Summary

Part of ENG-4844
Fixed ENG-4878
Depends on D9107

On safari we need to start database before rehydration like on other browsers. This is done by initializing the database in getDatabaseModule, so as soon as it's called somewhere we make sure the database is ready to go. This diff also merges initForDBForLoggedInUser, init, and constructor because there was some code duplication.

Test Plan

Test in safari and in chromium:

  • check if there's "Database initialization success" when logging in and when reloading when logged in
  • check if clearSensitiveData is called after logging out
  • check if draft are still there after reload (drafts are persisted with db operations)
  • check if selected apps are still there after reload (selected apps are persisted with standard redux persist mechanism)

We don't activate db for anonymous (logged out) users

Thanks for this!

shouldn't this be databaseStatuses.notSupported?

maybe let's put this code below line 69? ( this.status = databaseStatuses.initInProgress;)

Change initError to notSupported, move safari key init after setting status to initInProgress

Shouldn't this type be ?Promise<void>? It doesn't seem to be set in the constructor

I'm confused about these lines. Where is status defined? Should this be this.status? If so, why doesn't Flow complain?

I think Flow doesn't complain because of this line: it looks like window.status is a thing, and everything in window is in the global namespace as well

Fixed window.status -> this.status issue

Flow didn't complain because (flow docs): "However, Flow will not enforce that all class properties are initialized in constructors"

Actually all of these fields should be set to possibly undefined if we want to be correct, but that would add some invariants/if checks.

I have a solution that is typed correctly and without invariants, but not sure if it's worth it as it's a bit more complex.

I won't block this diff on it, but I think we should strive to have correct types. invariants can feel messy, but I think they are better than having incorrect types

Set DatabaseModule fields to optional and add invariants
