Submit Page Basic Implementation

[seport]

As a user

I want to submit links to protest event pages

So that they are visible on the app

Given a user

When I submit a valid facebook link

Then that link should appear in the admin panel for approval

Notes:

• This page was already implemented in PHP. We want to rewrite it in rails.
• The link should be validated on the model:
  • To check that it is a valid facebook event link
  • To validate against the facebook API to make sure it is a valid event
  • that the event does not exist in the database already
• Events should be saved to an Event table with the following fields:
  • fb_id (the facebook event id, should be unique)
  • default rails fields (id, created_at, etc)
  • status: :unpublished

• should we delete the test directory as we're not using MiniTest?
• re: "link should appear in the admin panel for approval", why does there need to be admin approval if link has been verified by API? Are people submitting "inappropriate" links?

Specs to run

Model - Event

• test validates_format_of URL input

  • valid input returns true, parse_fb_id ({ expect(fb_id).to exist } would this this work for this purpose?)
  • else invalid input, expect { [invalid input] }.to raise_error

• test parse_fb_id from URL inputted

  • returns fb_id, service_call
  • else is there an exception here?

API Service logic (helper method / separate class / keep as method within Event?)

• test service_call to test validity of event:
  • success and returns true; if fb_id is not currently in database && passes admin approval:
    • create Event, (test assert_difference 'Event.count', 1)
    • else if currently in database (test assert_no_difference 'Event.count')
  • else raise an exception

---

Write validations in Model - Event

• validates :fb_id, presence: true; uniqueness: true
• validates :status, presence: true

Next steps:

• CSS for submit page
• Cache API Key
• Add an integration test (please do this)
• Validate uniqueness on the event id, and not the URL
