Walkthrough

The All Tasks report now applies task status and priority changes from socket events to matching tasks in its flat and grouped task data.

Changes: All Tasks report live updates

Layer / File(s) Summary
Status and priority reducers
worklenz-frontend/src/features/reporting/allTasksReports/all-tasks-reports-slice.ts
The slice updates supplied status or priority fields on matching tasks in the flat list and groups. It synchronizes ID aliases and refreshes updated_at. Status updates also synchronize completion fields.
Socket event handling
worklenz-frontend/src/pages/reporting/all-tasks-reports/components/all-tasks-reports-table/all-tasks-reports-table.tsx
The table subscribes to status and priority events when a socket is available. It dispatches updates for payloads with an ID and removes both listeners during cleanup.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Possibly related issues

  • Worklenz/worklenz#741 — The issue reports that status and priority changes do not appear on the All Tasks report until refresh; this change handles those updates through socket events.
Merge Risk: Low · up to 889f8

The All Tasks report can show an incorrect progress percentage on a completed subtask. It may also miss status and priority changes made by other users until the next refetch. Both are limited in scope and have simple workarounds, so the PR is mergeable with follow-up.

Explanation

The title names the feature type and the main change: socket event handlers for task status and priority updates. The raw summary confirms that the all-tasks-reports slice adds updateTaskStatus and updateTaskPriority reducers, and that the table component subscribes to the matching socket events. The title is concise and specific, so it matches the changeset.

Do not write the event's parent ratio to a subtask's progress.

The status event sends complete_ratio from getTaskCompleteRatio(body.parent_task || body.task_id). For a subtask, this is the parent's completion ratio. The reducer writes that value to task.progress for the subtask id. The backend stored the subtask's own progress_value as 100 when it became done. The report can therefore show the parent's ratio, such as 50%, on a completed subtask.

Use the subtask's own progress, or skip the ratio write for subtasks. Keep the parent row's progress in sync through its own update. The event does not carry the subtask's own progress value, so the fix needs a payload or backend change. The reducer change alone is not enough.

Subscribe to the project rooms of the displayed tasks.

The table listens for TASK_STATUS_CHANGE and TASK_PRIORITY_CHANGE, but it does not join any project room. Other clients' status and priority changes reach only the project room. The REST path (tasks-controller.ts:563,565) and the phase auto-advance path (phase-auto-advance.ts:361-362) both use that room. The command path echoes to the triggering socket only. The reporting room carries project date events, not task events. Another user's change can therefore leave this table stale until a refetch.

Subscribe to the project rooms of the displayed tasks. projects-reports-table.tsx:96 uses useProjectRoomSync(projectIds) for the same purpose.
