Mehedi is discovering Lino Noi and caused the following server traceback:

Internal Server Error: /api/working/MySessions/-99999
RelatedObjectDoesNotExist at /api/working/MySessions/-99999
Session has no ticket.

Yes, he probably tried to click the insert button in lino_xl.lib.working.MySessions or some other table of work sessions.

To create a session, you must click on the button in the Workflow field (which runs the lino_xl.lib.working.StartTicketSession action).

In tables of work sessions we don’t want users to manually create a session. There should be no insert button (insert) So for lino_xl.lib.working.Sessions I removed the insert_layout.

Having no insert_layout doesn’t yet disable the phantom row in grid views. For this I must also set can_create to False.

I committed above work in two repositories:

  • 2021-02-26 06:21 in xl: a0cb403 (fix #3993 (session has no ticket))

  • 2021-02-26 06:23 in book: 0b4591d (changelog. review docs about work time.)

Inserting primeicon icons into the sphinx docs

How to include icons from primeicons into a docs page? For example the filter button button?

I downloaded the source file to a folder /shared/images/pi (under docs):

$ curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/primefaces/primeicons/master/raw-svg/filter.svg > filter.svg

I added docutils substitution definitions to my /shared/include/defs.rst file:

.. |filter|  image:: /../docs/shared/images/pi/filter.svg
  :class: svg

And in the linodocs.css file of lino.sphinxcontrib.logo I added the css descriptor:

img.pi-button {
    width: 1.1em;
    height: 1.1em;
    background-color: LightSkyBlue;
    border: 3px solid LightSkyBlue;
}

I later automated the download task by writing a download.py script in the /shared/images/pi folder.

TODO: find a way so that we don’t need to copy the defs.rst and the .svg files to each repository. I agree that there are more urgent issues in Lino.

Cannot edit grid cells

I continued to dive around in #3981.

During a debugger tour I saw that the grid calls a method primereact.datatable.BodyCell.bindDocumentEditListener(), which adds the following documentEditListener:

if (!this.documentEditListener) {
      this.documentEditListener = function (e) {
        if (_this3.isOutsideClicked(e)) {
          _this3.switchCellToViewMode(e, true);
        }
      };
    document.addEventListener('click', this.documentEditListener);
    }

And the isOutsideClicked() returns true. Which is obviously wrong here. But why? First of all, which version of PrimeReact do I have? 6.0.1. And they released 6.0.2 some weeks ago. So let’s upgrade:

$ ncu -u
Upgrading /home/luc/work/react/package.json
[====================] 34/34 100%

 primereact             ^6.0.1  →    ^6.0.2
 @babel/core          ^7.12.10  →   ^7.13.1
 @babel/preset-env    ^7.12.11  →   ^7.13.5
 @babel/preset-react  ^7.12.10  →  ^7.12.13

 cypress                ^6.3.0  →    ^6.5.0
 postcss-loader         ^4.2.0  →    ^5.0.0
 query-string          ^6.13.8  →   ^6.14.0
 webpack                    ^4  →        ^5
 whatwg-fetch           ^3.5.0  →    ^3.6.1

Run npm install to install new versions.

However before running npm install I changed webpack back from 5 to 4 in my package.json file because switching from webpack 4 to 5 is another topic.

But the issue remains also with PR 6.0.2.

I looked at the git history of datatable/BodyCell.js and saw that it has an interesting change only some hours ago. And the commit message says it fixes an issue #1828, which looks interesting.

I have a git clone of primereact on my machine. How can I “install this as the development version”, similar to pip install -e?

In my package.json I changed the version spec for primereact dependency from “^6.0.2” to “git+https://github.com/primefaces/primereact.git” and ran npm install.

Then I read this thread and tried “file:../primereact”.
