moving rsvps to local api route

[boykisserchan]

This pull request updates how RSVP counts are fetched and displayed, switching from a direct client-side fetch of an external API to a server-side API route that manages caching and rate limiting. It also improves the freshness and reliability of the displayed count, and makes a minor adjustment to the GitHub commit fetching logic.

RSVP Count Fetching Improvements:

• Added a new API route in src/pages/api/rsvp.ts that fetches RSVP counts from Airtable, paginates through all records, and caches the result for improved performance and rate limiting. The count is refreshed every 5 seconds.
• Updated the RSVP component in src/components/RSVP.tsx to use the new /api/rsvp endpoint, reduced the refresh interval to 10 seconds, and improved handling of loading and error states. The component now displays the new count field from the API.

Pull Request Overview

This PR migrates RSVP count fetching from an external API to an internal Next.js API route with Airtable integration. It adds caching to reduce API calls and simplifies the git API by removing the branch environment logic.

• Creates a new /api/rsvp endpoint that fetches RSVP counts from Airtable with built-in caching
• Updates the RSVP component to consume the new internal API endpoint
• Removes conditional branch logic from the git API, hardcoding to "main"

Using setInterval at module level in a Next.js API route creates a new interval each time the module is loaded in serverless environments, leading to multiple overlapping timers and memory leaks. In serverless/edge deployments, this approach is unreliable. Consider implementing time-based cache invalidation within the handler function (e.g., checking if cached.updated is stale) or using a separate cron job/scheduled task for cache updates.

Suggested change

	setInterval(async () => {
	const count = await getCount();
	cached = { value: count, updated: Date.now() };
	console.log("cached value", cached);
	}, 5000);
	export default async function handler(_req: NextApiRequest, res: NextApiResponse) {
	export default async function handler(_req: NextApiRequest, res: NextApiResponse) {
	// Invalidate cache if older than 5 seconds
	if (Date.now() - cached.updated > 5000) {
	const count = await getCount();
	cached = { value: count, updated: Date.now() };
	console.log("cached value", cached);
	}
