Consolidate action handlers into controller methods (todo/02-php-components.md).
src/ThesisCreateController.php (new, 435 lines)
Mirrors ThesisEditController for the add-thesis flow.
make() — factory; instantiates Database via new Database()
loadFormData() — returns all lookup tables needed by admin/add.php
(orientations, apPrograms, finalityTypes, languages,
formatTypes, licenseTypes)
submit(post, files) — full new-thesis creation pipeline:
1. validateAndSanitise() — trims/strips HTML, validates required fields,
year range, orientation/ap/finality IDs, language selection, max-10
keywords, URL format; throws named Exception on failure
2. findOrCreateAuthor() — reuses existing DB method
3. Transaction: createThesis + setThesisJury + setThesisLanguages +
setThesisFormats + setThesisTags; rolls back on any failure
4. File uploads outside transaction: cover image (JPG/PNG only, stored in
storage/covers/), banner via handleBannerUpload(), thesis files
(PDF/JPG/PNG/MP4/ZIP/VTT, stored in storage/theses/YEAR/IDENT/,
file_type auto-detected: caption/annex/main/other)
autofocusFieldForError() — static; maps exception messages to field names
for WCAG 3.3.1 autofocus on re-render (same contract as
ThesisEditController::autofocusFieldForError)
admin/actions/formulaire.php 346 → 45 lines
Now: bootstrap + CSRF guard + ThesisCreateController::make()->submit() +
flash/redirect on error. All validation, DB logic, and file handling removed.
admin/add.php
Lookup-table block (new Database() + 6 individual DB calls) replaced with
ThesisCreateController::make()->loadFormData() + extract().
src/Database.php — two new methods added
setPublished(int , bool ): void
UPDATE theses SET is_published = ?, updated_at = CURRENT_TIMESTAMP WHERE id = ?
bulkSetPublished(int[] , bool ): void
Same but with an IN (...) clause for multiple IDs
admin/actions/publish.php 100 → 65 lines
Raw SQL (->prepare('UPDATE theses SET is_published = ?...')) replaced
with ->setPublished() / ->bulkSetPublished(). No raw PDO calls remain
in any action handler file.
Move all data-fetching and view-variable assembly out of public/index.php
into a new src/HomeController.php, following the same pattern as
SearchController, TfeController, SystemController, and ThesisEditController.
HomeController::create() builds the Database singleton dependency.
HomeController::handle() encapsulates:
- GET param parsing (page, year) with safe type coercion
- Display-mode detection: default random-latest view / year-filtered /
paginated-all theses
- All DB calls: getLatestPublishedYear, getLatestYearTheses, searchTheses,
countSearchResults, getPublishedTheses, countPublishedTheses,
getCoverPathsForTheses, getAvailableYears
- Batch cover-image loading for theses without a banner_path
- baseParams assembly for the pagination partial
- OG / meta tag array construction
- Graceful error handling (logs exception, returns safe empty state)
- Returns a flat array of view variables
public/index.php is now a 6-line dispatcher (require + create + handle +
extract) followed by a pure view template. Reduced from 100 to 71 lines.
All error-handling and data logic removed from the view layer entirely.
src/ThesisEditController.php (285 lines) centralises all data-fetching and
mutation logic for the thesis-edit workflow:
load(int $thesisId): array
Fetches the thesis row, current language/format/jury selections, and all
lookup tables (orientations, AP programmes, finality types, languages,
formats, licences, access types) in one call. Returns a flat view-variable
array that the dispatcher extracts directly.
save(int $thesisId, array $post, array $files): void
Runs the full edit inside a transaction: thesis metadata, authors, jury,
languages, formats, tags. Banner upload/removal is handled outside the
transaction (filesystem op). Rolls back and re-throws on any failure.
static autofocusFieldForError(string $msg): ?string
Centralises the WCAG 3.3.1 exception-message → field-name mapping that
was previously duplicated inline in actions/edit.php.
Dispatcher changes:
admin/edit.php 191 → 162 lines (pure view + ThesisEditController::create() + load())
actions/edit.php 153 → 53 lines (CSRF guard + ThesisEditController::save() call)
Follows the same pattern as SearchController and SystemController.
Move all data-fetching and request logic out of the 285-line search page
into src/SearchController.php:
- SearchController::create() — static factory; builds RateLimit + Database
dependencies, sends HTTP 429 (and exits) if rate limit is exceeded,
runs probabilistic cleanup, returns ready instance
- SearchController::handle() — sanitises GET params (query/year/orientation/
ap_program/keyword), runs all DB queries (searchTheses, countSearchResults,
getAvailableYears, getAllOrientations, getAllAPPrograms, getUsedTags,
getPublishedAuthors), builds alphabetical author→id map, assembles
OG/meta tags, returns a flat array of view variables
- Rate-limit 429 HTML response moved into private sendRateLimitResponse()
public/search.php is now a 6-line dispatcher:
require SearchController; extract(SearchController::create()->handle());
followed by the unchanged view template (162 lines total, was 285).
The view template is byte-for-byte equivalent: same HTML, same variable
names, same pagination partial include.
Move the ~130-line $extraJsInline heredoc from admin/system.php into a
static file public/assets/js/system.js, loaded via $extraJs so the
template footer emits a normal <script src=…>.
Replace 4 inline style= attributes with named CSS modifier classes in
system.css:
- style="margin:0;border:none;padding:0" on .srv-section-title
→ .srv-section-title--compact
- style="margin-bottom:.75rem" on sub-heading <h3>
→ .srv-section-title--sub
- style="margin-bottom:0" on .php-grid
→ .php-grid--flush
- style="font-size:.84rem;color:var(--text-secondary)" on <label>
→ .log-toolbar label rule in system.css
The one remaining inline style (--disk-pct / --disk-color CSS custom
properties on .disk-bar) is intentionally kept: it carries PHP runtime
values that cannot be expressed in a static stylesheet.
App::consumeFlash() had 18-line legacy fallback chains reading from seven old
session keys (error, admin_error, edit_error, form_error, success,
admin_success, edit_success) that were written by no code in the codebase.
All action handlers have used App::flash() -> _flash_error / _flash_success
since the App class was introduced. Removed the dead fallbacks; consumeFlash()
is now 4 lines.
admin/import.php was the last admin template with inline style= attributes.
Extracted four of them to named CSS classes in admin.css:
- admin-error-list — error <ul> spacing (was style="margin:.5rem 0 0;padding-left:1.2rem")
- admin-file-hint — <small> display + margin (was style="margin-top:.5rem")
- admin-import-results — results panel margin (was style="margin-top:2rem")
- admin-import-results__title — <h2> typography (was multi-property inline style)
Closes the 'unify flash message keys' item in todo/02-php-components.md and
the import.php inline style item in todo/01-css-semantic-refactor.md.
Names, roles, emails, and credits on the À propos page were hardcoded
directly in apropos.php HTML. To update a contact meant editing a
template file — risky for non-developers and easy to introduce a typo
or broken mailto link.
Changes:
- config/apropos.php: new config array with erg_url, contacts[] (name,
role, email per person) and credits[] (label/value pairs); follows
the same pattern as config/admin_credentials.php
- public/apropos.php: loads config via require; aside section now loops
over $apropos['contacts'] and $apropos['credits'] with htmlspecialchars
throughout; hardcoded HTML strings removed entirely
Also audited todo/02-php-components.md and marked 8 stale items as done:
all 5 form field partials were already implemented and in use, the
flash-message consolidation was already handled by App::consumeFlash(),
and the RateLimit cache dir was already at storage/cache/rate_limit
(excluded from deploy rsync).
- Updated 6 admin templates: add.php, edit.php, login.php, account.php,
import.php, pages-edit.php — replaced <div class="admin-submit-wrap">
with <div class="admin-form-footer">
- Updated 8 CSS selectors in admin.css:
- .admin-form-footer { margin-top/padding-top } (was .admin-submit-wrap)
- .admin-form > div:not(.admin-form-footer) grid exclusion guard (×3)
- .admin-login-box .admin-form > div:not(.admin-form-footer) overrides (×2)
- .admin-login-box .admin-form-footer compact spacing override
- No visual change; purely a semantic rename to a descriptive class name
- Also marked status-badge.php partial and WCAG 1.3.1 badge tasks as
already-done in todo/02-php-components.md and todo/04-accessibility.md
(partial + CSS were fully implemented but todo had not been updated)
- Add Database::getThesesListCount(array $filters) — runs the same WHERE
clauses as getThesesList() but with COUNT(DISTINCT t.id); used to compute
total pages without loading all rows.
- Extend Database::getThesesList() with $limit/$offset parameters; when
$limit > 0 appends LIMIT/OFFSET and re-binds positional params individually
to avoid the PDO mixed-style restriction.
- Fix getThesesList() SELECT: add LEFT JOIN access_types + at.name as
access_type — the column was referenced in the template but never fetched.
- Wire admin/index.php: read ?page=, compute $totalPages/$offset, pass
$perPage=25 + $offset to getThesesList(); include pagination.php partial
below the table with filter-preserving $baseParams.
- Add result-count line (<p class="admin-list-meta">) showing "X–Y sur Z TFE"
when multiple pages exist.
- Add .admin-body .pagination-wrap / .pagination-btn / .pagination-info styles
to admin.css (scoped to .admin-body to avoid colliding with public pages).
