Comments (just add water)

A self-contained comments system Val. Just fork this val and you have a complete (but extremely minimal) comment system!

Call on the front-end using:

const MY_FORKED_VAL_URL = "https://vez-comments.web.val.run";

const getComments = async () => {
  const response = await fetch(MY_FORKED_VAL_URL);
  const json = await response.json();
  return json;
};

const addComment = async (str) => {
  try {
    const response = await fetch(MY_FORKED_VAL_URL, {
      method: "POST",
      body: JSON.stringify(str),
    });

    if (response.status >= 400 && response.status < 600) {
      /* error */
      return false;
    } else {
      /* success */
      return true;
    }
  } catch (e) {
    /* error */
    return false;
  }
};

Here's an example of a blog post where I used the val for the comment system: https://vezwork.github.io/polylab/dist/demo/bidirectionalParse/. Check out "view source"!
