New agent forest - How to display api chart in dashboard?

Hello :wave:

Feature(s) impacted

Dashboard & charts

Observed behavior

To try to integrate charts into the dashboard via the new agent forest, I copied the code shown in the example in the docs

But using the url /forest/_charts/transactionVolume, I get no result

Is it the url I’ve entered that’s wrong? or is it the code that’s wrong?

Expected behavior

Display the chart via the supplied api url

Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Hi @jacques_liao,

It’s clearly a problem on your server.
I tested the same example on the documentation and it works perfectly fine on my side.
Your stacktrace shows an error on rows. Do you have any rows variable inside your code ?

Hi @vince,

Thank you for your feedback.
In my code, I don’t have a rows variable lying around.

Could you share your files nostrumcare-forest/index.js please :thinking:?

require('dotenv').config();
const { createAgent } = require('@forestadmin/agent');
const { createSqlDataSource } = require('@forestadmin/datasource-sql');
const secretReader = require('./lib/secretReader');
const stripe = require('./lib/stripe');

// Create the Forest Admin agent.
/**
 * @type {import('@forestadmin/agent').Agent<import('./typings').Schema>}
 */
const agent = createAgent({
  // Security tokens
  authSecret: secretReader.readContent(process.env.FOREST_AUTH_SECRET),
  envSecret: secretReader.readContent(process.env.FOREST_ENV_SECRET),
  // authSecret: process.env.FOREST_AUTH_SECRET,
  // envSecret: process.env.FOREST_ENV_SECRET,

  // Make sure to set NODE_ENV to 'production' when you deploy your project
  isProduction: process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production',

  // Autocompletion of collection names and fields
  typingsPath: './typings.ts',
  typingsMaxDepth: 5,
});

// Connect to GATEWAY datasource
const gatewayDBPassword = secretReader.readContent(process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_GATEWAY_DATABASE_PASSWORD);
agent.addDataSource(
  createSqlDataSource({
    uri: `${process.env.DATABASE_DIALECT}://${process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_GATEWAY_DATABASE_USERNAME}:${gatewayDBPassword}@${process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_GATEWAY_DATABASE_HOST}:${process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_GATEWAY_DATABASE_PORT}/${process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_GATEWAY_DATABASE_NAME}`,
    schema: process.env.DATABASE_SCHEMA,
    sslMode: process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_GATEWAY_DATABASE_SSL_MODE,
  }),
);

// Connect to VITA datasource
// const vitaDBPassword = secretReader.readContent(process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_VITA_DATABASE_PASSWORD);
// agent.addDataSource(
//   createSqlDataSource({
//     uri: `${process.env.DATABASE_DIALECT}://${process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_VITA_DATABASE_USERNAME}:${vitaDBPassword}@${process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_VITA_DATABASE_HOST}:${process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_VITA_DATABASE_PORT}/${process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_VITA_DATABASE_NAME}`,
//     schema: process.env.DATABASE_SCHEMA,
//     sslMode: process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_VITA_DATABASE_SSL_MODE,
//   }), { rename: name => `NV_${name}` });

// Connect to PLUS datasource
const plusDBPassword = secretReader.readContent(process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_PLUS_DATABASE_PASSWORD);
agent.addDataSource(
  createSqlDataSource({
    uri: `${process.env.DATABASE_DIALECT}://${process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_PLUS_DATABASE_USERNAME}:${plusDBPassword}@${process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_PLUS_DATABASE_HOST}:${process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_PLUS_DATABASE_PORT}/${process.env.NOSTRUMCARE_PLUS_DATABASE_NAME}`,
    schema: process.env.DATABASE_SCHEMA,
    sslMode: process.env.DATABASE_SSL_MODE,
  }), { rename: name => `NP_${name}` });

agent.addChart('transactionVolume', async (context, resultBuilder) => {
  console.log("++++++++++++++++")
  return resultBuilder.objective(235, 300);
  // return resultBuilder.timeBased('Month', [
  //   { date: new Date('2017-02-01'), value: 636 },
  //   {
  //     date: new Date('2017-03-01'),
  //     value: 740,
  //   },
  //   {
  //     date: new Date('2017-04-01'),
  //     value: 648,
  //   },
  //   {
  //     date: new Date('2017-05-01'),
  //     value: 726,
  //   },
  // ]);
});

// Expose an HTTP endpoint.
agent.mountOnStandaloneServer(Number(process.env.APPLICATION_PORT));

// Start the agent.
agent.start().catch(error => {
  console.error('\x1b[31merror:\x1b[0m Forest Admin agent failed to start\n');
  console.error('');
  console.error(error.stack);
  process.exit(1);
});

I feel like I just had to re npm start

Okey so problem solved on your side ?

Yes, I think so :+1:
