🚀 Hive dApps Dev Update: Distriator Cash-Backs Go Lightning Fast ⚡🎉

in HiveDevs14 days ago

Hello Hive Community Members,

Hope you all had amazing weekends 🍻. Sorry to break it to you—yes, it's MONDAY again. Dang it! I worked the whole weekend (don’t ask me how that went 😅). Anyway, let’s not debate weekends vs weekdays—let’s talk about techy stuff. Today’s update is all about Distriator.

It's Monday again


💰 Distriator Cash-Back Upgrade Story

  • Backend changes applied for instant cash-backs 🚀
  • No front-end changes needed—only backend business logic touched 🤓
  • Published a business review, tried claiming… BAM! Error on my phone screen 😑
  • Tried again, failed again. BUT… surprise 🤯—cash-back still arrived in wallet!

Curiosity got me—so ditched the phone, ran it locally & debugged with browser 🕵️‍♂️.

run locally, debug in browser

Boom. API was throwing errors despite actually completing processes. SSH to the server, checked logs, and yup—spotted mysterious error messages 😅.

let's take a look at the server logs

Tracked log lines above the error. Backend did everything right: sent cash-backs ✔️, triggered Discord webhooks ✔️, added reviews ✔️. But failed at the LAST STEP—updating cashback status.

So, this line throws error

Root cause found 🐛: In backend repo function, I mixed query part into the update block. Classic dev moment. Fixed it ✅.

Found the root cause
Bug fix in backend code

Launched frontend + backend locally, pointed them to localhost—time for new test 🧪. BUT—daily cashback limit = 2 per user. Bummer. Switched test accounts 😅.

Result? 🎉 Perfect working claim with BIG Congratulations (maybe too many TADA-popups) 😂.

Ahaa Finally it worked

Took 12 seconds ⏰ though. Dear starkerz 🤞 please don’t scream at me for that.

But yes, it did take 12 seconds though


🐞 Bugs Squashed

While testing, I also spotted some sneaky UI bugs 🎭 caused by backend sending MongoDB’s new attributes. Frontend just displayed defaults 🤦.

Bug in UI with invoice-id and amount

But hey, patched backend + frontend both 👨‍💻👩‍💻. Retested locally—booooom 💥 bugs gone! Deployed to server. Mission accomplished.

Fixed UI bugs
