Hi @jbescoyez !
You have Cannot reach your data displayed ?
The logs you shared are not error logs, do you have any other log ? What about your browser logs ?

jbescoyez · February 8, 2021, 3:18pm

Yes, I do have Cannot reach your data displayed.

I think the issue is at this line:

No template found for ForestLiana::UserSpace::UserController#index, rendering head :no_content

How comes the template is not found and therefore no content is sent?

Nothing special in my browser logs (just an error with Drift):

Nicolas_Sailly · February 8, 2021, 3:26pm

Can you share the UserController class please ?

jbescoyez · February 8, 2021, 3:44pm

Not sure to get you. Do you mean the ForestLiana::UserSpace::UserController or my UserController?

If it is mine, I am not sure it will help. I have the same behavior for all collections.

Nicolas_Sailly · February 8, 2021, 4:07pm

You are right, I won’t see anything there.
Your issue looks a lot like this one.
Are you using fast_jsonapi ?

jbescoyez · February 8, 2021, 4:11pm

Yes, I do. Does it mean that Forest is not compatible with the most famous jsonapi lib in Rails?

Nicolas_Sailly · February 8, 2021, 4:25pm

Actually it should, can you try changing mount ForestLiana::Engine => '/forest' to mount ForestLiana::Engine => '/forest', defaults: { format: 'json' } in your routes.rb ?

Let me know if it works !

jbescoyez · February 8, 2021, 8:01pm

Thank you. It solved the problem but another one arose.

Now, I get the following error:

Records Index error: undefined local variable or method `object' for #<ForestLiana::UserSpace::DocumentSerializer:0x00007ff83db0cfd8>
Did you mean?  object_id

...

I’ve dug a bit and realized that you use GitHub - fotinakis/jsonapi-serializers: Pure Ruby readonly serializers for the JSON:API spec. and I use GitHub - jsonapi-serializer/jsonapi-serializer: A fast JSON:API serializer for Ruby (fork of Netflix/fast_jsonapi) (the new name of fast_jsonapi). The two libraries define the following constant JSONAPI::Serializer with a different API.

I do not really know what to do. What do you recommend?

Hey @jbescoyez,

Thanks for taking the time to look into it. I created an issue, you can follow its progress here:

jbescoyez · May 6, 2021, 3:26pm

Hey @vince Is it still under your radar? Tnx

arnaud · May 7, 2021, 9:15am

Hi @jbescoyez, sorry we delayed this topic, waiting for a dedicated Rails developer to join the team.
As we didn’t find the right teammate (yet), I think we’ll have to prioritise the investigations about this issue and have a look at it next week.
