The machine maintenance panel showed every date one calendar day early on this
site, and would show it a day late east of UTC.
lastmaintenancedate and nextmaintenancedate were DATETIME columns holding
midnight, and BaseModel.to_dict serialises a datetime as isoformat + 'Z', so
2026-12-15 00:00:00 went out as "2026-12-15T00:00:00Z" and the browser
converted it into local time. There is no time in a maintenance date: the form
offers a date picker, the CSV importer takes '2026-06-01', and the value is only
ever compared against other dates. Every sibling already models it correctly -
measuringtools.lastcalibrationdate, warranties.startdate and enddate are all
db.Date - so machines were the odd one out.
Migration 7d40 converts both columns; MySQL truncates a midnight time so no
data moves, and SQLite neither enforces nor needs it.
That exposed two more things. The route was assigning the raw request string to
the column, which a DATE column rejects outright - it now goes through the
strict parser from wave 2, so a mistyped maintenance date is refused with a 400
rather than stored or nulled. And BaseModel.to_dict had no branch for a plain
date, so one reached Flask's encoder and came out as an HTTP-date
("Thu, 15 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT") - which a browser parses back into a moment
and can still render as the day before. Dates now serialise as "2026-01-15",
with datetime checked first because it is a subclass of date.
Verified against MySQL on a live instance: the column is DATE, the API serves
2026-01-15, a mistyped date is refused with 400, and a rename on a machine that
has maintenance dates saves - the 500 from the audit-log fix in 5d81f50c, now
confirmed end to end rather than only in tests.
Scope: product
Six fixes that were ours regardless of what the sister site does. Four came out
of our own reviews; two you reported from the settings pages.
MAX_CONTENT_LENGTH was set nowhere. Every upload route caps its own payload, but
each of those checks runs after the body has arrived: the first touch of
request.form or request.files makes Werkzeug parse the whole multipart and spool
the file to a temp file, so a route can reject the content and still have paid
for the transfer and the disk. Three separate reviews found that shape in three
different routes, which makes it a property of the app rather than of any
handler. 128 MB, clearing the 64 MB agent binary with room for the envelope.
The naming gate excluded devnotes with --exclude-dir, which matches a directory
of that NAME at any depth - so a force-added plugins/<plugin>/devnotes/ was
invisible to every check in the file, ADR-015 included. Replaced with a path
anchored post-filter. Verified by planting the same site literal in root
devnotes/ AND in plugins/endpoints/devnotes/: the gate now reports exactly one,
the nested one. Before, it reported none.
BaseModel.to_dict walked __table__.columns and published every one, so a model
without an override published whatever it carried - including columns added
later by someone not thinking about this method. User has no override, so
User.to_dict() returned its bcrypt hash. Nothing calls it in a response path
today, which is luck rather than design. A blanket allowlist would empty the
output of all 34 models relying on the default, so this pins a floor instead:
named secret-bearing columns are never emitted, and a model may extend the set.
Eight tests, including a sweep over every mapped model.
ActionPicker's Esc handlers had .prevent but not .stop, so the event bubbled to
the wrapper and closed the whole picker instead of returning to the monitor list.
The branding page reported "error loading image" on the site and badge logos.
Two bugs stacked. The load failure was real: the preview used the stored value
as a raw src, and that value is root-relative, so under /shopdb or /ops it
resolved against the SERVER root and 404d - siteSettings.js wraps every logo in
withBase() and this page was the one place that did not. With that fixed two of
three were still invisible, because the shipped GE mark is fill="white" for the
dark sidebar and was rendering white-on-white. The preview tile now sits on a
mid-tone checker so artwork of any colour reads against it.
The floor-map levels table ran off the right with its cells crushed - nine
columns of inputs, no scroll wrapper, and .data-table is styled nowhere. My
first attempt reached for the global .table-container and made it WORSE: that
class also sets white-space: nowrap, and a full sentence of hint text lives in
one of the cells, so nowrap forced the table wider still. It now scrolls in a
local wrapper, the hint wraps, and the name input has a width instead of
collapsing to one character.
Suite 2377, frontend 324, gate green.
Scope: product
Make the app distributable to other GE Aerospace sites (one self-hosted
instance per site, ADR-004). GE values remain the shipped defaults; every
site-specific behavior is now a Setting an admin can change in the UI.
Settings-driven site config:
- Branding: site/QR/badge logos, favicon, primary color (upload endpoints
mirror the map-blueprint pattern; new Settings > Branding section).
- ServiceNow: search/incident/change URL templates ({ticket}), ticket
prefixes, enable toggle. Defaults point at the current
geaerospaceqa.service-now.com global search. Disabled = plain-text tickets.
- Employee-id regex (employeeid_pattern), printer hostname template,
QR label targets (qr_target_printer / qr_target_usb, blank = asset page,
else URL template with placeholders), usb_label_style (barcode|qr).
- West Jefferson floor-plan PNGs removed from the tree; generic placeholder
ships as the map default and sites upload their own blueprint.
Security closeout:
- dashboarddefaults writes now require admin.
- Collector: generic error messages (no str(exc) leak); API key accepted
via X-API-Key header only (BREAKING: querystring api_key removed).
- IP-based login rate limiting (AUTH_RATELIMIT_* knobs) atop account lockout.
- Setting.set() creation race fixed (IntegrityError retry).
Release engineering and docs:
- __version__ 0.5.0 (distinct from __contract_version__, ADR-007),
CHANGELOG.md, Gitea Actions CI config, frontend version aligned.
- One wizard-first install story across README/DEPLOY; new CONFIG.md,
UPGRADE.md, BACKUP-RESTORE.md; CLAUDE.md and ROADMAP de-staled.
- Dockerfile multi-stage build now bundles the frontend; compose binds
MySQL to 127.0.0.1; stale database/schema.sql and one-off SQL removed.
Debt and fixes:
- .query.get() -> db.session.get() sweep; datetime.utcnow() removed
(naive-UTC via timezone-aware now); users.py on authz decorators.
- Fixed 4 stale tests (slides feed shape, shopfloor splitperemployee,
plugin contract purity) and the USB label page field mapping (both usb
modes emit the cmmc shape: device_id/device_desc).
- Health endpoint reports the real version.
248 tests pass; naming/style check green; frontend builds; fresh-DB
flask db upgrade + seeds verified; QR targets verified by decoding
rendered codes.
