This keeps causing missing-attribute crashes when I change things, and
I don't think the performance benefit is a big deal for how the page
currently runs, esp as we keep gathering more attributes? I feel like
`description` is the main "large" one we're omitting, and like. Shrug!
We're now caching `predicted_fully_modeled?` on the database record, so
we can query by it in the database!
I'm moving on from the model I did in Impress 2020, of writing really
big fancy single-source-of-truth queries based on the assets themselves.
I see the merit of that in terms of theoretical reliability, but in
practice I think it will be *more* reliable to have one *in-code*
definition of modeling status (which we need anyway for generating the
homepage modeling requests), and just save that in a queryable way.
Oh huh, when doing Rainbow Pool stuff, I put the ordering in the wrong
place! It's a sensible ordering for the Rainbow Pool page, but not so
much for the JSON view!
Oh right, yeah, we like to do things gracefully around here when
there's no corresponding color/species record yet!
Paying more attention to this, I'm thinking like… it could be a cool
idea to, in modeling, *create* the new color/species record, and just
not have all the attributes filled in yet? Especially now that we're
less dependent on attributes like `standard` to be set for correct
functioning.
But for now, we follow the same strategy we do elsewhere in the app: a
pet type can have `color_id` and `species_id` that don't correspond to
a real record, and we cover over that smoothly.
Because we ended up with such a big error, and it doesn't have an easy
fix, I'm wrapping up today by reverting the entire set of refactors
we've done lately, so modeling in production can continue while we
improve this code further over time.
I generated this commit by hand-picking the refactor-y commits
recently, running `git revert --no-commit <hash>` in reverse order,
then manually updating `pet_spec.rb` to reflect the state of the code:
passing the most important behavioral tests, but no longer passing one
of the kinds of annoyances I *did* fix in the new code.

Hmm, I think I made a mistake on `modeling_snapshot.rb:69`: I'm
assigning the *entire* `item.swf_assets` relation to *just* the assets
for the new model of it, which breaks all the other connections.
First, I'm disabling modeling. Then, I'll restore a backup. Then, I'll
write tests for that case, and fix it up!
If you check this box, it'll keep you in a mode where saving an alt
style redirects you to the *next* one that needs labeling, until
they're all done. Useful for big drops!
This clocks in a bit bigger than what Impress 2020 does in terms of
binary encoding (with gzip it's at 11K instead of 4K), but I'm okay
with that for the simplicity win.
Gonna try to swap this in for where we're still using Impress 2020 for
the species/color picker in the outfit editor!
I have some other changes planned too, but these are some easy ones. I
also turn back on this stuff in development, in hopes that my changes
can make these queries fast enough to not be a big deal anymore!
This hasn't worked for a while anyway! Let's remove the bits of code
where we deal with it, and the database field that signals it. (We also
make a corresponding change in Impress 2020, so it doesn't crash trying
to query based on the `prank` column.)
I also ran this snippet to clear out all the Nebula stuff in the db:
```rb
Color.transaction do
nebula = Color.where(prank: true).find_by_name("Nebula")
nebula.pet_types.includes(pet_states: :swf_assets).each do |pet_type|
pet_type.pet_states.each do |pet_state|
pet_state.parent_swf_asset_relationships.each do |psa|
psa.swf_asset.destroy!
psa.destroy!
end
pet_state.destroy!
end
pet_type.destroy!
end
nebula.destroy!
end
```
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.
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!
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!)
I think this has just been broken for a long time? And I don't think
it's very useful in a world 15 years later, where our problem *used* to
be giant gaps in our library, which isn't really our data problem
anymore.
This was always modeling correctly, but not showing the message,
because Turbo doesn't handle anchors in redirect URLs the same way the
browser's full page loads do.
I forget why we had this as a `#` URL anyway to begin with. Use `?`
instead!
Oh oops, I forgot one of the kinds of restricted zones when refactoring
how we load search data in wardrobe-2020! This made most items with
restricted zones (like Be Gone items) not work correctly when you
search for them to add them to the item—though it *does* work correctly
when you reload the page or change the species, to get to load a
different way.
The basics are working great! There's a few known missing things though:
- Add reasonable noscript behavior
- Disable options where there's no valid appearance
- Lay it out actually _good_, instead of just images dumped there
Adapting what the Impress 2020 UI does, but in Ruby instead!
I feel like this is case is really starting to show the power of doing
this stuff in Rails instead of via an API… we can *really* take
advantage of our models and our handy idioms at all points. This is
just so much less *code* than this feature takes in Node + GraphQL +
React.
