Enhanced WSDC registration flow with auto-lookup and account validation:
Backend changes:
- Add accountExists flag to WSDC lookup endpoint
- Check database for existing users with WSDC ID
- Fix Prisma binary target for Alpine Linux Docker containers
Frontend changes:
- Auto-lookup WSDC data after entering 4+ digits (500ms debounce)
- Show live preview dropdown with dancer information
- Display warning if account with WSDC ID already exists
- Block registration and suggest login for existing accounts
- Improve UX with real-time validation feedback
- Add CheckCircle, XCircle, AlertCircle icons for visual feedback
This prevents duplicate WSDC ID registrations and provides immediate
feedback to users, improving the registration experience.
Tested with:
- ID 26111 (Vince Yap) - new account allowed
- ID 26997 (Radoslaw) - existing account blocked
Enhanced the fetchAPI function to better handle cases when the server
returns HTML instead of JSON (e.g., when backend is down and nginx
returns 502 Bad Gateway). This prevents confusing error messages like
"Unexpected token '<'" and provides clearer feedback to users.
Changes:
- Check Content-Type header before parsing JSON
- Catch SyntaxError from JSON parsing attempts
- Provide user-friendly error messages for server issues
This fixes the issue where entering WSDC ID 26111 during registration
showed a JSON parsing error when the backend wasn't running.
