[WEB-2361] fix: Sidebar loosing its collapse context of on refresh and on changing the size of the window

[Jimmycutie]

Problem Statement

Sidebar loosing its collapse context of on refresh and on changing the size of the window.

Solution

No context was being lost. There was if else statement which when the windows size changed or ran for first time, ran. The if else statement checked whether the window Size is less than 768px, the sidebar is to be collapsed else it should be expanded irrespective of value if it's previously collapsed or not.

Walkthrough

The change involves modifying the logic within the useEffect hook of the AppSidebar component in the sidebar.tsx file. The update simplifies the sidebar toggling behavior based on the window size and the sidebarCollapsed state, removing a condition that allowed the sidebar to be toggled open when it was already collapsed.

Poem

In the meadow where bunnies play,
The sidebar's dance has found its way.
With a hop and a skip, it stays in line,
No more toggles when the stars align.
A simpler path, oh what a treat,
For a happy rabbit, life is sweet! 🐇✨

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

• Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
  • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>.
  • Generate unit testing code for this file.
  • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
• Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
  • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
• PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai generate interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table.
  • @coderabbitai show all the console.log statements in this repository.
  • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
  • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
  • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.

Line range hint 29-31: Improved sidebar toggle logic.

The modification to the useEffect hook ensures that the sidebar's state is maintained across window resizes and refreshes. This change aligns well with the PR objectives and should improve user experience by keeping the sidebar state consistent.

However, it would be beneficial to add a comment explaining the logic behind this condition to aid future maintainability.

Consider adding a comment above the useEffect hook:

// Toggle sidebar only when window size is less than 768px and sidebar is not already collapsed

Line range hint 23-27: Review interaction between outside click detector and sidebar toggle logic.

The useOutsideClickDetector is used to toggle the sidebar when a click is detected outside of it, under specific conditions. This logic appears to complement the useEffect changes. However, ensure that there are no conflicts or redundant toggles between this and the useEffect logic, especially during window resizing and sidebar interactions.

Consider testing various scenarios where the sidebar might be interacted with, including rapid resizing and external clicks, to ensure the behavior remains consistent and as expected.

Line range hint 24-28: Improved Logic in useEffect:

The updated logic in the useEffect hook now correctly handles the sidebar's state by only toggling it when necessary. This should help maintain the sidebar's collapse state across different scenarios. It would be beneficial to add a comment explaining this logic for future maintainability.

Consider adding a comment above the useEffect logic:

// Toggle sidebar only when window size is less than 768px and sidebar is not already collapsed

The imports are well-organized and categorized, which enhances readability and maintainability. No issues found here.

Line range hint 18-22: Clarification Needed on Sidebar Toggle Logic:

The useOutsideClickDetector is used to toggle the sidebar when a click is detected outside of it. The condition checks if the sidebar is not collapsed and the window width is less than 768 pixels. Please clarify if this behavior is intended to only apply under these specific conditions, as it might not cover all scenarios where the sidebar should maintain its state.

Line range hint 30-60: Well-Structured Component Rendering:

The AppSidebar component is well-structured with clear conditional rendering based on the sidebarCollapsed state. The use of the cn helper function for managing class names is a good practice, enhancing the readability and maintainability of the component.
