[WMR]: Stylesheets not clearing between pages being prerendered

[rschristian]

@sastan: do you happen to remember the context of this comment?

use-twind-with/packages/wmr/prerender.ts

Lines 22 to 24 in d40071a

	// Ensure to start a new async scope
	return (data) =>
	Promise.resolve().then(async () => {

Running into an issue at the moment where previous styles aren't cleared from the stylesheet, and for whatever reason, this seems to be the culprit.

I've made a reproduction: https://github.com/rschristian/twind-uncleared-sheet-bug

This is just the WMR Example brought up to date and configured to also prerender a 'Not Found' page.

Once you build (npm run build), if you look at the built file (dist/404/index.html) you'll see that Twind has generated a rule for .bg-purple-400, even though it doesn't exist on any content in the page. It does, however, exist in /.

I'm not really sure what you're looking to do with that Promise.resolve().then(...). Replacing that and returning a plain async function seems to fix the issue.

// Ensure to start a new async scope
-return (data) =>
-    Promise.resolve().then(async () => {
+return async (data) => {
        await sheet.reset()
        let { html, ...rest } = await prerender(render(data), options)
        return { ...rest, html: getStyleTag(sheet) + html }
-})
+}
}

If it works great! I remember we had some problems with tracking of the current async scopes.

If it works with an async function now, we should change it.

Yep, this seems to be the culprit (I use my own use-twind-with implementation but at its core I use the same logic, so I was able to test the await bugfix).

[danielweck]

...also note that if a unit-test was to be written for this, Twind's config.preflight would need to be set to false (or maybe undefined or null ... I haven't tried all possible "falsy" values) in order to assert sheet.target.length === 0 (well, I use (Array.isArray(sheet) ? sheet : sheet.target).length but I can't remember exactly why! :)

UPDATE: NO!
See #25 (comment)

To Ryan's original point: -I removed- the Promise.resolve().then(async () => {}) wrapper in my prerender code, and everything seems to works fine (well, apart from the Node v16 random segfault ... but that's a completely separate problem preactjs/wmr#893 (comment) )

I think you skipped looking over the blame that resulted in that line. Without it, pages that contain shared styles would end up missing it. Say /foo and /bar had text-white: Without #19, /bar would be missing that rule.

OH! I retract this comment, sorry. This totally yields empty stylesheet in my tests. I am keeping the Promise.resolve() wrapper as this has been working great in my setup which is very similar to use-twind-with/wmr (I am also preserving the removal of await for sheet.reset() which has always worked fine at my end, I never experienced this issue #19 )
