RepoSourceR, for a repo that doesn't have a loom, lists looms that want to
serve that repo with buttons for bidirectionally linking the repo to a loom
Once linked, the repo navbar has a Patches/MRs link pointing to the LoomClothsR
of the linked Loom
This is such a huge patch, it's probably impossible to tell what it does by
looking at the code. One thing is clear: It changes *everything* :P so here's
an overview:
- There are now 5 types of actors, each having its own top-level route
- So projects, repos, etc. are no longer "under" sharers
- Actor routes are now based on their KeyHashid, there are no "idents" anymore,
i.e. URLs look random and don't contain user or repo names
- No sharers anymore; people and groups are distinct entities not sharing a
common namespace or anything like that
- Project has been renamed to Deck and it simply means a ticket tracker; repos
are no longer "under" projects
- In addition to Person, Group, Repo and Deck, there's a new actor type Loom,
which is a patch tracker; i.e. Repo actors don't manage MRs anymore
- All C2S and S2S is temporarily disabled, because huge changes to the whole
code are required and I'll do them gradually in the next patches
- Since form-based actions are implemented using C2S, they're disabled as well,
so Vervis is now essentially read-only
- Some views have been temporarily removed, e.g. repo history and commit view
- A huge set of DB migrations has been added to adapt the DB to these changes;
I haven't tested them yet on a read DB so there may be errors there; I'll fix
them in the next patches if I find any (probably going to test on the main
instance where Vervis itself is hosted...)
- Some modules got tech upgrades, e.g. LocalActor became a higher-kinded type
and a similar pattern is probably relevant for several other types
- There's an 'Actor' entity in the DB schema now, and all 5 actor types use it
for common things like inbox and outbox
- Although inbox and outbox are used only by Actor, so essentially could be
removed, I haven't removed them; that's because I wonder if at some point
users can have a tree of inboxes much like in email; I don't have an excuse
for Outbox, but anyway, leaving them as is for now
- Workflows, roles and collaborators are partially removed/unused until I
figure out a sane federated way to provide these features
- Since repo routes don't contain a "sharer" anymore, SSH URIs are now simpler,
they already look like user@host/repo regardless of who "controls" that repo
* 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
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
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.
- WorkflowField now has a color, it's a simple `Maybe Int` for now. Valid
values are only 1-4
- That color is used for displaying ticket class params a.k.a labels in ticket
list view
- Ticket list now also serves a paged OrderedCollection
I tried to use a single SQL query to grab the tickets along with their labels,
but couldn't figure out a way to aggregate tuples/rows into an array (it seems
only single values are supported in Esqueleto). Instead of doing manual SQL or
adding Esqueleto functions, I just switched from 1 query to O(n) queries: Each
ticket has its own query selecting its labels. I guess it's slower, but also,
ticket list is paged now with fixed page size so it's really O(1) ^_^
Previously, the color would get so dark it would blend with the page background
and the button text color. I'm not sure I picked the best color; just picked
something that works.
FedURIs, until now, have been requiring HTTPS, and no port number, and DNS
internet domain names. This works just fine on the forge fediverse, but it
makes local dev builds much less useful.
This patch introduces URI types that have a type tag specifying one of 2 modes:
- `Dev`: Works with URIs like `http://localhost:3000/s/fr33`
- `Fed`: Works with URIs like `https://dev.community/s/fr33`
This should allow even to run multiple federating instances for development,
without needing TLS or reverse proxies or editing the hosts files or anything
like that.
There used to be project roles and repo roles, and they were separate. A while
ago I merged them, and there has been a single role system, used with both
repos and projects. However the table names were still "ProjectRole" and things
like that. This patch renames some tables to just refer to a "Role" because
there's only one kind of role system.
* 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
* When adding collaborators, you don't need a custom role. If you don't choose
one, a basic default "developer" role will be used
* If you don't assign a `ProjectCollabUser` role, a default "user" role is
assumed for logged in users, otherwise a "guest" role
* The "guest" role currently has no access at all
* Theoretically there may also be a "maintainer" role allowing project
sharers/maintainers to give maintainer-level access to more people, but right
now maintainer role would be the same as developer so I haven't added it yet
