Backups: stop storing credentials, and fix a dedup chain that never matched
The NTLARS/DNC registry carries an FTP password in cleartext and it was stored verbatim. That put it in the backuprevisions table, on the revision panel which renders values, and in the download route which hands back a ready-to-import .reg - so anyone holding backups.view could read it off a web page. Redaction happens at PARSE, so the secret never reaches the database at all. Redacting on display would have left it at rest and one query away. What is deliberately NOT done is dropping the value silently. This codec already refuses to discard an unparseable value, precisely because a backup that looks complete and restores a machine with a setting missing is the worst outcome. A redacted value keeps its name, is listed in the projection, and renders as a COMMENT naming what must be set by hand. Emitting a placeholder as the password would produce a machine that looks restored and cannot connect, and the technician would go debugging the network. scripts/redact_backup_secrets.py scrubs revisions recorded before this, dry run by default. It leaves contenthash alone: the hash identifies the configuration a bay reported, so rewriting it would make every bay's next post look like a change and insert a duplicate revision across the fleet. Separately, sourcehostname is now normalized at ingest. samesource() maps '' to IS NULL for the query while the insert stored the raw '', so rows written by a client posting an empty hostname could never match their own next post: every post inserted, the table grew without bound, and the history filled with identical entries nobody could read. Whitespace did the same thing more quietly. |

Let a baseline meet a table that is already there
Reported: `flask plugin upgrade-all` failed the tools plugin with "table securesendsecrets already exists". Every post-cutover baseline emitted a plain op.create_table. That is correct only while a table's existence and its plugin's Alembic stamp can never disagree, and they can. Anything that builds tables from the models - db.create_all(), which `flask db-utils create-all` calls - creates them and stamps nothing. A run that creates a table and then fails before its stamp commits leaves the same split, and re-running is the obvious thing to try. In both cases upgrade-all meets existing tables with an unstamped chain and the create is fatal. Nothing caught it because the migration test DROPS the post-cutover tables db.create_all() built before running upgrade-all. That arranges the one state where an unguarded create works, and never the state the report came from. The new test is the same sequence with the drop removed for the plugin under test. create_table_if_missing and create_index_if_missing are in alembic_template.py next to create_plugin_tables, which had the idempotency rule right and turns out to be called by nobody - its docstring claimed every 0001 used it. Fixed the docstring rather than rewiring the baselines onto it, because the reason they hand-write their DDL still stands: the helper's per-plugin MetaData cannot resolve a foreign key to a core table at CreateTable-compile time. INDEXES ARE MATCHED ON COLUMNS, NOT NAME, and that distinction matters. The two creators disagree about names - db.create_all() takes SQLAlchemy's default convention (ix_securesendsecrets_token) and a baseline spells it the way this repo's naming rules require (ixsecuresendsecretstoken). A name-keyed guard would have called the index missing and added a second one over the same column, which MySQL permits with a warning, so every affected site would have quietly grown duplicates. The test asserts no table ends up with two indexes over the same columns. Applied to all nine table-creating plugin migrations, not just the tools baseline that was reported: the four later migrations that create tables have the same exposure, and geenforce, measuringtools, printedparts and backups are the same defect waiting for a different site. WHAT THIS DOES NOT FIX. It makes a baseline idempotent, not a whole chain. A longer chain can still meet an ALTER whose column is already present - printedparts adding gagelabtag to a table create_all built at head is the case that showed up while testing. Guarding every op one at a time is the wrong answer to that; a database built from the models is already AT head and its chains want stamping rather than replaying, and there is no `flask plugin stamp` today. Left alone deliberately rather than half-built, and the new test is scoped to single-baseline plugins so it does not pretend otherwise. |

migrations: commit the plugin chains too, and bound what re-ran
Core's Alembic env got connection.commit() when the stamp bug was found; the per-plugin template did not. MySQL commits DDL implicitly, which flushes everything queued before it including the previous migration's version stamp, and the LAST migration of a run has no DDL after it - so its stamp rolled back at close while its schema change survived. flask plugin upgrade-all then exited 0 having silently re-run that migration, and re-ran it again on every deploy after. Invisible for exactly as long as every plugin head happened to be idempotent. Two were not. backups 0003 cleared lastseenat for EVERY row, which is correct once and destroys evidence on each repeat. It is now scoped to the backfill's actual signature, COALESCE(collectedat, createdat) - the expression 0002 wrote - plus a date bound. Both conditions are needed. Matching on collectedat alone misses every row whose collectedat is NULL, so precisely the rows carrying the most invented value would have kept it forever; and value equality is not a signature on MySQL, where db.DateTime is second-precision and the collector writes both stamps in one statement, so a genuinely fresh revision would read as a backfill and be wiped. SQLite keeps microseconds, which is why no test could show it. geenforce 0003 added a column unconditionally, so it failed on a fresh database built from the models and on any re-run. Guarded like network0003prefix. |

dashboard: fix what a real fleet showed, which tests could not
Three faults, visible only once the board ran against production data. BACKUPS SAID THE WHOLE FLEET HAD STOPPED. The lastseenat backfill was wrong. It seeded from collectedat, reasoning that the last change was the last provable moment - but an unchanged config writes no revision, so a machine whose settings last changed nine months ago got a nine-month-old lastseenat and was instantly reported as a dead backup. Every chain lit up at once, which is worse than no card: it says the site is broken when it is fine. The honest value is NULL. Before the column existed nothing recorded when a config was last confirmed, and inventing a date does not change that. Migration 0003 clears the backfill, and staleness now IGNORES a NULL chain rather than substituting timestamps that mean something else. A chain becomes measurable the first time its PC posts, which for NTLARS is within a day. TONER READ "None%". The supply dict has no 'percent' key - it is 'remaining'. Supply names are also shortened, because "Black Toner Level 4%" spends three words saying what the card already says. THE CARDS READ AS WALLS OF TEXT. Rows wrapped into paragraphs and a card with forty PCs pushed everything below it off the screen. Now: at most five rows with "and N more", one line per row that truncates rather than wraps, meta pushed right and dropped first since it matters least, and severity reduced to a small dot beside an uppercase label instead of a coloured card - six severity-painted cards read as a crisis, which is how a board stops being read. Worth recording that none of this could fail in a test. Every one needed real data on a real fleet. |

backups: record that a config was checked, not only that it changed
The stale-backup card could not be built as designed, and the reason is more important than the card. Dedup means an unchanged configuration writes no revision, so collectedat moves only on a CHANGE. A machine stable for six months has a six-month-old newest revision and is perfectly healthy. Keying a staleness card on revision age would have flagged most of the fleet - exactly the noise that makes a board worth ignoring. Underneath that: ShopDB could not distinguish those cases at all. On a no-op the server returned "unchanged" and wrote nothing, so "we checked yesterday and it matched" was discarded. That fact is the one thing a backup system must be able to prove, and the only record of it was a line in a log file on the PC. lastseenat records the check rather than the change. Touched on every matching post including the no-op; set on creation, since a new revision has by definition just been seen; backfilled from collectedat or createdat so existing rows start from the last moment the config can be PROVEN current, rather than from now - claiming a check that never happened would be worse than silence. The card keys on it, one row per CHAIN rather than per asset: a machine with two part markers can have one still reporting while the other stopped, and a per-asset view would report the machine as fine. It stays deliberately silent about assets never backed up, because whether one SHOULD be is a question only the manifest can answer, and guessing would list a hundred healthy machines. The rule lives in services/staleness.py rather than the route, so it is testable without an auth layer in the way - the same split retention.py uses. Threshold is backups_staledays, default 3, and 0 disables the card. |

backups plugin: per-asset config backups with revision history
Adds a kind-pluggable backups plugin. Configuration captured from a PC is filed against the MACHINE it controls, with a revision history and download back to the native format. NTLARS/DNC is the first kind. Settings live in the controlling PC's registry but describe the machine, so revisions attach to the machine's asset and carry no foreign key to the PC: history survives a PC being replaced or deleted, and sourcehostname records the handover. Storage splits by kind. Parseable kinds store a dialect-neutral JSON projection in ShopDB and re-render on download; opaque vendor formats (part marker and similar) keep their bytes on the SFLD share with ShopDB holding metadata and the UNC pointer. Two .reg dialects exist in the wild: NTLARS's own Save... export omits the WOW6432Node path segment, scripted exports include it. Parsing strips whichever root matched, so a stored revision commits to neither and download offers both (NTLARS Load... by default, WOW6432Node for direct reg import). Getting this backwards is silent, so the dedup hash deliberately excludes sourcedialect and both dialects of one config dedup to a single revision. Dedup is load-bearing: the collector runs every GE-Enforce cycle across the fleet, so a revision is inserted only when the content hash differs from that asset's latest for that kind. A freshly imaged PC opens NTLARS with a blank General tab. Recording that would make an empty config the newest revision exactly when someone needs the last good one, so a blank MachineNo is rejected rather than accepted as a change. Two of the 320 known-good backups on the share already have that shape. DNC Info card summarises the latest revision on the machine page: General (Cnc, NcIF, HostType), eFocas, Serial, NTSHR when populated (only 18 of 147 machines), and MARK when the machine is a marker. MARK is gated on Cnc=MARKER or the ShopDB machine type, not on the MARK key having content: MARK carries serial defaults on 145 of 147 machines and DncPatterns reads YES on 103 including ordinary lathes, so neither identifies a marker. The info card is owned by the kind (BackupKind.infopanel/buildinfo) and served by a generic endpoint, so the expected successor to DNC ships its own card by adding a class rather than changing the plugin or the panel wiring. Also: schedule and retention settings with a prune that never drops the newest or the oldest revision, and scripts/import_ntlars_backups.py to seed history from the existing per-machine .reg files (144 of 147 resolve to assets). Codec verified against all 320 real backups: round-trips clean through both dialects. Bay-side generation verified on Windows against reg.exe export. |
