Noticing a lot of Maraquan items on the homepage today, and they're
doing that thing of expecting standard body types to be relevant too,
because I think we wrote this logic before the Maraquan Mynci ended up
having the same standard Mynci body? (Maybe? Or maybe I'm being
ahistorical and I just wrote this wrong to begin with lol)
In any case, this is more accurate, and I think I'm also maybe
incidentally noticing that it's running faster, at least in my brief
before/after production testing? (There's *more* queries, like 100! But
many of them are *very* fast lookups, coming in at under 1ms—and also a
lot of them are dupes being served by Rails's request-scoped query
cache.)
Huh, I hadn't realized that like, we'd already set up the controller to
always *run* basically all of the modeling logic, and the caching in
the view layer wasn't saving us any queries anymore. Kinda silly!
Remove the caching call, just to simplify the codebase (I like to avoid
caching things that don't specifically need it!).
And hey, love that the modeling code in the controller is now *way*
faster to run! You love to see it!
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 is the second part of the previous change `efda6d74`, in which we
switch out the item search query conditions!
This was a two-parter to ease deployment: first deploy the change with
the migration, then *run* the migration (because it's an unusually slow
one), then deploy this change that actually uses it.
Another way to approach this would've been to deploy it all in one
commit, but not set it as `current` until we had run the migration.
That would have been a reasonable approach too!
This is the first part of a change to improve search performance, by
caching occupied zone IDs and supported body IDs onto the Item record
itself, instead of always doing joins with `SwfAsset`.
It's unfortunate, because part of the power of SQL is joins! But doing
joins with big tables, in ways that can't take advantage of indexes in
the same ways as we often want to, is… slow.
It's possible there's something I'm misunderstanding about SQL
optimization, and this _could_ be done with query optimization or
indexes instead of duplicating data like this? This complexity carries
the risk of data getting out of sync in unforeseen ways. But this is
what I know how to do, and it seems to be working, so! Okay!
By default, Rails gives this button the name `commit`, so it appears in
the URL the form sends to. By setting the name to `nil`, Rails doesn't
set a `name` attribute on the HTML element, so it's *not* included.
The lists of pet types and pet states had very similar styles, which I
mostly copy-pasted. Now that I want to use them for Alt Styles too, I'm
refactoring!
Ah whoops, I didn't notice that, when Turbo morphs the
`<measured-container>` into what the server HTML returns, it deletes
the `style` attribute we were using.
In this change, I refactor for `MeasuredContainer` to be the component
rather than `MeasuredContent`, so that it can also be responsible for
listening for changes to its own `style` prop, and remeasuring when
they happen.
We're also careful to avoid infinite loops, by only doing this when the
property is missing! (Otherwise, setting `--natural-width` triggers the
callback again, oops!)
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
```
"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!
