Merging this to avoid further conflicts, @oandregal let me know if there is any improvement we can make and I will follow up. |

I'm not inside how text filters work, maybe @oandregal can clarify why this part is needed?

This is how to reproduce the bug this effect fixed:
- having a page with title "My page title"
- filter the list of pages by the search component (e.g.: type "title")
- save the view
- reload the page
At this point, we want the search component to show the searched string "title", otherwise the user will see a filtered list but would not know how (or whether) is filtered.
This happens because once Search is mounted, the useDebouncedInput hook is only updated upon changes on local state, ignoring new incoming values for view.search. I've noticed there are two network requests to the pages endpoint:
- the 1st with the default parameters (
view.searchis empty, which is the default state foruseDebouncedInput), - the 2nd with the parameters from the persisted view (
view.searchis "title", the local states needs telling that ).
It seems this code is being refactored. It may be worth taking a look at this after to minimize the network requests, etc.

I don't believe we should couple data views component with the url path. The connection should be made with a param passed to it. How it would work if we have a view with more than one data view components? It's not the current use case, but the component is meant to be reused by consumers to just render data views, so they could have more than one instances in a page and also nothing to do with the url.

We need the plugin gate here in addition to the experiment gate, otherwise this can't be tree-shaken.

Also, we should move the gating out to the module level:
let BlaBla = () => null;
// This condition must stand on its own for correct tree-shaking
if ( process.env.IS_GUTENBERG_PLUGIN ) {
if ( window?.__experimentalAdminViews ) {
BlaBla = DataviewsProvider;
}
}
export default BlaBla;| </DataviewsContext.Provider> | ||

Am I correct in assuming that the decision to use a provider is that the context will be managed separately by the main view and the sidebar?
My first impressions: there is a lot of code in this file and I wonder if all the complexity is absolutely necessary.

@mcsf Exactly both the sidebar and the main view need to change the active view access the views etc so I needed a provider to share this information/state across different parts of the UI.
there is a lot of code in this file and I wonder if all the complexity is absolutely necessary.
The code contains a lot of complexity, but it is necessary. For example, we need to create a taxonomy that can identify a view for a type such as a page. If the taxonomy does not exist, we need to create it. The logic behind this is that we need to wait for the request to determine if the taxonomy already exists. If it doesn't, we create it, and the same for a post with a default view. Although I considered using actions and resolvers to implement this, it did not seem simple, and I was not sure how to follow that approach without previous history. To make the logic easier to understand, I will add better comments, and I will attempt to reuse more logic between creating a taxonomy and creating a post.

This PR adds the ability to persist the dataviews configuration on the database.
For now in order to make this PR even bigger the UI is not included.
In a follow-up PR, I will include UI to choose between different views, create new views etc...
Testing
Go to the new page list change view settings like number of elements per page sorting etc.
Verify that when you change the view a button "review one change" appears.
Click the button "review one change" Verify you can save the "All" dataview (default view).
Verify that when the view is saved after reload the view has the same settings applied.
