DEV - Update Datepicker: Start Date, End Date, Remove Chips

[traycn]

Dependency

• [MVP Huggingface] Define Request Type model and GET data from HuggingFace repos. #1891
• [MVP Socrata API] Implement inital Socrata API GET request #1892

Overview

We need to update the DatePicker component to utilize two different fields for Start Date and End Date, as well as remove the pre-defined date chips. This will reduce user confusion around how to complete their date range selection.

Action Items

Before getting started...

• ⚠️ I acknowledge that we are not implementing the pre-selected date chips in the spec ⚠️
  • see Resource, Screenshot: Date Chips In Spec, Do Not Implement

Updating the date picker form fields and dropdowns...

• Modify the DateSelector component to replace the pre-selected date chips with the ReactDayPicker modal
  • Remove the <DateRanges> component within SelectorBox.Collapse, replace with <ReactDayPicker>
  • Remove the separator div
• Modify the DatePicker component to have two new fields, StartDate and EndDate
  • Update the Calendar icon to use the new SVG (see references)
  • Move the Calendar icon to the same form field as StartDate
  • Modify renderSelectedDays() to populate these two fields, rather than populating the spans
    • Extra Credit: write in a comment how you might write tests for this user flow
  • Modify border styles on focus
    • border size is 2px
    • border color is SecondaryFocus
  • Modify text color styles...
    • White (#FFFFFF) when a date is provided (pls confirm w/ design)
    • TextSecondaryLight when a date is not provided
• Modify ReactDayPicker...
  • previous and next arrows should be PrimaryFocus from theme/colors.js
  • Selected Start Day styles are modified...
    • background color will be SecondaryFocus
    • text color will be TextPrimaryDark
    • border is removed
  • Selected range (without start and end dates) styles are modified...
    • background color will be PrimaryLight
  • Selected End Day styles are modified...
    • background color will be PrimaryLight
    • border color is SecondaryFocus
    • border size should be 1px
    • text color should be TextSecondaryLight
  • Extra Credit: find a way to standardize styles within this file, try to reduce usage of magic numbers, but without adding unnecessary indirection
• Ensure functionality matches the specification, document how you would test the interaction
  • ReactDayPicker should highlight the StartDate/EndDate form field when selecting a new start date/end date (respectively)
  • Clicking the StartDate/EndDate should open the ReactDayPicker dropdown
  • The ReactDayPicker dropdown should close once both StartDate and EndDate have been selected
• Optional: Consider refactoring components to use more sensible names and/or organization
  • Suggestion: combine DateSelector with DatePicker component, named DateSelectionForm
  • Suggestion: rename ReactDayPicker to DayPickerContainer
• Extra Credit: make a ticket(s) to do the following...
  • ensure colors are being chosen from our theme file, everywhere in the app
  • consider adopting Tailwind CSS, or some other way of moving our theme data out of bundled JS files
