Oops, we hit our Sentry transaction limit after 3 days!
This is in part because we selected a 100% sample rate to start, but also because our app has a lot of client-side navs that don't represent real navigation, and are just to update the state in the URL.
I'm not using most of Sentry's performance tracing features, though! I don't have logging that helps us understand once the page is really done, and I'm only really able to use Web Vitals right now - which only applies to first-time pageload events, anyway. So, that's now all we track!
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 😅
When building the code to await auth before sending _any_ GraphQL queries, I didn't realize that auth might be kinda slow. So, I've added a hack to let me mark queries with no user-specific data to skip auth, and applied that to the main queries on the homepage.
I think this is a hint that we might want to change our strategy - e.g. to flip it to hackily mark that auth _is_ required, or to create wrappers or option-builder helpers for logged-in queries, etc.
I also notice that SSR would have resolved this particular case...
This UI generally loads very fast, thanks to the CDN cache, so the flash of skeleton content is more distracting than anything else! We still show it quickly after 300ms, but good network connections should reliably get it loaded before then.
Our host, Vercel, doesn't keep old build files on its CDN after a deploy for very long. This means that, after a deploy that changes a page's bundle, existing sessions that attempt to navigate to it for the first time will fail on the dynamic `import`, because the filename hash has changed.
The best fix I'm aware of for this is to just, reload the page when this happens!
To test this, I did the following:
1. Use `yarn build` to build a prod copy of the site.
2. Use `serve -s build` to start serving it on its own port. (API endpoints won't work, and that's okay!)
3. Don't touch the open copy of the site yet.
4. Make a change to `PrivacyPolicyPage.js`, and `yarn build` again. This simulates a deploy under similar circumstances.
5. Open the Console, tick the "Persist Logs" option, and try to navigate to Privacy Policy. Observe that it logs a ChunkLoadError in the console, and smoothly reloads the page to show you the updated Privacy Policy page.
6. Undo your change 😅
Previously, when you navigated directly to an outfit by typing the URL into the browser or following an external link, the name would stay as "Untitled outfit", even after the outfit loaded.
This was because, when you render an `Editable` Chakra component with `value={undefined}`, it permanently enters "uncontrolled" mode, and providing a value later doesn't change that.
But tbh passing `undefined` down from outfit state wasn't my intention! But yeah, turns out the `?.` operator returns `undefined` rather than `null`, which I guess makes sense!
So, I've fixed this on both ends. I'm now passing more `null`s down via outfit state, because I think that's a more expected value in general.
But also, for the `Editable`, I'm making a point of passing in an empty string as `value`, so that this component will be resilient to upstream changes in the future. (It's pretty brittle to _depend_ on the difference between `null` and `undefined`, as we saw here 😅)
Previously, when you clicked on a saved outfit from Your Outfits, the back button would take you back to the homepage, which was confusing for scanning through stuff! Now, it goes back to Your Outfits if it's yours.
I'm not suuure this is the behavior we want? But it seems intuitive enough!
Previously, if you navigated to /outfits/new without a species or color in the query string, we'd show a blank outfit page, with the species/color picker hidden. Now, we default to a Blue Acara instead!
We don't do anything to handle _invalid_ species/color IDs, but I don't super mind that, because in practice that would require some call site to malform the URL, and I don't super expect that.
This resolves more of the _cause_ of Sentry issue IMPRESS-2020-8, but I'm still wondering how a user got to the URL `/outfits/new?[object+Object]=&objects[]=35185&objects[]=67084`. I'm wondering if the pet loader on the homepage has a bug in Safari? I feel like I heard something like that from the feedback form, too...
If the species/color of the current outfit aren't available yet (e.g. a saved outfit is still loading in), hide the picker altogether. This is because the picker can't handle change events during that time, and it's easier to just hide all this than to add special case handlers like disabled states! (And, while placeholders are often helpful, I'm not sure the placeholder dropdowns are any better than empty space in this case.)
This can also happen when the user loads a page without a species/color ready, like just going straight to `/outfits/new`. I think I might want to add a handler for that, though.
Resolves the direct cause of Sentry issue IMPRESS-2020-8, though I'm not sure how the user got to the URL `/outfits/new?[object+Object]=&objects[]=35185&objects[]=67084` in the first place...
Two fixes in here, for when image downloads fail!
1) Actually catch the error, and show UI feedback
2) Throw it as an actual exception, so the console message will have a stack trace
Additionally, debugging this was a bit trickier than normal, because I didn't fully understand that the image `onerror` argument is an error _event_, not an Error object. So, Sentry captured the uncaught promise rejection, but it didn't have trace information, because it wasn't an Error. Whereas now, if I forget to catch `loadImage` calls in the future, we'll get a real trace! both in the console for debugging, and in Sentry if it makes it to prod :)
I haven't seen anything come in from prod yet, and it's hard to trigger one, maybe because the integration is React-specific? Or maybe it's... not working :p
I can send errors from dev! But just haven't _seeeen_ a prod error come in yet.
Maybe we're just squeaky clean tho :3
My main reason for adding this now is that I'm getting some scattered reports of things not displaying correctly, and I want to start gathering some browser data on that...
I recently confirmed that animations work on iOS (at least one did!), which was going to be my guess of what was breaking...
I took out virtualization for now too, I wanna see how this non-Chakra UI version, with fewer nodes and no tooltips etc, performs on large lists in production.
Huh, I'm not sure why SVGs ever didn't have `crossOrigin: "anonymous"`? The old commit isn't really super helpful for understanding that. Maybe I just didn't notice the problem in that case?
Well, whatever. Let's see if this breaks something else! (I'm also wondering if we should just like, _always_ ask for things with crossOrigin set?)
Oops, if you try to show PosePicker before we have a species/color ready, it sends a bad GraphQL request. No visible user impact, just an unnecessary network call and an error in the console! This happens when you're loading an outfit by ID.
Here, we hide PosePicker if there's no species/color ready yet. This stops the extra request from firing!
When loading an outfit in the wardrobe page, there was an awkward state where the outfit preview loading spinner would vanish and then reappear.
This was because `useOutfitState` briefly reported `loading: false`, then fixed itself after almost immediately—but our OutfitPreview component has a delay before re-showing the spinner.
In this change, we smooth out the loading state, by enabling the second GQL request to start immediately once the first request is done, instead of waiting on a callback to finish.
Oops, when refactoring and adding alt text, I didn't realize the padding for the text would affect the images too! And I forgot to add `overflow: hidden` to round the image's corners. Fixed!
To help the load time for outfits feel shorter, we now reuse the outfit thumbnail from the Your Outfits page as a placeholder!
This doesn't add any overhead when the thumbnail data _isn't_ in your session cache, e.g. if you navigate to the outfit directly. But if we have the thumbnail on hand already, we just show it, easy peasy!
Oops, when switching to @emotion/react, it turns out they no longer support that cute hack I was doing to append suffixes to class names!
Here, I change strategy and let `CSSTransition` apply the plain `exit` and `exit-active` classes to its children, and apply Emotion styles to the child to check for _also_ having those classes.
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.
Oh right, we can't cache objects well when they're missing their ID!
Before this change, selecting an outfit then navigating back would require the outfits to reload. Now, they stay!
That'll still show up when the outfit is still loading, but this lets us use the Apollo cache to show the name instantly if you're clicking through a link from Your Outfits
Still a pretty limited early version, no saving _back_ to the server. But you can click from the Your Outfits page and see the outfit for real! :3 We have a WIPCallout explaining the basics.
