Both from the second Darkwing scan. Every claim in it was verified against the
code before acting.
The kiosk was the product's only unauthenticated write, justified by a decision
record saying it was "physically rate-limited: it serves a touch screen on the
shop floor". Nothing in code enforced the physical half, and an HTTP route is
reachable from wherever the app is. What that left open:
- _kiosk_find_item falls back to matching bare digits against the numeric
tail of every active item, so 1, 2, 3 walk the catalogue without knowing a
barcode;
- a badge is a short numeric SSO, and the route answered 422 for an unknown
one and 200 for a real one - an oracle for sorting guesses into employees;
- the write then decremented stock and stamped the ledger, which IS the audit
trail, with whatever SSO the caller supplied;
- quantity was bounded only by what was on hand, so one request emptied a bin.
A badge is attribution, never authorization. Both kiosk routes now need the
site's kiosk flag AND a per-device token, and 404 rather than 403 without them
so a caller does not learn the door is there. The READ is gated too: gating only
the write would have left the enumeration oracle running against a kiosk a site
had switched off.
The token is per-DEVICE, not per-page, because a kiosk is a browser on a touch
screen and a token served inside the page is readable by anyone who can load it.
An admin opens the screen once as /parts-kiosk?token=..., the page moves it into
that browser's localStorage and strips it from the address bar.
Also: quantity is capped per take, JSON true no longer passes as 1
(isinstance(True, int) is True), and every badge failure on the anonymous route
returns one message. The gated restock and adjust handlers keep the specific
message - there the person is known and the detail is help, not an oracle. I
changed the wrong one of those three handlers first; caught by the test.
/api/dashboard/health formatted str(e) straight into the body of a route
PUBLIC_ENDPOINTS declares open because "monitoring has no account". A pymysql
OperationalError names the database account, the app host's address, the driver
and the failing statement. It is logged server-side now and the body carries a
coarse status. The version goes with it - it told an anonymous caller which
release to look up. Status stays 200 either way: a monitor keyed on the body's
status field is the contract here, and turning a degraded database into a
transport failure is a separate decision from not leaking the exception.
Nine tests. The three gate tests were confirmed to fail with the gate stubbed
out, rather than assumed to cover it. Suite 2325, frontend 316, build clean.
Scope: product
Every detail page read "West Jefferson ShopDB - Machine". Two tabs on two
different machines were indistinguishable, a bookmark said nothing about what
it pointed at, and a link shared into Teams previewed as the section rather
than the thing.
The router cannot fix this alone: afterEach runs before the view has fetched
anything, so it only ever knows the KIND of page. So a detail view names its
record once the record arrives, and both writers go through
composables/pageTitle.js.
THE ORDERING IS THE WHOLE PROBLEM. The router awaits the site settings to build
the "<facility> ShopDB" prefix, so on a cold load it finishes AFTER a view that
fetched quickly and would overwrite the good title with the generic one. The
route's fullPath is claimed before that await, and the generic write stands
down when a record title already belongs to the route being landed on. The
reverse case is handled too: a view that names its record BEFORE the facility
name arrives composed against the placeholder prefix, so the late resolve
rewrites it rather than leaving "ShopDB - CSF16" on a site called West
Jefferson. Both are pinned by tests, because both fail only under timing.
Covers machines, PCs, printers, network devices, subnets, measuring tools, USB
devices, printed parts, applications, employees, knowledge base articles and
guides. Printers reuse the page's own displayTitle, which already discards the
literal name "NONE" a discovered queue can carry, so the tab and the heading
agree.
A record with no usable name, or one that failed to load, keeps the section
name: "Machine" beats "Machine 4192" for somebody scanning a row of tabs.
Long names are cut at a word boundary - knowledge base articles are named with
a whole sentence of description, which a browser otherwise truncates mid-word.
Reports gained meta.title, which the router already supported and nothing used.
That also fixes "Pc Relationships", which the name-derived spelling produced.
Follow-up to the application-picker fix. Three of these were already wrong on
data that exists today, not merely latent.
Batch label printing is the worst of them: AssetLabelBatch asked for 500
machines or PCs, got 100, and printed a sheet that looked complete. With 262
machines and 290 PCs in the catalogue that is a physically short run with no
error anywhere - the operator finds out at the label printer, or later at the
bay with no label on it. PrinterQRBatch, USBLabelBatch and PrintedPartsLabels
had the same shape and are fixed alongside it, before their tables cross 100
too.
MachineForm's "controls" PC dropdown offered the first 100 of 290, so a
machine could not be linked to a PC sorting late in the list. NetworkDeviceForm
had it for models, which are already past 100 - and the same file already
called modelsApi.listAll() correctly two lines away.
Adds listAll() to the machines, computers, printers, network, measuring-tools,
USB and printed-parts APIs, all delegating to fetchAllPages().
Still outstanding: callers of vendors, locations, business units and the type
catalogues that ask for more than 100. Those tables are all well under the cap
today, so they are correct for now and wrong the day they are not.
Three core pages and four plugin pages each imported qrcode and jsbarcode
directly, and each carried its own answer to the same questions: what margin,
what width, which error correction, how big a module must be before a scanner
can read it. The answers had already drifted - margin 0 in one place and 2 in
another, width 150 against 160 - and on a label that is the difference between
a sticker that scans and one that does not.
frontend/src/utils/codes.js owns it now: the label-stock presets, the quiet-zone
and margin defaults, CODE128 with no printed value, and the printer-resolution
arithmetic that only the Tech Tools generator had. A view passes what is
specific to its own label and nothing else - MachineBadge still asks for CODE39,
because the badge readers predate the shop-floor scanners and decode nothing
else, and that is exactly the kind of thing a call site should say out loud.
views/print/qrLogo.js is folded in rather than left as a second half-shared
helper that only some of the pages reached into.
The check script now fails a build that imports either library outside that
module. Without it this re-forks within a month: the next label page starts by
copying the nearest existing one, which is how it happened the first time.
Tests cover the part no amount of looking at a screen verifies - a QR that
looks fine at 96 dpi on a monitor can be unreadable at 203 dpi on half-inch
stock.
The scanner has been reporting the same count for weeks, which is what a rule
that only prints becomes. It now FAILS the build, and it looks where the leaks
actually were: PowerShell, the installer, the seeds, generated JSON, the
frontend - case-insensitively, across plugins, shopdb, scripts, deploy, tools.
A line that is deliberate declares itself with an ADR-015-OK marker and a
reason, so the claim is visible in review instead of tolerated in silence.
What it found, fixed here:
- The shadow client wrote one site's ShopDB URL into HKLM whenever the registry
disagreed. At the site it was written for that reads as healing drift;
anywhere else it overwrites the site's own address on every enforce cycle,
and the site cannot win because the cycle repeats. The bay's value now wins,
an explicit -BaseUrl seeds it, and with neither there is nothing honest to
write, so it says so and skips.
- The kiosk dispatcher fell back to one plant's host when HKLM was unset, so a
kiosk elsewhere quietly opened a server it has no business reaching. The
fallback is now this site's site_base_url, baked in at seed time, and the
dispatcher refuses rather than guessing when neither is set. Its legacy
shortcut matcher derives the host from that URL instead of naming one.
- The OpenAPI generator hardcoded a production hostname into every spec it
generated, which then published to a public wiki. The relative mount is the
only server it can honestly name; a site passes its own by environment.
- Placeholders and examples in the UI and the client help offered real internal
subnets and a real production URL. They now use documentation ranges.
Both publication gates - the export scrub and the docs publishability test -
carry the site patterns, which neither did. One plant's hostname, FQDN and
internal networks are out of the documentation and the generated specs.
Comments naming the reference site are reworded rather than deleted: the
reasoning is worth keeping, the plant name is not what makes it true.
The kiosk runs full-screen on a wall-mounted display, where the interface sat
against the top edge with the rest of the screen empty below it. It now
centres as one block, vertically and horizontally.
The title was the other half of it: the header was space-between, which reads
as centred only on the steps that show the Start over button. On the first
step, with no button to balance it, the title sat alone at the left edge of
the column. The title is centred and Start over is taken out of the flow so it
keeps its corner without shifting the title on the steps that have it.
Centring uses `safe center`, with plain `center` as the fallback line. On a
screen too short for the content, plain `center` overflows in both directions
and the header ends up above the scroll origin, unreachable. `safe` falls back
to top-aligned there and the page scrolls normally.
Two things a second site ran into.
The network device form asked for the map position as two raw numbers, so
placing a device meant reading coordinates off another screen and typing them
in. Machines, PCs and printers have had a "Set Location on Map" picker all
along, and the network API already accepted mapx and mapy - only the form was
missing. Same picker, same modal.
The 3D parts kiosk hardcoded 'WJ' as the prefix shown before the number box,
with a comment inviting whoever needed something else to edit the source. That
is West Jefferson's gage-lab tag format and nobody else's, so another site's
operators were told to expect letters that are not on their labels.
It is now printedparts_label_prefix, set in Settings, defaulting to EMPTY - a
site that has not set one sees no prefix rather than inheriting another site's
convention. West Jefferson sets it to WJ once. The kiosk hides the prefix
entirely when unset and falls back to no prefix if the setting cannot be read,
because a cosmetic hint must never stop a kiosk working.
Not to be confused with printedparts_code_prefix, which mints item codes like
3DP0042 and was already configurable. That is the code we generate; this is the
tag already printed on the label.
Two unrelated things found while looking at blank printer types.
Selecting a filter while past page one returned an empty list. The filter asked
the server for page 5 of a result set that now had one page, and the screen said
nothing matched. useListQuery already resets the page - setSearch and setExtra
both do - but the filter dropdowns bypassed it and called the loader directly.
Nine list pages now route through applyFilter, which calls setPage(1) when it
needs to and loads directly when already on page one, so the composable's URL
watcher does not also fire and fetch twice.
scripts/retype_models.py addresses why printer types cannot be derived. The
catalog types every printer model "Printer": true, and useless, since it does not
say whether the product is a laser, a plotter or a label printer. That answer is
a property of the model - every VersaLink C405 is a laser MFP - but nothing
recorded it, so nothing could derive it. Recording it on the MODEL means the
existing backfill fills every printer by exact name match, and a printer added
later inherits the right type the moment its model is chosen.
It exports the models needing a decision to CSV with a type suggested from the
model number, a person corrects the column, and applying it is a dry run unless
given --commit. A suggested type is refused unless it already exists in that
asset class's own vocabulary, which is what keeps the later name match working.
The suggestion order matters and got this wrong first time: a generic plotter
pattern matched "Zebra ZT411" and filed a label printer as a plotter. Brands now
come before generic patterns, and the review step exists precisely because a
confident wrong guess would type every asset using that model.
Verified on the development database: 24 printer models need a decision, 22 got
a sensible suggestion, applying them let all 42 printers match a printertype by
name, and the transaction rolled back cleanly.
Support teams gain a webhookurl (migration 7d29 + API + settings-page field), so
a team is a notification target. send_webhook(url=) lets a caller override the
site default with a team's webhook. Printedparts gains a 'alert support team'
setting (printedparts_alert_supportteamid) + selector on its settings page;
low-stock alerts post to that team's webhook, falling back to the site
alert_webhook_url. Email leg unchanged. Same pattern extends to other alerting
plugins (printers low-toner next).
send_webhook(title,text) posts alerts to an optional webhook (Teams Incoming
Webhook / Workflow, or generic JSON) via alert_webhook_url + alert_webhook_format
settings; send_alert fans out to it alongside email; exposed on shopdb.api
(0.13.0->0.14.0, PLUGIN-HOOKS synced); low-stock posts on its custom-recipient
path too. Also: recent-transactions table shows the consumed print-file revision.
Kiosk now displays the scanned revision (badge, quantity, and done screens) so
the operator sees which revision they checked out - it was already recorded on
the take, just not shown. Low-stock email now uses the gage lab tag (was the
internal item code) and links to the item page when site_base_url is set (new
core setting, category email; emails have no request context to derive the URL).
Label switches from CODE128 to a QR encoding 'TAG|rev' (gage lab tag + latest
print-file revision), so a physical part carries which revision it was printed
from - short payload stays low-version + reliable at 0.5in (margin quiet zone,
EC M, no logo). Item exposes latestrevision; kiosk strips the |rev to resolve
and records the scanned revision on the take (migration 0004 adds
printeditemtransactions.revision) for traceability of which rev was consumed.
Manual entry records a null revision.
The badge step card still showed the internal item code; show the gage lab tag
(fallback to item code) to match the label and list. The take still posts the
item code as the stable identifier.
Kiosk item lookup shows a fixed "WJ" prefix addon so operators type only the
number off the label. The label page - and the detail "Part Label" button,
renamed from "Bin Label" - now barcodes and prints the gage lab tag, falling
back to the internal item code when a part has no tag assigned.
The bin step hid entry behind a "Type the number" link, and a plugged-in
keyboard could not drive the visible fields. Replace the hidden wedge input
with one visible, always-focused input per step that a wedge scanner, a
physical keyboard/numpad, and the on-screen keypad all feed; Enter submits.
inputmode="none" keeps the OS soft keyboard from popping on a touchscreen.
The list showed the internal auto-minted itemcode; the gage lab works from the
WJRP gage lab tag. Show gagelabtag as the primary identifier, falling back to
itemcode when a row has no tag assigned.
The staging step that makes lean per-site frontend builds possible, plus the
first plugin relocated as the pilot.
- scripts/stage-frontend.mjs: copies each chosen plugin's plugins/<name>/frontend/
into frontend/src/.plugins-staged/<name>/ and codegens routes.gen.js. Plugin
selection via SITE_PLUGINS (comma-separated); empty = all plugins that have a
frontend/ (the full build). Wired as npm predev/prebuild; outputs gitignored.
- Router imports routes.gen.js and merges staged routes with the in-tree
./routes/*.js glob - dual-location during the transition.
- printedparts relocated: its 6 views (list/detail/form/kiosk + the settings and
labels views from the shared dirs) moved into plugins/printedparts/frontend/
views/, core imports rewritten to the @/ alias; routes.js is the self-contained
route module. Its old in-tree route file is removed.
Also fixes a crash the previous commit (37c764b) shipped: slides.js exports only
`toplevel` (its child routes live in core.js), so the router's
flatMap(m => m.default) produced an undefined child and threw
"Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'path')" at load - the whole SPA
went blank. Guarded with `m.default || []`. (The earlier "print pages are blank"
reading was this crash, not page nature.)
Verified live: /machines renders again; the relocated /printedparts list renders
identically from the staged plugin frontend; SITE_PLUGINS=machines excludes
printedparts from routes.gen. Build (via npm, runs stage) + vitest + naming green.
