Registering static methods are remote methods in Loopback 2.0

October 25, 2014April 12, 2015 ~ Abou Kone ~ Leave a comment

Loopback 2.0 and getting:

/node_modules/loopback-connector-mongodb/node_modules/mongodb/lib/mongodb/connection/base.js:246
throw message;
^
TypeError: Cannot call method ‘apply’ of undefined
at SharedMethod.invoke /node_modules/loopback/node_modules/strong-remoting/lib/shared-method.js:213:17)

Reason is more than likely that you have defined a static method on your model that does not match the string used to register the static method as a remote method as outline here.

What’s a full-stack developer?

April 19, 2014 ~ Abou Kone ~ Leave a comment

Full-stack development is about exposing yourself to a broad range of ideas. This is a theme we’ll see repeatedly in the coming years. Being a full-stack developer isn’t about jumping immediately from working on the Hadoop cluster to the Java middleware to the JavaScript that runs in the browser. Specialization exists for a reason. But developers who understand the whole stack are going to build better applications. A back-end developer will understand what the front-end developers are doing, and be able to work with them so the application doesn’t generate requests that drive the database nuts. A front-end developer who understands design will be able to help the designers build applications that are both beautiful, and can run efficiently on any platform.
