There is now a filter button by the search bar in the menu view for locations! This opens a menu that allows you to filter by diets and to filter out any allergens that you need to avoid. These options are all written to UserDefaults, allowing you to set your options once and have them persist across menus and sessions.
Also started on some refactors, these will be furthered in a later commit.
Dining locations that also exist on FD MealPlanner now have a "View Menu" button under the favorite/OnDemand/map buttons that take you to a new view that pulls the location's menu from FD MealPlanner. You can view all of the menu items that have actually been added to that site, and tap them for more details (which will be expanded on later). Searching the item list is supported, with more filtering options coming in the next update. Meal periods can be browsed using the clock button in the top right for locations that are open more than once per day.
Other changes:
- App renamed from "RIT Dining" to "TigerDine" to not get me in trouble for an App Store release
- Slightly changed the way that dining locations' short descriptions and current open times are displayed in the detail view
- Fixed the box truck icon used in the food truck view being squished
- All open dining locations now have a small shopping cart button in the top right that opens up OnDemand
- The about screen is organized much better and has a clear disclaimer about this not being an RIT-affiliated project
This update mostly includes improvements related to sorting and filtering the main dining location list, including:
- Favorites! You can mark locations as your favorites by swiping them on the list or pressing the star button on their detail page. Favorites are sorted to the top.
- "Hide Closed Locations" has been moved to a dedicated sort/filter button in the bottom left corner. This looks best on iOS 26+, where it sits nicely to the left of the search bar.
- Added an "Open Locations First" option to sort open locations above closed locations, if you want to know what's open quicker without entirely hiding closed locations.
Other improvements:
- Made most asynchronous code properly async instead of bouncing between DispatchQueue.main.async{} and .sync{}.
- Added a timer to refresh open statuses every 3 seconds while on the main list, so that when the time changes the open statuses will change appropriately. It seemed silly to force you to fetch the data again just to do a quick "hey is current time in range?".
- Made date formatter shared so there aren't 3 separate copies of it.
