Since collaborator live URIs were using CollabTopic*, this change breaks
existing live URIs, which means all existing delegation chains are now
broken. FYI if you're playing with your own Vervis deployment.
This was accidentally not happening until now.
If I, project A, send a start-Grant to my new parent project B, it means
that whoever has access to project B will have access to my settings as
well (for the specific operations their role allows).
Until now I've managed to avoid having to implement this piece quite
easily. The only temptation to implement it has been pseudo-client
features, which are basically just a workaround until Vervis gets a
separate client app.
But now, Person actors need to be able to automatically send
delegator-Grants when they receive a direct-Grant from a resource they
either asked to Join or got an Invite to. So, this creates a need to
track these joins and invites on the server side.
I'm not checking the exact minimal pieces necessary for
delegator-Grants. Instead, I'm starting a full implementation of the
person-side of Collab records (AKA direct-Grants), called Permit
records. This will also allow very convenient display of these Grants
and the extensions received through them, as well as UI buttons such as
accepting/rejecting a received Join or Invite.
Until now, adding a direct collaborator to a Project worked exactly like
with components: Invite or Join, then Accept, finally the direct-Grant.
I missed the fact that much like with project-component relationships,
projects (and teams) need to be able to send extension-Grants to their
direct collaborators.
So in Project's Grant handler it now:
- Recognizes the delegator-Grant coming from a new collaborator
- Sends extension-Grants, using the delegator-Grant as the capability
- When getting a new component and sending extension-Grants for it to
direct collaborators, Project uses their delegator-Grants as
capability
And in Project's Accept handler, it no longer sends extension-Grants
(because it doesn't yet have the collaborator's delegator-Grant at this
point).
NOTE, THIS TEMPORARILY BREAKS grant chains: If you create a Project and
add a Deck to it, you won't get an extension-Grant-for-the-Deck from the
Project, because the Project doesn't yet have your delegator-Grant.
The next commits will implement the Person-side of Collab records, and
will cause Person actors to automatically send the delegator-Grant,
fixing the break.
Ticket closing can now be done via the new C2S, and the "Close ticket"
button on TicketR page is back, and uses that new C2S.
S2S, C2S and pseudo-client are implemented for both Deck and Loom, but
the actual button and POST handler are provided here only for Deck. Will
add ones for Loom soon, as needed.
