Error adding fauna addon

ibirrer · November 20, 2021, 12:59pm

I am getting the following error on the fauna website when trying to add the faunadb addon with netlify addons:auth fauna:

Import Netlify Database: It seems something wrong happened. Please try again.

I use an exising faunadb account (using email/password).

Thanks for looking into it.

Hi @ibirrer,

The add-on is nor managed by Netlify and thus, we cannot comment on what’s happening. Could you post this to Fauna Support and confirm with them?

Additionally, you probably don’t need the add-on and it’s easy to integrate FaunaDB in a Netlify website. Check this for example:

github.com

Hrishikesh-K/ThreadTalk.JS/blob/main/src/functions/intermediate/setupComments.js

// Require the Node Modules
const faunaDB = require('faunadb')

// Initialize FaunaDB with the key from environment variables
const commentsDB = new faunaDB.Client({
  secret: process.env.FAUNADB
})

// Set showdown config
const showdownConfig = {
  emoji: true,
  tables: true,
  underline: true,
  noHeaderId: true,
  encodeEmails: true,
  strikethrough: true,
  simpleLineBreaks: true,
  parseImgDimensions: true,
  simplifiedAutoLink: true,
  openLinksInNewWindow: true,

Hi @hrishikesh

Thanks for your response. It actually works fine without the fauna add-on. Just wanted to point out that I wasn’t abe to run the command described at Integrations overview | Netlify Docs successfully.
