cleaned up the code to get a massive boost to publishing and page
rendering speeds
the issue was related to pages being collected and transformed into
objects the system could use multiple times, resulting in sluggish
rendering due to available memory getting drained to accomodate a long
script running more than it was needed. edited the rendering process so
the script is only called one and the data is passed to the respective
functions that require that data.
also plugged in some minor manual garbage collection that speed up the
process a bit more
there was also a bug with rendering the tags file that was resulting in
the `tags.json` file being unusually large. the issue was tags were
getting replicated in the process resulting in adding duplicates to the
tag file everytime it was run. go rid of the unnecessary function that
was calling the replicate tags array and now the tags file is it's
appropriate size
whew, this turned out to be a big one that wasn't meant to be, but the
peformance boost was worth it
updated dependencies to the latest versions
also took a swing at rendering performance, which was pretty basic. it
was fine for sites with not that many pages, but it gets a bit stick
above 50
as of right now, performance has been improved slighthy by forcing some
garbage collection, rendering 65 pages in under 30 seconds with 256MB
available.
the issue seems to the speed of initial page collections from the
directories and then converting them to objects that the system can use.
going to explore some options to optimize that particular script
also removed page load from PageRepository instantion because when the
app loads, it was calling that class as part of the start of process and
loading pages everytime no matter what page was being looked at.
removing that made non page sections snappier
there was a generic place holder that defaulted to the default page
template to render pages. that's been fixed so it refers to the pages
layout to know what template to use
data sorting needed a new variable to differentiate between index page
rendering and standard page rendering, so that was added to the return
as well as updating the render script to include the variable that
wasn't being added for tags
also updated the git ignore file to ignore global images that are not
used by the base system. the script theme folder needs to be ignore as
well as that is going to updated by the theme itself for front end
coding and not used by the system
service classes are beginning to swell as there functionality is being
fleshed out, so a new organizational structure was needed to make sure
class sizes don't become too large and to increase site managability and
legibilty as more features get added and the code base grows.
data is for retrieving, managing site information, assets interact with external files
and upkeep is for maintenance.
some additional tweaks were also made to the options menu template to
prep it for it's transition to a toolbar component
