This commit introduces the MarkdownTablePasteService to facilitate markdown table pasting functionality. The service is registered in Program.cs and injected into NoteEditDialog and PageNoteDialog components. Additionally, OnAfterRenderAsync lifecycle methods are implemented in both dialog components to initialize the service after the editor is rendered, enhancing the user experience for note editing. This change supports improved markdown handling within the application.
This commit introduces the Note and NoteHistory entities, along with their respective configurations for Entity Framework Core. The AppDbContext has been updated to include DbSet properties for both entities. A new INotesService interface and its implementation, NotesService, have been created to handle CRUD operations for notes, including history tracking. Additionally, several Blazor components have been added for note management, including dialogs for editing notes and viewing note history. The UI has been enhanced to support markdown content rendering and improved user interaction for note creation and editing. These changes contribute to a comprehensive note-taking feature within the application.
This commit updates the LocationParsingConfiguration to include additional location patterns such as "Exhibit Hall *", "Mtg. Room *", and "Online". The EventOccurrenceParser has been enhanced to better handle parsing issues, including skipping comment and continuation lines, and cleaning up location text. New methods for analyzing location parsing failures and categorizing issues have been added to improve reporting. Additionally, the UI has been updated to support larger input sizes for event occurrence text, ensuring a smoother user experience during data import.
This commit introduces a new structure for handling parsing issues in the EventOccurrenceParser, allowing for detailed reporting of parsing problems such as unmatched lines, missing event definitions, and parsing failures for time, date, and location. A new ParsingIssue class has been added to encapsulate these details. Additionally, a LocationParsingConfiguration class has been implemented to support customizable location patterns, enhancing the flexibility of the parser. The EventOccurrenceParserService has been updated to utilize this configuration, and new tests have been added to ensure robust issue detection and reporting. Furthermore, the UI has been updated to display parsing issues, improving user feedback during the import process.
This commit introduces a new static file caching strategy in Program.cs, optimizing cache headers for Blazor assets to improve performance and ensure fresh content after deployments. Additionally, the Calendar component in Index.razor has been updated to include comprehensive logging for event loading, handling null occurrences, and error management during calendar item creation. The CalendarEventItem model is also initialized to prevent null reference issues. These changes enhance the application's reliability and user experience.
Updated the CareerMapping component to utilize VisNetwork for visualizing relationships between events and career fields. Replaced the previous Mermaid diagram implementation with a network graph, enhancing interactivity and visual clarity. Adjusted data generation logic to support the new network structure and updated relevant namespaces in the project files.
Enhanced the application's service layer by adding FormValidationService and EventDefinitionService to the dependency injection container in Program.cs. Updated Create, Edit, and other relevant components to utilize these services for improved form validation and event processing functionality.
Registered the new EventOccurrenceParserService in Program.cs to handle event occurrence parsing. Updated the _Imports.razor file to reflect the renaming of the EventCalendar component to Calendar. Removed the obsolete EventCalendar component to streamline the codebase.
Introduced a new Event Calendar component that displays scheduled events using the Heron.MudCalendar. Implemented IEventOccurrenceService to fetch event occurrences, and added mock data for initial testing. Updated navigation menu to include a link to the Event Calendar.
Implements a flexible validation framework for student rankings, team assignments, and team composition with administrator-configurable rules and thresholds.
Validation System:
- Reflection-based rule discovery eliminates manual registration
- Base classes (RequiredEventTypeRuleBase, EventCountThresholdRuleBase) reduce code duplication by ~250 lines
- 12 validation rules covering event requirements, counts, and team constraints
- Configurable severity levels (Warning/Error) per rule type
- ValidationService with caching for optimal performance
- Rules apply contextually (StudentRanking, StudentAssignment, TeamComposition)
Configuration & Admin UI:
- ValidationSettings admin page for editing thresholds and severity levels
- ChapterSettings admin page for editing chapter information
- Settings stored in Data/appsettings.json for runtime configuration
- JSON config works in both development and production environments
- Auto-creates Data directory and config template on first run
User Experience:
- ValidationWarnings component displays inline warnings/errors
- Integrated in Event Ranking, Registration, and Team Assignment pages
- Color-coded severity indicators (warning yellow, error red)
- Includes "Too Many Regional Events" rule (max 3 recommended)
Technical Improvements:
- Template Method pattern for rule base classes
- Singleton rule instances with lazy initialization
- Configuration loaded via IConfiguration with fallback to defaults
- Safe JSON updates preserve other appsettings sections
