Status of https://betamasaheft.eu/additions page

[DrRataplan]

Hey!

While refactoring things to make the Betamasaheft app work in Exist db 6 (and higher) I ran into some slow and sometimes failing E2E tests in the additions page. This page is technically still alive, it's mentioned in the controller.xql routing, but the sole entrypoint in the app (

BetMas/db/apps/BetMasWeb/modules/nav.xqm

Line 346 in 9f07fdc

See also <a href="https://betamasaheft.eu/additions">the list of documents contained in the additiones</a> in the manuscripts described by the Beta maṣāḥǝft project .

) is not in use since the menu item it's an explanation for is commented out (

BetMas/db/apps/BetMasWeb/modules/nav.xqm

Line 312 in 9f07fdc

removing link to resource which is currently not maintained

)

@eu-genia Is this whole page unused? If so, I'll remove the Cypress tests for it.

Thanks!

The page should be used but is part of our loading times issue set
BetaMasaheft/Documentation#1944
https://github.com/BetaMasaheft/betmas-e2e/issues/5

Same for many filtered searches.
Still the link is active from resources navigation menu and from the homepage

• and right now I could open the page.
  

We count very much on your help that the loading times for this and other similar pages - as well as the other

[eu-genia]

As you see from past issues here the lists (additions, decorations) all got timed out, I had to limit the hits (resources.xqm line 877 in 77129b8 ) to get the list to load, but probably there is a better way to query data

Ah, that makes a lot of sense! I'll see if I can speed the up a bit! Thanks for the explanation!

the link removed in nav.xqm is not to additions but as you can see in the code to
href="/documentcorpora.html - this is a resource I am currently not maintaining
