[WB2] Warn user when viewing a project / collection containing illegal characters
Added by Tom Morris over 4 years ago.
Updated over 4 years ago.
Description
If a project name or collection name contains a slash (/) or is the string "." or ".." warn the user that this is incompatible with WebDAV clients.
UI affordance is a small red "!" icon with hover text containing the error message.
- Subject changed from Warn user when viewing a project / collection containing illegal characters to [WB2] Warn user when viewing a project / collection containing illegal characters
- Assigned To set to Lucas Di Pentima
- Status changed from New to In Progress
Updates at 8378a7a9 - branch 15856-illegal-chars-warning
- Places a red
(!) icon (new component) on different places when a collection or project name includes a / character or is '.' or '..', with a tooltip explaining the user what the issue is:
- Side panel: Projects tree.
- Breadcrumbs.
- Collection panel: Name header.
- Project data explorer table.
- Removes unused code.
- Unifies tree picker code.
- Fixes error handling on collection update dialog.
- Renames error constant from UNIQUE_VIOLATION (??) to UNIQUE_NAME_VIOLATION.
Pending: I've discovered a bug that I haven't been able to fix yet but it doesn't block this story. When trying to rename a collection, wb2 sends an invalid data key menu_kind to the API server, I'm not sure why typescript allows this yet.

Nit: I would prefer the warning icon at the end of the text instead of the beginning, but that is really just a preference and is up to you.
Other than that, this works great and LGTM!
Side note, I am able to rename collections fine via clicking on "Actions->Edit collections"
From chat: Projects/Collections create/edit dialogs need their validations to be updated to not allow illegal naming.
Update at 435d259b
- Adds name validation to create & edit dialogs.
- Status changed from In Progress to Resolved
