Route YouVersion requests through a backend proxy and implement batch endpoints for improved efficiency and security. Remove unnecessary environment variables and update related code to reflect these changes. Add tests to ensure correct functionality of the new request routing.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Bible chapter content now loads in a single request, providing more consistent verse ordering and smoother loading.
    • Available verse text remains visible while additional chapter content is loading.
    • Missing verse content is handled gracefully instead of causing individual passage failures.
  • Improvements

    • YouVersion Bible access now uses the application’s server connection, so separate client-side YouVersion API credentials are no longer required.
    • Bible loading and error states are now managed consistently at the chapter level.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

YouVersion requests now use the fluent-api proxy. Chapter content is fetched in one batch request. Resource hooks and Bible component tests now consume ordered chapter verses and the updated loading and error states.

Changes

YouVersion proxy migration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Proxy configuration removal
.env.example, src/lib/config.ts, vite.config.ts
YouVersion environment variables, config properties, API-key headers, and test placeholders were removed.
Proxy fetching and chapter contract
src/features/resources/hooks/useYouVersion.ts, src/features/resources/hooks/useYouVersion.test.ts
Bible and chapter-text requests now use fluent-api proxy endpoints. Chapter text uses a typed batch response with ordered verses and fallback handling.
Resource panel integration
src/features/resources/hooks/hooks.ts, src/features/bible/components/PericopeReferenceVerses.tsx, src/features/bible/components/*test.tsx
Resource loading maps chapter verses directly by verse number. Component mocks and assertions now cover batch loading, missing verses, and chapter request failures.

Reviewed alongside fluent-api#338. Verified locally on ft/youversion-serverside: tsc --noEmit clean, eslint clean on changed files, 48/48 tests pass across useYouVersion.test.ts, PericopeReferenceVerses.test.tsx and DraftingUI.test.tsx. (Note the repo pins Node 24.13.x; I installed with --config.engine-strict=false on 24.18.0.)

The main goal lands cleanly — VITE_YOUVERSION_API_KEY is gone from config.ts, vite.config.ts and .env.example, getYouVersionApiHeaders is deleted, and collapsing the two-step meta + per-verse useQueries fan-out into a single keyed query removes a lot of coordination complexity. Net −292 lines.

Nice incidental fix worth calling out: bibleContentError was already being destructured in ResourcePanel.tsx but was never returned by useBibleResources on main, so the Bible error state was permanently undefined. hooks.ts now actually supplies it, which makes onBibleErrorChange work for the first time.

Requesting changes mainly for error-handling paths that silently render as empty, plus one cleanup that undercuts the security goal of the PR. Details inline.

Not anchorable inline (files not in this diff)

  • .github/workflows/deploy.yml lines 104-105 still inject VITE_YOUVERSION_API_URL and VITE_YOUVERSION_API_KEY into the build. Nothing reads them after this PR, but leaving a YouVersion secret wired into the browser build pipeline undercuts the point of the change — please drop both lines (and retire the repo secrets).
  • docs/environment-config.md lines 52-53 still list VITE_YOUVERSION_API_URL / VITE_YOUVERSION_API_KEY as Required. Should be removed.

Merge ordering

This PR deletes the browser-side YouVersion path entirely and depends on fluent-api#338's routes existing. fluent-api#338 must deploy first, or YouVersion reference text breaks in the interim.

Heads-up from the API side

fluent-api#338 currently emits verseNumber: null for any verse whose passage_id third segment isn't numeric (e.g. GEN.1.INTRO) — a NaN guard bug I've flagged there. That would land here as a null Map key in PericopeReferenceVerses. No change needed on this side once that's fixed, but worth knowing the two are coupled.

Should fix — every failure here renders as "no Bibles" with no error state.

This returns [] for any non-ok status, so the query resolves successfully with an empty array. Combined with retry: false and throwOnError: false on useYouVersionBibles, a 502 from /youversion/bibles (which is exactly what fluent-api returns when YOUVERSION_API_KEY is unset, by its documented degrade-don't-crash design) presents to the user as an empty Bible dropdown that looks intentional.

This is also inconsistent with fetchYouVersionChapterText just below, which deliberately throws on 5xx so React Query can expose an error state. Suggest applying the same rule here: throw on 5xx, return [] only for genuine empties.

if (response.status === 404) {
return { id: passageId, content: '', reference: '' };
// Other non-2xx (4xx etc.): treat as empty result.
return { bibleId, bookId, chapterId, verses: [] };

Should fix — 4xx renders as a silently blank panel.

Throwing on 5xx is right, but treating all 4xx as an empty result means an expired session (401) or a user lacking CONTENT_VIEW (403) — both of which the new fluent-api routes can return, since they're gated on authenticateUser + requirePermission — resolves as a successful query with zero verses.

Downstream in hooks.ts, bibleContentError is derived from yvTextError, so it stays false and ResourcePanel reports no error. The user sees an empty reference column with no indication anything went wrong and no prompt to re-authenticate.

Suggest throwing on 401/403 specifically (or on any non-2xx except a status that genuinely means "no content"), so the existing error path picks it up.

const failed =
(isAquifer && aquifer.isError) ||
(isYouVersion && (youVersion.isError || passage?.isError));
(isYouVersion && (youVersion.isError || youVersion.data?.verses.length === 0));

Minor: youVersion.data?.verses.length === 0 conflates three distinct states — an upstream failure, a 4xx swallowed into { verses: [] } by fetchYouVersionChapterText, and a chapter that legitimately returned no verses. All three render "Unable to load Bible content."

It does usefully compensate for the swallowed-4xx case today, but if the useYouVersion.ts error handling is tightened as suggested there, this condition becomes redundant and will start mislabelling genuine empties. Worth dropping once isError is trustworthy.
