• [x] I wrote clear testing steps that cover the changes made in this PR
  • [x] I added steps for local testing in the Tests section
  • [x] I tested this PR with a High Traffic account against the staging or production API to ensure there are no regressions (e.g. long loading states that impact usability).
• [x] I included screenshots or videos for tests on all platforms
• [x] I ran the tests on all platforms & verified they passed on:
  • [x] Android / native
  • [x] Android / Chrome
  • [x] iOS / native
  • [x] iOS / Safari
  • [x] MacOS / Chrome / Safari
  • [x] MacOS / Desktop
• [x] I verified there are no console errors (if there's a console error not related to the PR, report it or open an issue for it to be fixed)
• [x] I followed proper code patterns (see Reviewing the code)
  • [x] I verified that any callback methods that were added or modified are named for what the method does and never what callback they handle (i.e. toggleReport and not onIconClick)
  • [x] I verified that the left part of a conditional rendering a React component is a boolean and NOT a string, e.g. myBool && <MyComponent />.
  • [x] I verified that comments were added to code that is not self explanatory
  • [x] I verified that any new or modified comments were clear, correct English, and explained "why" the code was doing something instead of only explaining "what" the code was doing.
  • [x] I verified proper file naming conventions were followed for any new files or renamed files. All non-platform specific files are named after what they export and are not named "index.js". All platform-specific files are named for the platform the code supports as outlined in the README.
  • [x] I verified the JSDocs style guidelines (in STYLE.md) were followed
• [x] If a new code pattern is added I verified it was agreed to be used by multiple Expensify engineers
• [x] I followed the guidelines as stated in the Review Guidelines

• [x] I verified all code is DRY (the PR doesn't include any logic written more than once, with the exception of tests)
• [x] I verified any variables that can be defined as constants (ie. in CONST.js or at the top of the file that uses the constant) are defined as such
• [x] I verified that if a function's arguments changed that all usages have also been updated correctly
• [x] If a new component is created I verified that:
  • [x] A similar component doesn't exist in the codebase
  • [x] All props are defined accurately and each prop has a /** comment above it */
  • [x] The file is named correctly
  • [x] The component has a clear name that is non-ambiguous and the purpose of the component can be inferred from the name alone
  • [x] The only data being stored in the state is data necessary for rendering and nothing else
  • [x] If we are not using the full Onyx data that we loaded, I've added the proper selector in order to ensure the component only re-renders when the data it is using changes
  • [x] For Class Components, any internal methods passed to components event handlers are bound to this properly so there are no scoping issues (i.e. for onClick={this.submit} the method this.submit should be bound to this in the constructor)
  • [x] Any internal methods bound to this are necessary to be bound (i.e. avoid this.submit = this.submit.bind(this); if this.submit is never passed to a component event handler like onClick)
  • [x] All JSX used for rendering exists in the render method
  • [x] The component has the minimum amount of code necessary for its purpose, and it is broken down into smaller components in order to separate concerns and functions
• [x] If any new file was added I verified that:
  • [x] The file has a description of what it does and/or why is needed at the top of the file if the code is not self explanatory
• [x] If the PR modifies a generic component, I tested and verified that those changes do not break usages of that component in the rest of the App (i.e. if a shared library or component like Avatar is modified, I verified that Avatar is working as expected in all cases)
• [x] If the main branch was merged into this PR after a review, I tested again and verified the outcome was still expected according to the Test steps.
• [x] I have checked off every checkbox in the PR author checklist, including those that don't apply to this PR.

@dominictb please complete the author checklist and perform some basic manual testing of this PR with a local build of E/App using these changes.

Will do it as soon as possible. Thanks. Feels free to review the rest of the PR

[mananjadhav]

Reviewed it once, going through once again.

[dominictb]

LGTM, pending one confirmation.

@roryabraham Do we do a checklist here? or when we bump the App PR with updated Onyx version?

@mananjadhav some videos are uploaded in the PR description (local build). Feel free to check.

[mananjadhav]

Thanks @dominictb I did check those.

[roryabraham]

Do we do a checklist here?

We should do a checklist here with a build of react-native-onyx linked against E/App dev. See instructions in the README on how to do this.

[dominictb]

uh oh, @mananjadhav anything I need to do to complete the PR? Thanks!

[mananjadhav]

No. I'll finish this checklist today.

[mananjadhav]

@roryabraham All yours.

[roryabraham]

looks like reassure is just not set up correctly in Onyx?

[dominictb]

@roryabraham I merged main. Can u check?

[mananjadhav]

@roryabraham Can you action the PR so that the workflows are executed?

[dominictb]

@roryabraham @mananjadhav let's merge this so I can bump the version in Expensify/App

[dominictb]

@roryabraham @mananjadhav any update before we can merge?

[roryabraham]

sorry for the delay. As this is your first PR in this repo I have to manually approve workflows to run, so that's why it was delayed.
