Unable to view a collection
Hi. I've created a collection called PortfolioItems.ts in the collections folder and added it to the Payload config file. I've restarted the Payload server. It's not displaying in the Payload admin page? What am I doing wrong?
Repo:
https://github.com/taunhealy/PayloadHotel2
PortfolioItems collection is registered in the MongoDB database
It's not displaying in Payload admin panel
are the other types showing in the admin panel? @Taun
Pages, Media and User
are you running the correct project? right port and db creds? cause you dont have a
Userdeclared in this ^ config
Does this look right?
MONGO_URL=mongodb+srv://taunhealy:<password>@cluster0.zpesqyk.mongodb.net/?retryWrites=true&w=majority
With my password inserted
The cluster on Mongo contains the PortfolioItems
With no query items yet as I haven't submitted from Payload
When i nav to localhost:3000 it used to return 404 error message, now it returns errror:
"missing required error components, refreshing..."
Maybe that is related
Did you configure your localhosts for payload and next properly in the .env?
As per the instructions to copy the .env.example
I think I renamed the env.example to env.
Is this fine? NEXT_PUBLIC_SERVER_URL=
http://localhost:3000PAYLOAD_PUBLIC_SERVER_URL=
http://localhost:3000.env *
PORT=3000 and my secret key is there
import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'; import dotenv from 'dotenv'; import Page from './collections/Page'; import Media from './collections/Media'; import PortfolioItems from './collections/PortfolioItems'; dotenv.config(); export default buildConfig({ serverURL: process.env.PAYLOAD_PUBLIC_SERVER_URL, collections: [ Page, Media, PortfolioItems, ], });put them on different ports
like next on 3001 and try again
as well as PORT:3001?
Putting those 3 on 3001 returned no errors wihtin VScode, though browser returned "This site can’t be reachedlocalhost refused to connect."
oh actually i just read the original docs better, whats your output from
yarn dev?

i would actually recommend yarn, there are subtle differences in peer dependency resolutions where npm struggles
that said run a
yarn installagain see if it changes this output, although none of it is an error

Also might be worth trying to make a GET request to
/api/accessto see if the collection shows up there
https://payloadcms.com/docs/authentication/operationsThanks, I'll try that
3001 isn't working
nah reverse the port to the initial, cause i think the setup in this case is meant to be a little different with the monorepo
though I never tried running payload in a monorepo myself so idk of the caveats yet
It's back to returning this error. Strange because the first time i tried Payload it worked locally. I don't remember change those server URLs. What should they be?
I'm going to start a fresh project
I recommend you try a separate approach tbh, it'll make hosting easier for you as well
https://github.com/payloadcms/website
https://github.com/payloadcms/website-cmsSorta ^ complex templates but maybe it'll help you structure your codebase better from the start
Thanks, are these for Nextjs?
Is this the right repo for a Nextjs project or is it adding server complexity?
https://github.com/payloadcms/nextjs-custom-serverAfter setting up a new project it's not displaying the PortfolioItems collection.
I've gettting this error in the terminal:
PS C:\git\2160\PayloadHotel2> yarn dev yarn run v1.22.19 $ ts-node server.ts [11:09:00] INFO (payload): Connected to Mongo server successfully!

nichesetup
I'd do them separately and just communicate between them via the APIs
Ok cool, so I can use this repo?
https://github.com/payloadcms/website-cmsYeah even if just for an example, but it's quite fully featured and has a strict adherence to good coding standards
following the default getting started steps is also a good option
https://payloadcms.com/docs/getting-started/installationyou can choose a starter like todo or blog
but it will be more bare than the example above ^
Thanks for the help. Later today I'll create a Next app and then install Payload via
npm install --save --legacy-peer-deps payloadyarn*
I haven't resolved the issue yet. I'm curious as to what the problem is if anyone has experienced it?
Resolved now - I created a fresh project, it returned some strange error missing Next trace or something, I restarted vscode and the server and it's working fine.
