There was a problem hiding this comment.
Locally, I have this prepended in all the frontend files affected
if (typeof tag === "string") {
// print the trace here so we know who is violating
console.warn(
`Topic tag is a string (${tag}) - this will be deprecated soon. Please pass tag objects instead.`
);
console.warn(new Error().stack);
}
But am thinking of a better way.

Currently in several endpoints (topic list, sidebar, etc), we return an array of strings for tags, e.g.
topic_list.top_tags = ["tag-name1", "tag-name2"].This PR expands tag attributes in various places to return an array of tag objects e.g.
[{ id: 123, name: "tag-name1" }, { id:213, name: "tag-name2" }]. This allows us to return more information regarding a tag, and reference a tag by itsidrather than thenamewhich can be edited.At the same time, we keep compatibility in places where an array of strings are used. In time we will retire this backward compatibility.
(need to find best way to add warning)
