This patch also disables the ability to specify deps when creating a ticket,
because those deps won't be in the ticket object anymore. Instead of coding a
workaround and getting complications later, I just disabled that thing. It
wasn't really being used by anyone anyway.
* Have a project team collection, content is the same as ticket team (but
potentially ticket team allows people to opt out of updates on specific
tickets, while project team isn't tied to any specific ticket or other child
object)
* Have a project followers collection, and address it in ticket comments in
addition to the already used recipients (project, ticket team, ticket
followers)
Inbox post is disabled but in the next patches I'll code and integrate a fixed
complete one, hopefully finally getting ticket comment federation ready for
testing.
I'm making this change because if an actor receives an activity due to being
addressed in bto, ot bcc, or being listed in some remote collection, the server
doesn't have a way to tell which actor(s) are the intended recipients, without
having an individual inbox URL for each actor. I could use a different hack for
this, but it wouldn't be compatible with other AP servers (unless the whole
fediverse agrees on a method).
I wasn't using sharedInbox anyway, and it's an optimization either way.
I wrote a function handleOutboxNote that's supposed to do the whole outbox POST
handler process. There's an outbox item table in the DB now, I adapted things
in various source files. Ticket comment federation work is still in progress.
Before, there was a single key used as a personal key for all actors. Now,
things work like this:
- There are 2 keys, each time one is rotated, this way the old key remains
valid and we can freely rotate without a risk of race conditions on other
servers and end up with our posts being rejected
- The keys are explicitly instance-scope keys, all actors refer to them
- We add the ActivityPub-Actor header to all activity POSTs we send, to declare
for which specific actor our signature applies. Activities and otherwise
different payloads may have varying ways to specify attribution; using this
header will be a standard uniform way to specify the actor, regardless of
payload format. Of course, servers should make sure the actual activity is
attributed to the same actor we specified in the header. (This is important
with instance-scope keys; for personal keys it's not critical)
* Repo collab now supports basic default roles developer/user/guest like
project collab does
* User/Anon collab for repos and projects are now stored as fields instead of
in dedicated tables, there was never a need for dedicated tables but I didn't
see that before
* Repo push op is now part of `ProjectOperation`
* `RepoRole` and related code has been entirely removed, only project roles
remain and they're used for both repos and projects
* This is the first not-totally-trivial DB migration in Vervis, it's automatic
but please be careful and report errors
This patch includes some ugliness and commented out code. Sorry for that. I'll
clean it up soon.
Basically there's a TVar holding a Vector of at most 10 AP activities. You can
freely POST stuff to /inbox, and then GET /inbox and see what you posted, or an
error description saying why your activity was rejected.
A workflow is a new entity in Vervis. It defines the workflow of a
projects' ticket system. That includes the possible ticket states,
custom ticket fields, various filters and so on. All ticket system
customization is currently planned to be managed using workflows.
Currently workflows are private and per sharer, but the plan is to
support public workflows that can be shared and cloned.
