Development: Improve handling of exercise in reset build plan logic

[reschandreas]

Checklist

General

• This is a small issue that I tested locally.
• Language: I followed the guidelines for inclusive, diversity-sensitive, and appreciative language.
• I chose a title conforming to the naming conventions for pull requests.

Server

• Important: I implemented the changes with a very good performance and prevented too many (unnecessary) database calls.
• I strictly followed the server coding and design guidelines.

Changes affecting Programming Exercises

• High priority: I tested all changes and their related features with all corresponding user types on a test server configured with the integrated lifecycle setup (LocalVC and LocalCI).

Motivation and Context

I added the JPA repository to the LocalCIService and removed the platform-dependent if statement from the resource.

Steps for Testing

1. Code review is fine

Review Progress

Performance Review

• I (as a reviewer) confirm that the client changes (in particular related to REST calls and UI responsiveness) are implemented with a very good performance
• I (as a reviewer) confirm that the server changes (in particular related to database calls) are implemented with a very good performance

Test Coverage

does not change, trivial move of statements.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Refactor
  • Improved the handling of programming exercises with local continuous integration by centralizing the save operation.

Walkthrough

The changes involve updating the local continuous integration (CI) service within a Java project to enhance the management of programming exercises. Specifically, a repository is now utilized to save updates to exercises directly after their build plan configurations are modified. Additionally, redundant database saving logic for exercises, when using local CI, has been removed from another part of the application, streamlining the process.

Changes

File Path	Change Summary
.../service/connectors/localci/LocalCIService.java	Added ProgrammingExerciseRepository and updated exercise saving logic.
.../web/rest/ProgrammingExerciseResource.java	Removed redundant exercise saving logic for isLocalCi cases.

Related issues

• Missing Build plans of imported exercise #7439: The changes in this PR could potentially address the issue of missing or incorrectly connected build plans for imported exercises by ensuring the build plan configurations are properly updated and saved. This aligns with the objectives of investigating and resolving errors related to build plans during exercise import or refurbishment.

Tips

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-tests 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 tests 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 tests.
  • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.

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.

CodeRabbit Commands (invoked as PR comments)

• @coderabbitai pause to pause the reviews on a PR.
• @coderabbitai resume to resume the paused reviews.
• @coderabbitai review to trigger a review. This is useful when automatic reviews are disabled for the repository.
• @coderabbitai resolve resolve all the CodeRabbit review comments.
• @coderabbitai help to get help.

Additionally, you can add @coderabbitai ignore anywhere in the PR description to prevent this PR from being reviewed.

CodeRabbit Configration File (.coderabbit.yaml)

• You can programmatically configure CodeRabbit by adding a .coderabbit.yaml file to the root of your repository.
