Fix project dropdown not refreshing after project creation or deletion #2547

Copilot · 2025-11-03T22:30:18Z

Project dropdown shows stale cached list after creating a new project or deleting a project within the same organization.

Changes

Modified src/lib/components/breadcrumbs.svelte

Added check for current project existence in cached list to shouldReloadProjects reactive statement
Triggers reload when navigating to a project not present in the dropdown cache
Compare cached project total with allProjectsCount from page data to detect project creation/deletion

$: shouldReloadProjects = isLoadingProjects
    ? false
    : currentProject && loadedProjects.projects.length
      ? // All projects in cache belong to same org, so check first project's teamId
        loadedProjects.projects[0].teamId != currentProject.teamId ||
        !loadedProjects.projects.some((p) => p.$id === currentProject.$id) ||
        // Reload if total project count changed (handles creation/deletion)
        (page.data?.allProjectsCount !== undefined &&
            loadedProjects.total !== page.data.allProjectsCount)
      : !loadedProjects.projects.length;

Previously only reloaded on team ID change or empty cache. Now also:

Reloads when current project is missing from cache (handles project creation)
Reloads when cached total differs from allProjectsCount (handles both creation and deletion)

This approach uses the existing allProjectsCount from the layout data instead of complex navigation tracking, making the solution simpler and more maintainable.

📓 References — List relevant issues, discussions, documentation, or related PRs.

📦 Dependencies & Requirements — Mention any new/updated dependencies, environment variable changes, or configuration updates.

📊 Contributor Summary — Include a Markdown table showing contributions:
| Contributor | Lines Added | Lines Removed | Files Changed |

✔️ Additional Notes — Add any extra reviewer context.
Keep each section concise (under 200 words) and use bullet or numbered lists for clarity."

@copilot make sure the dropdown refreshes after deleting a project too

Fixed in ba2dc94. The dropdown now refreshes after project deletion by tracking navigation state. When a user navigates away from a project page (e.g., to the org page after deletion) and then back to another project, the cache is invalidated to force a reload.

Warning

Firewall rules blocked me from connecting to one or more addresses (expand for details)

I tried to connect to the following addresses, but was blocked by firewall rules:

o1.ingest.sentry.io
- Triggering command: /opt/hostedtoolcache/node/20.19.5/x64/bin/node node /home/REDACTED/work/console/console/node_modules/.bin/../vitest/vitest.mjs run (dns block)

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:

Configure Actions setup steps to set up my environment, which run before the firewall is enabled
Add the appropriate URLs or hosts to the custom allowlist in this repository's Copilot coding agent settings (admins only)

@copilot this seems quite complicated. to detect if a project was deleted or created, can we just use the allProjectsCount?

Simplified in 2c721bf. Now using page.data.allProjectsCount to detect project creation/deletion by comparing it with the cached total. Removed the complex navigation tracking logic entirely.
