Load Contexthub on conditional basis

[yashaswidotiya]

Hi All,

I want to load custom contexthub store on basis of some condition and for that, I have used apply method while registering the storeCandidate. The issue here is that I am getting "no suitable store Implementation found for ...." if condition fails. 

Is there any way that I can prevent these error from coming ?

Sample Code:- 

contextHub.Utils.storeCandidates.registerStoreCandidate(
"VariableName",
"contexthub.storeName",
0,

function(){return false};
);

Error message -- No suitable store implementation found for type: contexthub.storeName

@yashaswidotiya,

Sure, you can do this with a JavaScript condition block before you run the "registering the store candidate".

   function registerStoreCandidate() {
      if (canRegisterStoreCandidate()) {
        contextHub.Utils.storeCandidates.registerStoreCandidate(
        "VariableName",
        contexthub.storeName,
        0)
      }
   }

   function canRegisterStoreCandidate(){
     // ...someLogicReturnsBoolean;
     // example: returns true if window.contexthub && window.contexthub.storeName both are not empty or undefined.
     return window.contexthub && window.contexthub.storeName;
   };

Thank you for answer.I tried above solution but still I am getting console error.

Try this:

function createSimplePersistedStore() {
  if (!window.ContextHub) return;
  let myStoreCandidate = function(){};
  ContextHub.Utils.inheritance.inherit(myStoreCandidate,ContextHub.Store.PersistedStore);
  if (myStoreCandidate != undefined || myStoreCandidate != null) {
       ContextHub.Utils.storeCandidates.registerStoreCandidate(myStoreCandidate,
       'contexthub.mystorecandiate', 0);
   }
}

I have total 5 custom stores out of which 4 should be loaded on all pages while 1 should load only on some specific pages. If I use above solution, my store does not get loaded but I am adding an additional console error as my store is not registered but it is present in conf directory and it is in enabled state. So, if possible, is there a way to make property changes through code where I can disable store based on some logic. Java code will also work.
