This commit restructures the EventOccurrenceParser by breaking down its functionality into modular components, including EventDefinitionResolver, LineClassifier, LocationPatternMatcher, SectionHeaderMatcher, TimeLocationParser, and TimeParser. This refactoring enhances code readability and maintainability, allowing for easier updates and testing. Additionally, the TextUtil class has been updated to include input sanitization methods. Comprehensive unit tests have been added to ensure the correctness of the new parsing logic and to validate the handling of various event occurrence scenarios.
This commit replaces individual month parsers with a dynamic array of month names, enhancing maintainability. The EventOccurrenceParser has been updated to utilize this new structure, ensuring consistent parsing of month names. Additionally, input normalization has been improved by standardizing hyphen handling and ensuring that all relevant parsing methods utilize the sanitized input. This change streamlines the parsing process and enhances overall robustness.
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.
Added a Description property to the CareerField class to provide a short overview of each career field. Updated the CareerFieldDefinitions to include descriptions for all career fields. Modified the CareerMapping component to display the description of the selected career field or event, improving user experience by providing more context about each node.
Updated the CareerMapping component to improve clarity by changing terminology from "careers" to "career fields" throughout the UI. Enhanced the diagram generation logic to filter events based on related career fields, ensuring accurate representation of relationships. Added styling for event and field nodes in the Mermaid diagram for better visual distinction.
Removed minimum length constraints from SemifinalistActivity and Notes properties in the EventDefinition class to simplify validation requirements. This change enhances flexibility in data entry while maintaining the maximum length restrictions.
Introduced a many-to-many relationship between EventDefinition and Career entities, allowing for the association of multiple careers with an event. Updated the AppDbContext to include a DbSet for Careers and modified the EventDefinitionConfiguration to handle the new relationship. Enhanced the Create, Edit, and Details components to support input and display of related careers, including normalization and processing logic for career names. Updated the database schema to reflect these changes.
Added new event definitions for "Meet the Candidates", "Chapter Officer Meeting", "Voting Delegate Meeting", and "Social Gathering". Updated the EventOccurrenceParser to handle these new event types and modified related services and views to accommodate the changes. Improved test coverage for the new event definitions and ensured proper parsing and display in the calendar components.
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.
Created the EventOccurrence entity with properties for event details and added it to the AppDbContext. Updated the model snapshot to reflect the new entity and its relationships, ensuring proper database schema generation.
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
