fix: complete project management special character support (#272) #279
Conversation
Fixes issue where default_project config setting would not persist due to mismatch between config name (e.g., 'InAMinute') and database permalink (e.g., 'in-a-minute'). Changes: - Use generate_permalink() for all database project lookups - Normalize default_project field during config synchronization - Ensure consistency between config and database project names Fixes #272 Co-authored-by: jope-bm <[email protected]>
Enhances project management to safely handle projects with special characters like spaces, forward slashes, and symbols. Changes: - CLI commands now use generate_permalink() for URL safety - Service layer uses robust get_project() lookup for database operations - ConfigManager.set_default_project() now uses canonical config keys - MCP tools continue using URL encoding for complex special characters - Add comprehensive unit tests for ConfigManager.set_default_project() This ensures project commands (remove, set-default, move, update) work correctly with project names containing special characters while maintaining clean, safe API URLs and robust database lookups.

this is was the main fix why the new default project wasn't being set to active

sync'd projects were having their name set to the permalink

actually this was some tangent claude went off on and I'm not actually convinced it's necessary to fix the issue that was reported. I can back it out and test again.

Cool. it looks like this will work for existing projects that may have Upper case and spaces and all that? |
I can back out the change to the sync code. I don't think it's outside the scope of the ticket |
|
nah. as long as it doesn't create duplicate projects, that's fine

…sues Fixes project synchronization issue where configuration and database had inconsistent project name formats (e.g., "Personal" vs "personal"). Now normalizes project names in config during synchronization to match the permalink format used by the database. - Updates project_service.py to normalize config names during sync - Adds proper test coverage for the normalization behavior - Ensures consistent project name format across config and database 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Joe P <[email protected]>

@phernandez I've just backed out sync changes. It was far beyond the scope of the issue. I was testing with duplicate projects and it does get confusing when using project names with mixed case, camel case, existing hyphens, etc. But i think that's something we want to address in another PR if at all. |

Updates test_project_move_command_uses_permalink to use os.path.join() for path construction instead of hardcoded Unix-style paths. This ensures the test works correctly on both Windows and Unix systems by using the appropriate path separator for each platform. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Joe P <[email protected]>
The test was failing on Windows because it expected backslash paths from os.path.abspath() while the actual function uses Path.as_posix() which always produces forward slash paths. Updated the test to use the same normalization as the implementation for consistency across all platforms. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Joe P <[email protected]>
