After update to 8.0.0 the following happens:

  • starting vscode
  • dashboard (set to autostart) loads posts and fills previews
  • clicking on media results in long loading, after a while media loads
  • clicking snippets and data loads the tabs
  • clicking taxonomy flashes something (could be my imagination) and then ends up being an empty editor. tab still says FrontMatter Dashboard but within everything is empty

Closing opening VSCode results in the same. Reboot the same. No error message.

The output console shows this:

The last four pairs of messages pop up AFTER the window goes empty. "sendTelemetry" is the last message after I clicked the taxonomy tab.

My repo, if you want to test it out: github.com/davidsneighbour/kollitsch.dev

Clone, run npm install and then npm run build:frontmatter to build the config file.

Seems to be configuration related. The following entry should be removed:

"frontMatter.taxonomy.tags": [
    {
      "id": "tags",
      "options": [
        "Tag 1",
        "Tag 2",
        "Tag 3"
      ]
    }
  ],

You also have the following entry:

"frontMatter.taxonomy.customTaxonomy": [
    {
      "id": "tags",
      "options": [
        "Option 1",
        "Option 2",
        "Option 3"
      ]
    }
  ]

Might be better to give the ID another name for now. tags and categories are predefined taxonomy fields by Front Matter. A good thing to be enhanced is that internally all custom taxonomy IDs will get a prefix to avoid any conflicts.

PS: accidentally pressed tab+enter, that is why I closed the issue.

Removing both config options did the trick. I'll dig into the documentation for taxonomies. And check for notifications in there next time, the schema did complain about some things already, so that should have been an indicator for me.

The wireit process seems interesting. Might need to see what it actually does. Also going to create a new issue for optimizing the dashboard.

https://github.com/google/wireit - it looks chaotic because I just added it and duplicated the tasks, but in general you can end up using one single build command and it creates/runs the tasks based on dependencies. It's in its infancy, but already quite useful :)

Going to put it on my list of tools to check out. Can use it to replace npm-run-all it seems.
