Good day,
Can someone explain how I can connect my buildfire SDK to datastore, using the API key. what file do I go to, to do this?
My suggestion is that you use the BuildFire CLI to help you develop plugins. It makes the whole process much easier.
You can get started by installing it from npm:
npm install buildfire-cli -g
Here's a detailed blog posting covering the setup.

Just starting with JavaScript. Do I have to have Lite Server or can I use VS Code's Liveserver extension instead? Any research I've done on the topic leads into node.js, package.json, and NPMs which I don't understand.
If Lite Server is needed, do you install it through terminal/command line or do you have to install it in the html document you want to apply it to? Thanks.
They are both pretty similar and for your purposes, VSCode's Live server will work fine for you especially if you are not familiar with npm, node, and do not have a package.json.
If you would like to learn more about npm and what a package.json is check this out.
I recently trying to use some client-side github packages, and when trying to use them the developers mentions that the packages are downloadable with npm, which I cant understand due to the fact that those are client side javascript packages.
I saw something with import method which I also don't know.
can someone please explain how npm suppose to be used on client side, or how else am I suppose to use those packages?
an example is html2canvas, I just can't figure out how to actually use this package.
much thanks!
Usage and installation for html2canvas is described below:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/html2canvas
In nutshell npm packages usage can be explained so:
Install package using npm
Import required class/functionality from node_modules
Use as in documentation:
html2canvas(document.body).then(function(canvas) {
document.body.appendChild(canvas);
});
Bundler will attach all required functionality by itself.
I am currently learning React.js from this course on Udemy. I've reached Lecture 27 and I'm at a standstill. I keep getting the error "Firebase is not a constructor." Just from looking at other people's issues, I've figured out that I need to downgrade Firebase down to V. 2. The only question is, how do I go about doing this?
I went to my app.jsx file and changed Firebase down to "^2.4.2". I also reloaded my entire app. I still get the same error, "Firebase is not a constructor".
Can anyone give me any pointers here? I'd really like to get this app to work. What else do I need to change?
Uninstall the firebase by npm uninstall firebase then npm install --save firebase#2.3.2or #2.2.7 etc, hope i helped (Y)
Im also starting to learn Firebase. Saw this thread relative to your question. It
stated that Firebase team updated their web SDK.
I'm taking the same course and had the same problem. The command npm install --save firebase which Stephen (the guy teaching the course) referred to now automatically installs version 3.x of Firebase.
You can just go into the working directory of your project and specify the version of firebase you want to install. He was using v2.3.2 at the time he created the course, so just run the command npm install --save firebase#2.3.2 and that's what fixed it for me. It will overwrite the v3.x you had previously installed in your project.
I was learning from the Udemy video and had the same issue as yours. I changed Firebase down to ^2.4.2 deleted my node_modules and run npm install and it worked. Don't forget to delete your node_modules and npm install it again.
I'm very new to underscore, node, npm etc but I think I'm getting the hang of it. However, I just went on to the underscore.js site to get a copy of it and I saw that there is an option to install via npm or bower. Out of curiosity I ran the install in the rood directory of my project but nothing happened. I'll just link to the underscore library in my index.html, so no worries there. However I don't understand why it is even an option to install with npm. Could someone kindly explain this?
This is in the case you want to require underscore for your server-side code. Then you can add it to your package.json just like any another dependency.
There is nothing browser specific about underscore.js. There is an optional to install it via NPM because people use it with Node.js.
Bower, on the other hand, is a tool for managing client side JS dependancies for websites, so (assuming you are using it to manage your websites JS libraries) you can use it with your website.
I need to use natural (https://github.com/NaturalNode/natural), a nodejs library inside a Meteor project.
If I install natural using npm inside my Meteor project, it throws a bunch of erros becouse certain aspects are incompatible: (Doctype HTML in html file headers, for example, which meteor doesn´t like much.)
Can anyone teach me how to turn natural in an meteor package or just tell me how to solve this problem?
Thanks,
Try this project. I haven't tried it myself, but there are likely some leads there.
Try this package in Atmosphere (a collection of Meteor packages) https://atmospherejs.com/package/natural
To install packages from Atmosphere,
You will need meteorite:
npm install -g meteorite
install the package:
mrt add natural
run your project
mrt
Easy this time ;) Enjoy!
