jordi fita mas 44526b1efb Add the edit form for services
This one has an input to select the icon.  It makes no sense to choose
an icon only by name, thus a <select> is not appropriate, and had to
use a hidden input with a row of button to choose the icon from.  This
works now only because there are very few icons; we’ll need to choose
a different approach when there are many more icons.

Since now the icons have to be defined in CSS for both the public and
admin sections, i had to split it into a separate file that both sites
can use.  I considered the option to “include” that CSS with m4, like
i do for images in demo.sql, but it made everything too complicated
(e.g., having to call make for each change in the CSS), and decided to
load that CSS in a separate <link>.

jordi fita mas 6d84b8baad Fix campground and campsite nomenclature for SVG map
I am using the US terms for campground and campsite, that’s why the
relation is called ‘campsite’ instead of ‘pitch’, but i used the wrong
terminology in the SVG map because the customer uses the UK term and
call themselves campsite, so i mixed things.

It is now the campground map and each individual area is a campsite,
as i have been using all along.

jordi fita mas e3503187d3 Add campsite map in SVG
I intend to use the same SVG file for customers and employees, so i had
to change Oriol’s design to add a class to layers that are supposed to
be only for customers, like trees.  These are hidden in the admin area.

I understood that customers and employees have to click on a campsite to
select it, and then they can book or whatever they need to do to them.
Since customers and employees most certainly will need to have different
listeners on campsites, i decided to add the link with JavaScript.  To
do so, i need a custom XML attribute with the campsite’s identifier.

Since i have seen that all campsites have a label, i changed the
“identifier” to the unique combination (company_id, label).  The
company_id is there because different companies could have the same
label; i left the campsite_id primary key for foreign constraints.

In this case, as a test, i add an <a> element to the campsite with a
link to edit it; we’ll discuss with Oriol what exactly it needs to do.

However, the original design had the labels in a different layer, that
interfered with the link, as the numbers must be above the path and
the link must wrap the path in order to “inherit” its shape.  I had no
other recourse than to move the labels in the same layer as the paths’.

jordi fita mas 5a16fa44a6 Change media picker from <div> to <dialog> and make it modal
Have to call Dialog.showModal when HTMx loaded the dialog in the DOM,
so had to add a onLoad event listened that checks whether the loaded
element is actually a DIALOG.

Had to restrict the margin: 0 for all elements (*) to exclude dialog,
because the browser sets it to auto, and i did not want to set it again
just because i was too overzealous with my “reset”.

The rest of the CSS is just to have a sticky header and footer, and see
the cancel button, that works as a “close”, all the time.

Finally, i realized that if i add the dialog at the end of the fieldset
and let HTMx inherit its hx-target and hx-swap, i no longer need to set
them in the dialog, as HTMx will always replace the fieldset, and i can
have the dialog side by side the current content of the fieldset, that
it was very confusing seeing it disappear when trying to select a new
media.

The cancel button could now just remove the dialog instead of making the
POST, but in local it makes no difference; we’lls see what happens on
production.

jordi fita mas 97cf117da3 Manage all media uploads in a single place
It made no sense to have a file upload in each form that needs a media,
because to reuse an existing media users would need to upload the exact
same file again; this is very unusual and unfriendly.

A better option is to have a “centralized” media section, where people
can upload files there, and then have a picker to select from there.
Ideally, there would be an upload option in the picker, but i did not
add it yet.

I’ve split the content from the media because i want users to have the
option to update a media, for instance when they need to upload a
reduced or cropped version of the same photo, without an edit they would
need to upload the file as a new media and then update all places where
the old version was used.  And i did not want to trouble people that
uploads the same photo twice: without the separate relation, doing so
would throw a constraint error.

I do not believe there is any security problem to have all companies
link their media to the same file, as they were already readable by
everyone and could upload the data from a different company to their
own; in other words, it is not worse than it was now.

jordi fita mas f48936f800 Add internationalization and localization of campsite types
I am not happy with the localization interface for admins, but it is the
easier that i could think of (for me, i guess), with a separate for
each language.

I am not at all proud of the use of RecordArray, but i did not see the
need to create and register a type just to show the translation links.
I might change my mind when i need to add more and more translation
links, but only it the current interface remains, which i am not that
sure at the moment.

jordi fita mas 403c27f1e1 Add the skeleton of the web application
It does nothing more than to server a single page that does nothing
interesting.

This time i do not use a router.  Instead, i am trying out a technique
i have seen in an article[0] that i have tried in other, smaller,
projects and seems to work surprisingly well: it just “cuts off” the
URI path by path, passing the request from handler to handler until
it finds its way to a handler that actually serves the request.

That helps to loosen the coupling between the application and lower
handlers, and makes dependencies explicit, because i need to pass the
locale, company, etc. down instead of storing them in contexts.  Let’s
see if i do not regret it on a later date.

I also made a lot more packages that in Numerus.  In Numerus i actually
only have the single pkg package, and it works, kind of, but i notice
how i name my methods to avoid clashing instead of using packages for
that.  That is, instead of pkg.NewApp i now have app.New.

Initially i thought that Locale should be inside app, but then there was
a circular dependency between app and template.  That is why i created a
separate package, but now i am wondering if template should be inside
app too, but then i would have app.MustRenderTemplate instead of
template.MustRender.

The CSS is the most bare-bones file i could write because i am focusing
in markup right now; Oriol will fill in the file once the application is
working.
