It is just the index of bookings in the created state, but we thought it
would make easier to understand the difference between a booking from
a customer not yet confirmed, from a booking confirmed or created by the
staff.
I need to retrieve the values from the database and put them in the
form, like all other forms, but in this case the processing is done as
if it were a new form, because everything comes from the query string
and there is no need to do any extra work then.
Had to move the <footer> from the fields.gohtml to form.gohtml because
then it could not know that it was editing an existing booking. Had to
move the <fieldset> out too, in order to give it an ID and make it
htmx’s target, or it would replace the form, causing even more problems
—the button would disappear then—. The target **must** be in <form>
because it is needed for tis children’s hx-get and for its own hx-put.
Had to bring the same fields that i have for a payment to booking,
except that some of those should be nullable, because it is unreasonable
to ask front desk to gather all customer data when they have a booking
via phone, for instance.
Therefore, i can not take advantage of the validation for customer data
that i use in the public-facing form, but, fortunately, most of the
validations where in separated functions, thus only had to rewrite that
one for this case.
I already have to create a booking from a payment, when receiving a
payment from the public instance, thus i made that function and reused
it here. Then i “overwrite” the newly created pre-booking with the
customer data from the form, and set is as confirmed, as we do not see
any point of allowing pre-bookings from employees.
It does nothing but compute the total of a booking, much like it does
for guests. In fact, i use the same payment relations to do the exact
same computation, otherwise i am afraid i will make a mistake in the
ACSI or such, now or in future version; better if both are exactly the
same.
The idea is that once the user creates the booking, i will delete that
payment, because it makes no sense to keep it in this case; nobody is
going to pay for it.
Had to reuse the grid showing the bookings of campsites because
employees need to select one or more campsites to book, and need to see
which are available. In this case, i have to filter by campsite type
and use the arrival and departure dates to filter the months, now up to
the day, not just month.
Had to change max width of th and td in the grid to take into account
that now a month could have a single day, for instance, and the month
heading can not stretch the day or booking spans would not be in their
correct positions.
For that, i needed to access campsiteEntry, bookingEntry, and Month from
campsite package, but campsite imports campsite/types, and
campsite/types already imports booking for the BookingDates type. To
break the cycle, had to move all that to booking and use from campsite;
it is mostly unchanged, except for the granularity of dates up to days
instead of just months.
The design of this form calls for a different way of showing the totals,
because here employees have to see the amount next to the input with
the units, instead of having a footer with the table. I did not like
the idea of having to query the database for that, therefore i “lifter”
the payment draft into a struct that both public and admin forms use
to show they respective views of the cart.
