backupService.getFilesToBackupInternal() enumerated a fixed list of
storage subdirectories (events/active, events/archived, thumbnails,
previews, heroes, uploads) and silently omitted the entire
business-docs/ tree. Every CRM PDF artefact and signature image fell
outside the in-app scheduled backup — restoring the DB without the
PDFs would have left every *_path column on quotes/contracts/invoices
as a broken FK and lost forensic evidence (the customer signature
PNG/JPG drawn on the public signing page is referenced by
contracts.signed_customer_signature_path; the rendered contract PDF
is referenced by signed_pdf_path with a stored signed_pdf_sha256
that would have nothing to verify against; wet-uploaded contracts
and admin-imported historical invoices are irrecoverable by design
since no renderer can reproduce them).
Single new scanDirectory call after the existing uploads scan,
covering:
- business-docs/quote/<year>/*.pdf
- business-docs/contract/<year>/*.pdf
- business-docs/contract/signatures/<contract_id>/*.{png,jpg}
- business-docs/invoice/<year>/*.pdf
- business-docs/invoice-imports/<year>/*.pdf
- and incidentally business-docs/dev-test/ (managed by adminDev.js,
bounded to 7 newest files, harmless to back up)
Verified that no migration is needed: hasFileChanged returns
!existing || checksum mismatch, so the first backup after this lands
flags every business-docs/** file as new and copies it. Restore path
in restoreService.performFilesRestore uses fs.mkdir({ recursive:
true }) on path.dirname(targetPath), so business-docs subdirectories
are recreated automatically from manifest entries — no restore-side
code change required.
Integration test pins the contract so a future refactor cannot
silently drop business-docs again.
The shell-script backup at scripts/backup.sh already covered all of
this via blanket `tar -czf storage`; only the in-app service was
affected.
