Overview

This PR fixes a profile photo bug. Previously, photos selected during onboarding were not appearing on the Profile screen after account creation.

Changes Made

  • Added the selected photo to createUser as encodedImage
  • Resized photos to a max dimension of 300px, compressed as JPEG, and base-64 encode them before uploading (picked up from iOS's implementation)
  • Shared ProfileCreationViewModel between profile creation and goals screen so selected photo carries through onboarding
  • Updated PhotoPicker to refresh when the backend profile image arrives
  • Extracted profile onboarding destinations and shared ViewModel wiring into ProfileOnboardingNavigation.kt to simply MainNavigationWrapper.

Test Coverage

Google Pixel 9a

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Profile photos can be selected during account creation and updated from the profile screen.
    • Photo changes are saved to your account and reflected in your profile.
    • Selected onboarding photos are preserved as you continue through setup.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Profile photo updates are applied only after they succeed, preventing the displayed photo from getting out of sync with your saved profile.
    • Photo updates are handled more reliably when multiple changes are made.

- Encode and submit the selected photo during account creation
- Share onboarding state between profile creation and goals screens
- Extract profile onboarding navigation from MainNavigationWrapper

📝 Walkthrough

The changes add encoded image support to user creation and profile-photo updates. Onboarding persists selected image URIs, while the profile screen queues photo updates and displays the returned URI after success.

Changes: Profile photo flows

Layer / File(s) Summary
Photo mutation contracts and repository operations
app/src/main/graphql/schema.graphqls, app/src/main/graphql/User.graphql, app/src/main/java/com/cornellappdev/uplift/data/repositories/UserInfoRepository.kt, app/src/main/java/com/cornellappdev/uplift/data/repositories/ProfileRepository.kt
GraphQL supports encoded images for user creation and profile updates. UserInfoRepository encodes images, validates update results, and preserves coroutine cancellation. ProfileRepository exposes the update operation.
Onboarding photo selection and submission
app/src/main/java/com/cornellappdev/uplift/ui/viewmodels/onboarding/ProfileCreationViewModel.kt, app/src/main/java/com/cornellappdev/uplift/ui/components/onboarding/PhotoPicker.kt, app/src/main/java/com/cornellappdev/uplift/ui/screens/onboarding/ProfileCreationScreen.kt, app/src/main/java/com/cornellappdev/uplift/ui/MainNavigationWrapper.kt
The onboarding view model restores and saves image URIs, then passes them to user creation. The picker displays the supplied URI, and navigation shares the profile-creation view model with goals onboarding.
Profile photo update and display
app/src/main/java/com/cornellappdev/uplift/ui/screens/profile/ProfileScreen.kt, app/src/main/java/com/cornellappdev/uplift/ui/viewmodels/profile/ProfileViewModel.kt
The profile screen passes photo selections to ProfileViewModel. The view model serializes updates and changes the displayed image only after a successful repository result.

Not too sure if this is necessary or the right approach...my main concern was that MainNavigationWrapper was getting messy, so I factored the profile onboarding-specific navigation composables out into a function. Need some input on this.

I see your concern, but I think this decreases readability since the nav graph is usually easy to understand if the logic is all in the same place. Plus, this extracted functionality is not heavy, so it should be fine to leave it in the file. What's more concerning in MainNavigationWrapper is that we have a lot of UI logic in it, so extracting that, possibly in a future PR, would be the right way to improve readability.

Great PR, thanks for making it small. I'm requesting changes mostly because of the extracted nav graph portion. Everything else is a nit or a sidenote.

Comment (no fixes needed): I'm guessing uploading the image as a string was a stated BE choice. I think the risks for our use case are minimal, but it may be useful to bring up whether we eventually want to use signed URLs. Nice job matching the compression method with iOS; parity is great to have for these things.

Want to flag this for visibility. There is already an issue (#110) created for this, so I highly encourage addressing this before release, since error handling is definitely something we want to have in production.

I think this might be a separate issue. The current view model basically doesn't have error handling for a failure during account creation in onboarding. Issue #110 is for account deletion. I'll address both issues in another PR!

- Restore onboarding photo URI after process death and retain read access
- Save Profile photo changes (previosuly didn't have an update profile picture)
- Keep onboarding navigation in MainNavigationWrapper
- Standardize repository and onboarding log tags

Defer reload requests instead of dropping them.

If workoutLoggedEvent arrives during a photo upload, reload() returns without starting a load. The upload does not reload the profile afterward, so workout counts and history can remain stale. Queue one reload for after the photo update completes.

Display the URI returned by the photo update.

updateProfilePhoto returns the updated image URI, but this line displays the picker URI instead. After a successful upload, the profile can show the local selection rather than the image returned by the server. Set profileImage from the successful Result<Uri>.

Acquire ProfileCreationViewModel in the onboarding screen.

MainNavigationWrapper.kt states that future ViewModels must be added to the screen where they are used. The new hiltViewModel(profileCreationEntry) call violates that guidance and couples the navigation wrapper to WorkoutReminderOnboardingScreen's ViewModel.

Keep the ProfileCreation back-stack entry as the owner when moving the acquisition. Calling plain hiltViewModel() in the goals destination would create a different instance.
