Hello , To experiment with the wonderful brand new dynamic-import-plugin I decided to try implementing this new feature on my generator for 164K first names of people , which you can find here .
The source of the names can be found here : https://github.com/Debdut/names.io
My goal here was to find a "good general solution" with the dynamic-import-plugin that I can implement for more important generators with larger datasets in the future.
The dynamic-import-plugin great improvement ; I can get access to the full list of names without long loading times. But I also have some new problems.
Question 1 (main issue)
I have this issue where the the imported values will occasionally read as 'undefined' when I import stuff. You can see it in the image above.
Here is what the sub-generator fusion-t2i-names-12 looks like :
What are the recommendations to solving this?
EDIT: Many names in this dataset contain non-standard letters , e.g different from A-Z. I am starting to suspect that might be the issue. In which case , should I just put [String("...")] over every name with non-standard letters or is there a better way?
Question 2 (secondary)
TLDR : "Am I coding this correctly?"
When I request 100 values at once from a loaded generator I initially get the "freeze" mentioned in the Dynamic Import Plugin Guide.
I'd like for an entire 10K dataset to be loaded when the generator opens . How do I do this?
Reading the code , my interpretation is that I am already doing this.
But it feels like I'm missing something here since I still get a significant "freeze" when requesting items after startup, hence the question.
Question 3 (non-essential)
In the fusion-t2i-names-12 I have this textfields where a user can press a button and get some some values for the dataset.
It would be nice to be able to display these values fusion-t2i-names-12 but I have no idea how to do this since the "_data" is placed in the $output field.
I don't want to copy paste _data as that would mean my 10K sub-set of words is now a 20K subset of words.
I assume that would impact the "main generator" if I did this and cause even more loading times.
But I'm not sure. I'm fine with copy-pasting as long as it won't affect the main generator. What should I do here?
Thanks for the help! I followed your advice things work fine now. https://perchance.org/fusion-t2i-names.
The reason why I wrote [String("...")] earlier was as an extra precaution , not due to any import issues. I've removed them in this version.
The
dynamic-import-plugin
is a really good plugin :)!
