The application can now be built, tailwind is built, AND templ
components are generated! Which means, we can no longer push the
tailwind generated CSS file OR the templ generated go files!
Plus, this is the first step towards deployment and CI/CD!
This includes backend updates as well as frontend changes! The backend
also includes a new repository to get a list of jobs via their IDs,
which does respect order!
The list displays for users that are logged in and a small message when
the user is not logged in. The last piece is the recipe of the week
segment, which can be as simple as a DB cron-job. But that will require
stored procedures. Need to learn those next.
Though I want to deploy the application soon, so I need to begin working
on that.
This basically marks the favorites page completed. Updating the recipe
repository to allow the search function to accept a userId and favorites
flag. This flag will toggle a "favorites only" search. Which can be used
to replicate the same functionality from the search page in the
favorites page. This later can serve as a baseline for updating to also
work for activity search.
I am starting to think an ORM is a good idea...I heard Gorm is good, but
for now, there is a bit too much tech debt.
This means we need to pass the user id into the various methods that
call it. But, since it is a pointer, we can use nil if we don't have a
user to check with (this is noted in the service).
The frontend is half wired up, just need to update the button. I also
want to update the recipe methods to return the favorite status. This
will follow very similar to the way I updated the tags. Another method
which can be called to attach the favorite state.
The make button is pretty much done, just need to finish up by
rate limiting it. That will take place in the engagement repository.
Sharing works as well, just a UI change, there is no backend yet, maybe
there should be an engagement type for sharing recipes. But not totally
sure.
The viewing is also in a semi-working state. It does not create requests
for users that aren't signed in, which needs to come. With that update
there is a need to update HOW the requests come in, we don't need it
every time we load the page. Maybe just when we click to it, from
somewhere else?
Finally, the favoriting does not totally work. The entry into the
engagement table is complete, but the actual favorites table, favorite
creation, button toggling AND button rendering is not implemented yet.
The database requirements have been added, as well as the service/repo
architecture. A few small functions have been created, but the system is
not complete by any means. More work is required to mark this task
complete.
The other sections not working yet were marked as under construction.
There still needs to be a page for "see all..." for the recipes, but
that will be a task for another time.
The profile list will now properly display the users recipes! The
favorites list does not exist yet, since there is no backend support for
favoriting/saving recipes. So the list displays the same content as the
user recipe list. Same goes for the activity list, not yet implemented.
Needs a backend wire job, but it looks pretty good. I can't really test
this page on a real mobile device either, since it requires the user to
be logged in and the testing doesn't work with google.
This is part of the step towards finishing the creation wizard, all that
is left is the image. However, that is a bigger problem since it
requires a file store and file server. But for now, tags are implemented
and working!
This loads whenever a page that does not exist is loaded. I would also
like to add some "coming soon" dialog to the few pages that don't exist
yet. Before deploying to the server.
This is a HUGE upgrade and can mark the searching nearly complete! Other
than the scrolling and some other smaller UI things. The search appears
to be working.
However, this only occurs when the page is loaded WITH filters. If
filters are not found in the cookies, such as when a blank page is
loaded, then a search will only execute on submit.
The search is nearly complete for the initial implementation. Just need
to figure out what to do with the text search provided, make any
required UI changes, and eventual implement pagination via a "load more"
button.
This means that we can use the cookie data to load the filters when the
search page loads. The final step is making sure the search is complete
and the simple redirection. Which will come in the next commit!
Missing some context storage and better passing of data to allow
between the home page to the search page. Need a way to store the search
results in state so they can be retrieved when the page is reloaded,
etc.
Furthermore, not sure how we are going to handle the searching. Maybe a
full-text search index? For now, it has been ignored, but the filters
seem to be working properly.
The route will now display real, live data from the DB! Errors are not
handled very well, just returned as JSON for now. Need to implement an
error page for states when errors occur.
This commit also includes lots of documentation for the various
service/repository methods. I am trying to not let docs fall through the
cracks, but I am not perfect lol.
Recipe creation is complete! Some minor issues include the
"eager-validation." It's better than nothing, but a bit harsh. Also, the
redirection and linking to a view page would be nice.
Furthermore, tags and images are not implemented yet. Will need that in
the future!
