the details.

It seems that I am stuck on how to create N different network requests for the posts that I want, retrieving them and putting them on a List, then displaying them on my Fragment. I am trying to follow an MVVM pattern, with Repositories. The relevant files are here:

NewsApi.kt:

I have a Share Icon that looks like:

I want the first 5 icons to be shown. The 5th icon being the share icon.

I want the rest of the icons to be under share icon & when someone taps or hovers over it (either tap or hover as I don't know what would be best UX in this case), it should open to the right at their usual positions.

I have an array of 500 posts id. I need to get an array of the first 100 posts. So I do the following:

I am very new to scrapy and am at a point in my project where I am unsure how to proceed. My idea is that I want to scrape the first 2 pages of hackernews and print out all articles / titles with points above 300. Based on my limited knowledge the following code is the best way I could figure out how to get the information I want. My end goal is I need to compare the id with the post id to match them, add the points to the corresponding matches and then filter out points less than 300. I am not sure how I can compare the dictionary values that I have been able to scrape. The code is as follows:

I am in the Getting Started React + Apollo chapter: https://www.howtographql.com/react-apollo/1-getting-started/

When I enter the following query in the Prisma Playground (as the tutorial tells me to do):
