Auto Accept PR 2: Frontend & Waiting List Integration

[dunkOnIT]

Frontend Changes

• Give organizers a way to toggle auto-accept off
• Add disable auto accept button for organizers when auto accept is enabled
• Add enable/disable auto accept settings in the competition form
• Make the "Disable Auto Accept" button actually do something when it is clicked, to indicate whether or not auto accept was successfully disabled

Backend Changes

• Auto-accept users onto waiting list when Accepted is full
  • Should they be accepted onto the waiting list if the auto-accept-cutff has been reached? No - consulted people on discord
• Auto-accept users from waiting list if a spot becomes available in the accepted list (ie, if an attendee's status changes away from accepted
• Add bulk auto accept class method
• Add bulk auto accept route
• Test if registration history and state change emails get created/sent as expected

Future PR

• Move waiting list to above the accepted list if it has at least one registration || competitor_limit has been reached | auto_accept is enabled and auto_accept_disable_threshold has been reached
• Warn an organizer if they're trying to accept a user from the Pending list while there are registrations on the Waiting List
• Give organizers a way to toggle auto-accept on
• Give organizers a way to run a bulk auto-accept
• Automatically run bulk auto-accept when auto-accept is toggled on
  • Warn organizers this will happen, and give them an "Are you sure?" dialogue, where saying "No" will

Waiting list:

• Accept a user from the waiting list if a spot becomes available on the Accepted list
• Model Tests
  • allow auto-accepting the first position on the waiting list
• Integration Tests
  • Trigger an auto_accept job from the competing lane if a user's status changes away from accepted

[dunkOnIT]

Add to waiting list:

• If the Accepted list is full, accept users onto the Waiting List
  • What if the auto_accept_disable threshold is reached?

[dunkOnIT]

Bulk auto accept class method tests:

• Accepts competitors from the waiting list
  • in order of waiting list
• Accepts pending competitors
  • in order of payment
• Accepts up to but not exceeding the competition limit
  • those not accepted follow the expected order (later on waiting list = not accepted, later payment = not accepted)

Can we use competitionInfo as the source of truth?

[dunkOnIT]

Currently it is being hydrated on render (not queried via API), so there's no way to refetch it currently. Assuming we could refetch it, how would you suggest we then update whether or not the "Disable auto accept" button is rendered - declare all of competitionInfo a state? (my understanding is that React doesn't detect changes in the state of variables)

[FinnIckler]

if we would fetch it, we would rely on the react Query to handle the state being up to date.

[kr-matthews]

Yeah it would be pretty simple if we switch to fetching it with react query, I think.

Having a situation where there are 2 sources of truth (competitionInfo.auto_accept_registrations and autoAcceptEnabled), and which could disagree, is not good - leaves room for future bugs, etc.
