Ugh, that module is such a horrible mess... I hope to turn it soon into
something sane. Is there some generic non-clumsy way restructure the AP
parser/encoder API?
For now, making these ugly changes to support the represenation of
Create {TicketTracker}, which I'm about to implement.
I realized I never intend to leave patterns (e.g. pattern matching in a 'case'
clause) incomplete, i.e. some cases left missing. When I do that it means I
forgot, and I'd like GHC to highlight it by raising an error instead of just
warning. Vervis has lots of warnings so it's hard to detect among them.
I suppose in other kinds of software people sometimes leave incomplete patterns
intentionally / are okay with a runtime exception being thrown? In a web
application, I definitely want to handle all cases, and be in control of how
errors are handled and displayed in UI.
This will allow to use this representation for Offer and Create activities.
When creating a new MR, the inner Offer's 'object' is a 'Patch' object. When
serving an existing hosted MR, the inner Offer's 'object' is just a URI
pointing to the patch.
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
- Sharer-patch was already working due to the shared DB tabled
- Repo-patch support added
- Fixed a bug in following project-tickets: It allowed to follow a
sharer-ticket by sending the Follow to the project. Now, the project allows
to follow only the project-tickets, and refuses to handle a sharer-ticket.
Also fixed a bug in which trying to follow a ticket with nonexistent
ltkhid/talkhid would result with 404 as if the actor inbox is nonexistent. Now,
there's a friendly message reported.
The examples in the security vocabulary's spec use "Key" but the JSON-LD
context doesn't define that term. From now on, just in case, recognizing both
"Key" and "CryptographicKey" as indication that the object is a key.
zPlus, thanks for finding this bug!
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.
Removed its usage in pseudo-client when publishing a comment, and removed it
from inbox forwarding when handling a remote comment.
Very possibly, the ticket team collection will be entirely removed. For now
leaving it there as-is. Just not using it for addressing in activities.
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.
