Hello,

How to configure the path to the razor pages? I'm getting the following error:

System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path '/app/Components/Pages'.

Thanks!

tesar-tech commented 4 weeks ago

You probably use absolute path, try this instead: app/Components/Pages.

Did that help?

With the upcoming version it will find all the .razor pages automatically, so there will be no need to specify the RazorPagesPaths... We considered also to ignore certain paths, is that something you would use?

The new version is almost ready, but we can squeeze more into that https://github.com/tesar-tech/BlazorStatic/blob/master/BlazorStaticWebsite/Content/Blog/release-1.0.0-beta.10.md

ollih1980 commented 4 weeks ago

yes, I've added

builder.Services.AddBlazorStaticService(opt => {
    opt.RazorPagesPaths.Clear();
    opt.RazorPagesPaths.Add("Pages"); 
});

And now it's proceeding. But getting an additional error

BlazorStatic.Services.BlazorStaticService: Warning: Failed to retrieve page at Redirect. StatusCode:(null). Error: IPv4 address 0.0.0.0 and IPv6 address ::0 are unspecified addresses that cannot be used as a target address. (Parameter 'hostName') ([::]:443)

Can you tell me more about the setup? Where is it running? How is it running?

On what ip address is it supposed to run?

When you call UseBlazorStaticGenerator it find the first address from the WebApplication. See this line:

https://github.com/tesar-tech/BlazorStatic/blob/2d62ad4328c47530104084704de5572537fa84c9/src/BlazorStaticExtensions.cs#L144

Maybe that's not sufficient for your case.

ollih1980 commented 4 weeks ago

It's running in a local docker container (base mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/aspnet:8.0). Docker in running on a windows host (VS 2022). IP Adresse will change depending on avalibility and docker config. Maybe could be a option to implement a fallback like 127.0.0.1 if the IP is 0.0.0.0.

tesar-tech commented 4 weeks ago

Oh, yeah. I see, I see. So it takes the "inner" ip address, not the one exposed by docker, right?

What about option to configure the url?

builder.Services.AddBlazorStaticService(opt => {
    opt.AppUrl = "127.0.0.1"
});

would that work for you?

Can you think of an another approach?

The 127.0.0.1 might not work, because we also need a port, don't we?

How urgent is that for you now? I can promis, it will be solved in a near future. It is definitely issue that needs to be solved...

ollih1980 commented 4 weeks ago

Port seems to be correct, as in the error message. But IP may also change during the lifecycle. It would be good to get the IP adress from the system... Let me think how to get it. I will create a PR for this.

ollih1980 commented 3 weeks ago

With some code changes I got it to work. (PR: https://github.com/tesar-tech/BlazorStatic/pull/25) But now getting an additional error in the generated index.html An unhandled exception has occurred. See browser dev tools for details.

But I can't click on this... as this is in the generated file. Any idea?

tesar-tech commented 3 weeks ago

I am afraid we are trying to solve two things -> Running the app inside the docker and whatever specific you have in your codebase... But we'll get there no matter what.

Can you run the app (not killing it after file generation)? Is the issue only in the generated file?
maybe you want to set the ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT to Development, thus it should tell you more..
You should be able to see the error messages in console where it runs the app...
Does it work for you when you hardcode the appurl to 127.0.0.1:APP_PORT ?

Can you provide me with a simple Dockerfile configuration? I will try to run the minimal app in the docker and see if something has change....

If you could invite me to the repo where you trying to solve the issues, it would also allow us to proceed faster (but of course I understand you cannot)

ollih1980 commented 3 weeks ago

---> Yes, only in the generated file

--> set this. But no further output, no additional messages. There are no error messages at all
You should be able to see the error messages in console where it runs the app...
--> no error messages
Does it work for you when you hardcode the appurl to 127.0.0.1:APP_PORT ?
-->this was my first try. I hard coded it and with deactivation of SSL cert check it worked... at least no error messages

ollih1980 commented 3 weeks ago

I think the problem is, that the with the use of httpclient a new "Webbrowser" instance gets created and I've a lot of models and dynamic data within my components. Even there is a need to login before accessing the page. With the new instance all those data got lost.

tesar-tech commented 3 weeks ago

Ok. So I have added the default docker file that Rider throwed at me,.. And it seems to be working quite well:

The output folder contains everything it is supposed to. Also the logs have no issues

info: BlazorStatic.Services.BlazorStaticService[0]

also the app is running on http://127.0.0.1:8080/

I pushed the dockerfile, you can compare the differences with your real setup..

I guess it works because of your addition with changing the address...

What exactly is your setup and desired outcome? You have a Blazor app which just runs and you trying to generate state pages out of it? What exactly means this: -->this was my first try. I hard coded it and with deactivation of SSL cert check it worked... at least no error messages - were you able to generate the static pages?

ollih1980 commented 3 weeks ago

The logs are looking the same:

info: BlazorStatic.Services.BlazorStaticService[0]
      Generating /Index into /Index/index.html
BlazorStatic.Services.BlazorStaticService: Information: Generating /Index into /Index/index.html
BlazorStatic.Services.BlazorStaticService: Information: Generating / into /index.html

      Generating /Redirect into /Redirect/index.html
BlazorStatic.Services.BlazorStaticService: Information: Generating /Redirect into /Redirect/index.html

Also folder structure looks okay to me:

but the index.html looks like this:

Isn't your page server interactive?
What happens if you access the page through the browser when the app is running?

ollih1980 commented 3 weeks ago

What do you mean by interactive? My app creates a some kind of reports after the user uploaded the data. The data is stored in different models. When I access the page, I need to login first, via SSO Auth, then I can access the page and create the reports, after this I would like to access the static html with all the content generated.

tesar-tech commented 3 weeks ago

I mean Blazor Server interactivity. Because BlazorStatic is meant to be used with SSR, mainly from the reasons that it is more straightforward.

btw the <div id="blazor-error-ui"> is always there, it is just made visible when something wrong happens.. In your html you also have multiple <body> tags and they are arranged quite weirdly... I don't know what is causing this..

The auth will be an issue here, because obviously the httpClient isn't authorized. But there are ways how to do it.

ollih1980 commented 3 weeks ago

I think the logon is a blocking issue. The Auth is handled via SSO and the only way, I can think of, to solve this is to transfer the current session, incl. models, data etc. Any idea how to handle this?

tesar-tech commented 3 weeks ago

I guess you probably need something like this:

var httpClient = new HttpClient();
httpClient.DefaultRequestHeaders.Authorization = new AuthenticationHeaderValue("Bearer", "your_token_here");

I can let users to define their own HttpClient instead of creating new one by BlazorStatic. With that is should be pretty straightforward to setup everything.

Can you try to hardcode the token for now and test the solution?

kijanawoodard commented 2 weeks ago

I ran into the "Pages problem" myself. Looking forward to not needing to specify them. I'm not using markdown files in this project so I had to list all the routes.

Example: options.PagesToGenerate.Add(new("src/Components/Pages/About", "/about/index.html"));

Pro Tip related to building Pages: for the launch profile to run on your build server, use http instead of https. Everything worked locally because dev certs were in place, but it failed in the build pipeline. Actually, the build "worked", but only the main index.html was produced. The other pages didn't make it. The logs had an error about SSL which led me to the solution. I suppose you could also install dev-certs as part of the pipeline, but I didn't explore that option.

The launch profile in the docs works: https://tesar-tech.github.io/BlazorStatic/docs/deployment

tesar-tech commented 2 weeks ago

Hey @kijanawoodard . New version is alive . Please let me know how it works.

I would like to discuss the http vs https, but it is OT here. Can you create new issue or rise the topic on discord?

tesar-tech commented 2 weeks ago

@ollih1980 Any progress on this?

kijanawoodard commented 1 week ago

Hey @kijanawoodard . New version is alive . Please let me know how it works.

Upgraded to beta10 and removed all my custom page route code. Works!
