@title[#:tag "cache-rkt"]{Cache}

@defmodule["cache.rkt" #:packages ()]

In this project there are several places – the blog, the footer on each page, the RSS feed, series
pages — where data from an amorphous group of Pollen documents is needed. This is what the cache is
for.

This module defines and provides the schema and database connection to the SQLite cache, and some
functions for retrieving records from the cache. Use these when you need quick access to pre-cooked
HTML.

@section{Cache database}

@defthing[cache-conn connection?]{
The database connection.
}

@defproc[(init-cache-db!) void?]{
Creates and initializes the SQLite database cache file (named @filepath{vitreous.sqlite} and located
in the project root folder) by running queries to create tables in the database if they do not
exist.

This function is called automatically in @seclink["pollen-rkt"]{@filepath{pollen.rkt}} whenever HTML
is the target output. }

@defparam[current-plain-title title-plain non-empty-string? #:value "void"]{
Contains (or sets) the “plain” title (i.e., with no HTML markup) for the current article based on
analysis done by @racket[parse-and-cache-article!]. If the article did not specify a title,
a default title is supplied. If the article contained a @racket[note] that used the
@code{#:disposition} attribute, the disposition-mark may be included in the title.

This is a weird parameter, and at some point I will probably get rid of it and have
@racket[parse-and-cache-article!] supply it as an extra return value instead.

@margin-note{Note that this needs to be called @emph{after} @racket[parse-and-cache-article!] in
order to get an up-to-date value.}
}

@section{Retrieving cached data}

Some of this looks a little wacky, but it’s a case of putting a little extra complextity into the
back end to make things simple on the front end. These functions are most commonly used inside the
@emph{body} of a Pollen document (i.e., series pages). 

@filebox["series/my-series.poly.pm"
@codeblock|{
#lang pollen

◊title{My New Series}

...some other content

◊(<listing-excerpt> articles+notes #:order 'asc)
}|
]

@deftogether[(@defproc[(<listing-full> 
                                 [query-func (-> any/c query?)]
                                 [#:series series (or/c string? (listof string?) boolean?) #t]
                                 [#:limit limit integer? -1]
                                 [order stringish? 'desc]) txexpr?]
              @defproc[(<listing-excerpt>
                                 [query-func (-> any/c query?)]
                                 [#:series series (or/c string? (listof string?) boolean?) #t]
                                 [#:limit limit integer? -1]
                                 [order stringish? 'desc]) txexpr?]
              @defproc[(<listing-short>
                                 [query-func (-> any/c query?)]
                                 [#:series series (or/c string? (listof string?) boolean?) #t]
                                 [#:limit limit integer? -1]
                                 [order stringish? 'desc]) txexpr?])]{
Fetches the HTML for items from the SQLite cache, concatenates their HTML strings and returns
a @racket['style] tagged X-expression with this string as its element. The items will be ordered by
publish date according to @racket[_order] and optionally limited to the series specified in
@racket[_series].

The @racket[_query-func] should be either @racket[articles], which will create a listing of articles
only, or @racket[articles+notes], which will include notes intermingled with articles.

@margin-note{Note that the signature shown for the @racket[_query-func] argument above is
incomplete. If you choose to pass a function other than @racket[articles] or
@racket[articles+notes], you must use a function with exactly the same signature as those
functions.}

If @racket[_series] expression evaluates to @racket[#f], articles will not be filtered by series. If
it evaluates to @racket[#t] (the default), articles will be filtered by those that specify the
current output of @racket[here-output-path] in their @tt{series_pagenode} column in the SQLite
cache. If a string is supplied, articles will be filtered by those containing that exact value in
their @tt{series_pagenode} column in the SQLite cache.

The @racket[_order] expression must evaluate to either @racket["ASC"] or @racket["DESC"] and the
@racket[_limit] expressions must evaluate to a value suitable for use in the @tt{LIMIT} clause of
@ext-link["https://sqlite.org/lang_select.html"]{a SQLite @tt{SELECT} statement}. An expression that
evaluates to a negative integer (the default) is the same as having no limit.

The reason for enclosing the results in a @racket['style] txexpr is to prevent the HTML from being
escaped by @racket[->html] in the template. This tag was picked for the job because there will
generally never be a need to include any actual CSS information inside a @tt{<style>} tag in any
page, so it can be safely filtered out later. To remove the enclosing @tt{<style>} tag, see
@racket[unfence].
}

@defproc[(listing-htmls [listing-query query?]) (listof string?)]{
Returns the HTML bodies for the articles and/or notes returned by @racket[_listing-query] as a list
of strings.
}

@deftogether[(@defproc[(articles [type (or/c 'full 'excerpt 'short)]
                                 [#:series series (or/c string? (listof string?) boolean?) #t]
                                 [#:limit limit integer? -1]
                                 [order stringish? 'desc]) query?]
              @defproc[(articles+notes [type (or/c 'full 'excerpt 'short)]
                                       [#:series series (or/c string? (listof string?) boolean?) #t]
                                       [#:limit limit integer? -1]
                                       [order stringish? 'desc]) query?])]{
Create a query that fetches either articles only (@racket[articles]) or articles and notes
intermingled (@racket[articles+notes]), sorted by publish date and optionally limited to
a particular series.

Typically you will pass these functions by name to listing functions like @racket[<listing-full>]
rather than calling them directly.

@examples[#:eval example-eval
(articles 'full)]
}

@defproc[(unfence [html string?]) string?]{
Returns @racket[_html] with all occurrences of @racket["<style>"] and @racket["</style>"] removed.
The contents of the style tags are left intact.

Use this in templates with strings returned from @racket[->html] when called on docs that use the
@racket[<listing-full>] tag function or its siblings. }

@defproc[(series-grouped-list) (listof (listof cache:series?))]{
Return a list of lists of all @racket[cache:series] in the cache database. The series are grouped so
that series using the same value in the @tt{noun-plural} column appear together.}

@section{Deleting records}

@deftogether[(@defproc[(delete-article! [page stringish?]) void?]
              @defproc[(delete-notes!   [page stringish?]) void?])]{
Delete a particular article, or all notes for a particular article, respectively.
}

@section{Schema}

The cache database has four tables: @tt{articles}, @tt{notes}, @tt{index_entries} and @tt{series}. Each of these has a corresponding schema, shown below. In addition, there is a “virtual” schema, @tt{listing}, for use with queries which may or may not combine articles and notes intermingled.

The work of picking apart an article’s exported @tt{doc} and @tt{metas} into rows in these tables is done by @racket[parse-and-cache-article!].

The below are shown as @code{struct} forms but are actually defined with deta’s @racket[define-schema]. Each schema has an associated struct with the same name and a smart constructor called @tt{make-@emph{id}}. The struct’s “dumb” constructor is hidden so that invalid entities cannot be created. For every defined field there is an associated functional setter and updater named @tt{set-@emph{id}-field} and @tt{update-@emph{id}-field}, respectively.

@defstruct*[cache:article ([id                   id/f]
                           [page                 symbol/f]

@defmodule["crystalize.rkt" #:packages ()]

“Crystalizing” is an extra layer in between docs and templates that destructures the doc and stores
it in various pieces in a SQLite cache. Individual articles save chunks of rendered HTML to the
cache when their individual pages are rendered. When pulling together listings of articles in
different contexts that need to be filtered and sorted, a SQL query is much faster than trolling
through the Pollen cache for matching docs and regenerating the HTML.

@defproc[(init-cache-db!) void?]

Initializes the SQLite database cache file (named @filepath{vitreous.sqlite} and located in the
project root folder) by running queries to create tables in the database if they do not exist. (The
file itself is created at the module level.)

This function is called automatically in @filepath{pollen.rkt} whenever HTML is the target output.

@defproc[(parse-and-cache-article! [pagenode pagenode?] [doc txexpr?]) non-empty-string?]

Returns a string containing the HTML of @racket[_doc]. @margin-note{This is one function that breaks
my convention of using a prefix of @tt{html$-} for functions that return a single string of HTML.}

Privately, it does a lot of other work. The article is analyzed, additional metadata is constructed,
and it is saved to the SQLite cache. If the article specifies a @racket['series] meta, information
about that series is fetched and used in the rendering of the article. If there are @racket[note]s
in the doc, they are parsed and saved individually to the SQLite cache. If any of the notes use the
@code{#:disposition} attribute, information about the disposition is parsed out and used in the
rendering of the article.

@deftogether[(@defproc[(<listing-full> 
                                 [query-func (-> any/c query?)]
                                 [#:series series (or/c string? (listof string? boolean?)) #t]
                                 [#:limit limit integer? -1]
                                 [order stringish? 'desc]) txexpr?]
              @defproc[(<listing-excerpt>
                                 [query-func (-> any/c query?)]
                                 [#:series series (or/c string? (listof string? boolean?)) #t]
                                 [#:limit limit integer? -1]
                                 [order stringish? 'desc]) txexpr?]
              @defproc[(<listing-short>
                                 [query-func (-> any/c query?)]
                                 [#:series series (or/c string? (listof string? boolean?)) #t]
                                 [#:limit limit integer? -1]
                                 [order stringish? 'desc]) txexpr?])]

Fetches the HTML for items from the SQLite cache and returns the HTML strings fenced inside
a @racket['style] tagged X-expression. The items will be ordered by publish date according to
@racket[_order] and optionally limited to the series specified in @racket[_series].

The @racket[_query-func] should be either @racket[articles], which will create a listing of articles
only, or @racket[articles+notes], which will include notes intermingled with articles.

@margin-note{Note that the signature shown for the @racket[_query-func] argument above is
incomplete. If you choose to pass a function other than @racket[articles] or
@racket[articles+notes], you must use a function with exactly the same signature as those
functions.}

If @racket[_series] expression evaluates to @racket[#f], articles will not be filtered by series. If
it evaluates to @racket[#t] (the default), articles will be filtered by those that specify the
current output of @racket[here-output-path] in their @tt{series_pagenode} column in the SQLite
cache. If a string is supplied, articles will be filtered by those containing that exact value in
their @tt{series_pagenode} column in the SQLite cache.

The @racket[_order] expression must evaluate to either @racket["ASC"] or @racket["DESC"] and the
@racket[_limit] expressions must evaluate to a value suitable for use in the @tt{LIMIT} clause of
@ext-link["https://sqlite.org/lang_select.html"]{a SQLite @tt{SELECT} statement}. An expression that
evaluates to a negative integer (the default) is the same as having no limit.

The reason for enclosing the results in a @racket['style] txexpr is to prevent the HTML from being
escaped by @racket[->html] in the template. This tag was picked for the job because there will
generally never be a need to include any actual CSS information inside a @tt{<style>} tag in any
page, so it can be safely filtered out later. To remove the enclosing @tt{<style>} tag, see
@racket[unfence].

@deftogether[(@defproc[(articles [type (or/c 'full 'excerpt 'short)]
                                 [#:series series (or/c string? (listof string? boolean?)) #t]
                                 [#:limit limit integer? -1]
                                 [order stringish? 'desc]) query?]
              @defproc[(articles+notes [type (or/c 'full 'excerpt 'short)]
                                       [#:series series (or/c string? (listof string? boolean?)) #t]
                                       [#:limit limit integer? -1]
                                       [order stringish? 'desc]) query?])]

Create a query that fetches either articles only (@racket[articles]) or articles and notes
intermingled (@racket[articles+notes]), sorted by publish date and optionally limited to
a particular series.

Typically you will pass these functions by name to listing functions like @racket[<listing-full>]
rather than calling them directly.

@defproc[(unfence [html string?]) string?]

Returns @racket[_html] with all occurrences of @racket["<style>"] and @racket["</style>"] removed.
The contents of the style tags are left intact.

Use this with strings returned from @racket[->html] when called on docs that use the
@racket[<listing-full>] tag function or its siblings.

@defparam[current-plain-title non-empty-string? #:value "void"]

Contains (or sets) the “plain” title (i.e., with no HTML markup) for the current article based on
analysis done by @racket[parse-and-cache-article!]. If the article did not specify a title,
a default title is supplied. If the article contained a @racket[note] that used the
@code{#:disposition} attribute, the disposition-mark may be included in the title.

Note that this needs to be called @emph{after} @racket[parse-and-cache-article!] in order to get an
up-to-date value.

here I have other modules sitting “behind” that one in the @tt{require} chain.

@section{Article parsers and helpers}

@defparam[listing-context ctxt (or/c 'blog 'feed 'print "") #:value ""]

A parameter specifying the current context where any listings of articles would appear. Its purpose
is to allow articles to exclude themselves from certain special collections (e.g., the blog, the RSS
feed, print editions). Any article whose @code{conceal} meta matches the current context will not be
included in any listings returned by the listing functions in
@seclink["cache-rkt"]{@filepath{cache.rkt}}.

@defproc[(default-title [body-txprs (listof txexpr?)]) string?]

Given a list of tagged X-expressions (the elements of an article’s doc, e.g.), returns a string
containing a suitable title for the document. (Uses @racket[first-words].)

Titles are not required for articles, but there are contexts where you need something that
serves as a title if one is not present, and that’s what this function supplies.

@title[#:tag "pollen-rkt"]{@filepath{pollen.rkt}}
@title[#:tag "pollen-rkt"]{Pollen}

@defmodule["pollen.rkt" #:packages ()]

The file @filepath{pollen.rkt} is implicitly @code{require}d in every template and every @code{#lang
pollen} file in the project. It defines the markup for all Pollen documents, and also re-provides
everything provided by @code{crystalize.rkt}.
everything provided by @filepath{cache.rkt} and @filepath{crystalize.rkt}.

The @code{setup} module towards the top of the file is used as described in
@racketmodname[pollen/setup].

@section{Defining new tags}

I use a couple of macros to define tag functions that automatically branch into other functions
depending on the current output target format. This allows me to put the format-specific tag
functions in separate files that have separate places in the dependency chain. So if only the HTML
tag functions have changed and not those for PDF, the makefile can ensure only the HTML files are
rebuilt.

@defproc[#:kind "syntax"
 (poly-branch-tag (tag-id symbol?))
 (-> txexpr?)]

Defines a new function @racket[_tag-id] which will automatically pass all of its arguments to a
function whose name is the value returned by @racket[current-poly-target], followed by a hyphen,
followed by @racket[_tag]. So whenever the current output format is @racket['html], the function
defined by @racket[(poly-branch-tag _p)] will branch to a function named @racket[html-p]; when the
current format is @racket['pdf], it will branch to @racket[pdf-p], and so forth.

You @emph{must} define these branch functions separately, and you must define one for @emph{every}
output format included in the definition of @racket[poly-targets] in this file’s @racket[setup]
submodule. If you do not, you will get “unbound identifier” errors at expansion time.

The convention in this project is to define and provide these branch functions in separate files:
see, e.g., @filepath{tags-html.rkt}.

Functions defined with this macro @emph{do not} accept keyword arguments. If you need keyword
arguments, see @racket[poly-branch-kwargs-tag].

@margin-note{The thought behind having two macros so similar is that, by cutting out handling for keyword
arguments, @racket[poly-branch-tag] could produce simpler and faster code. I have not verified if
this intuition is meaningful or correct.}

@defproc[#:kind "syntax"
         (poly-branch-kwargs-tag (tag-id symbol?))
         (-> txexpr?)]

Works just like @racket[poly-branch-tag], but uses Pollen’s @racket[define-tag-function] so that
keyword arguments will automatically be parsed as X-expression attributes.

Additionally, the branch functions called from the new function must accept exactly two arguments:
a list of attributes and a list of elements.

@section{Markup reference}

These are the tags that can be used in any of @italic{The Local Yarn}’s Pollen documents (articles,
etc).
