起因

好久没登上服务器,一上班手贱上去运行了一把ghost update,升级到ghost 3.18.1,结果在重启ghost服务时就卡住了,转了老半天没有结果。手工启动ghost报错。放狗搜了一番,说是Nodejs版本太低的原因。上ghost官网查了兼容列表,确实是推荐使用nodejs v12。于是升级nodejs,再升级了ghost-cli,但是ghost服务还是没法成功启动。

解决方法

开始想偷懒,想着大不了强制升级一次。于是运行强制升级命令。

ghost update --force

结果连升级都报错。

运行ghost doctor,诊断结果报unknown error。

没有办法,尝试直接ghost run,发现网站可以运行,但是会报一个错。

WARN Can't connect to the bootstrap socket (localhost 8000) ECONNREFUSED

打开ghost配置文件config.production.json,发现有一节bootstrap-socket的配置内容。备份配置文件,把该节内容整个删除。

重启ghost,服务恢复正常。

2019年5月20日,Oracle发布了JET 7.0.1版本,同时释出了JET Core Extension for VSCode Beta版。作为VS Code重度用户的俺来说,当然是第一时间下来尝鲜了。

因为是Beta版,该扩展并没有正式发布在VS Code Marketplace,需要在OTN下载手动安装。俺在MAC下用Chrome下载后,发现扩展程序安装文件扩展名为zip,VS Code并没不能辨认,尝试把文件扩展名手工改为VSIX,但在MAC下VS Code还是没能认出是扩展程序(ps:大概是文件权限的问题,但是找到了新方法,就没有去试)。

无意中发现使用Safari在OTN下载文件是正常的VSIX扩展名,后来在Oracle社区发现有人在讨论此问题,说Chrome会自动把文件扩展改为zip,换成Firefox或Edge下载就正常。

打开VS Code,点开左边扩展图标,点右上角的 “…” 打开更多操作菜单,选择“从VSIX安装…”。

 

选择下载的oracle-jet-core-0.5.0.vsix文件,安装JET Core Extension for VSCode。好了,现在可以体验JET的智能提醒和自动完成功能了。

[heading]1. Oracle JET是什么鬼[/heading]

按官方的说法,Oracle JET是给JavaScript开发者提供云端数据可视化的工具。JET使用了很多第三方的JavaScript库,例如jQuery,jQueryUI,Knockout,RequireJS和Hammer(如果在本地运行,需要Node.js支持)。

按俺的理解,JET就是O记把一堆前端工具整合到一起的大杂汇,让对前端框架不是特别熟的程序猿媛们能有一个快速开发响应式前端页面的路子。JET可以用于WEB页面开发,也可用于APP的开发。

JET的架构是这样的(基于MVVM设计模式)

从官方的示例程序来看,JET做出来的页面效果还是不错的。

[heading]2. 对Oracle JET的看法[/heading]

其实,开始的时候俺对Oracle JET的态度本来是抗拒的,认为没必要再重复造一个轮子。

wechatjet

个人对于知乎上这个问题的回答深以为然。

zhihujet

不过最近没有啥新东西玩,加上想在一些项目上看看能否把JET引进来(毕竟还是有些基于O记产品的项目), 于是报了官网上一个在线的JET Training,对着官方的文档安装环境。

 

[heading]3. 在Windows系统上安装JET[/heading]

Oracle官网上的步骤已经很详细,基本上照着示例步骤安装即可完成。JET提供两种安装方式(或者称之为JET应用生成方式),一种是前端狗熟悉的Yeoman生成方式,一是使用Netbeans IDE引入JET包的方式(在这时深深鄙视O记一把,居然不把自家JDeveloper的支持做出来,使得如果要用JET与ADF应用结合的话必须使用两个IDE进行开发)。

[accordion title=”3.1 以Yeoman方式安装” is_open=”yes”]

1).首先安装Git

下载Git Windows客户端,按提示完成安装。

2). 安装Node.js

前面提过,要在本地上运行JET必须Node.js支持,下载Windows下包含npm的Node.js安装包

稳定版的Node.js带的npm版本过低,我们需要升级npm,运行命令npm install –g npm进行升级。完成后用npm -v确认npm版本。

npmver

3). 安装Yeoman, Grunt, Bower工具包

运行命令npm –g install o bower grunt-cli,安装所需的工具包。

npmtool1

npmtool2

4). 安装JET Yeoman生成器

运行命令npm -g install generator-oraclejet

jetgenerator

5).基于模板生成第一个JET Web应用

运行命令yo oraclejet firstjet  –template=basic生成第一个JET Web应用。

firstjet1

firstjet2

应用生成成功后,用grunt生成并启动应用。

grunt build

grunt serve

firstjet3

访问本地服务地址,可以看到第一个JET应用的界面。

在stackoverflow上看到一则很好的关于jQuery背景的人该怎么看AngularJS,忍不住转过来。

1. Don’t design your page, and then change it with DOMmanipulations

In jQuery, you design a page, and then you make it dynamic. This is because jQuery was designed for augmentation and has grown incredibly from that simple premise.

But in AngularJS, you must start from the ground up with your architecture in mind. Instead of starting by thinking “I have this piece of the DOM and I want to make it do X”, you have to start with what you want to accomplish, then go about designing your application, and then finally go about designing your view.

2. Don’t augment jQuery with AngularJS

Similarly, don’t start with the idea that jQuery does X, Y, and Z, so I’ll just add AngularJS on top of that for models and controllers. This is really tempting when you’re just starting out, which is why I always recommend that new AngularJS developers don’t use jQuery at all, at least until they get used to doing things the “Angular Way”.

I’ve seen many developers here and on the mailing list create these elaborate solutions with jQuery plugins of 150 or 200 lines of code that they then glue into AngularJS with a collection of callbacks and $applys that are confusing and convoluted; but they eventually get it working! The problem is that in most cases that jQuery plugin could be rewritten in AngularJS in a fraction of the code, where suddenly everything becomes comprehensible and straightforward.

The bottom line is this: when solutioning, first “think in AngularJS”; if you can’t think of a solution, ask the community; if after all of that there is no easy solution, then feel free to reach for the jQuery. But don’t let jQuery become a crutch or you’ll never master AngularJS.

3. Always think in terms of architecture

First know that single-page applications are applications. They’re not webpages. So we need to think like a server-side developer in addition to thinking like a client-side developer. We have to think about how to divide our application into individual, extensible, testable components.

So then how do you do that? How do you “think in AngularJS”? Here are some general principles, contrasted with jQuery.

The view is the “official record”

In jQuery, we programmatically change the view. We could have a dropdown menu defined as a ul like so:

<ul class="main-menu">
    <li class="active">
        <a href="#/home">Home</a>
    </li>
    <li>
        <a href="#/menu1">Menu 1</a>
        <ul>
            <li><a href="#/sm1">Submenu 1</a></li>
            <li><a href="#/sm2">Submenu 2</a></li>
            <li><a href="#/sm3">Submenu 3</a></li>
        </ul>
    </li>
    <li>
        <a href="#/home">Menu 2</a>
    </li>
</ul>

In jQuery, in our application logic, we would activate it with something like:

$('.main-menu').dropdownMenu();

When we just look at the view, it’s not immediately obvious that there is any functionality here. For small applications, that’s fine. But for non-trivial applications, things quickly get confusing and hard to maintain.

In AngularJS, though, the view is the official record of view-based functionality. Our ul declaration would look like this instead:

<ul class="main-menu" dropdown-menu>
    ...
</ul>

These two do the same thing, but in the AngularJS version anyone looking at the template knows what’s supposed to happen. Whenever a new member of the development team comes on board, she can look at this and then know that there is a directive called dropdownMenu operating on it; she doesn’t need to intuit the right answer or sift through any code. The view told us what was supposed to happen. Much cleaner.

Developers new to AngularJS often ask a question like: how do I find all links of a specific kind and add a directive onto them. The developer is always flabbergasted when we reply: you don’t. But the reason you don’t do that is that this is like half-jQuery, half-AngularJS, and no good. The problem here is that the developer is trying to “do jQuery” in the context of AngularJS. That’s never going to work well. The view isthe official record. Outside of a directive (more on this below), you never, ever, never change the DOM. And directives are applied in the view, so intent is clear.

Remember: don’t design, and then mark up. You must architect, and then design.

Data binding

This is by far one of the most awesome features of AngularJS and cuts out a lot of the need to do the kinds of DOM manipulations I mentioned in the previous section. AngularJS will automatically update your view so you don’t have to! In jQuery, we respond to events and then update content. Something like:

$.ajax({
  url: '/myEndpoint.json',
  success: function ( data, status ) {
    $('ul#log').append('<li>Data Received!</li>');
  }
});

For a view that looks like this:

<ul class="messages" id="log">
</ul>

Apart from mixing concerns, we also have the same problems of signifying intent that I mentioned before. But more importantly, we had to manually reference and update a DOM node. And if we want to delete a log entry, we have to code against the DOM for that too. How do we test the logic apart from the DOM? And what if we want to change the presentation?

This a little messy and a trifle frail. But in AngularJS, we can do this:

$http( '/myEndpoint.json' ).then( function ( response ) {
    $scope.log.push( { msg: 'Data Received!' } );
});

And our view can look like this:

<ul class="messages">
    <li ng-repeat="entry in log">{{ entry.msg }}</li>
</ul>

But for that matter, our view could look like this:

<div class="messages">
    <div class="alert" ng-repeat="entry in log">
        {{ entry.msg }}
    </div>
</div>

And now instead of using an unordered list, we’re using Bootstrap alert boxes. And we never had to change the controller code! But more importantly, no matter where or how the log gets updated, the view will change too. Automatically. Neat!

Though I didn’t show it here, the data binding is two-way. So those log messages could also be editable in the view just by doing this: <input ng-model="entry.msg" />. And there was much rejoicing.

Distinct model layer

In jQuery, the DOM is kind of like the model. But in AngularJS, we have a separate model layer that we can manage in any way we want, completely independently from the view. This helps for the above data binding, maintains separation of concerns, and introduces far greater testability. Other answers mentioned this point, so I’ll just leave it at that.

Separation of concerns

And all of the above tie into this over-arching theme: keep your concerns separate. Your view acts as the official record of what is supposed to happen (for the most part); your model represents your data; you have a service layer to perform reusable tasks; you do DOM manipulation and augment your view with directives; and you glue it all together with controllers. This was also mentioned in other answers, and the only thing I would add pertains to testability, which I discuss in another section below.

Dependency injection

To help us out with separation of concerns is dependency injection (DI). If you come from a server-side language (from Java to PHP) you’re probably familiar with this concept already, but if you’re a client-side guy coming from jQuery, this concept can seem anything from silly to superfluous to hipster. But it’s not. 🙂

From a broad perspective, DI means that you can declare components very freely and then from any other component, just ask for an instance of it and it will be granted. You don’t have to know about loading order, or file locations, or anything like that. The power may not immediately be visible, but I’ll provide just one (common) example: testing.

Let’s say in our application, we require a service that implements server-side storage through a REST API and, depending on application state, local storage as well. When running tests on our controllers, we don’t want to have to communicate with the server – we’re testing the controller, after all. We can just add a mock service of the same name as our original component, and the injector will ensure that our controller gets the fake one automatically – our controller doesn’t and needn’t know the difference.

Speaking of testing…

4. Test-driven development – always

This is really part of section 3 on architecture, but it’s so important that I’m putting it as its own top-level section.

Out of all of the many jQuery plugins you’ve seen, used, or written, how many of them had an accompanying test suite? Not very many because jQuery isn’t very amenable to that. But AngularJS is.

In jQuery, the only way to test is often to create the component independently with a sample/demo page against which our tests can perform DOM manipulation. So then we have to develop a component separately and then integrate it into our application. How inconvenient! So much of the time, when developing with jQuery, we opt for iterative instead of test-driven development. And who could blame us?

But because we have separation of concerns, we can do test-driven development iteratively in AngularJS! For example, let’s say we want a super-simple directive to indicate in our menu what our current route is. We can declare what we want in the view of our application:

<a href="/hello" when-active>Hello</a>

Okay, now we can write a test for the non-existent when-active directive:

it( 'should add "active" when the route changes', inject(function() {
    var elm = $compile( '<a href="/hello" when-active>Hello</a>' )( $scope );

    $location.path('/not-matching');
    expect( elm.hasClass('active') ).toBeFalsey();

    $location.path( '/hello' );
    expect( elm.hasClass('active') ).toBeTruthy();
}));

And when we run our test, we can confirm that it fails. Only now should we create our directive:

.directive( 'whenActive', function ( $location ) {
    return {
        scope: true,
        link: function ( scope, element, attrs ) {
            scope.$on( '$routeChangeSuccess', function () {
                if ( $location.path() == element.attr( 'href' ) ) {
                    element.addClass( 'active' );
                }
                else {
                    element.removeClass( 'active' );
                }
            });
        }
    };
});

Our test now passes and our menu performs as requested. Our development is both iterative and test-driven. Wicked-cool.

5. Conceptually, directives are not packaged jQuery

You’ll often hear “only do DOM manipulation in a directive”. This is a necessity. Treat it with due deference!

But let’s dive a little deeper…

Some directives just decorate what’s already in the view (think ngClass) and therefore sometimes do DOM manipulation straight away and then are basically done. But if a directive is like a “widget” and has a template, it should also respect separation of concerns. That is, the template too should remain largely independent from its implementation in the link and controller functions.

AngularJS comes with an entire set of tools to make this very easy; with ngClass we can dynamically update the class; ngBind allows two-way data binding; ngShow and ngHide programmatically show or hide an element; and many more – including the ones we write ourselves. In other words, we can do all kinds of awesomeness without DOM manipulation. The less DOM manipulation, the easier directives are to test, the easier they are to style, the easier they are to change in the future, and the more re-usable and distributable they are.

I see lots of developers new to AngularJS using directives as the place to throw a bunch of jQuery. In other words, they think “since I can’t do DOM manipulation in the controller, I’ll take that code put it in a directive”. While that certainly is much better, it’s often still wrong.

Think of the logger we programmed in section 3. Even if we put that in a directive, we still want to do it the “Angular Way”. It still doesn’t take any DOM manipulation! There are lots of times when DOM manipulation is necessary, but it’s a lot rarer than you think! Before doing DOM manipulation anywhere in your application, ask yourself if you really need to. There might be a better way.

Here’s a quick example that shows the pattern I see most frequently. We want a toggleable button. (Note: this example is a little contrived and a skosh verbose to represent more complicated cases that are solved in exactly the same way.)

.directive( 'myDirective', function () {
    return {
        template: '<a class="btn">Toggle me!</a>',
        link: function ( scope, element, attrs ) {
            var on = false;

            $(element).click( function () {
                if ( on ) {
                    $(element).removeClass( 'active' );
                }
                else {
                    $(element).addClass( 'active' );
                }

                on = !on;
            });
        }
    };
});

There are a few things wrong with this:

  1. First, jQuery was never necessary. There’s nothing we did here that needed jQuery at all!
  2. Second, even if we already have jQuery on our page, there’s no reason to use it here; we can simply use angular.element and our component will still work when dropped into a project that doesn’t have jQuery.
  3. Third, even assuming jQuery was required for this directive to work, jqLite (angular.element) willalways use jQuery if it was loaded! So we needn’t use the $ – we can just use angular.element.
  4. Fourth, closely related to the third, is that jqLite elements needn’t be wrapped in $ – the element that is passed to the link function would already be a jQuery element!
  5. And fifth, which we’ve mentioned in previous sections, why are we mixing template stuff into our logic?

This directive can be rewritten (even for very complicated cases!) much more simply like so:

.directive( 'myDirective', function () {
    return {
        scope: true,
        template: '<a class="btn" ng-class="{active: on}" ng-click="toggle()">Toggle me!</a>',
        link: function ( scope, element, attrs ) {
            scope.on = false;

            scope.toggle = function () {
                scope.on = !scope.on;
            };
        }
    };
});

Again, the template stuff is in the template, so you (or your users) can easily swap it out for one that meets any style necessary, and the logic never had to be touched. Reusability – boom!

And there are still all those other benefits, like testing – it’s easy! No matter what’s in the template, the directive’s internal API is never touched, so refactoring is easy. You can change the template as much as you want without touching the directive. And no matter what you change, your tests still pass.

w00t!

So if directives aren’t just collections of jQuery-like functions, what are they? Directives are actuallyextensions of HTML. If HTML doesn’t do something you need it to do, you write a directive to do it for you, and then use it just as if it was part of HTML.

Put another way, if AngularJS doesn’t do something out of the box, think how the team would accomplish it to fit right in with ngClick, ngClass, et al.

Summary

Don’t even use jQuery. Don’t even include it. It will hold you back. And when you come to a problem that you think you know how to solve in jQuery already, before you reach for the $, try to think about how to do it within the confines the AngularJS. If you don’t know, ask! 19 times out of 20, the best way to do it doesn’t need jQuery and to try to solve it with jQuery results in more work for you.
