"Fall Woodland Leaves Filter" is an example, it's part of the two-item
*pack* named "Fall Woodland Minitheus Petpet Foreground". The NC Mall
page for it will include the secondary items in `object_data`, but it's
not part of the storefront itself—and the only thing indicating that is
the `render` list.
Theoretically, we could use this to construct more data about like,
packs and stuff, automatically? But also, I don't want to backfill it
for everything historically, so like. Whatever.
See comment for details! I wonder if other items have been affected by
this in the past. I think probably what happened before was that we
successfully created this item, but failed to create the *translation*,
so when migrating over the Patchwork Staff all its translated fields
were empty? (That's what I found looking in the database today.)
But yeah, thankfully our crash logging at health.openneo.net gave me
the name of a pet someone was trying to model, and so I was able to
find the bug and fix it!
Now that we have such a convenient lil outfit viewer component we built
for the item page preview, it's easy peasy to drop it in here too! And
it's all nice and lightweight, since in this case it's basically just.
image tags, with some supporting enhancements.
Anyway, this page has no actual useful styles of its own yet. Gonna
make it look nice and such!
I'm experimenting with a Rainbow Pool ish UI, mainly as a support tool
for exploring and labeling poses—but one we can probably just show to
real users too!
Right now, I just use pet type images as a placeholder, and I polished
up some of the `pet_type_image` API. But we're probably gonna drop
these for a full outfit viewer, now that I think of it.
This is a transitional gem to help with upgrading from old versions of
Rails: it provides a deprecated feature that Rails removed.
I audited and I *think* we only used it in one place, and that this one
place doesn't even use any of its functionality for styling or
scripting? So, begone!
Oh sweet, I learned about a new CSS feature with good-enough support!
This lets you use CSS transitions for an element as it enters the page,
or becomes visible.
Firefox only has partial support for this feature rn, but its partial
support covers our case, I tested to make sure! (Specifically, it
doesn't handle transitioning from `display: none` yet, which isn't what
we're doing.)
Whew, quite a history here! I didn't _extensively_ audit for these, but
I scanned with pretty good searches and hit major pages and they didn't
crash, so. Good enough for me!
Right, yeah, we've been depending on an external CDN for a long time
for jQuery and the jQuery Template library, and I don't like that kind
of external dependency! Let's put it in with the rest of our libs.
It's only actually used in two JS files, so rather than doing a weird
global `$.ajaxSetup` call, let's just inline it into the small handful
of AJAX calls that actually care.
Uhh I guess when I half-removed a feature from the translations list (I
don't remember when?), it left two different dictionaries labeled
`neopets_page_import_tasks.new`, and the second one overwrote the
first. Oops! Yikes!
By removing these, the translations *above* them actually get to apply
to the page correctly. Before this change, the page just showed the
translation keys as placeholders, womp womp.
When I was trying to debug slow view code one time long long ago, I was
like "let's cache any part of the template that's static!"
And like. no that's silly, I don't trust that this speeds anything up,
but it _definitely_ adds complexity. Let's just not.
Just for consistency with the other features we're not using, we turn
off ActionCable when loading the app. I just removed
`config/cable.yml`, so I figure, let's not load a feature without the
config file it expects! (even though that didn't seem to bother it)
We're not using the ActionCable or ActiveStorage Rails features in this
app, so we can clear out these default config files. If we need them
later, it's not hard to re-find / re-generate them!
Our production data now contains basic hashes for all species/color
combinations, and it's easy enough for a dev copy of the site to get
them too by running `rails public_data:pull`. So, I think it's time to
retire this hardcoded set, and get one more file out of our codebase!
No pressing reason, I'm just doing upgrades today, and noticed a new
version is out, and scrolled the patch notes and there's no obvious
breaking changes for my purposes, so. Up we go!
The silly motivation is that I wanted to remove `.prettierignore`,
which just exists to omit that one folder from `npm run format`. But it
also seems like this is the standard place to put them—a standard
created long after we first set this up lol
I forget what this was for, I think part of it was for managing item
names in different languages, and the "private" locale thing was
probably for WIP locales? But yeah, not used, delete!
Yeah, I don't remember why So Many Years Ago I felt it was important to
use the Droid fonts; I adapted this choice into the Noto fonts when
modernizing the other day, but, tbh, the default system fonts are
probably just a better fit for like. everything we do, and then *not*
downloading MB of font files.
I also feel like a lot of the contexts where we used serif fonts were
like, frankly incidental, based on where we chose `<p>` for semantic
reasons? I don't think any of them actually are made much better by
serifs, I'm okay with just simplifying and dropping that, instead of
looking for a better serif font stack to replace it.
There's some funny bugs we had here, like "Relic Elephante Jewellery"
and "Royal Girl Skeith Bodice" getting assigned "Ice", and
"Tyrannian Meerca Spear" being "Pea" lmao
I went and checked all the assignments now and they look good to me!
```ruby
Item.is_pb.order(:name).
map { |i| [i.pb_color&.human_name, i.name] }
```
Ahh right, when you indent stuff underneath a tag in HAML, it does the
same indented form in the output HTML, which adds whitespace that
creates a problem for how we're doing this list.
Before this change, the "Engulfed in Flames Effect" item showed below
the preview: `Occupies: Background Item , Lower Foreground Item`, with
an extra space before the comma.
After this change, it now shows
`Occupies: Background Item, Lower Foreground Item`, as intended.
Fun little bug: viewing the "Engulfed in Flames Effect" item was
showing our "502 Bad Gateway" custom error page in the embed. This is
because the Rails app was providing a `Content-Security-Policy` header
value that was longer than nginx is configured by default to allow, so
it was refusing the response, and showing the same 502 error as if the
app hadn't responded at all. (We discovered this by opening
`/var/log/nginx/error.log`, which explained this very clearly, ty~!)
In this change, we no longer list every `images.neopets.com` asset,
instead marking the entire domain as a valid image source for the
SWF asset embed iframe. I don't _love_ this solution, I liked the
property of specifying literally exactly the assets we allow! But I
don't think there's any practical danger here, and it helps a *lot* for
making this more reliable.
(If we could have solved this reliably by increasing nginx's allowed
response header size, I probably would've done that? But I researched a
bit, and ultimately concluded that I don't trust other intermediary
software like firewalls not to have the same issue. Let's not be
pushing the limits of HTTP headers of all things!)
This shouldn't ever be an issue in practice? I just noticed it because
something funny is going on with the `#userbar` element specifically
not using the Delicious font, and so I figured, hey, this simulates a
very real possible scenario, I'd rather use our consistent sans font
in this case!
Huh okay, moving to my other machine, the change to Noto Sans subtly
broke the homepage layout a bit, wrapping the form buttons to the next
line in the three module sections.
Here, I refactor to more modern grid/flexbox sensibilities. Btw, there
was a Flexbox thing that didn't work quite how I expected? I commented
on my confusion, but checked in Chrome and Firefox and it seems to work
in both, so, ok!
