Create a new page for "Add new profile" in the SUI #9352

PankajBhojwani · 2021-03-03T00:34:47Z

Whenever we add a new profile setting from now on we have to update
Profile::CopySettings and CascadiaSettings::DuplicateProfile 👎

Notes from bug bash (checked bugs have been resolved):

The duplicate list can be very long if you have profiles
DH: "Create new" seems too vague. "New empty profile" or something
seems a little clearer to me.
There is no deduplication counter for name
Crash when your settings file is corrupt and we had to fall back
to the defaults and you duplicate a profile
Crash due to Crash in main when writing settings to disk twice #10003

PR Checklist

Closes "Add a profile" should lead to its own page #9121

screen-shoot it!

I have a lot of comments, and they're all nits, really. Only requesting changes so I can come back and check it when you've addressed my stuff. You've done a fantastic job here. Thank you so much 😊!

Definitely want @cinnamon-msft to take a look at the design (after the minor XAML changes I've suggested). It feels great!

I was originally thinking that selecting a profile to duplicate would be in a combo box, but since the page is fairly empty right now, I think this makes more sense (and changing it to a combo box is like no work, really).

I'm a little worried about some of the edge cases with duplicating profiles and the names, guids assigned 😬

+// - Duplicate a new profile based off another profile's settings
+// Return Value:
+// - a reference to the new profile
+winrt::Microsoft::Terminal::Settings::Model::Profile CascadiaSettings::DuplicateProfile(Model::Profile source)


Is there some way we could add a test for this? To maybe prevent us from forgetting this in the future?

Maybe like if we did something where we:

duplicate a profile ("A" -> "A Copy")

manually change the name of "A Copy" back to "A"

Call ToJson on both profiles and compare the results?

Just to clarify - what would be the purpose of this test? If we want to check whether duplicating is working as intended, we could just compare the profile objects themselves without calling ToJson right?

I'm not sure that a Profile actually implements any sort of logical compare with other profiles - so I was thinking the ToJson would be a handy shortcut, rather writing code that actually compares the values of each and every property.

This is more of a thought experiment so you can ignore it for now

zadjii-msft · 2021-03-15T16:49:24Z

src/cascadia/TerminalSettingsModel/CascadiaSettings.cpp

+    _allProfiles.Append(*duplicated);
+
+    const auto newName{ fmt::format(L"{} ({})", source.Name(), RS_(L"CopySuffix")) };
+    duplicated->Name(winrt::hstring(newName));


okay hear me out - what if you have two profiles already: ["A", "A Copy"]. If you duplicate "A", what happens? Two "A Copy" profiles?

Only one of the Copy profiles will show up after the user hits 'save', which is the same thing that happens if a user manually creates two profiles with the same name so I feel like it should be okay?

Should we do the thing that like, explorer (et. al) do where it's like "Foo" -> "Foo Copy" -> "Foo Copy(1)" -> "Foo Copy(2)" -> etc? Like, it seems to me that the action that's being requested by the user is "make me a new profile", so we should definitely give them a fresh one.

I suppose we could address both this and "if a user manually creates two profiles with the same name (using the UI)" at the same time in a follow up

Follow up sounds good - though I would also like some discussion before that on whether this is strictly necessary!

For the record, this is prone to a similar bug as #9714. So I see it as the same level of importance/severity as that. I agree though, something we should be aware of as a follow up. Mind filing an issue and tagging it here (heck, maybe even expand #9714 to encompass this since it'll be a similar fix?)

zadjii-msft · 2021-03-15T16:52:54Z

src/cascadia/TerminalSettingsModel/CascadiaSettings.cpp

+
+    const auto newName{ fmt::format(L"{} ({})", source.Name(), RS_(L"CopySuffix")) };
+    duplicated->Name(winrt::hstring(newName));
+


In the same vein - what do we do about the duplicated profile's guid? Do we manually assign it a fresh one?

If I manually generate the guid for a profile named "Foo Copy" (say it's {1}), and set the guid for a profile "Bar" to the guid to {1}, then duplicate "Foo", does that duplicated profile now conflict with "Bar"?

We do not manually assign any guid here, later on a guid is automatically generated for the duplicated profile from its name

Maybe we should, to avoid the (incredibly rare but absolutely possible) case from above? I think it'd be totally unexpected if you duplicated "Foo" and ended up in the settings for "Bar"

I'm not sure I agree that this is on us to solve. If we're going as far as to consider what if the user manually inputs a very specific guid that will conflict with a guid we generate, then couldn't they achieve the same thing by simply manually assigning the same guid to two different profiles in their settings file? It feels like one of those 'do bad things get bad results' that I'm not sure we should try to work around

Meh, I'm fine with that for now. Just so long as we're aware of it 😉

✏️ Contributor please read this

By default the command suggestion will generate a file named based on your commit. That's generally ok as long as you add the file to your commit. Someone can reorganize it later.

⚠️ The command is written for posix shells. You can copy the contents of each perl command excluding the outer ' marks and dropping any '"/"' quotation mark pairs into a file and then run perl file.pl from the root of the repository to run the code. Alternatively, you can manually insert the items...

If the listed items are:

... misspelled, then please correct them instead of using the command.
... names, please add them to .github/actions/spelling/dictionary/names.txt.
... APIs, you can add them to a file in .github/actions/spelling/dictionary/.
... just things you're using, please add them to an appropriate file in .github/actions/spelling/expect/.
... tokens you only need in one place and shouldn't generally be used, you can add an item in an appropriate file in .github/actions/spelling/patterns/.

See the README.md in each directory for more information.

🔬 You can test your commits without appending to a PR by creating a new branch with that extra change and pushing it to your fork. The check-spelling action will run in response to your push -- it doesn't require an open pull request. By using such a branch, you can limit the number of typos your peers see you make. 😉

🗜️ If you see a bunch of garbage and it relates to a binary-ish string, please add a file path to the .github/actions/spelling/excludes.txt file instead of just accepting the garbage.

File paths are Perl 5 Regular Expressions - you can test yours before committing to verify it will match your files.

^ refers to the file's path from the root of the repository, so ^README\.md$ would exclude README.md (on whichever branch you're using).

Pankaj- automerge this when you have fixed the name counter so that it.. doesn't say "Copy0" and looks more ergonomic (like, starting at "Copy 2" and having a space)

+            break;
+        }
+        // There is a theoretical unsigned integer wraparound, which is OK
+        newName = fmt::format(L"{} ({}{})", source.Name(), RS_(L"CopySuffix"), candidateIndex);


Won't this create Blah (Copy0)? That seems somewhat unergonomic.

You may want to use candidateIndex+2 (so that we skip "copy 1") and split the number and the copy suffix out with a space, like Blah (Copy 2)
