Ports the corporate-GitHub wilm branch onto main, keeping the two branches
separate. Thirteen upstream commits arrive with their authorship intact; the
review fixes and the portability work below are on top.
What arrives:
endpoints plugin - a ShopDB agent reporting endpoint state, telemetry,
services and interfaces, with a command channel the agent
long-polls. Ingest stays on the generic collector route
(ADR-006); the agent key is a UI-managed single-scope
token whose revocation is an instant kill switch.
computers policies - Configuration and Business Policies (RMM-style), scope
trees validated at write time, actions checked against
the endpoints command allowlist. Feature-gated: every
route 404s while the setting is off, so enabling it can
never half-expose the surface.
asset CSV import - templates, a collector script carrying the site path, and
a validate-then-commit import. A plugin can own a virtual
column plus a post-write row hook, which is how a PC's
machine number becomes a controls link without a
hand-built relationships sheet.
agent/ - the Windows agent and its installer.
Contract 0.21.0 -> 0.24.0, additive throughout: register_import_hook (0.22),
mint/list/revoke_service_token (0.23), collector_authorized (0.24). The stability
table had no rows for any of them and now does.
MySQL 5.6 portability. The branch stored three policy columns as sa.JSON, the
only JSON columns in the product, and 5.6 has no JSON type: the migration failed
with a bare syntax error near the word JSON. They are TEXT now, through a
JSONText type decorator, so all seventeen call sites still read and write dicts.
The convention elsewhere is already TEXT (guides.blocksjson,
geenforce.manifestjson).
Review fixes carried on top:
- six policy GETs were jwt_required(optional=True), which authenticates a
caller without checking anything; they require computers.view now, and six
redundant jwt_required decorators are gone
- the agent installer took a default BaseUrl and CollectorKey, so a mistyped
run silently pointed an endpoint at the wrong instance; both are mandatory
and a non-https BaseUrl throws unless -AllowInsecureHttp is passed
- a committing CSV import wrote no audit row
Documentation: the 34 new routes are described in docs/api-inventory.json, which
is hand-maintained on purpose, and the generated spec now covers 331 paths and
477 operations across 22 surfaces. DEVELOPMENT-SETUP's 1071 troubleshooting row
said "use MySQL 8 for dev" and now gives the actual fix, including the trap that
5.6 downgrades ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC to Compact with a warning instead of an error.
Full suite 2123 passed, vitest 260 passed, all seventeen plugin chains migrate
clean on MySQL 5.6 and the naming, docs, parity and read-surface gates are green.

# $Name plugin
|
|
|
|
$description
|
|
|
|
This plugin was generated by `flask plugin new $name`. It satisfies the framework contract out of the box. Replace the example model and routes with your domain.
|
|
|
|
## What's here
|
|
|
|
- `plugin.py` - the `${Name}Plugin` class extending `BasePlugin`. Edit `init_app` for custom setup, `on_install` to seed reference data.
|
|
- `models/$name.py` - example Asset extension table. Replace `examplefield` with your domain fields.
|
|
- `api/routes.py` - example list and detail endpoints. Add CRUD as needed.
|
|
- `schemas/__init__.py` - marshmallow schema stub for request/response validation.
|
|
- `tests/test_plugin.py` - smoke tests asserting contract compliance.
|
|
- `manifest.json` - plugin metadata. Bump `version` on changes; keep `core_version` range broad.
|
|
|
|
## Common edits
|
|
|
|
| You want to... | Do this |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| Add a hook (search, navigation, dashboard widget) | Override the method in `${Name}Plugin`. See the PLUGIN-HOOKS wiki page. |
|
|
| Accept external collector data | Override `get_collector_schema()` to return a JSON Schema. See ADR-006. |
|
|
| Add another model | Create `models/<other>.py`, export it in `models/__init__.py`, return it in `get_models()`. |
|
|
| Add a CLI command | Override `get_cli_commands()` returning a list of Click commands. |
|
|
|
|
## Frontend
|
|
|
|
Vue components for this plugin live under `frontend/src/views/$name/` (per project convention). Backend scaffolding does not generate frontend yet; copy from an existing plugin's view files (e.g., `frontend/src/views/network/`) as a starting point.
|
|
|
|
## Install and run
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
flask plugin install $name
|
|
flask db migrate -m "Add $name plugin tables"
|
|
flask db upgrade
|
|
pytest plugins/$name/tests/
|
|
```
