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.
Delivery of an activity into local inboxes is being done using custom local
functions. Each C2S or S2S handler has its own specific variant for this.
As part of the ongoing refactoring and evolution of the federation code, I
implemented a general-purpose local delivery function: It takes a
LocalRecipientSet and simply delivers to everyone, no handler-specific
assumptions or limitations.
To limit the recipient set according to handler specific rules, just
filter/adapt/edit it before passing to the delivery function.
The function isn't exported yet, but the existing 'deliverLocal' that delivers
only to actors and to author's followers is now implemented via the new
general-purpose function. I hope that's a step towards doing all the local
delivery using this one function, simplifying the complicated federation
code.
I'll use this for C2S to allow client to state who the tracker actor is. It's
still possible to do without it, by HTTP GETing the ticket's context and
checking whether we got an actor, or a non-actor with ticketsTrackedBy. Tbh I'm
adding createTarget simply because it's easier for coding, no need for a custom
variant of actor fetching :P
This allows the context to be specified even when replies/followers/deps/etc.
aren't. This is needed for Create-ing a Ticket. Also, it allows a ticket's
context to be on a different host than where it's hosted, which is also needed
for the Create flow.
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.
Everywhere Ticket is found, a matching LocalTicket is now expected to be found
too. Ticket doesn't point at LocalTicket because there will be remote cached
tickets too. Also, ticket URLs are going to switch the khid from Ticket to
LocalTicket (much like it's already the case for MessageR).
This is a step preparing for the Create flow for tickets. Each Ticket now gets
a matching LocalTicket that points to it. But otherwise the LocalTicket isn't
in use yet.
