What is class=“mb-0” in Bootstrap 4?

Source: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41574776/what-is-class-mb-0-in-bootstrap-4

Bootstrap has a wide range of responsive margin and padding utility classes. They work for all breakpoints:

xs (<=576px), sm (>=576px), md (>=768px), lg (>=992px) or xl (>=1200px))

The classes are used in the format:

{property}{sides}-{size} for xs & {property}{sides}-{breakpoint}-{size} for sm, md, lg, and xl.

m - sets margin

p - sets padding

---

t - sets margin-top or padding-top

b - sets margin-bottom or padding-bottom

l - sets margin-left or padding-left

r - sets margin-right or padding-right

x - sets both padding-left and padding-right or margin-left and margin-right

y - sets both padding-top and padding-bottom or margin-top and margin-bottom

blank - sets a margin or padding on all 4 sides of the element

---

0 - sets margin or padding to 0

1 - sets margin or padding to .25rem (4px if font-size is 16px)

2 - sets margin or padding to .5rem (8px if font-size is 16px)

3 - sets margin or padding to 1rem (16px if font-size is 16px)

4 - sets margin or padding to 1.5rem (24px if font-size is 16px)

5 - sets margin or padding to 3rem (48px if font-size is 16px)

HTML select option with EJS

Source: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34878180/html-select-option-with-ejs

You can put it in a loop based on the option values.

<select id="volume">

<%
var options = [ "1", "5", "10", "50", "75", "100" ];
for ( var i = 0; i < options.length; i++ )
{
    var selected = ( config[0].volume == i ) ? "selected" : "";
    %><option value="<%=options[ i ] %>" <%=selected %>><%=i %></option><%
}
%>
</select>

How do I redirect in expressjs while passing some context?

Source: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19035373/how-do-i-redirect-in-expressjs-while-passing-some-context

There are a few ways of passing data around to different routes. The most correct answer is, of course, query strings. You'll need to ensure that the values are properly encodeURIComponent and decodeURIComponent.

app.get('/category', function(req, res) {
  var string = encodeURIComponent('something that would break');
  res.redirect('/?valid=' + string);
});

You can snag that in your other route by getting the parameters sent by using req.query.

app.get('/', function(req, res) {
  var passedVariable = req.query.valid;
  // Do something with variable
});

For more dynamic way you can use the url core module to generate the query string for you:

const url = require('url');    
app.get('/category', function(req, res) {
    res.redirect(url.format({
       pathname:"/",
       query: {
          "a": 1,
          "b": 2,
          "valid":"your string here"
        }
     }));
 });

So if you want to redirect all req query string variables you can simply do

res.redirect(url.format({
       pathname:"/",
       query:req.query,
     });
 });

And if you are using Node >= 7.x you can also use the querystring core module

const querystring = require('querystring');    
app.get('/category', function(req, res) {
      const query = querystring.stringify({
          "a": 1,
          "b": 2,
          "valid":"your string here"
      });
      res.redirect('/?' + query);
 });

Another way of doing it is by setting something up in the session. You can read how to set it up here, but to set and access variables is something like this:

app.get('/category', function(req, res) {
  req.session.valid = true;
  res.redirect('/');
});

And later on after the redirect...

app.get('/', function(req, res) {
  var passedVariable = req.session.valid;
  req.session.valid = null; // resets session variable
  // Do something
});

There is also the option of using an old feature of Express, req.flash. Doing so in newer versions of Express will require you to use another library. Essentially it allows you to set up variables that will show up and reset the next time you go to a page. It's handy for showing errors to users, but again it's been removed by default. EDIT: Found a library that adds this functionality.

Hopefully that will give you a general idea how to pass information around in an Express application.
