Dynamically Generate Gatsby v1 Blog Posts by Path

The default export is missign on the templates/blog-post.js in the soruce code. I tried to open an issue on the repo but it's disabled.

@Luis it seems to be here https://github.com/eggheadio-projects/gatsby-demo-blog-code/blob/master/src/templates/blog-post.js#L55

Just a note, but the blog posts don't display in date order - which should probably be a primary concern of a blog..

@Justin Handley - If the posts are out of order, try passing the sort option to the allMarkdownRemark part of the GraphQL query like this:

    allMarkdownRemark(
      sort: { fields: [frontmatter___date], order: DESC }
    ) {
      edges { ...etc

Thanks - got it... If you sort DESC in index (showing newest first) you also have to do a sort in gatsby-node.js as ASC which will ensure that previous and next links also work correctly.

Glad you got it going! We'll get a note added to the repo later today.

this is one of the hardest video material that I've ever seen. Why do you need to play your video faster than it is. Plus, you really don't need to cut out clips. just show it as it is without over editing.

It seems it's better to try Gatsby official tutorial.

yes, HK totally agree with you, however, I just followed the getting started in gatsbyjs.org and then move to this videos, nevertheless, I am having issues trying to pass path as argument to a graphql query, reading the doc from gatsby, I needed to pass the path in context in createPage, with all due respect, but paying a pro account for this, it is not worthy,

Hi! I faced the same problem with the path. I had to put an absolute path in the gatsby-config.js to start the server. The path: ${__dirname}/src didn't work for me.

Then I got stuck with the following error message in lesson 5:

⠂ createPagesYour site's "gatsby-node.js" must set the page path when creating a page

{ path: null, component: '</my absolue path/my-blog/>'}

Thanks!
