Improve Sidebar Menu's button and label placement

[latin-panda]

Describe the issue During exploration testing we got 2 feedback for improving the Sidebar Menu.

Describe the improvement you'd like 1.. It would be nice to be able to close the hamburger menu from the same position without having to move the cursor to the left.

• Make the clickable area of the close icon bigger, that way, we don't need to change the alignment of the close icon and other icons in the sidebar.

2.. When I chose Bamanankan (Bambara) , on Desktop, the word for messages is too long, and it needs to be cut. I think it is great that nav bar still looks the same, but I was wondering if it ok to cut the work/phrase?

• Maybe wrap the label to second line and also add ellipsis if it still doesn't fit on second line (we do this with breadcrumbs)

Mobile is okay:

Hi @latin-panda I would like to contribute to this issue if I can.

Thank you

[latin-panda]

Thanks @GallyTi. We need a quick confirmation from our designer @n-orlowski to ensure the proposed solution is okay.

@n-orlowski, are these solutions explained okay? Checking because I think you had some thoughts on the second point about long names.

Hi @latin-panda. I'm very sorry to tell you this, but I was unable to run this project locally on my computer. Neither from WSL 2, nor from a VM of Ubuntu 22.04. I can't install the dependencies. I have been trying to run this project for about 5 hours. So I apologize, but unfortunately I can't participate in this project.

The main problem was with installing dependencies via: npm ci --legacy-peer-deps where I obtained 51 vulnerabilities

when running npm run build-dev I get an error message: "

[email protected] build-dev ./scripts/build/build-prepare.sh && npm run -- prefix shared-libs/cht-datasource build & & npm run build-webapp-dev && ./scripts/build/copy-static-files.sh

Even when i was trying to install these dependencies i was not able to run this project localy.

@GallyTi, sorry to hear about the problems, I appreciate your efforts in setting up the environment. I would like to understand the issues better:

1. What version of NodeJs and NPM have you installed? We recommend using NodeJS 20 and npm 10
2. Can you try running npm ci in the root folder of CHT? It will show many warnings and vulnerabilities but should not show errors. For example, this is my output after running the command:

3. If after running the command, errors show. Please post the screenshot here; then we can help assess the problem further

EDIT 1: So i thought about clean install. So i removed cht-core and downloaded it again, after running right commends it looks like it is working, so yes it was a error on my side. But i don't know why I was getting those errors, because, when i was trying it first, i had a version 20 of node. After i was trying to install everything i asked a chatgpt, and he replied to downgrading a node.js so really. I don't know what happened.

So after reinstalling it is working properly

EDIT 2: When i was trying to run cht-core from fresh in WSL2 and Ubuntu, I do get this error when running npm ci --legacy-peer-deps:

Node.js v20.18.0

Old message: Yes, as you mentioned, i was on old Version of node.js 12.22.29.

So after updating a node.js to version 20.18.0 and npm on version:10.8.2

So then i run npm ci --legacy-peer-deps in ~/cht-core which resulted to install some deppendencies BUT:

As you can see the npm ci gives me this:

And when i tried to run a npm run build-dev I do get this:

So any recommendation? Thank you 😄

[latin-panda]

So i thought about clean install. So i removed cht-core and downloaded it again, after running right commends it looks like it is working, so yes it was a error on my side. But i don't know why I was getting those errors, because, when i was trying it first, i had a version 20 of node. After i was trying to install everything i asked a chatgpt, and he replied to downgrading a node.js so really. I don't know what happened.

So after reinstalling it is working properly

@GallyTi Thanks for trying it out again, I'm glad it's working now. Looking at the logs you shared, this piece seems suspicious:

> npm error npm warn old lockfile The package-lock.json file was created with an old version of npm,
> npm error npm warn old lockfile so supplemental metadata must be fetched from the registry.

CHT has its own package-lock.js, which is very important because it ensures the installation of dependencies with the correct version by using npm ci command. At some point, something seemed to create a package-lock.json with an old version producing those errors; in most cases, this error is produced by something running npm install command. Removing node_modules folders, reverting any change in any of the CHT's package.json and package-lock.js files and then running npm ci in the root folder usually fixes that error.

[GallyTi]

So, i tried to install it as you described, and fully clean install, where i will attach 2 txt files with full terminal. Both of them are unsuccessful. So solution for windows is not working, i mean on my machine. Without opening these files you can see same problem for nstalling-cht-core-on-ubuntu-windows-log-from-terminal.txt ass you mentioned.

installing-cht-core-without-package-lock-json.txt installing-cht-core-on-ubuntu-windows-log-from-terminal.txt

Btw, i can work on these changes in this issue, so i will wait for response from your designer. Thanks, for your support and sorry for troubles... @latin-panda :)

Hi both, and thanks @GallyTi for picking this up!

For the first improvement my recommendation would be to match the alignment of the "X" to the hamburger icon and subsequently left align the icons below it when the drawer is open (instead of making the clickable area larger)

For the second improvement, best practice is to keep navigation levels to one line but as we are designing for flexibility I'm ok with the proposed solution (two lines plus elipses), however we should encourage projects to use shorter label text where possible

[GallyTi]

Okay, you can assignee this to me. I will try to improve this, and as soon as i will have a solution for this i will provide it by screenshots.

[latin-panda]

Thanks @GallyTi for picking this up! You can find documentation that can help you get started .

If you have any questions, let us know!

[GallyTi]

Hi @latin-panda and @n-orlowski. So i made these changes, as you requested: As you mentioned I made a two lines plus ellipses

For the first solution, I have made as close as unopened state, so the Close button is same width and same clickable size as burger menu. Also i have made the adjustments for the menu items so they align properly with close button.

Same changes for mobile menu, where it is aligned to burger menu:

If you have anything to change tell me, i will make a pull request.

[ghost]

Thanks @GallyTi ! The double lines in the side nav looks great 🎉 The menu title and text in the drawer is a little far from their corresponding icons, can we keep the original spacing? 🙏

[GallyTi]

Hi, @n-orlowski. So I've made the changes you requested. For now it look like this:

The mobile menu:

The Desktop menu:

Is it good, or? Thank you :) I have achieved that by using -15px margin left for text, so we can have the icon at the same position.

[ghost]

Looks good to me! Thanks for your help @GallyTi 💪

[latin-panda]

@GallyTi I'll be reviewing your PR tomorrow 🤩

[latin-panda]

@GallyTi Thanks for contributing to this feature. Your code has been merged! 🤩

@lorerod this will be part of v4.14

[GallyTi]

Thank you guys for this opportunity 🤩
