The log now has a stored, queryable copy for the diagnostics console:
every WARNING and above plus the request line of every request, kept
for log_retention_days (default 7, no "forever") and pruned hourly by
the new log_gc job.
Rows are built on the logging thread from the same redacted fields as
the stdout line, queued without blocking and written in batches by one
background thread on its own connection. A full queue or a failed write
drops and reports instead of retrying. Flood control keeps 30 of any
one message per minute plus a count of the rest; anonymous request
lines are capped at 60 a minute per client, and the client address is
never stored. Deleting an account deletes its stored events.
Measured on prod first: a YouTube RSS outage wrote 11k warnings in four
hours, one per channel per poll. The poll now writes one warning with
per-reason counts and a few examples, and a failure on our side gets
one traceback per poll instead of one per channel.
Three operator gaps, all found the same way — a person could not sign up and the
app showed nobody anything.
- DELETE /api/admin/invites/{id} with a delete control on both the pending
requests and the previously-decided list. Deny keeps the row so the person
cannot immediately re-ask; delete forgets the address. Refused with 409 while
a User row exists for it, because is_allowed reads that row and removing it
would revoke a live user's access with no other sign — the list ships
has_account so the UI withholds the button instead of offering one that fails.
- Email is fail-soft by design, which had come to mean invisible. _send() now
records an email_undelivered notification for every admin when a message is
skipped or rejected, naming the message that was lost, throttled to one an
hour. /api/me carries email_configured, driving a standing warning on
Configuration → Email / SMTP and above the access-request list.
- The sign-in card's Create account / Forgot password / Didn't get the email
views are history entries (useHistorySubview), so Back returns to the previous
view instead of only moving the address bar.
Also: the per-test rate-limiter reset sweeps every loaded app.* module rather
than a hand-kept list of three — this change added a limiter outside it.
Replaces the activation added in ea931dc, which round 2 of the review showed was
a real weakening: on a no-SMTP instance it made a standing whitelist entry a
bearer grant — the first anonymous party to register an approved-but-unclaimed
address got an immediately usable account under that identity, with no
attestation, no admin action and no signal anywhere. The verify-time activation
had the same shape one step removed, and neither site ran the SEC-10 preset-
password guard or left an audit trail.
Keep a human in the loop instead. An approval granted before any account existed
was a decision about the ADDRESS, so registration reopens the invite
(upsert_pending_invite gains revive_approved, used only by the register worker).
The request lands in the Access-requests queue, approving it runs
_activate_user_by_email — and with it revoke_preset_password_if_unverified — and
the account activates. One mechanism, already audited, no new grant path, and
the "awaiting admin approval" copy is honest again.
The explicit commit from the previous commit still matters: with an invite
already pending, upsert returns without committing and _issue_token is gated on
SMTP, so a no-SMTP registration was still being rolled back.
Also from round 2: gate the admin notice on a fresh decision (matching the two
other upsert callers) so a retry no longer re-pings every admin, and reset the
module-level rate limiters between tests — the suite pooled every login into one
300s window and was two logins short of failing an unrelated test with a 429.
Address the /code-review findings on the S2 test-net:
- as_user no longer sets a global `lambda: user` override that two users in one
test would collide on; the shared current_user override now resolves the caller
from an x-test-user header, and each returned client tags its own requests, so
as_user(a)/as_user(b) are independent (#1).
- override_dep records the prior value per dependency key and restores it on
teardown instead of a blanket dependency_overrides.clear(), so fixtures compose
without clobbering each other (#5).
- a _configured fixture bakes the post-setup state into client/as_user, and the
per-test inline monkeypatch / autouse duplicates are removed (#4).
- the feed keyset walk asserts all seeded rows surfaced before comparing, so a
seeding regression can't make the sorts pass vacuously (#3).
The DB-backed lane and the two ffmpeg tests skipped SILENTLY when the DB was
unreachable or ffmpeg was absent, so `siftlode check` could print green while
~60 tests never ran. Make the compose lane authoritative:
- SIFTLODE_TEST_REQUIRE_DB=1 in docker-compose.test.yml; conftest.pytest_configure
turns a would-be skip (no Postgres, or no ffmpeg) into a hard UsageError.
- install ffmpeg in Dockerfile.test so the thumbnail/poster tests actually run.
- `-rs` in pytest.ini so skip reasons are always visible.
Add the shared TestClient fixtures the risk-core suites build on: `make_user`
(create + commit a login-ready User), `client` (real auth/session stack, no
current_user override — for login/wallet/epoch), and `as_user` (a client
pre-authenticated as a given user, for tests that aren't exercising login).
/code-review high on S3 — 3 low findings, 2 fixed, 1 no-change:
- _db_reachable() now probes via a throwaway engine with connect_timeout=3, so a
slow/firewalled DATABASE_URL can't hang the whole suite at import (the app engine
has no connect timeout).
- test_plex_facets sets the "configured" gate flag via monkeypatch (auto-restored)
instead of poking state._configured_cache in a manual finally — no leak risk, and
the now-unnecessary mark_configured DB write is dropped.
No change: test_plex_jsonb_normalize copying migration 0060's SQL is deliberate —
migrations must stay self-contained (no app imports) and a shipped migration is
immutable, so there's no real drift to guard against.
Gate: ruff clean; DB lane 176 passed; pure-logic 172 passed / 4 skipped (fast).
The suite was pure-logic only (R2 S2b deferred the DB lane). Add an opt-in `db`
fixture (tests/conftest.py) that hands a test a real session against an ephemeral
Postgres; schema is built with `alembic upgrade head` (the real prod schema needs
the unaccent extension + unaccent_simple TS config that create_all can't provide,
and this also proves the migration chain applies). Each test starts from a TRUNCATEd
clean DB so tests that COMMIT — the whole point, for R6 S2's transaction work —
don't leak.
backend/docker-compose.test.yml wires an ephemeral tmpfs pg + the test image. When
no Postgres is reachable (a plain `docker run`), the DB tests SKIP and the pure-logic
lane is unchanged: 172 passed, 2 skipped. With the DB: 174 passed.
test_db_lane.py smoke-proves commit round-trip + TRUNCATE isolation. The gate wiring
(siftlode.sh) lands in the ops repo.
