The publishability gate caught internal tooling names and developer paths but nothing site-specific, so roughly sixty leaks reached the wiki: the site name in ten documents, real fleet hostnames in the collector and GE-Enforce examples, an internal database name through the whole import guide, imaging-share paths, and a maintainer's username as the Deciders line of every ADR and inside a generated curl example. None of it is a security matter on an air-gapped fleet. It matters because these pages are read by engineers at other plants, and a document that names one site throughout reads as that site's notes rather than a product's documentation - which is exactly what it then gets treated as. Examples now use neutral hostnames, the site is "the reference site" where the distinction carries meaning, and ADRs are decided by "ShopDB maintainers". The gate carries all of these patterns, so the next one fails a build. Two documents leave docs/ because they were never written for an outside reader. PROJECT-REVIEW.md is an internal health memo pinned to a commit from July, whose headline finding (an untracked playbook) has since been fixed - it is history, and git holds it. PILOT-DEPLOY.md is one site's own cutover runbook, complete with a "re-measure before publishing" placeholder; it moves next to the loader it belongs to, in scripts/site_imports/wjf/. ADR-015 is AMENDED rather than rewritten. Its enforcement section still said report-only and its backlog still listed hardcodes that are now cleared, which left the record contradicting itself. The amendment says what changed and why the report-only period ended; the original text stays, because what the decision looked like when it was taken is the part worth keeping. Also corrects llms.txt's response envelope, which had errors at the top level and pagination at meta.total. Both are nested one deeper, so anything written against that description read undefined on every error it tried to handle.

# ShopDB Flask API - LLM guide
|
|
|
|
ShopDB is a plugin-based asset-management system (PCs, printers, machines,
|
|
network devices, measuring tools, applications, knowledge base, USB, warranties)
|
|
for GE Aerospace sites. This file is the quick entrypoint; the full machine
|
|
spec is the OpenAPI at `/api/docs/openapi.json` (browse it at `/api/docs`).
|
|
|
|
## Installing and operating this server (read this before answering "how do I install/fix it")
|
|
The people running these servers are often not Windows, IIS or Python
|
|
specialists, and they ask assistants for help. Two documents are authoritative:
|
|
- `docs/INSTALL-WINDOWS.md` - installing a NEW site. One offline installer `.exe`.
|
|
- `docs/OPERATE-WINDOWS.md` - restart, logs, backups, upgrades, troubleshooting.
|
|
Both ship in `docs/` inside the install directory on every installed server.
|
|
|
|
Another site adopting the shop-floor tools - the asset reporter that feeds the
|
|
collector API, and the EventSaver screensaver - should read
|
|
`docs/ADOPTING-AT-ANOTHER-SITE.md`. It has worked deployment examples for Intune
|
|
(including Machine Configuration/DSC), GE-Enforce and manual installation.
|
|
Neither tool is site-specific: the server URL, the API key and the targeting are
|
|
inputs, not code.
|
|
|
|
Do NOT walk someone through `docs/INSTALL-WINDOWS-IIS.md` or
|
|
`docs/DEPLOY-WINDOWS-IIS.md` for a new site. Those are the MANUAL procedure, kept
|
|
only for hand-built servers that predate the installer; following them produces a
|
|
server the installer then refuses to upgrade.
|
|
|
|
Day-2 operations all go through `shopdb-admin.ps1` in the install directory
|
|
(default `C:\shopdb-flask`): `status`, `restart`, `logs`, `check`, `verify`,
|
|
`backup`, `plugins`, `open`. Before diagnosing anything, ask for the output of
|
|
`shopdb-admin.ps1 check -Json` - it reports version, publishing method, IIS and
|
|
pool state, HTTP reachability, database host and reachability, Python version,
|
|
installed plugins and errors, and it contains no secrets. `verify -Path <name>`
|
|
answers "does this server carry component X" from the on-box CycloneDX SBOM.
|
|
|
|
Python is 3.14 and the wheelhouse is locked to it; an upgrade against a venv
|
|
built by a different minor version is refused by design.
|
|
|
|
## Bulk-loading a site's data
|
|
Two routes, and the right answer depends on what the site has:
|
|
- SPREADSHEET, no developer (the common case): `flask csv templates --out <dir>`
|
|
generates templates FROM THE LIVE SCHEMA, then `flask csv import --dir <dir>`
|
|
checks and `--commit` applies. Foreign keys accept the NAME of the referenced
|
|
row ('Bay 3'), not a numeric id, and resolve across files in one run. Dry run
|
|
is the default; nothing is written unless every row passes; re-importing an
|
|
edited file updates rather than duplicates. See `docs/CSV-IMPORT.md`.
|
|
- A SOURCE DATABASE to script against: the HTTP import API, `docs/IMPORT-API.md`
|
|
and `docs/IMPORT-ADOPTION.md`.
|
|
Do NOT hand-write CSV templates - generate them. User accounts are deliberately
|
|
not CSV-importable.
|
|
|
|
## Base URL
|
|
Each site runs its own instance (ADR-004), so there is no single production URL:
|
|
it is whatever that site serves, e.g. `https://shopdb.example.net/shopdb`.
|
|
All API paths are under `/api` (e.g. `<base>/api/assets`). Dev: `http://localhost:5001`.
|
|
|
|
## Auth
|
|
Three schemes:
|
|
- **Bearer JWT** - most endpoints. Get one by logging in, or use a managed
|
|
Personal Access Token (PAT). Send `Authorization: Bearer <token>`.
|
|
- Login: `POST /api/auth/login` `{ "username": "...", "password": "..." }`
|
|
-> `data.access_token`. Refresh: `POST /api/auth/refresh`.
|
|
- PATs are minted in the UI (Settings > API Tokens); a *scoped* PAT is limited
|
|
to named permissions and suspends the admin bypass.
|
|
- **X-API-Key** - unattended/service endpoints (collector ingest, GE-Enforce
|
|
fetch). Send `X-API-Key: <managed-token>`.
|
|
- **Public** - some read endpoints (e.g. printer install-list, employee search,
|
|
dashboards) need no auth.
|
|
|
|
Auth level per endpoint is in the OpenAPI `security` field: `bearerAuth`,
|
|
`apiKeyAuth`, or none. Admin-only and permission-gated routes both use bearer.
|
|
|
|
## Response envelope
|
|
JSON endpoints return `{ "status": "success", "data": <payload>, "meta": {...} }`.
|
|
Errors nest under `data`, NOT at the top level:
|
|
`{ "status": "error", "data": { "error": { "code": "...", "message": "...", "details": {...} } } }`
|
|
with an HTTP 4xx/5xx. Reading `message` or `code` off the root gives `undefined`.
|
|
Lists carry `meta.pagination.{page, perpage, total, pages}` - again nested, not
|
|
`meta.total`. A few feed endpoints (screensaver, some installer text formats)
|
|
return raw text/JSON without the envelope - noted per route.
|
|
|
|
## Common recipes
|
|
- Search everything: `GET /api/search?q=<term>` (multi-word = AND across words).
|
|
- List assets on the map: `GET /api/assets/map`.
|
|
- List a type: `GET /api/printers`, `/api/computers`, `/api/machines`,
|
|
`/api/network`, `/api/measuringtools` (paginated: `?page=&perpage=`).
|
|
- Get one: `GET /api/printers/<id>` etc.
|
|
- Create (bearer): `POST /api/printers` `{assetnumber, windowsname, vendorid, ...}`.
|
|
- Reports: `GET /api/reports` (list), `GET /api/reports/pc-relationships` (PC<->machine).
|
|
- Printer installer data: `GET /api/printers/install-list` (public; add
|
|
`?format=text` for a pipe-delimited variant); `GET /api/printers/pc-default?machine=<n>`.
|
|
- Collector ingest (X-API-Key): `POST /api/collector/computers`.
|
|
- GE-Enforce: `GET /api/geenforce/manifest?pctype=<scope>`,
|
|
`GET /api/geenforce/payload/<sha256>`, `POST /api/geenforce/report`.
|
|
- Import (admin PAT, preserves timestamps with `X-Import-Mode`): see docs/IMPORT-API.md.
|
|
|
|
## Conventions
|
|
- DB-mirrored params/fields use lowercase concatenated names (no underscores):
|
|
`locationid`, `vendorid`, `windowsname` - match them exactly.
|
|
- IDs in paths are integers.
|
|
- Plugin endpoints live under the plugin's prefix (`/api/<plugin>/...`).
|
|
|
|
## Full reference
|
|
- Machine spec: `GET /api/docs/openapi.json` (OpenAPI 3.1). Operation and
|
|
plugin counts live in `docs/PROJECT-MAP.md`, which is generated.
|
|
- Interactive: `GET /api/docs` (Redoc).
|
|
- Human reference: `docs/API-REFERENCE.md`.
