feat(fp): WP-07 — brief on the shared idioms + RemoteData MDX
Collapse brief.store's busy signal + nullable lastError into one Idle | Busy | Failed union (saveState gets matching tag-object style), and route brief.page's load through RemoteData + <app-async> instead of a hand-rolled @switch, via a BriefStore.remoteData projection of the machine's existing loading/failed tags -- the machine keeps owning the letter's own status lifecycle untouched. New brief.store.spec.ts covers the Busy->Idle/Failed transitions; new Foundations/RemoteData & Async MDX page documents the pattern and the WP-06 typed-loaded-slot fallback. Deviation from the original plan recorded in the WP file.

# RemoteData & Async
|
||||
|
||||
An async fetch has exactly four states: still loading, loaded-but-empty, failed, or
|
||||
loaded-with-a-value. Modeling that as `loading`/`error`/`data` booleans permits nonsense
|
||||
combinations ("loading **and** error", "data **and** error" — which one does the UI
|
||||
believe?). `src/app/shared/application/remote-data.ts` closes that off with one tagged
|
||||
union instead:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
type RemoteData<E, T> = { tag: 'Loading' } | { tag: 'Empty' } | { tag: 'Failure'; error: E } | { tag: 'Success'; value: T };
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Combining sources
|
||||
|
||||
Two or more independent fetches often need to render as ONE state (e.g. a registration
|
||||
call and a BRP call feeding the same page). `map`/`map2`/`map3`/`andThen` combine them
|
||||
with one precedence rule: **Failure beats Loading beats Empty beats Success** — if either
|
||||
source failed, the combined result is a failure; only when every source succeeded do you
|
||||
get a combined value.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
map2(registration, person, (reg, p) => ({ registration: reg, person: p }));
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Rendering it: `<app-async>`
|
||||
|
||||
<Canvas of={AsyncStories.Loading} />
|
||||
<Canvas of={AsyncStories.ErrorState} />
|
||||
|
||||
`shared/ui/async` renders exactly one of the four templates — never two at once, by
|
||||
construction, since the component switches on the union's tag. Feed it either:
|
||||
|
||||
- **`[resource]`** — a raw Angular `resource()` (the common case; the component projects
|
||||
it into a `RemoteData` internally via `fromResource`), or
|
||||
- **`[data]`** — an already-combined `RemoteData` (e.g. from a store's `computed()` using
|
||||
`map`/`map2`).
|
||||
|
||||
The default loading UI is a spinner, delay-gated (~250ms) so a fast response never
|
||||
flashes it; override with an `appAsyncLoading` template. `appAsyncEmpty` and
|
||||
`appAsyncError` are likewise optional — omit them and you get a sensible default (a
|
||||
"geen gegevens" message / an alert with a retry button).
|
||||
|
||||
## The `appAsyncLoaded` slot isn't generically typed to your value
|
||||
|
||||
This is a real Angular constraint, not an oversight: a structural directive's type
|
||||
parameter can only be inferred from an **input bound on that same element** (this is how
|
||||
`*ngFor="let x of items"` and `*ngIf="x as y"` work — the type comes from `ngForOf`/`ngIf`,
|
||||
inputs on the very same tag). `<ng-template appAsyncLoaded let-p>` sits on a *different*
|
||||
node than `<app-async [data]="…">`, so `p` cannot inherit a type from that sibling input,
|
||||
even though they're nested in the same template. Angular types it `unknown`, and
|
||||
`ngTemplateContextGuard` can't fix that without an input to seed it from — the shared
|
||||
`AsyncComponent`/`AsyncLoadedDirective` pair is properly generic internally, but that
|
||||
genericity stops at the component's own boundary.
|
||||
|
||||
The idiom this repo uses instead — see `brief.page.ts`, `dashboard.page.ts`,
|
||||
`registration-detail.page.ts` — is a small **typed `computed()`** that unwraps the
|
||||
`Success` value, narrowed locally in the template with `@if (x(); as p)`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// in the component class
|
||||
protected readonly loaded = computed(() => {
|
||||
const s = this.model(); // or store.someRemoteData()
|
||||
return s.tag === 'loaded' ? s : undefined;
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<!-- in the template, inside <ng-template appAsyncLoaded> -->
|
||||
@if (loaded(); as s) {
|
||||
<app-letter-composer [brief]="s.brief" ... />
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
No `$any()`, no cast — `loaded()` is a real, checked `T | undefined`, and `@if (…; as s)`
|
||||
narrows it the same way any other nullable signal would.
|
||||
|
||||
## The `?scenario=` dev toggle
|
||||
|
||||
Any data page can be forced through all four states without touching the backend:
|
||||
`?scenario=slow|loading|empty|error` (dev-only, `scenario.interceptor.ts`) rewrites the
|
||||
timing/outcome of `/api/*` calls. Try it on `/brief` or `/dashboard`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Where the fetch ends and the domain begins
|
||||
|
||||
A store's own state machine (its `*.machine.ts`) should own the **domain** lifecycle of
|
||||
what it holds (draft → submitted → approved, in the brief's case) — not the network
|
||||
fetch's loading/failure, which is a generic concern `RemoteData` already models. Where a
|
||||
machine's own `loading`/`failed` tags purely mirror the fetch (nothing extra beyond "not
|
||||
loaded yet" / "the GET failed"), project them onto a `RemoteData` computed at the store
|
||||
layer for `<app-async>` to render, the way `BriefStore.remoteData` does — the machine
|
||||
keeps deciding what the *letter* is doing, `RemoteData` keeps deciding what the *fetch* is
|
||||
doing.
