Key features delivered include: - Column expression builder and jsonb utilities: added a function to build column expressions from a columns JSONB object; refactored common query expressions and CTEs into a shared function returning jsonb for table columns and records; migrated jsonb_keys_to_array to SQL; improved the query component returning function name and added comments; added tests for get_table_columns_records. - ServerCursor-based result iteration: introduced ServerCursor-based iteration to enable scalable, memory-efficient result processing. - Analytics/UI and installation enhancements: completed installation form/template page, updated translations, added RPC endpoint to get analytics state, improved analytics help text, added privacy settings page, used docs link for analytics page, added beta notice placeholder, and added a sample analytics report page for advanced users. - RPC error handling and typing improvements: standardized RPC error handling with RpcError usage, added error codes (NoConnectionAvailable and NoAdminConnectionAvailable), and propagated RpcErrors across components. - Project setup and maintenance: added pyproject specs, configured repo reference to mathesar/mathesar for mathesar_service, updated documentation references, bumped version to 0.2.0, and refactored Errors component for better architecture. Major bugs fixed include: removing the unused query property from records results; RPC URL and analytics URL fixes; and web authentication reliability fixes (addressing 500 errors on /auth/login). Overall impact and accomplishments: improved data querying correctness and scalability, stronger error handling and resilience, enhanced analytics capabilities and user experience, and better maintainability through refactors and improved docs. This work positions the project for faster feature delivery and more reliable operations in production.
