I understand where you're are coming from but this behavior is also not apparent in Playlists tab, Channel tab, and a Channel page.

Channel page one also applies to Nr 6 on the list of issue #2446 which is a way bigger issue

Just to clarify im not against this but I think we should do it for all pages instead of one for the sake of a consistent UX

kommunarr · 2024-05-31T00:29:47Z

I'd also like to know rationale, as I don't see any requests for this. I'm not necessarily opposed to it, but I don't have any reason to believe that the app remembering my last query would cause fewer irksome moments than the app not remembering it.

Making it work like search query page
I realize this when searching in history (and several videos popup), click one of them, not the one I want, go back, oops
Though I can always open in new windows (but mobile can't do it?)
Up to you guys

kommunarr · 2024-05-31T13:46:20Z

If you want, you can share the build & I can try it out for a while in personal use. It sounds nice in theory, but it feels more horizontal of a change for the use cases where you want to go to the initial page state & now have to click to clear the input. The search bar is also omnipresent, so you wouldn't ever forget what was going on, but here I could see it leading to momentary confusion and re-familiarizing yourself with the context of what's going on & what you were searching beforehand. Seems like maybe "open in a new tab" covers the type of use case you're mentioning better (albeit I guess not if you didn't expect to misclick).

Used router.replace to ensure the query text restored only on clicking back
Clicking on history link won't restore it

About the catch after replace:

Can you list all the page types so I won't miss any on next update?

kommunarr · 2024-06-30T22:39:50Z

That sounds like it would be a pretty sizable change to the codebase for a small feature. I would personally advise putting this one on the backburner just because I'm not sure if the feature would provide enough utility versus the effort to maintain it.

Edit: it also seems to do this on dev branch so i dont think its related to this PR but i could be wrong.

@efb4f5ff-1298-471a-8973-3d47447115dc
I just fixed this for search tab only
Since the data isElementListLoading for all tabs if any tab's data finished loading it shows the result too early
I introduced another state for search tab only (no need for other tabs yet coz PR is not for remembering other tabs)

absidue

As we are now adding the data limits to the URLs, there isn't really a need to duplicate them into session storage too, so we can probably remove that code.

Additionally the code for the channel page seems a bit messy, but in an unusual move for me I think I would be okay with it, assuming that it will be refactored soon anyway when we migrate the component to the composition API or start saving the selected tab in the URL, whichever happens sooner.

efb4f5ff-1298-471a-8973-3d47447115dc

To future after RC reviewer me: LGTM

PikachuEXE · 2024-10-17T00:25:08Z

@absidue
dataLimit and searchDataLimit and separated and I don't intend to introduce more changes to this already big PR causing potentially more stuff to test = more chances to break something

I can make a PR later for storing dataLimit into route instead of session storage (which might cause behaviour change, another reason to not do so in this PR

I haven't got round to testing the pull request yet, so for the moment here is a code review with a bunch suggestions and one question.

src/renderer/components/ChannelDetails/ChannelDetails.vue

src/renderer/views/Channel/Channel.vue

absidue · 2024-11-27T07:00:16Z

src/renderer/views/SubscribedChannels/SubscribedChannels.vue

+;(() => {
  document.addEventListener('keydown', keyboardShortcutHandler)
  getSubscription()
-})
+
+  const oldQuery = route.query.searchQueryText ?? ''
+  if (oldQuery !== null && oldQuery !== '') {
+    // `handleQueryChange` must be called after `filterHistoryDebounce` assigned
+    handleQueryChange(oldQuery, true)
+  }
+})()


Could you please explain why you changed this from an onMounted callback to an immediately invoked function?

It was changed from mounted to created but in composition style either it's in setup block
However oldQuery is only used inside created so I wrap it with an immediately invoked function

The keyboard shortcut handler should be moved back into onMounted as we shouldn't be intercepting key presses before the user can actually see the component. As for the other stuff I don't think it's worth making it more complicated with an immediately invoked function because setup is compiled to a function, so the variable will get garbage collected as soon as it reaches the bottom of it anyway.
