Per a user on slack, the following documentation: https://strapi.io/documentation/developer-docs/latest/content-api/api-endpoints.html#update-an-entry is not quite clear if the content/open hours are relations or components.

As we don't support nested relational POST/PUT request, we should clarify this documentation to show those are components.

Bug report

Describe the bug

strapi.log.debug() cannot be used to print objects unless you pass a string as a first argument first.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Put strapi.log.debug({works: false}) in your code
2. Run your code
3. See undefined printed rather than your passed object
4. Put strapi.log.debug("", {works: true}) in your code
5. Run your code
6. See your passed object printed

Expected behavior

I expect strapi.log.debug() to print exactly what I passed, prefixed with a timestamp.

How to manipulate data before writing into a db and reading from db ( example Crypto )?

Bug report

Describe the bug

I was following the strapi testing documentation when this arose.

I was trying to test a strapi endpoint and inserting user data into the db when it can gave an error that data could not be inserted into read-only db

I have just copied this test - https://strapi.io/documentation/developer-docs/latest/guides/unit-testing.html#testing-auth-endpoint-controller

const userData = {
  username: 'tester',
  email: '[email protected]',
  provider: 'local',
  password: '1234abc',
  confirmed: true,
  blocked: null,
};

beforeEach(async () => {
			await strapi.plugins['users-permissions'].services.user.add({
				...userData,
			});
		});

The error was this

"before each" hook for "blank request does not give 2xx status code":
     insert into `users-permissions_user` (`blocked`, `confirmed`, `created_at`, `email`, `password`, `provider`, `updated_at`, `username`) values (NULL, true, '2021-01-10 20:15:14.452', '[email protected]', '$2a$10$o/DBLodkVtamQOK.4HHm3Opi6lkB33EVOzswaVOsipEfwtByNaOGW', 'local', '2021-01-10 20:15:14.452', 'tester') - SQLITE_READONLY: attempt to write a readonly database              
  Error: SQLITE_READONLY: attempt to write a readonly database

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Follow the testing documentation - https://strapi.io/documentation/developer-docs/latest/guides/unit-testing.html

Expected behavior

Data to be inserted in the db.

Screenshots

Code snippets

My test config for the db is this:

{
		defaultConnection: 'default',
		connections: {
			default: {
				connector: 'bookshelf',
				settings: {
					client: 'postgres',
					database: dbConfig.database,
					host: dbConfig.host,
					port: dbConfig.port,
					username: dbConfig.user,
					password: dbConfig.password,
					ssl: {
						rejectUnauthorized: false,
					},
				},
				options: {
					ssl: true,
				},
			},
		},
	};

System

• Node.js version: 12.20.1
• NPM version: 6.14.10

• Database: SQLite3

Additional context

Describe the bug
When running Strapi with a custom JWT_TOKEN, login works and returns a JWT. Using this JWT to authenticate API requests results in HTTP 403 with the message "Invalid credentials".

The only way for me to avoid this is to delete jwt.js and let Strapi auto-generate the file. As soon as I change the file, authentication breaks again, and can again only be fixed by deleting jwt.js.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Create jwt.js exactly as per https://strapi.io/documentation/v3.x/plugins/users-permissions.html#security-configuration
2. Start Strapi strapi develop
3. UI: Create user, add to predefined "Authenticated" group. Allow "Authenticated" to "find" on the resource.
4. Log in - POST /auth/local . Succeeds and returns a JWT.
5. GET /my-resource with header "Authorization: " returns HTTP 403, "Invalid credentials".

If Step 1. is omitted and jwt.js is deleted instead, the bug does not happen.

Expected behavior
GET /my-resource returns HTTP 200 and data, like what's described before when the jwt.js is re-generated.

Screenshots

Code snippets
jwt.js

module.exports = {
  jwtSecret: process.env.JWT_SECRET
};

I verified that JWT_SECRET is set.

System

• Node.js version: v10.16.3
• NPM version: v6.13.4
• Strapi version: v3.1.3
• Database: PostgreSQL
• Operating system: linux

Summary

Currently our documentation only offers commands for Ubuntu based linux distributions, as we also support RedHat these should be documented.

Why is it needed?

RedHat is an operating system that Strapi supports, and is generally used within enterprise environments.

Suggested solution(s)

Work through documentation to locate Ubuntu based guides and update them to add in specific RedHat commands as well. Similarly we need to document OS requirements (packages) needed within RedHat based systems.

The problem comes from the file /plugins/wysiwyg/admin/src/components/Wysiwyg/index.js because the Editor component is rendered even if the value prop is still null. As a hotfix I added conditional rendering {value && <Editor name={name} onChange={onChange} value={value} />} but it must have a cleaner solution.

Summary

Hi first I love Strapi as noob I like the feature to add a field for UIDs but it could be awsome have an option to mix more than one fields to make a UID 😍.

Why is it needed?

It's very helpful creating UID for schools by combining class name, group name and roll number to make and id like
👉 CLS9-SCI-123 [Class-Group-Roll]
Or in banking system like branch and account number and type like 👉 NYC-12458447854-SVN [Btanch-Acc No-Savings]

While creating this PR #102 I mentioned that User model lifecycle hooks should be placed at ./extensions/users-permissions/models/User.js. That works for me in diferent local environments and in Heroku.

In case ./api/user/models/User.js was the previous place for that file and at some point the path was changed to the one I mentioned in that PR, I'd suggest to just modify the path in the documentation.

I want Nginx to redirect all the request from www.mydomain.com/admin to strapi admin page.
This is my nginx config:

    server_name localhost;

    location /admin/ {
        proxy_pass http://api:1337/admin/;

Everything works fine and the app starts and works normally. However when I try to access the admin page of strapi I have the following error:

What is the expected behavior?
Admin page should load normally

Sorry @soupette I am the first

Feature request

Add a sample call example to create a custom route through cli, similar to controllers.

Please describe your feature request

I was doing my custom controller to do a simple function (does not require a content-type)
my controller was called, "globalcalls", needed it to add a function to get counters and statistics for all my main contents (number of posts, number of comments, number of users)
however, reading the docs to find out how to link the controller function to a route, was not clear. I had to read the cli --help and guess that the generate:api is to create a route (obvious but not too obvious since strapi is all an api)

strapi generate:api globalcalls

this created the custom route file for me

Why is it needed?

I like the docs of strapi and thought it should be consistent between different pages.

Suggested solution(s)

just add the sample code below to the page, similar to the creating controllers page

strapi generate:api globalcalls

Summary

For example, I use strapi to manage two websites. On the right side, I use "collection types" to display them in groups. I think this will be better.

Why is it needed?

I use strapi to manage two websites or more, I need search "collection types" not friendly

Suggested solution(s)

Add "collection types" group, on the side, like meunu show information.

Related issue(s)/PR(s)

No response

The easiest way to add a slug field to a Type is to use a UID field and set its Attached field to the desired "full name" field.

This should be mentionned at least in a warning at the top of the "Create a Slug System" documentation https://strapi.io/documentation/v3.x/guides/slug.html
(I guess that documentation is still useful if one wants to tweak the way slugs are created)

Documentation update:

https://strapi.io/documentation/developer-docs/latest/guides/client.html#initialize-the-client

With the current implementation the following code gives an error on startup

Path — ./hooks/github/index.js

const GitHubAPI = require('@octokit/rest');

module.exports = strapi => {
  return {
    async initialize() {
      const { token } = strapi.config.get('hook.settings.github');

      strapi.services.github = new GitHubAPI({
        userAgent: `${strapi.config.get('info.name')} v${strapi.config.get('info.version')}`,
        auth: `token ${token}`,
      });
    },
  };
};

Error

error TypeError: Octokit is not a constructor

Solution - replace above code with following

const { Octokit } = require("@octokit/rest");

module.exports = strapi => {
  return {
    async initialize() {
      const { token } = strapi.config.get('hook.settings.github');

      strapi.services.github = new Octokit({
        userAgent: `${strapi.config.get('info.name')} v${strapi.config.get('info.version')}`,
        auth: `token ${token}`,
      });
    },
  };
};

This is as per https://octokit.github.io/rest.js/v18 documentation

Summary

Currently, there is no documentation for developers to add custom permissions that can be added to Admin user roles.

Why is it needed?

When I was building a custom plugin, I found it difficult to figure out how to add custom permissions and a section to the Settings > Administration Panel / Roles > Edit Role page for my plugin.

Suggested solution(s)

There should be documentation added about adding Permissions. I'm thinking this could be at Concepts > Permissions or at Local Plugins > Back-end Development > Permissions.

New version 3.4.0 dont show JSON data in admin.

Is saving data, but in admin panel show as empty field

What happened

After installing the graphql using npm.
Then I opened http://localhost:1337/graphql then fetched public data which works fine,
after that I tried to fetched private data which needs the JWT Token.

I copy-paste the header example in the docs. (replaced with working jwt token)

{
  Authorization: "Bearer eyMyVeryLongTokenWhichWorksFineInPostMan"
}

But it returns a super long error JSON with message: "Forbidden" and statusCode: 403 along the line.

It then took me a long time to realize that the "Authorization" word must be enclosed in quotes like the one below.

{
  "Authorization": "Bearer eyMyVeryLongTokenWhichWorksFineInPostMan"
}

After enclosing the Authorization with quotes everything works fine.

Suggestion

In https://strapi.io/documentation/developer-docs/latest/plugins/graphql.html#authentication

Change this

From:
"... header in the form of { Authorization: "Bearer YOUR_JWT_GOES_HERE" }. This can be set in the HTTP Headers ..."

To: (Authorization -> "Authorization")
"... header in the form of { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_JWT_GOES_HERE" }. This can be set in the HTTP Headers ..."

This will help future devs copy-pasting from docs save time from a typo.

Summary

First, thank you for the amazing work you are doing. We have more and more projects using Strapi in my company (Theodo) and we love it!

We recently upgraded from 3.1.4 to 3.3.0 (3.4.0 is coming), and we faced an issue regarding the custom admin translations customization we put in place. After the upgrade we ran into a blank page containing this error in the console without knowing where it came from:

TypeError: Cannot read property 'fr' of undefined
    at LocaleToggle.render (main.e4eafec9.chunk.js:81199)
    at gi (main.e4eafec9.chunk.js:99104)

    at push.exports.unstable_runWithPriority (main.e4eafec9.chunk.js:99252)
    at cg (main.e4eafec9.chunk.js:99044)

Why is it needed?

After digging into it we realised the structure of the admin/src/translations/index.js file had changed between 3.1.4 and 3.2.3 in the docs:

In 3.1.4 documentation:

import en from './en.json';
import fr from './fr.json';

const trads = {
  en,
  fr,
};

export default trads;

In 3.2.3 documentation:

import en from './en.json';
import fr from './fr.json';

const trads = {
  en,
  fr,
};

export const languageNativeNames = { // This object was added
  en: 'English',
  fr: 'Français',
};

export default trads;

Suggested solution(s)

I suggest adding a few lines in the 3.1.x to 3.2.3 migration guide to mention adding this object.

If you want to extend the function, you will create own plugin. strapi provides some shared helper component which you can use for building UI of plugin. I think it's better to use those components as much as possible to make components can provide same experience.
Currently we don't have style guide of strapi-helper-plugin, so it's hard to use those components. If there is style guide, developers can easily find component which developer wants.

Summary

A Proper guide on how to use the Strapi CLI using

npx create-strapi-app my-project

Specifically WITHOUT the --quickstart flag.

Why is it needed?

So it can describe every step the user needs to take if they are not using services like Heroku. Currently, there are only good step-by-step tutorials on how to deploy on services like Heroku.

I just tried to see how to deploy it myself, but I can't wrap my head around it to understand it fully. When it asked for Database, host, port, username and password, I answered it with my FTP credentials. But was it the correct thing to do? I got an error message at least. So a guide on how to properly do it would be great.

Suggested solution(s)

Either a YouTube VIdeo on how to do that or a guide on the documentation.

cannot be able to install strapi in my project always show error

Just wanted to give a small update to those submitting issues and PRs (sorry on the late notice)

Our documentation has been under a change freeze for the beginning part of 2021 and this will probably continue until the end of Feb 2021 as we are doing some major restructuring. Please note that small PRs will most likely not be merged unless they are based on the new structure.

We will hold this PRs and once we are ready to review and merge we may ask you to modify it to point to the new location of the file. You are welcome to still submit just please note we may not look at them until March.

If you have any questions about this please do let me know.

Summary

Create a video for deployment to AWS or a shorter or maybe updated version of AWS hosting.

Why is it needed?

I found the documentation of AWS hosting is really hard to follow and I wasn't able to deploy it to AWS successfully following the documentation.

Describe the bug

There used to be a dropdown menu for selecting the strapi version used in order to check the documentation. Now there's onle strapi 'Latest - 3.x.x'

Additional context

The problem is that I wanted to see how to activate a sendgrid provider for my strapi version 3.0.0.beta20 and following the documentation it doesn't work. Luckily I had another old proyect where I did that and I could figure out how to do it for that version. Why would the old version docs be removed?

Suggested improvements or fixes

Have documentation for older strapi versions as it used to be.

Reference/example api config doc:

https://strapi.io/documentation/developer-docs/latest/concepts/configurations.html#api

has: privateAttributes: ['_v', 'id', 'created_at'],
This means these attributes will be "sanitized" out of the returned object.

However id attribute is needed on client-side.

What I would expect...

The example documentation doesn't contain sample config that is broken with a default install as it may take users a long time poking through the code-base and adding debug logging statements to track down why this is broken.

Is there an example how to customize a controller? I wish to manipulate data before read and save or update.
thanks.

Summary

"docs" folder, README-CN.md

Why is it needed?

Adding README-CN.md can make it easier for native Chinese developers to read README.

Suggested solution(s)

Step 1. Add a "docs" folder, so that you can add more languages to the README in the future.
Step 2. Add README-CN.md in the "docs" folder.
Step 3. Set a hyperlink in README.md to jump to README-CN.md.

I have been looking for documentation about adding custom fields to the default registration process by found nothing in particular detailing the process - neither on the docs nor in the forums.

How to define custom fields for the UsersPermissionsRegisterInput type?

Link to the documentation page or resource

https://strapi.io/documentation/developer-docs/latest/admin-panel/customization.html#styles

Describe the bug

If anyone needs to change the Strapi admin panel's Left-Menu-Header's color, the documentation tells to change the style in this folder :
./admin/src/components/LeftMenu/LeftMenuHeader/Wrapper.js
But in actual the admin folder is missing in the Strapi folder structure!

This even implies if anyone needs to change the logo in the admin panel and also in the login screen, the documentation tells to add a custom image in this folder :
./admin/src/assets/images/logo-strapi.png
But in actual the admin folder is missing in the Strapi folder structure!

Additional context

But there's a .cache folder and inside that folder there is an admin folder!
So, it would be really helpful if this specified sections docs is updated!

Describe the bug
I’m following the unit testing guide and I hit an error because I didn’t have sqlite3 installed. No error was printed at the command line and I had to console.log from inside the framework to see what was wrong.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Follow the unit testing guide. Add a database.json for the test env that references the sqlite client.
2. Do not install the npm module sqlite3
3. Copy in the test helper and the app test outlined in the guide.
4. yarn run test

Expected behavior
These lines in the framework are executing, thus an error should be printed:

        strapi.log.error('The client `' + connection.settings.client + '` is not installed.');
        strapi.log.error(
          'You can install it with `$ npm install ' + connection.settings.client + ' --save`.'
        );

Actual behavior
A callstack referencing knex.js is printed but the log messages are not visible.

Code snippets
The line in strapi code that I expect an error from: https://github.com/strapi/strapi/blob/master/packages/strapi-connector-bookshelf/lib/knex.js#L79.

System

• Node.js version: v12.8.1
• NPM version: yarn 1.22.4
• Strapi version: 3.0.5
• Database: sqlite
• Operating system: Debian linux (running in docker desktop on macOS)

Additional context
I don't know if jest is swallowing the error or if strapi.log.error isn't emitting it. I followed the guide so I'd expect it to work. Also the guide should probably mention installing sqlite3. Thanks!

Summary

I use Strapi for building API for my small app. In a model, I have the following entities:

Article, Article Translation, Tag, Tag translation. One Article has Many Article Translations. Each Article Translation has Many Tags. Each Tag has Many Tags translations.

My problem is that when I make a GET-request to Article, I don't receive Tags translations. I suppose they are too deep for Strapi. If I just make a GET-request to Tag or to Tag Translation, the response is correct.

How can I increase the depth of relations responses?

Why is it needed?

Because this way it will be clear how to use Strapi fully with deep requests inside.
