- UI for creating a Factory
- UI for specifying a Factory when creating resource actors
- Old way of creation doesn't work anymore, except for Factory itself
- UI indicates whether you're an admin user
- Settings allow to choose "resident" factories, i.e. ones automatically
offered to every newly verified user
Caveats:
- Factories are all-in-one, no mechanism yet for choosing actor types
- No UI/logic for auto-offering a Factory to all users of a different
instance, and signaling other instances about newly verified local
users
- No factories inserted to DB yet
- Admin user list specified in settings
- Admins can create a Factory via C2S
- Creating other actors via C2S the old way still works as well
- Factory S2S handler implementation still blank
The major changes:
- No more hit and hit-* packages
- No more diagram and SVG font stuff
- Dependency on darcs is not yet removed
- No more persistent-graph i.e. recursive SQL queries
- Some hit-network stuff still in use, now part of Vervis itself
- Git operations use the git command-line program, a convenient API is provided
in Data.Git.Local
- No more patch parsing and no diff view, patches are treated as a piece of
text and displayed as-is (although I could add syntax-highlighting as a nice
touch for the HTML view)
New iteration of the ActivityPub delivery implementation and interface.
Advantages over previous interface:
* When sending a ByteString body, the sender is explicitly passed as a
parameter instead of JSON-parsing it out of the ByteString
* Clear 3 operations provided: Send, Resend and Forward
* Support for per-actor keys
* Actor-type-specific functions (e.g. deliverRemoteDB_D) removed
* Only the most high-level API is exposed to Activity handler code, making
handler code more concise and clear
Also added in this patch:
* Foundation for per-actor key support
* 1 key per actor allowed in DB
* Disabled C2S and S2S handlers now un-exported for clarity
* Audience and capability parsing automatically done for all C2S handlers
* Audience and activity composition automatically done for Vervis.Client
builder functions
Caveats:
* Actor documents still don't link to their per-actor keys; that should be the
last piece to complete per-actor key support
* No moderation and anti-spam tools yet
* Delivery API doesn't yet have good integration of persistence layer, e.g.
activity is separately encoded into bytestring for DB and for HTTP; this will
be improved in the next iteration
* Periodic delivery now done in 3 separate steps, running sequentially; it
simplifies the code, but may be changed for efficiency/robustness in the next
iterations
* Periodic delivery collects per-actor keys in a
1-DB-transaction-for-each-delivery fashion, rather than grabbing them in the
big Esqueleto query (or keeping the signed output in the DB; this isn't done
currently to allow for smooth actor key renewal)
* No support yet in the API for delivery where the actor key has already been
fetched, rather than doing a DB transaction to grab it; such support would be
just an optimization, so it's low-priority, but will be added in later
iterations
* Publish a Create activity and respond with a Grant activity
* postProjectsR reuses that code
* No automatic following at the moment
* Workflow and role specified in new project form are ignored for now
* Can't create tracker under a group yet, just under the user
If sharer receives Accept on an Offer/Dep where the sharer hosts the child
ticket, it records a RemoteTicketDependency and runs inbox forwarding to ticket
followers. But this relies on a TicketDependencyOffer record already existing.
I'll take care of that in the next patches.
sharerAcceptF and sharerRejectF now use the insertToInbox from
Vervis.Federation.Util instead of their own copies of it, which were identical
anyway. Perhaps gradually all the inbox insertion in all S2S handlers will
switch to using that function.
To be honest, this is a huge patch that changes tons of stuff and probably
should have been broken up into small changes. But I already had the codebase
not building, so... just did all of this at once :P
Basically this patch does the following:
- DB migrations for ticket dependency related tables, e.g. allowing a remote
author and a remote child
- Allowing S2S handlers to provide an async continued processing function,
which is executed and the result then added to the debug page
- Most UI and functionality related to ticket deps is disabled, new
implementation being added gradually via ActivityPub
- Improvements to AP tools, e.g. allow to specify multiple hosts for approved
forwarding when sending out an activity, and allow to specify audience of
software-authored activities using a convenient human-friendly structure
- Implementation of S2S sharerOfferDepF which creates a dependency under a
sharer-hosted ticket/patch and sends back an Accept
This is the first step preparing for patches and merge requests.
The work-item aspect of MRs will reuse the Ticket related tables, except MRs
will live under repos. So, the context of tickets will no longer be just
projects, but will also be repos.
So, TicketProjectLocal turns into TicketContextLocal, and there are 2 new
tables that refer to it: TicketProjectLocal and TicketRepoLocal. Tickets will
have the former, MRs will have the latter.
The implementation felt quite weird, had to add an extra field to Fetched and
to VerifKeyDetail. Should probably figure out the whole mess in that code, have
something clean there. Easily add fields. Easily and safely re-fetch an actor
or key.
Now it's much clearer when looking at the code, that these routes are about
project-hosted tickets, and it's easier to see where the author-hosted
equivalents are missing.
IMPORTANT: Since a lot of ticket code still doesn't use TicketUnderProject,
creating tickets now appears to be failing. Usage of this patch as is, is at
your own risk ^_^ the next patches will update the ticket handlers to fix this
problem.
A row in this table will be required for local-project-local-author tickets
hosted under the project, and non-existence of a row will be required for such
tickets hosted by the author. So I'll need to CAREFULLY update all the ticket
route handler code and all the ticket related AP code. The latter includes C2S
and S2S for tickets, ticket deps, ticket discussion... everything that is under
tickets.
That's because with the Create flow added, the activity that reports a ticket
can be either Create or Offer, maybe later Announce too.
The old TAL unique name mentioned in the migration has what may look like a
typo, "Locale" instead of "Local". That's because I made a typo in migration
115, and now needed to specify the typoed name I used then. I verified in dev
DB and on dev.angeley.es DB that the typo is reflected in the PostgreSQL
database side and fixed by the new migrations.
