Description

Description

Right now there are alot of change requests. So a web request to get them pulls alot of data and takes on the order of seconds no matter the internet connection.

Acceptance Criteria
  • It only fetches change requests it needs to show
  • Filtering still works
Proposed Solution
  • Paginate the getAllChangeRequests API such that the client can pass in the number of change rquests it wants to fetch.
  • Somehow dont break filtering? This might mean filtering has to be server-side which leads to more requests for sure. Maybe upon loading the projects page the first [rowsPerPage] change requests with the given filter can be called, then all other change requests can be fetched asynchronously in the background.

Research direction

Trace getAllChangeRequests from the API to the projects page, including the rowsPerPage value and existing filtering behavior. Start by identifying where requests are fetched and filtered, then verify that pagination limits the initial data and filtering still returns the correct change requests.
