Oops, we weren't doing a good job encapsulating the different conditions in item search. The `OR` in the NC condition was causing a precedence problem!
Now, we wrap all the conditions in parens at the interpolation site, to make it really clear that they all need to be made safe like that!
Now, there's not a bunch of "??????" entries in NC search, oops 😅
I'm gonna extend `itemSearch` to also look up the total number of results, and the fragmentation between `itemSearch` and `itemSearchToFit` finally caught up with me :p
I've deprecated `itemSearchToFit`, and moved the fit parameters into a new optional `fitsPet` parameter for `itemSearch`.
I'm going to keep `itemSearchToFit` around for now, because old JS builds still use it, and I'd like to avoid disrupting folks. But I'm not going to add the new total results field to the results object it returns, and that's gonna be okay!
Oops, the new `canonicalAppearance` arguments couldn't handle being omitted rather than being null, due to a low-level SQL call site that cares about the difference.
This meant that loading an item page in an old tab, with an old copy of our JS, could cause a crash.
Now, the backend will be okay with queries from old pages, and respond the same as before!
This isn't a huge deal, because once everyone is on the new JS we won't send queries without this parameter anyway… but I like my optional arguments to actually BE optional, without surprises lurking >.>
Ok cool, so apparently another win we get from using `ts-node` is that I can finally easily use some non-native-Node features like ES module import syntax, for consistency with what I'm doing in the main app source! That was getting on my nerves tbh. Ooh I bet I can finally use `?.` too, I've had to rewrite that a bunch…
Woo, it's looking pretty good, I think!
I didn't bother with pagination yet, since I feel like that'll be a bit of a design and eng lift unto itself... but I figured people would appreciate the ability to look up individual items, even if the rest isn't ready yet 😅
Oops, the GROUP_CONCAT string was getting cut off! This caused an error trying to look up the name of an item ID that didn't exist, because the ID got truncated partway through.
This query was very slow! I added an index, and now it's fast!
This code change doesn't actually affect anything, but the comment helps explain what happened, since the index isn't stored in code. (Todo: should I start defining some indexes in our setup files?)
yeah, I had unified Pet into Outfit, but now I think that was overly clever… 😅
Here, I define a new Pet type, and it has some of the fields of Outfit and the deprecated fields still.
I did this because I want petAppearance to work, for UC testing!
This updates the MySQL procedure to get the important special colors, but keeps the GQL behavior the same by only filtering to Blue. Just an incremental step before changing the behavior, to make sure I've gotten it right so far!
Snapshots significantly updated, but, from scanning it, I think that's expected changes from actual modeling progress. Hooray!
I'm using my first ever MySQL Store Procedure for clever cleverness in caching the modeling query!
I realized that checking for the latest contribution timestamp is a pretty reliable way of deciding when modeling data was last updated at all. If that timestamp hasn't changed, we can reuse the results!
I figured that, because query roundtrips are a bottleneck in this environment, I didn't want to make that query separately. So, I built a MySQL procedure to do the check on the database side!
Been bothered by this for a while!
My hope is that this isn't a notable marginal performance hit—we were already walking the table and doing string ops anyway, I can't imagine adding to that is actually that much of a marginal lift, when the main bottleneck was probably reads. And the perf should be identical for simple single-word queries anyway. But we'll see how it feels!
Previously, if you switched species/color such that one of your items was no longer compatible, we _would_ still apply its zone restrictions to the visible layer set.
In this change, we fix that server-side, since I think it makes the most sense for an empty appearance to be truly empty!
This is in preparation for hiding bio zone restrictions but showing item zone restrictions!
I also refactor the build-cached-data script substantially, to run GraphQL against the server instead of a custom query.
Previously, when changing a pet's color, we would refresh the items panel and send a new network request for the item appearances, even though they're all the same. This is because item appearance data is queried by species/color, for ease of specification.
But! Item appearances are //cached// by body ID. So, if this is a standard color, it's not hard to look in the cache for the standard color's body ID!
Now, most color changes are faster and don't flicker the item panel anymore. We do still refresh the panel and send the requests for color changes that _do_ matter though, like standard <-> mutant!
Previously, I was filtering out glitched appearances from the canonical ones.
But now, I'm thinking it's better to serve glitched ones than no data for a pose at all.
I'm inspired by the case of the Candy Acara, which has _only_ glitched appearances in our db, and I'd like to mark them for reference—but then the site would treat it as no data at all.
