QUESTION
I thought I understood how to use async and await till I saw the below code snippet.
So there is an onInput event handler function attached to the movie input textbox. Within it is called the fetchData asynchronous function which uses the await keyword to wait for results from the axios.get function.
My question is, why do we need to make the onInput function also async? I mean, the fetchData function is async. Which means, it will wait till the axios.get is resolved and the execution will be paused till axios.get is resolved. So when the line const movies = fetchData(event.target.value); executes, the fetchData function will be executed which will pause on the await axios.get statement. So why do we need to use await while calling fetchData and make onInput async??
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-May-18 at 01:55You are using the await
operator inside inInput
. It's a JavaScript rule that functions using await
must be async, so inInput
must also be async. Have a look at this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/56685416/13357440
Also, MDN has useful information: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/await

I'm using an API to fetch movie data using axios in my React app. While this works in localhost, I've recently uploaded this to github pages where it no longer works and it results in this error.

QUESTION
I've created a static React website and hosted it on Github pages.
As you can see, whenever you click on a film or a TV series, a modal will appear with the film/tv poster(loaded from the OMDb API) and some metadata. The problem is that the content loads too slowly. It takes a second(sometimes more) before before the content appears.
I get that I can't expect it to load that much faster, but I would like to not show the modal at all before everything looks nice(i.e is perfectly loaded). Perhaps by having a "Loading.." appear while we wait. It doesn't have to be anything fancy, as it's only gonna be on the screen for 1-2 seconds at most.
Do you have any advice for a React beginner?

...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Apr-20 at 15:23If I understand your code correctly, you create a MediaModal
component, that has a child component ImdbInfo
, where you fetch some data. I guess this MediaModal
has a parent component where you toggle and use your modal: you didn't provide the code, but let's call it MainComponent
Instead of fetching data inside ImdbInfo
you could fetch them in MainComponent
and pass the result as props:

I got this code working pretty much how I want it. However, it's fetching & display data after each keystroke. I only want it to fetch once, when I hit submit.
Also, if there's anything i'm doing that's not "best practice" please let me know so I don't make silly mistakes in the future.

Answered 2021-Apr-15 at 17:12Since you only want it after submit

QUESTION
I have followed a tutorial online to create a movie app using Vue JS and fetch. The functionality, when working, is that I can search a movie and a number of results are populated on the screen including the poster, title and year. After completing the tutorial with everything working, I've tried to change which API I'm using (from omdb to themoviedb). After trying to hook up the new API, the search returns blank.
I've used the network tool on chrome to establish that I am receiving a response from the API, but somewhere I'm going wrong as nothing is displaying. Note: I know the poster will not work (because themoviedb returns this as an incomplete path) but why wont the title and year display? I've added my code below - please help me understand what I am missing.
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Apr-12 at 15:05Unfortunately there is no real standard on how to create an external facing API, that in mind every API decides to provide specific interfaces for interaction, as well as the structure of the resulting data. in your case the Search
attribute of the response was no longer being filled by the new api - which posted data to the results
attribute. debugging is a great way to learn and trace issues in your code.
Usually you can notice these differences in the API documentation - it is extremely helpful.
QUESTION
I'm working through a Javascript course and am working with the following code. I understand almost all of it but I'm struggling with following and understanding the logic flow through the code, particularly for the event objects and I want to make sure I'm super clear on this before continuing.
Almost the exact same question has been asked here by someone else with the same confusion but I can't make sense of any answers unfortunately.
Here's what I do understand so far:
A key gets pressed -> The debounce
function returns (and runs) with parameters func
and delay
. The func
parameter passed in is the onInput
function in this case, (which as I understand it, gets an event object returned to it automatically (by Javascript) when the addEventListener
fires).
However, onInput
is run nested inside the debounce
function with func.apply(null, args);
so I'm confused as to how the event objects get created and passed through the flow of the code when keys are pressed?
My main question following from this, is how or where does return (...args)
within the debounce
get its spread parameters from?
Doesn't the debounce
function get passed the event object in this case and not onInput
? If so, how does onInput
get access to the event object?
Here's the code:
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Feb-25 at 12:47The main thing to understand with your code is that the addEventListener()
function isn't in charge of calling the debounce()
function. The debounce()
function is called when the addEventListener
gets added to the input element, not when the input event occurs. This is because calling debounce()
invokes the function, passing whatever it returns as the second argument to addEventListener()
. With that in mind, you function can be re-written as this:
