Raw Normal View History

Add user_profile view to update the profile with form Since users do not have access to the auth scheme, i had to add a view that selects only the data that they can see of themselves (i.e., no password or cookie). I wanted to use the `request.user.id` setting that i set in check_cookie, but this would be bad because anyone can change that parameter and, since the view is created by the owner, could see and *change* the values of everyone just by knowing their id. Thus, now i use the cookie instead, because it is way harder to figure out, and if you already have it you can just set to your browser and the user is fucked anyway; the database can not help here. I **am** going to use the user id in row level security policies, but not the value coming for the setting but instaed the one in the `user_profile`, since it already is “derived” from the cookie, that’s why i added that column to the view. The profile includes the language, that i do not use it yet to switch the locale, so i had to add a relation of the available languages, for constraint purposes. There is no NULL language, and instead i added the “Undefined” language, with ‘und’ tag’, to represent “do not know/use content negotiation”. The languages in that relation are the same i used to have inside locale.go, because there is no point on having options for languages i do not have the translation for, so i now configure the list of available languages user in content negotiation from that relation. Finally, i have added all font from RemixIcon because that’s what we used in the design and i am going to use quite a lot of them. There is duplication in the views; i will address that in a different commit.

Add currency_pattern to language relation The design calls for rendering all amounts with their currency symbol, but golang.org/x/text’s currency package always render the symbol in front, which is wrong in Catalan and Spanish, and a lot of other languages. Consulting the Internet, the most popular package for that is accounting[0], which is almost as useless because they confuse locale with the currency’s country of origin’s “usual locale” (e.g., en-US for USD), which is also wrong: in Catalan i need to write USD prices as "1.234,56 $" regardless of what Americans do. With accounting i have the recourse of initializing the struct that holds all the “locale” information, which is also wrong because i have to define the decimal and thousands separators, something that depends only on the locale, next to the currency’s precision, that is locale-independent. But, since all CLDR data from golang.org/x/text is inside an internal package, i can not access it and would need to define all that information myself, which defeats the purpose of using an external package. Since for now i only need the format pattern for currency, i just saved it into the database of available languages, that i do not expect to grow too much. [0]: https://github.com/leekchan/accounting
