This way the code is easier to follow; the code checking whether the
list has contents is in the partial rendering the list.
We also remove some duplication setting up related content in the
controllers.
For some reason, we have to manually ignore i18n keys which were
automatically ignored when the code was in the view.
Note we're using the `call` method (which is equivalent to adding an ERB
file) because we were getting an error calling `render` from the `dates`
method:
```
ActionView::Base#lookup_context delegated to
view_renderer.lookup_context, but view_renderer is nil:
```
It might be because we aren't rendering the
`Adming::Budgets::DurationComponent` but just calling one method, and so
there's no view context in this case.
We don't need to use `block_given?` since we specifically pass the block
parameter, particularly since we added the Style/ExplicitBlockArgument
rule in commit a102f3f0a.
When render the investment list component with the link "see all
investments", now we redirect to groups index page when a budget has
multiple headings.
Our previous system to delete cached attachments didn't work for
documents because the `custom_hash_data` is different for files created
from a file and files created from cached attachments.
When creating a document attachment, the name of the file is taken into
account to calculate the hash. Let's say the original file name is
"logo.pdf", and the generated hash is "123456". The cached attachment
will be "123456.pdf", so the generated hash using the cached attachment
will be something different, like "28af3". So the file that will be
removed will be "28af3.pdf", and not "123456.pdf", which will still be
present.
Furthermore, there are times where users choose a file and then they
close the browser or go to a different page. In those cases, we weren't
deleting the cached attachments either.
So we're adding a rake task to delete these files once a day. This way
we can simplify the logic we were using to destroy cached attachments.
Note there's related a bug in documents: when editing a record (for
example, a proposal), if the title of the document changes, its hash
changes, and so it will be impossible to generate a link to that
document. Changing the way this hash is generated is not an option
because it would break links to existing files. We'll try to fix it when
moving to Active Storage.
We were hiding the file input and styling the label as a button instead.
Since clicking on a label has the same effect as clicking on the input,
the input worked properly for mouse and touch screen users.
However, hiding the input makes it inaccessible for keyboard users,
since labels don't get keyboard focus, but inputs do.
So we must not hide the input but make it invisible instead. But we
still need to hide the input (alongside the label) after a file has been
attached.
We could add some extra JavaScript to hide the input when we hide the
label. Since the JavaScript is already quite complex and my first few
attempts at changing it failed, I've opted to assume that the input (and
its label) must be hidden whenever there's already a file name, and
implement that rule with CSS.
Note we're using the `:focus-within` pseudoclass to style a label when
focus is on the input. This rule (at the time of writing) is only
supported by 93.5% of the browsers. Keyboard users without a screen
reader and using the other 6.5% of the browsers will still be able to
focus on the field but might not notice the field has received focus.
Since the percentage of affected users will decrease over time and until
now 100% of keyboard users were completely unable to focus on these
fields, for now we think this is a good-enough solution.
This way screen reader users will hear the name of the file before
hearing about the link to destroy it. We were already displaying it this
way visually by having the file name on the left and the destroy link on
the right.
Thanks to this change we can also simplify the code which dynamically
changed the layout.
Using `dom_id` means generating `new_document` as ID for new documents.
Since there might be more than one new document in the form, that means
duplicate IDs, which is invalid HTML.
Even though this issue doesn't affect image fields (because we don't
have many images on the same form), we're removing the ID there as well
for consistency.
These labels weren't associated with any fields, which is invalid HTML.
We're using a legend inside a fieldset instead, which is the natural way
to group form fields together.
The imageable/documentable object is always the object the form builder
is based on; since we're already passing the form builder, we don't have
to pass the object as well.
The only exception are the poll answers. In this case, we're passing a
new answer as the object. That's OK; the same hack that we're using to
send the data to the answer URL without displaying existing attachments
causes the form to keep working the same way.
We were using long, unique names because these methods used to be helper
methods. Helper methods should have unique names because otherwise one
method would overwrite the other.
Now that we're using components, we can omit the `image_` and
`document_` prefixes.
So we don't add the same lines to pretty much every stylesheet we
create.
Eventually we'll remove this code and add a padding to every <main>
element, or (even better) to the <body> element itself.
We don't need any row classes anymore because the <body> already has a
maximum width. As for columns, we only have one column in this form, so
we don't need them either. Besides, the form's parent element already
has a padding.
Since now categories are loaded in both the investment form component
and proposal form component, and their controllers are the only
"commentable" controllers using the `@categories` instance variable, we
can remove the `load_categories` call in `CommentableActions` affecting
the create and update actions.
We don't need any row classes anymore because the <body> already has a
maximum width. As for columns, we only have one column in this form, so
we don't need them either. Besides, the form's parent element already
has a padding.
Although most CONSUL installation don't enable the translation
interface, we're adding some code to take this case into account.
These element had no columns inside and the row classes had only been
added to give them a maximum width. That's no longer necessary since now
the body has that maximum width.
As mentioned in commit 5214d89c8, using the `change` event of a `select`
field to automatically change location is really annoying for keyboard
users, since the event will trigger when pressing the down key to
navigate through the options or when typing a key to start searching for
an option. This might cause a lot of frustration.
Most multilanguage CONSUL sites enable between 2 and 4 languages. In
these cases, it's easier to just display the list of languages to
simplify the selection.
This way in this situation we also make it clear which languages are
available. If we use a `<select>` tag, users will have to open it in
order to check whether the site is available in their preferred
language.
This is also useful when the current language uses characters users
don't recognize; users will recognize their own language in the list of
available languages, while it might be harder to recognize the language
selector allows them to switch to a different language.
In this case, we're also hiding the label because a list of links with
language names is usually self explanatory for sighted users. We're
still providing it for screen reader users so they immediately know the
list allows them to change the language and if they don't need to do so
they can quickly skip it.
I'm not sure screen readers recognize this attribute inside `<option>`
tags, but if they do, it'll probably be helpful. And if they don't, no
harm will be done.
Note that in order to simplify the component tests (which for some
reason seem to be whitespace-sensitive), we have to omit whitespace
characters inside the `<option>` tags.
Also note we're simplifying the test with a missing language name; since
a component test doesn't involve a whole request, we don't need a
complex setup (I'm not sure we even need it in system tests).
Since we're simplifying the main method, we can use a view file instead
of the `call` method. This way we make the code more consistent with the
rest of our components, since we always use a separate file.
Doing so generates an extra newline at the end of the generated HTML, so
we need to change a couple of tests a little bit.
This way it's easier to refactor it and/or change it.
Back in commit c156621a4 I wrote:

It's time to modify these criteria a little bit. In some situations,
it's great to have a helper method so it can be easily used in view
(like `link_to`). However, from the maintenance point of view, helper
methods are usually messy because extracting methods requires making
sure there isn't another helper method with that name.
So we can use the best part of these worlds and provide a helper so it
can be easily called from the view, but internally make that helper
render a component and enjoy the advantages associated with using an
isolated Ruby class.
