Since we have been able to register a toilet by submitting its price, address and review, it is fair to say that we should be able to update the toilet, especially its reivew when a reviewer wants to update the review. A page where one specific toilet show up with its information is where the update should happen. Let's build the very page!
For those who might read this article without reading the previous articles, I should mention the backend has been developed and interacted with this frontend work. You can find the backend code here
Toilet page
We have used App router to get dynamic routes using names of country, city and street so far. By the same token, adding [streetNumber]
, a specific toilet data matching the address will show up and it will look like:
Here is the code:
// ...
import Review from './reviewCard';
async function getToilet(address: AddressData): Promise<
| {
toilet: ToiletData;
}
| undefined
> {
try {
const { country, city, street, streetNumber } = address;
const res = await fetch('http://localhost:4000/graphql', {
method: 'POST',
body: JSON.stringify({
query: `{ toilet(
country: "${country}",
city: "${city}",
street: "${street}",
streetNumber: "${streetNumber}"
) {
id
price
isPaid
reviews {
id
contributedBy
cleanliness
performance
description
createdAt
}
}}`,
}),
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
},
next: { revalidate: 10 },
});
if (!res.ok) {
throw new Error('Failed to fetch toilet data in StreetNumber');
}
const dataObj = await res.json();
return dataObj.data;
} catch (err) {
console.log('Error getToilet func in StreetNumber', err);
}
}
export default async function StreetNumber({
params,
}: {
params: AddressData;
}) {
const result = await getToilet(params);
if (!result) return <div>There is no toilet registered on this address.</div>;
const toilet = result!.toilet;
return (
<main className='flex min-h-screen flex-col items-center justify-between p-24'>
<div className='z-10 max-w-5xl flex-col w-full items-center justify-between font-mono text-sm lg:flex'>
{/* ..more code on the repository written
at the bottom of this article.*/}
<section className='w-3/5 bg-white dark:bg-gray-900 py-8 lg:py-16 antialiased'>
<div className='max-w-2xl mx-auto px-4'>
<div className='flex justify-between items-center mb-6'>
<h2 className='text-lg lg:text-2xl font-bold text-gray-900 dark:text-white'>
Reviews
</h2>
</div>
{toilet.reviews.map((review: ReviewData, index: number) => {
return <Review key={index} review={review} />;
})}
</div>
</section>
</div>
</main>
);
}
As we enter toilets/Korea/Jeonju/Baekje-daero/32 which has been formed with an address stored in the database, this component will get Korea
, Jeonju
, Baekje-daero
, and 32
as its parameter. And then it will make a request to our backend server so that it will get a toilet data corresponding the address. Finally, the component will show the toilet data which includes its reviews.
Review card component
The toilet has its reviews and it can be more than just one review. For various reaons, it is a good practice to create a component for the reviews and import it on its parent component to display them so we will do it.
Here is the code:
'use client';
// more code on the repository written at the bottom of this article.
export default function ReviewCard({ review }: { review: any }) {
const [isOpenDropdown, setIsOpenDropdown] = useState(false);
const [willEdit, setWillEdit] = useState(false);
const [willRemove, setWillRemove] = useState(false);
useEffect(() => {
setWillEdit(false);
setWillRemove(false);
}, [review]);
function toggleDropdown() {
setIsOpenDropdown((prev) => !prev);
}
return (
<article className='p-6 text-base bg-white rounded-lg dark:bg-gray-900'>
{willEdit && (
<>
<button
className='z-20 fixed top-0 right-0 bottom-0 left-0 w-full h-full bg-gray-200'
onClick={() => setWillEdit(false)}
/>
<UpdateReview review={review} />
</>
)}
{willRemove && (
<>
<button
className='z-20 fixed top-0 right-0 bottom-0 left-0 w-full h-full bg-gray-200'
onClick={() => setWillRemove(false)}
/>
<DeleteReview review={review} />
</>
)}
<footer className='flex justify-between items-center mb-2'>
{/* ..more code on the repository written
at the bottom of this article.*/}
{isOpenDropdown && (
<>
<button
className='fixed top-0 right-0 bottom-0 left-0 w-full h-full'
onClick={() => setIsOpenDropdown(false)}
/>
<div
id='dropdownComment1'
className='z-10 w-36 bg-white rounded divide-y divide-gray-100 shadow dark:bg-gray-700 dark:divide-gray-600 absolute right-0 mt-2'
data-popper-placement='bottom'
>
<ul
className='py-1 text-sm text-gray-700 dark:text-gray-200'
aria-labelledby='dropdownMenuIconHorizontalButton'
>
<li className='block hover:bg-gray-100 dark:hover:bg-gray-600 dark:hover:text-white'>
<button
className='w-full py-2 px-4 text-start'
onClick={() => {
setWillEdit(true);
setIsOpenDropdown(false);
}}
>
Edit
</button>
</li>
<li className='block hover:bg-gray-100 dark:hover:bg-gray-600 dark:hover:text-white'>
<button
className='w-full py-2 px-4 text-start'
onClick={() => {
setWillRemove(true);
setIsOpenDropdown(false);
}}
>
Remove
</button>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</>
)}
</div>
</footer>
<p className='text-gray-500 dark:text-gray-400'>{review.description}</p>
</article>
);
}
Notice that there is
use client;
on the top of the code. If you do not put it up there, Nextjs will automatically take the script as a server script which means you cannot use any of client APIs such as useState, useEffect or useRef.
Update review component
To update a review, we will take the same approach as we did to register a toilet in the previous article, which is Server action. We will have UpdateReview
component that will take current review as a prop and then, make a update request to our backend server.
Here is the code:
'use client';
import { useRef } from 'react';
import { experimental_useFormStatus as useFormStatus } from 'react-dom';
import { updateReview } from './action';
function UpdateButton() {
const { pending } = useFormStatus();
return (
<div className='flex items-center justify-between'>
<button
className='bg-blue-500 hover:bg-blue-700 text-white font-bold py-1 px-2 rounded focus:outline-none focus:shadow-outline'
type='submit'
aria-disabled={pending}
>
Confirm
</button>
</div>
);
}
export default function UpdateReview({ review }: { review: any }) {
const passwordRef = useRef<HTMLInputElement>(null);
const cleanlinessRef = useRef<HTMLInputElement>(null);
const performanceRef = useRef<HTMLInputElement>(null);
const descriptionRef = useRef<HTMLTextAreaElement>(null);
return (
<form
className='z-30 w-1/2 h-auto fixed inset-x-1/4 inset-y-1/4 mx-auto bg-white px-4 py-8'
action={updateReview}
>
<div className='flex justify-between items-center mb-2'>
{/* ..more code on the repository written
at the bottom of this article.*/}
<div className='flex items-center my-2'>
<label className='text-gray-700 text-sm font-bold mb-2 mr-3'>
Password:{' '}
</label>
<input
className='shadow appearance-none border rounded py-2 px-3 text-gray-700 mb-3 leading-tight focus:outline-none focus:shadow-outline'
type='password'
name='password'
ref={passwordRef}
required
/>
</div>
<UpdateButton />
</form>
);
}
When a user click Confirm button after editing his review, it will trigger an action function updateReview
that is defined in action.ts
. That is where the update request is made. The fuction will console log a result depending on its response.
Here is what the component will render like:
In our backend server, we have made sure that only authenticated person is allowed to edit his or her review. That is why password
comes in.
Test
Before testing the senario, maks sure that we have a toilet that has one or more reviews to be updated on the database. You can simply create a few toilets using the graphql playground of our backend server.
Update a review
Result
In this article, neither I did go into the detail of how I implemented tailwind on the components, nor was its UI properly improved. It is because I just wanted to focus on enabling some core features first. I will make it look better as times goes by.
