Set initial sort column to "date"

[Arnei]

When initially loading the admin ui, the events table will reorder itself after a few moments. This avoids the reordering by initializing table sorting parameters with "title" for the "sort by column" parameter.

Fixes #610

Use docker or podman to test this pull request locally.

Run test server using develop.opencast.org as backend:

podman run --rm -it -p 127.0.0.1:3000:3000 ghcr.io/opencast/opencast-admin-interface:pr-699

Specify a different backend like stable.opencast.org:

podman run --rm -it -p 127.0.0.1:3000:3000 -e PROXY_TARGET=https://stable.opencast.org ghcr.io/opencast/opencast-admin-interface:pr-699

It may take a few seconds for the interface to spin up. It will then be available at http://127.0.0.1:3000. For more options you can pass on to the proxy, take a look at the README.md.

Note: Sort by date instead.

Does this still work if you have ordered the table before? Or will the admin interface discard custom sort settings after a reload anyway right now?

[Arnei]

The latter, custom sort settings are currently not preserved.

This doesn't seem to work. I've just tested 2e4b2da using npm start and I see three stages when initializing the table

• No data (00:00:04)
• Event “Espresso” as first event (00:00:09)
• Event “Test Scheduling” as first event (00:00:13)

Here is the (slowed down) recording:

Damn it, you're right. Curse you descending sorting order. I'll see what I can do.

[Arnei]

Should be better now.
