Closes #265

Summary

Adds admin-only poster (cover image) management for reels — uploads no longer show a black frame before playback.

Two ways to set a poster:

  • Pick a frame from the reel's own video (scrubber + canvas capture)
  • Upload a custom image directly

Both paths upload to Cloudinary (dnb_reels_posters preset, unsigned — same convention as course thumbnails) and persist the URL via updateReelPoster.

Backend note

PATCH /api/reels/:id/poster doesn't exist yet, so updateReelPoster is a documented stub (mirrors the existing setReelVisibility stub from #335), ready to swap in once the endpoint lands.

Changes

  • lib/actions/reels-action.jsupdateReelPoster stub
  • hooks/useReelPoster.js — optimistic update hook
  • components/organisms/reels/ReelPosterDialog.jsx — frame-capture + upload UI
  • components/atoms/reels/ReelPosterButton.jsx — admin-only trigger
  • components/organisms/reels/ReelCard.jsxposter attribute on <video>, admin gating, dialog wiring
  • .env.example — documents the new Cloudinary preset

Testing

13 new tests (stub action, optimistic hook, both upload flows). npm run lint and npm run a11y are clean on every file this PR touches.

Note: this repo's CI (a11y gate + npm test) currently has pre-existing failures unrelated to this PR — a parsing error in admin-reports.js, a duplicate declaration in AppProviders.jsx, and some flaky admin tests. Confirmed present on dev before this branch, not introduced here.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added poster management for reels.
    • Administrators can capture a video frame or upload a custom image as a reel poster.
    • Reel videos now display their selected poster image.
    • Added image validation for uploads up to 5 MB, with success and error notifications.
  • Documentation

    • Expanded environment configuration guidance for unsigned uploads covering reel posters and cover images.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for poster capture, uploads, persistence, optimistic updates, validation, and error handling.

Admin-only poster management for reels: pick a frame from the video
or upload a custom image as the cover. Fixes black-box video previews.

Backend endpoint does not exist yet, so this uses a stubbed action
(same pattern as the existing moderation stub from Deen-Bridge#335) with a
documented TODO(backend) contract to swap in later.

Includes 13 tests covering the stub, the optimistic hook, and both
upload flows.

Walkthrough

Adds admin-only reel poster management. Administrators can capture a video frame or upload an image, upload it to Cloudinary, persist the returned URL, and display it on the reel video. Tests cover capture, upload, optimistic updates, validation, rollback, and concurrency.

Changes

Reel poster management

Layer / File(s) Summary
Poster persistence action and optimistic hook
lib/actions/reels-action.js, hooks/useReelPoster.js, __tests__/reels/reels-action-poster.test.js, __tests__/reels/useReelPoster.test.jsx
Adds delayed poster persistence with URL validation. useReelPoster applies optimistic updates, commits server values, and rolls back failed updates.
Poster capture and upload dialog
components/organisms/reels/ReelPosterDialog.jsx, __tests__/reels/ReelPosterDialog.test.jsx, .env.example
Adds video-frame capture, custom image upload, Cloudinary integration, upload validation, persistence, notifications, dialog state handling, and related tests.
Admin reel card integration
components/atoms/reels/ReelPosterButton.jsx, components/organisms/reels/ReelCard.jsx
Adds an admin-only poster action and dialog. The reel video uses the current poster URL, and updates refresh the displayed poster.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 062ca

The PR adds admin poster uploads, but the current implementation lacks server-side admin enforcement and stores successful poster changes only temporarily, so unauthorized users may consume upload capacity and updates can disappear after reload. Merge should wait for an authoritative authorized persistence path and confirmed upload restrictions, or require explicit owner acceptance of these risks.

108-114: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Wait for the seeked event before allowing capture.

Setting currentTime starts an asynchronous seek. The browser needs time to decode and paint the new frame. If the admin drags the slider and immediately clicks "Use this frame as poster", drawImage can encode the frame that was still on screen. That produces the wrong poster, which is the problem this feature aims to solve.

A small seeking flag driven by the video's seeked event closes the gap and can feed the existing busy state.

♻️ Sketch of the fix
+  const [seeking, setSeeking] = useState(false);
+
   const handleScrub = (values) => {
     const [time] = values;
     setScrubTime(time);
     if (videoRef.current) {
+      setSeeking(true);
       videoRef.current.currentTime = time;
     }
   };

Then add onSeeked={() => setSeeking(false)} to the <video> element and include seeking in busy.

capturedPreview is never rendered, and its object URL is never revoked.

capturedPreview is only written — on line 92 and here. No JSX reads it. Each capture therefore allocates a blob URL that the browser holds until the page unloads, with no benefit. If you intended to show a preview thumbnail, render it and revoke the previous URL when it is replaced. If not, please drop the state and the createObjectURL call.

♻️ Proposed cleanup if the preview is not needed
-  const [capturedPreview, setCapturedPreview] = useState(null);
   const [capturing, setCapturing] = useState(false);
   const resetState = useCallback(() => {
     setScrubTime(0);
-    setCapturedPreview(null);
     setCapturing(false);
-      setCapturedPreview(URL.createObjectURL(blob));
       const secureUrl = await frameUpload.uploadFile(file);

Restore spies in an afterEach so a failed assertion cannot cascade.

Each canvas test calls document.createElement.mockRestore() as the last statement of the test body. If any assertion above that line fails, the restore never runs. document.createElement then keeps returning the fake canvas object for the rest of the file, and later Radix renders — including the upload-image test, which does not mock the canvas — fail for an unrelated reason. That hides the real failure and makes CI output hard to read.

vi.restoreAllMocks() in an afterEach runs regardless of outcome. You can then delete the four inline mockRestore() calls.

💚 Proposed fix
 beforeEach(() => {
   vi.clearAllMocks();
   global.URL.createObjectURL = vi.fn(() => "blob:mock-preview");

Add after the beforeEach block:

afterEach(() => {
  vi.restoreAllMocks();
});

Remember to add afterEach to the vitest import on line 10.

Assert the error toast in the failure test.

The failure test proves that persistence is skipped and the dialog stays open. It does not check what the admin sees. Adding expect(toast.error).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1) documents the intended single-toast behavior and would have caught the stale frameUpload.error check I flagged in components/organisms/reels/ReelPosterDialog.jsx at line 133.

A companion case where uploadFile resolves but setPoster rejects would also cover the rollback path called out in the PR description.

💚 Proposed addition
     await waitFor(() => expect(mocks.uploadFrameFile).toHaveBeenCalled());
     expect(mocks.setPoster).not.toHaveBeenCalled();
     expect(onOpenChange).not.toHaveBeenCalledWith(false);
+    expect(toast.error).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1);

The mock does not separate the two upload instances, so the comment and uploadCustomFile are inaccurate.

The comment says the two useCloudinaryUpload instances are distinguished by the preset argument. The factory ignores its arguments and returns mocks.uploadFrameFile for both. mocks.uploadCustomFile is therefore never used, and the upload-image test at line 238 asserts against uploadFrameFile.

The tests still pass, but they cannot detect a wiring regression that makes the upload tab call frameUpload instead of fileUpload. Returning a distinct mock per call restores that guarantee. Nice work mocking at the hook boundary — this change just makes the boundary do what the comment promises.

💚 Proposed fix
 vi.mock("`@/hooks/useCloudinaryUpload`", () => {
+  let instance = 0;
   return {
-  useCloudinaryUpload: () => ({
-    uploadFile: mocks.uploadFrameFile,
-    uploading: false,
-    progress: 0,
-    uploadedUrl: null,
-    error: null,
-    reset: vi.fn(),
-  }),
+    useCloudinaryUpload: () => {
+      // The dialog creates the frame instance first, then the file instance.
+      const uploadFile =
+        instance++ % 2 === 0 ? mocks.uploadFrameFile : mocks.uploadCustomFile;
+      return {
+        uploadFile,
+        uploading: false,
+        progress: 0,
+        uploadedUrl: null,
+        error: null,
+        reset: vi.fn(),
+      };
+    },
   };
+});

Note that the counter must reset between renders, so a beforeEach reset or a per-render factory is needed. An alternative is to key the mock off the component that requested it by asserting on the File name (reel-<id>-frame.jpg for the capture path).

- Around line 248-250: Implement authorization in the PATCH
/api/reels/:id/poster handler and updateReelPoster flow: validate the session
token server-side, allow only moderator or admin users, and return 403 for
non-authorized requests. Keep the existing isAdmin check in ReelCard.jsx solely
for controlling UI visibility, not access control.

In `@components/organisms/reels/ReelPosterDialog.jsx`:
- Line 224: Replace all U+FFFD characters and save the affected files as UTF-8:
in components/organisms/reels/ReelPosterDialog.jsx update the poster text at
lines 224 and 249 to use three periods and clean header comments on lines 3, 6,
9, and 15; in components/organisms/reels/ReelCard.jsx replace the separator
content with the requested HTML entity and clean the JSX comment on line 196; in
__tests__/reels/ReelPosterDialog.test.jsx replace U+FFFD in the describe titles
at lines 124 and 212 with hyphens and clean the header comment on line 2.
- Around line 141-143: Update handleFileChange to clear the file input value
immediately after reading the selected file, including before upload processing,
so selecting the same file again triggers change after a failure.
- Around line 133-135: Update the error handling around the upload invocation in
ReelPosterDialog to track whether the current operation failed directly, rather
than checking the stale frameUpload.error state. Prevent the handler’s fallback
toast when useCloudinaryUpload has already reported the failure, while
preserving the fallback toast for other errors.

In `@lib/actions/reels-action.js`:
- Line 223: Replace the module-local mockReelPosters.set call in the reel poster
update flow with the backend persistence endpoint, and only resolve success
after persistence completes; otherwise return an unsupported result and keep the
UI unavailable.

The previous commit's files were corrupted during a PowerShell paste
(Set-Content/Add-Content without an explicit encoding), which broke the
CI build ("stream did not contain valid UTF-8") and left some comments
showing replacement characters. Re-saved every file as clean UTF-8/ASCII.

Also fixes real issues from review:
- ReelPosterDialog: avoid double-toasting on upload failure (uploadFile
  and setPoster already toast their own errors internally; only capture
  failures need their own toast here)
- ReelPosterDialog: clear the file input immediately after reading so
  re-selecting the same file after a failed upload still fires change
- ReelPosterDialog: remove dead capturedPreview state that allocated a
  blob URL that was never rendered or revoked
- ReelCard: comment clarifying isAdmin is a UI-visibility gate only,
  not access control (real enforcement is server-side per the
  TODO(backend) contract on updateReelPoster)
- Tests: distinct mocks for the frame-tab vs upload-tab Cloudinary
  calls instead of one shared mock, plus afterEach(vi.restoreAllMocks)
  instead of manual cleanup in each test

Note on CI status

Two of the CI failures on this PR are pre-existing and unrelated to this change:

  • Lintlib/actions/admin-reports.js:333 (parsing error) and lib/admin/messages/common.js:101 (missing semicolon)
  • a11y gate — 7 errors across admin/audit-logs, admin/reconciliation, AnnouncementHistoryTable.jsx, and a duplicate-declaration parsing error in AppProviders.jsx
  • Build — fails compiling AppProviders.jsx and admin-reports.js for the same reasons above
  • npm test — a few flaky/failing tests in useAdminTeam.test.jsx and ReportBuilderPage.test.jsx

I confirmed all of these exist on dev before this branch (stashed this PR's diff entirely and re-ran lint/a11y/test/build — identical failures, same files, same line numbers).

Everything this PR actually touches (lib/actions/reels-action.js, hooks/useReelPoster.js, components/organisms/reels/ReelCard.jsx and ReelPosterDialog.jsx, components/atoms/reels/ReelPosterButton.jsx) is clean on lint and the a11y gate, and its own 13 tests pass.

Happy to open a separate issue for the pre-existing breakage if that's useful — just didn't want to bundle an unrelated fix into a thumbnail-management PR.
