/api/docs was broken in every Docker deployment, including the air-gapped ones.
docs.py resolves openapi.json and llms.txt from the repo root, and the image
copies shopdb, plugins, migrations, scripts and wsgi.py but never docs. The page
rendered the Redoc shell and then answered 404 fetching its own specification.
Only the two files the app actually serves are copied; the rest of that tree is
prose with no business in a runtime image.
The theme was invented colours that matched nothing. It now maps the product's
own tokens, and reads the theme the way the app does: the application stores an
explicit light/dark choice and stamps data-theme, so choosing light on a
dark-desktop kiosk used to give a dark documentation page. The operating system
setting is the fallback, exactly as it is in the app.
Light-mode primary, success and error are a shade darker than the product
tokens, because those tokens are designed as fills and fail contrast as text on
the nested panels where type names and required labels sit. Measured with a
browser harness rather than judged by eye: every text node in both themes now
clears WCAG AA, from an initial 5603 reported failures - most of which were the
harness itself ignoring alpha, which is its own lesson about trusting a number.
Four Redoc elements carry hardcoded colours with no theme key and keep targeted
rules, selected by tag and attribute rather than by generated class hashes that
change on every build.
The build now compiles the Python. Docker never imports the application, so a
syntax error sails through every layer and surfaces as a crash-looping
container; that happened, four restarts, while working on this file.
Redoc's upstream licence file was never vendored although its bundle header
points at it. The placeholder added here says exactly that rather than inventing
the third-party notices it is supposed to carry, and the dead redocly.com badge
is hidden: the licence wants the notice in the distribution, not a rendered
link that a site with no internet cannot follow.
(cherry picked from commit 6c00b10618)
The dev stack ran schema work from the api entrypoint while the pull and
airgap stacks ran it from a dedicated migrate service. Same repo, two
different init paths, and the dev one was missing a step.
That gap was real, not theoretical: the first run of this service on a
stack that had been up for days created 13 default settings. The entrypoint
only ran `db upgrade` and `plugin upgrade-all`, never the seeds, so any
patch adding a permission or a setting reached pull/airgap sites and
silently skipped dev. endpoints.agentupdate was exactly that shape of
change.
Running init from the api entrypoint has two other problems. Under
`restart: unless-stopped` a failing migration crash-loops, re-attempting
partially-applied schema work and burying the original error under retry
noise; the migrate service uses `restart: "no"` so a failure exits once and
stays readable. And `plugin upgrade-all` was tolerated as a warning, so the
app would start with plugin tables missing - the shape of the
endpointlogcollections bug. Chained with && it now stops the rollout
instead.
No fallback path is kept in the entrypoint. Compose honours
service_completed_successfully even when a single service is named, so
`up -d api` still runs migrate to completion first - verified, api stays in
Created until migrate exits 0. A skip-flag would have meant the safe
behaviour depended on remembering to set a variable, and deployment here
goes through an install script that invokes compose, so there is no second
caller to protect. The entrypoint keeps only the database wait, which is
about this container's readiness to serve rather than schema state.
The seeds are all create-if-missing, so running them on every start is a
no-op once current: the second run reported 0 permissions, 0 settings and
scopes already up to date. Ordering in the chain is load-bearing - plugin
tables cannot be created before the plugins are installed, and seedscopes
only links permissions that already exist as rows, so seeds run last.
migrate carries the full app environment including CORS_ORIGINS even though
it never serves a request, because create_app() validates config before any
CLI command dispatches and the production config refuses to build without an
explicit allowlist. It mounts instance_data because bootstrap-plugins.sh
writes plugins.json there; it and api never run concurrently, so the shared
mount is not contended.
The Dockerfile's standalone `docker run` note now states that the image does
not migrate itself and lists the sequence to run first.
- Add docker-entrypoint.sh: runs migrations and bootstraps plugins
- Add bootstrap-plugins.sh: installs all plugins (disabled by default)
- Update Dockerfile to use entrypoint
- Plugins can now be enabled via Settings UI after first deployment
- Idempotent: safe to run multiple times
- Solves issue where imported prod databases had tables but no plugin registry
The claim poll holds a connection open server-side. Under gthread that
pinned one of a worker's 8 OS threads, so 14 agents at hold=25 left a
worker with 8 of 9 threads parked in timed sleep and UI requests hashed
to that worker waiting 12-24s. Hold was cut to 5s as an interim fix.
gevent removes the constraint rather than working around it: a held
connection is a greenlet and the per-worker ceiling is worker-connections
(2000), not 8 threads, so an idle hold no longer costs a UI request
anything. Measured at 700 simulated agents plus UI, integration and kiosk
traffic: zero errors, UI median 7.5ms, peak RSS 479MB. CPU is the binding
resource, not memory or DB connections.
With that gone the 5s hold is a liability. Hold length sets the fleet's
request rate, not its concurrency, because the agent re-polls immediately
on a 204 - so hold=5 is 5x the requests of hold=25, against a burst
bottleneck that measured as TLS handshake CPU. 25 also restores the
margin against the agent's MinIdlePollDuration=5s floor used to tell a
normal hold-window close apart from a transient failure; at 5 it was
~20ms.
Timeout raised to 60 so gunicorn cannot kill a healthy long-poll
mid-hold, and the access log now carries request duration - without it a
slow request is indistinguishable from a fast one and latency has to be
reconstructed from outside the container. Healthcheck moved off
POST /api/auth/login, which logged a 400 every 30s and exercised the
credential path from a probe.
A command reaching 'succeeded' only proves the agent ran the action, not that it posted a new telemetry snapshot. Reloading panels on command success alone re-rendered stale service/process rows, so a stopped process could still show running right after Refresh Status.
Add a lightweight telemetrymeta probe exposing lastreportedat and gate both the header Refresh Status action and inline row Start/Stop on that stamp advancing past a pre-action baseline. Polling is bounded so an offline or idle agent never hangs the button, and messaging distinguishes a confirmed refresh from a queued one.
Bring the .NET endpoint agent source (service, tray, installer) into the repo so Cameron can merge and test, with an agent/.gitignore keeping bin/obj/publish out. Includes the DncMain launch-path fix, tray single-file host env scrub, and best-effort file logger.
curl --fail exited nonzero on the login probe's 400 before the body reached grep VALIDATION_ERROR, so the healthcheck always failed and the container reported unhealthy while the app was fine. Drop --fail so grep decides pass/fail. Also register endpoint tables in PLUGIN_TABLE_OWNERS so plugin migrations can resolve their owned metadata.
PC records now carry Entra/Azure device identity so imported machines keep a durable link back to their directory object instead of matching on hostname alone. Adds azuredeviceid, azureobjectid, and azuredevicecategory to the Computer model with matching migrations, surfaces them read-only in PCDetail as an Entra Device Info card, and lets PCForm edit the device id directly. The computers plugin registers a machineassetnumber import hook that reconciles PC-to-machine links during bulk import and warns on unresolved or conflicting relationships.
Adds importsources adapters that normalize Azure device-group and Thor PC inventory exports into canonical ShopDB CSVs via hostname alignment, exposes register_import_hook and RowWarning on the shopdb.api contract surface (contract 0.21.0), and refreshes the Import Site Assets page with clearer source instructions. Includes reconcile_locations maintenance script and coverage for the new import paths.
Assign printers to a MACHINE and let whichever PC controls it install them, with
the observed half kept strictly apart from the assigned half: a collector report
can never write an assignment row. Adoption is explicit. Adds a singular
relationship type so defaultprinter can mean exactly one, client scripts that
converge a bay's queues and correct a drifted one in place, and a wave gate so a
fleet-wide driver rollout cannot stampede its own share.
On the container side: the compose stack never persisted the instance directory,
so a rebuild discarded plugins.json and every upload. It is a volume now, the
image ships instance/ owned by the app user so the mountpoint is writable, and
the database moves to MySQL 8.4 LTS, which the Windows runbook has recommended
since 8.0 went end of life. The image also could not build at all: the frontend
stage never copied the plugin staging script it runs.
Adds a topology migration guide covering IIS to Docker and back.
