E1570. Refactoring TreeDisplayController

This page provides a description of the Expertiza based OSS project. This project aimed at refactoring the TreeDisplayController.

Introduction to Expertiza

Expertiza is a web application where students can submit and peer-review learning objects (articles, code, web sites, etc). The Expertiza project is supported by the National Science Foundation.<ref>Expertiza</ref><ref>Wiki</ref>

Problem Statement

Classes involved:

tree_display_controller.rb

Controller Responsibilities: This controller deals with displaying “trees” of objects to the instructor. When an instructor logs in, (s)he is greeted with a homepage that lists questionnaires (rubrics, quizzes, surveys), courses, and assignments. These objects are displayed in a “tree,” allowing the user to click on the top-level object and see the objects beneath it.

Bad practices followed:

Many Duplicate Methods.
Very Long Methods combining many Functionalities.
Redundant methods not being used anywhere.

Refactoring to be done:

Split get_children_node_ng and get_children_node_2_ng into smaller methods and give reasonable names to them and make sure implement common code in a single method.
Merge all the repeating methods into a single method.
Write functional tests for the TreeDispayController.
Remove commented code in list method.

Changes Made

We used the DRY principle while refactoring our code to remove duplicates in get_children_node_ng and get_children_node_2_ng methods.

TreeDisplayController

Method Name	Changes Made	Reason For Change
goto_questionnaires, goto_review_rubrics, goto_metareview_rubrics, goto_teammatereview_rubrics, goto_author_feedbacks, goto_global_survey, goto_surveys, goto_course_evaluations, goto_courses, goto_assignments	All these methods were merged into a single method with name go_to_menu_items which receives a parameter of the name of tree_folder object, such as "Questionnaires".	Since all the methods were performing the same action, i.e passing the node object id to list method in TreeDisplayController, the name is passed a parameter to the go_to_menu_items method from "link" method in MenuItemsController. Using this parameter the respective object and its ID are found and is redirected to "list" method.
get_children_node_ng	Moved part of the code from these methods to newly created methods: populate_rows,populate_1_row,page_render methods.	These Methods had many functionalities being implemented which made the method look lengthy and moreover these methods were performing almost similar functions which could be grouped together and reduce the overall code length.
get_children_node_2_ng

MenuItemsController

Method Name	Changes Made	Reason For Change
link	Redirect url only for the menu_items altered in TreeDisplayController is changed to go_to_menu_items_url.	Since the 10 methods had been merged into one method in TreeDisplayController, the redirect url is set to go_to_menu_items url.

How to test the changes from UI

Login in as an instructor or admin using credentials (admin with password: admin or instructor6 with password: password)
To check the changes made in go_to_menu_items method, hover over the Manage tab in the navigation bar on the top and click all the links and check whether they are being redirected to correct pages. For example, if Questionnaires is clicked, you should be | redirected directly to the page displaying all the questionnaires with its sub-categories like Reviews, Surveys etc.
To test the changes made in get_children_node_ng and get_children_node_2_ng methods, click on the sub categories under each of the parent tree displays (Courses, Assignments and Questionnaires) and all of them will further expand to show the details. (Click on the name of the Course/Asignment/Questionnaire to expand them)

  end

Common Methods Added to get_children_node_ng and get_children_node_2_ng controllers

populate_rows

This is a new Common Method for both get_children_node_ng and get_children_node_2_ng that does the functionality of rendering a page with data from all nodes by calling another method populate_1_row(). There is another Method call that happens in this method which as a whole renders the List View.

  def populate_rows(list,call_function) #render page with data for all nodes in list
    if call_function == "get_children_node_ng"
      tmpRes ={}
      tmpRes = list
      res = {}
       for nodeType in tmpRes.keys
        # declaring a new array
        res[nodeType] =  Array.new
        for node in tmpRes[nodeType]
          res[nodeType] << populate_1_row(node)
        end
       end

    else
      tmpRes = list
      res = []
      if tmpRes
        for child in tmpRes
          res_node = {}
          res_node = populate_1_row(child)
          res_node["key"] = params[:reactParams2][:key]
          res << res_node
        end
      end
    end
    page_render(res)
  end

populate_1_row

'This is a new Method that is called from Method populate_row() and fetches all the child node names from respective Controller actions and then populates the tmpObject.

  def populate_1_row(node) #return JSON for 1 Node
    tmpObject = {}
    tmpObject["nodeinfo"] = node
    # all the child nodes names got and put in tmpObject from respective controller actions
    tmpObject["name"] = node.get_name
    tmpObject["type"] = node.type
    if node.type == 'CourseNode' || node.type == "AssignmentNode"
      tmpObject["directory"] = node.get_directory
      tmpObject["creation_date"] = node.get_creation_date
      tmpObject["updated_date"] = node.get_modified_date
      tmpObject["private"] = node.get_private
      instructor_id = node.get_instructor_id
      tmpObject["instructor_id"] = instructor_id
      unless (instructor_id.nil?)
        tmpObject["instructor"] = User.find(instructor_id).name
      else
        tmpObject["instructor"] = nil
      end

      tmpObject["is_available"] = is_available(session[:user], instructor_id) || (session[:user].role_id == 6 && Ta.get_my_instructors(session[:user].id).include?(instructor_id) && ta_for_current_course?(node))
      if node.type == "AssignmentNode"
        tmpObject["course_id"] = node.get_course_id
        tmpObject["max_team_size"] = node.get_max_team_size
        tmpObject["is_intelligent"] = node.get_is_intelligent
        tmpObject["require_quiz"] = node.get_require_quiz
        tmpObject["allow_suggestions"] = node.get_allow_suggestions
        tmpObject["has_topic"] = SignUpTopic.where(['assignment_id = ?', node.node_object_id]).first ? true : false
      end
    end
    tmpObject
  end

page_render

This is also a common Method which integrates the rendering functionality of get_children_node_ng and get_children_node_2_ng making sure both levels are properly populated in the view.'

  def page_render(list) # Common Render Functionality for get_children_node_ng and get_children_node_2_ng methods
    respond_to do |format|
      format.html {render json: list}
    end
  end

Method Removal

There was a Method which dint have any Routes defined in the Routes.rb file and was not called in any of the Controller . After Careful analysis we descided to remove the method from the tree Display Controller.

filter

  def filter
    search = params[:filter_string]
    filter_node = params[:filternode]
    qid = 'filter+'

    if filter_node == 'QAN'
      assignment = Assignment.find_by_name(search)
      if assignment
        assignment_questionnaires = AssignmentQuestionnaire.where(assignment_id: assignment.id)
        if assignment_questionnaires
          assignment_questionnaires.each { |q|  qid << "#{q.questionnaire_id.to_s}+" }
          session[:root] = 1
        end
      end
    elsif filter_node == 'ACN'
      session[:root] = 2
      qid <<  search
    end
    return qid
  end

-'''What they do:'''
+'''Controller Responsibilities:'''
 This controller deals with displaying “trees” of objects to the instructor.  When an instructor logs in, (s)he is greeted with a homepage that lists questionnaires (rubrics, quizzes, surveys), courses, and assignments.  These objects are displayed in a “tree,” allowing the user to click on the top-level object and see the objects beneath it.
-'''What's wrong with it:'''
+'''Bad practices followed:'''
 * Many Duplicate Methods.
 * Very Long Methods combining many Functionalities.
 * Redundant methods not being used anywhere.
-'''What needs to be done:'''
+'''Refactoring to be done:'''
 #   Split  <font face=Courier New>get_children_node_ng </font> and <font face=Courier New>get_children_node_2_ng </font> into smaller methods and give reasonable names to them and make sure implement common code in a single method.
+#   Merge  all the repeating methods into a single method.
+#   Write functional tests for the TreeDispayController.
+#   Remove commented code in list method.
+=Changes Made=
-=Changes Made=
+We used the DRY principle while refactoring our code to remove duplicates in get_children_node_ng and get_children_node_2_ng methods.

-==Moving code to the proper place==
+==Common Methods Added to get_children_node_ng and get_children_node_2_ng controllers ==
-The ResponseController allows the user to create and edit responses to questionnaires, in doing so, there needs to be some sort of authentication, and the proper place for that is in the action_allowed? method, however the un-refactored code did in the redirect_when_disallowed method. Moreover, once this code was moved to the action_allowed? method, all of the references to redirect_when_disallowed were removed (action_allowed? gets called automatically).
+===populate_rows ===
+This is a new Common Method for both get_children_node_ng and get_children_node_2_ng  that does the functionality of rendering a page with data from all nodes by calling another method populate_1_row(). There is another Method call that happens in this method which as a whole renders the List View.

-==Moving get_scores to the Response Model==
+This is also a common Method which integrates the rendering functionality of get_children_node_ng and get_children_node_2_ng making sure both levels are properly populated in the view.'
-The get_scores method was being implemented in the controller. Its function fits better in the model.
-As such, the method was moved and changed to retain the functionality of code that uses it. Since the variables it requires were no longer in scope, they're passed in as arguments. Also due to scope, the result has to be explicitly returned.

-==Removing special code in rereview method==
+==Removing duplicate methods==
-The rereview method had some special code to check if the current user is jace_smith and uses a custom hard-coded rubric instead of a rubric from the system. This was a code segment that was written when multipart rubrics were first tested. Removing this code will break the assignment and so the code was moved to a separate method and commented as a kludge.
