The legacy gallery router mounted at /api/events exposed create/list/update/
delete/extend guarded by adminAuth ALONE — no requirePermission, no
requireEventOwnership. adminAuth only checks the token is a valid type:'admin'
session, which every back-office role holds, down to read-only `viewer`. So any
non-super-admin account could:
- GET /api/events → every gallery's bcrypt password_hash, share_token, and
client name/email (the list handler selects * and mapEventForApi keeps
those columns),
- PUT /api/events/:id → reset any gallery's password (full takeover),
- DELETE /api/events/:id → delete any gallery,
all bypassing the per-photographer ownership isolation the canonical
/api/admin/events router enforces. Affects any instance with more than the
single super_admin.
Fix: remove the legacy router entirely (mount + require + src/routes/events.js).
It was a superseded duplicate of /api/admin/events and unused by the frontend
EXCEPT for one live route — POST /:id/extend (the "Extend expiration" UI action,
which hit /api/events/:id/extend via the api client's /api base). That route is
migrated to the canonical mount as POST /api/admin/events/:id/extend with the
same guards as every other gallery mutation (adminAuth + requirePermission
('events.edit') + requireEventOwnership), and the frontend is repointed to it.
Behaviour of the extend itself is unchanged (expires_at + reactivate).
Verified end-to-end on a booted instance: /api/events (all methods) now 404;
/api/admin/events/:id/extend returns 401 unauth, 200 for the owner, 403 for a
non-owning editor; the full login→create→extend flow works. Adds a regression
test pinning the router removal and the extend ownership check.
Previously "Continue" on the token step only checked the field was
non-empty; a wrong token wasn't caught until the final submit, after the
user had filled in email + password. Add a non-burning verify:
- backend: POST /setup/verify-token constant-time compares the token
without consuming it (createInitialAdmin still claims it atomically on
submit), gated on no-admin-exists and rate-limited like /setup/admin.
- frontend: step-1 "Continue" calls verifyToken and only advances on a
valid token; a wrong token shows the invalidToken error on the field,
429 -> too-many-attempts, 409 -> redirect to login.
Adds integration tests for accept-without-burn / reject / closed-once-set.
Issue 3 from #699 (@alexvaltchev's report): expose a custom-named short
URL per event that bots scrape for OG previews and browsers redirect to
the underlying gallery. WhatsApp / iMessage / Facebook cache the OG
metadata by the URL they crawl, so the SHORT URL becomes the cache key
— admins can rotate or split-test underlying gallery URLs without
re-pushing a fresh link to clients.
Additive feature; no existing route, table, or column is modified.
## Backend
- `gallery_short_urls` table (migration 150): id, short_slug UNIQUE,
event_id FK CASCADE, target_path TEXT, created_by/at, hit_count,
last_hit_at, deleted_at/by. hasTable-guarded so the migration is
idempotent on re-run.
- `src/services/galleryShortUrlService.js` — validator + CRUD +
resolver. Slug rules: `/^[a-z0-9](?:[a-z0-9-]{0,62}[a-z0-9])?$/`,
reserved blocklist (admin, api, auth, gallery, og, s, login, ...).
target_path snapshots at create-time from the event + global
short-URL toggle, so a later flip of the toggle does NOT silently
change where existing short URLs resolve.
- `src/routes/adminShortUrls.js` — `GET/POST
/api/admin/events/:eventId/short-urls`, `DELETE
/api/admin/short-urls/:id`. Structured errors: 400 INVALID_SLUG,
409 SLUG_TAKEN (with `suggested`), 404 EVENT_NOT_FOUND. Gated by
events.view / events.edit + requireEventOwnership.
- `server.js` /s/:shortSlug public route. Bot UA → server-render the
same OG metadata the existing /og/gallery/<slug> handler produces,
then override og:url to point at /s/<shortSlug> itself (cache-key
invariant — social platforms key by the URL they scrape).
Browser UA → 302 to target_path. Soft-deleted slug → 410 Gone
(intentional-delete signal, distinct from 404 unknown slug).
Hit accounting is fire-and-forget.
## Frontend
- `services/shortUrls.service.ts` — list/create/remove.
- `components/admin/ShortUrlsCard.tsx` — per-event card on the
EventDetailsPage. Form for custom or auto-generated slug, list with
copy-to-clipboard + soft-delete. SLUG_TAKEN error surfaces the
service's `suggested` slug with a "use suggested" button.
- i18n: events.shortUrls.* added to EN + DE.
## Tests
78 new tests, all passing:
- `__tests__/utils/galleryShortUrlValidation.test.js` (48) — pure-
function tests for validateSlug: accepts/rejects, reserved-slug
blocklist, path-traversal + URL-injection vectors.
- `__tests__/integration/galleryShortUrls.test.js` (19) — service
layer against a real SQLite DB. Covers custom + auto-generated
slugs, collision + SLUG_TAKEN + suggested, target_path
snapshotting (backward-compat invariant), soft-delete + slug
rotation, hit counting.
- `__tests__/integration/galleryShortUrlRoute.test.js` (11) —
HTTP-level: 302 redirect for browser UA, 200 + OG HTML for bot UA,
og:url canonical points at /s/<slug>, 410 for soft-deleted +
orphaned events, 404 unknown + malformed.
Regression sweep: 47 existing migration-chain integration tests still
pass; migration 150 is additive only.
## Backward compatibility
- Existing `/gallery/<slug>`, `/gallery/<32-hex-share-token>`,
`/gallery/<slug>/show/<token>`, `/og/gallery/<slug>`,
`/og/gallery/<slug>/cover` routes are untouched.
- The `/s/` namespace is new; no existing route lives there.
- Migration 150 only ADDs the new table — no ALTERs on existing
schema, no destructive changes.
- target_path is snapshotted at create-time so flipping the global
"Use short gallery URLs" setting after a short URL exists does NOT
change where that short URL resolves.
Two SSR-OG injection bugs reported by @alexvaltchev. Both made his link
previews fall back to the brand logo + site-wide tagline instead of the
event-specific name/photo, even though the bot UA was hitting our
already-existing OG handler. He compensated with a Cloudflare Worker as
SSR middleware — which then created bug 3 below (og:image at the
auth-gated /api/.../hero/ path, not the public /og/.../cover one), so
Instagram never rendered the image either.
## Bug A — slideshow URLs miss the OG handler entirely
`/gallery/<slug>/show/<token>` has 3 segments after `/gallery/`. The OG
route was wired only at `/gallery/:slug/:token?` (1-2 segments), so
slideshow links fell through to the SPA-catchall `/gallery/*` and never
invoked the OG handler at all. Added a second route handler for the
3-segment slideshow shape, sharing the same intercept middleware so a
recognised social crawler still gets the rich preview.
## Bug B — share-token-only URLs resolve to nothing
`/gallery/<32-char-share-token>` (the form produced when migration 525's
short-URLs option strips the event slug) routes to the OG handler with
`slug=<token>`. resolveSlug then queries `events.slug = <token>`, which
never matches because the token is in a separate `share_token` column.
Result: falls through to the "no event found" branch and serves the
generic site-wide OG.
Fix: when the slug shape matches a 32-char hex AND the slug lookup
missed AND no redirect rule applies, try `events.share_token = slug` as
a final fallback. Real slugs are kebab/dot/underscore mixes, never pure
32-hex, so the extra DB roundtrip is gated to only fire for the
token-shaped URL.
## Tests
3 new tests in galleryOgService.shareImage.test.js using non-entropy
32-hex fixtures (deliberately zero-padded to avoid tripping
GitGuardian's Generic High Entropy Secret detector while still
matching the route's /^[a-f0-9]{32}$/i shape check):
- share-token slug resolves via the share_token column (alex's case)
- malformed/expired 32-hex token returns the site-wide fallback (no leak)
- non-hex slugs skip the share_token query entirely (hot-path cost guarded)
All 14 tests in the file pass.
## Out of scope here (separate follow-up)
- Issue 2 (Instagram og:image) — alex-side CF Worker bug pointing
og:image at /api/gallery/<slug>/hero/<id>, which requires gallery
auth. PicPeak already has the right unauthenticated path
(/og/gallery/<slug>/cover) gated by events.og_image_share_enabled
per-event opt-in (#474). Documented in the issue reply.
- Issue 3 (URL shortener with custom names) — real feature request,
meaningfully different from the existing #525 short-URLs option that
just strips the slug. Designing separately.
Boot self-heal seeds the corrected gate-in-loop dunning graph (wait→due,
grace wait, invoice_paid check, confirm-no-payment gate, bounded reminder
loop with re-check, final notice) keyed on builtin_key='invoice_dunning',
sized from the reminder_first/second_days settings. Seeded DISABLED and
is_builtin: live reminder behaviour is UNCHANGED (the hardcoded scheduler
ladder still runs) — enabling it pre-cutover would double-send, so the
engine cutover is a deliberate follow-up. Idempotent (preserves admin edits).
Built-ins refuse delete (enforced in the CRUD route). Test covers seed shape
+ idempotency.
GET/POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE /api/admin/workflows with graph read/write (PUT
writes a fresh node/edge set under version+1 and bumps workflows.version so
in-flight runs keep their pinned version). Run-history (/:id/runs,
/runs/:runId/steps) and the pending-approval inbox (GET /approvals,
POST /approvals/:id/:action → actById) round it out. Gated by the workflows
flag + RBAC (view for reads, manage for writes); built-in flows refuse
delete; graph validated (exactly one trigger, unique keys, edges reference
known nodes). Route tests cover CRUD, validation, version bump, toggle,
inbox, and the 403 permission gate.
gate_setup action creates a workflow_approvals row (single-use token stored
as SHA-256 hash) and emails the admin confirm/deny links immediately
(internal mail, no business-hours floor). actByToken / actById finalize the
approval and resume the run down the matching confirm/deny edge; both are
idempotent (a second click → 'already recorded') and respect expiry. Public
GET /api/public/workflow-approvals/:token/:action returns a small HTML
confirmation page (clickable from email, single-use so prefetch can't
double-act). listPending backs the webview inbox (wired in the CRUD phase).
Test covers gate→approval→email→token-confirm→resume + idempotency.
Ports filpgame/picpeak's WhatsApp integration with substantial adaptation
to fit our codebase patterns. Deliver the gallery-ready notification via
Meta Graph API in addition to (or instead of) email — useful where the
customer base expects WhatsApp by default. Strictly opt-in behind the new
`whatsapp` feature flag.
### Backend
- **Migration 136** (`whatsapp_configs` + `whatsapp_queue`). Loose-FK on
`event_id` matching our `inbound_documents` / `expenses` pattern (NOT
filpgame's hard FK — deleting an event shouldn't RESTRICT on stale queue
rows). Composite index on `(status, retry_count, created_at)` covers the
poll path.
- **`whatsappService.js`**: thin Meta Graph client. Meta API version bumped
v19 → v20 (filpgame's v19 deprecates Q3 2026); configurable via
`WHATSAPP_META_API_VERSION` env var. Timeout dropped 10s → 8s for
processor budget. Errors surface the Meta `error.code` so the processor
can tell retryable from permanent.
- **`whatsappProcessor.js`**: queue processor polling every 30s (configurable
via `WHATSAPP_QUEUE_POLL_MS`), 10 messages per cycle, 3 retries before
marking `failed`. Default language sourced from
`app_settings.general_default_language` (matches our email-language
resolution pattern); replaces filpgame's hardcoded `pt_BR` fallback.
Falls back to `en_US` if nothing is configured. No-ops gracefully when
the `whatsapp` flag is off, the config row is missing, or the access
token isn't set.
- **`adminWhatsapp.js`**: three routes (GET/PUT config, POST test). Gated
by `requireFeatureFlag('whatsapp')` so operators who haven't enabled it
can't see the surface. Access token masked as `'********'` on GET;
masked values silently preserve the stored token on PUT. Enabling with
no Phone Number ID, template name, or token (and none stored) fails at
the validator.
- **Two hook points** in `adminEvents.js`:
- **Create-and-publish-in-one-step**: queues immediately after the
`gallery_created` email when `!isDraft && customerPhone &&
waConfig.enabled`. Password from `req.body` is still in scope.
- **Publish-from-draft** (`POST /:id/publish`): queues with the password
the admin re-typed via PR #627's `PublishGalleryDialog`. When no
password was typed (legacy API consumers without dialog), passes empty
string so the password line renders blank rather than leaking the
`(set at creation)` sentinel.
- **`server.js`**: starts `whatsappQueueProcessor` at boot. Non-fatal if it
fails to start (logged as warning).
- **`feature_flags`**: new `whatsapp` flag in `KNOWN_FLAGS` and
`DEFAULT_FLAGS` (default false).
### Frontend
- **`featureFlags.service.ts`**: `'whatsapp'` added to `FeatureKey` union.
- **`FeaturesTab.tsx`**: WhatsApp card in the Communication section
(between Incoming mail and Messaging). Smartphone icon, "new" status,
sidebar-hidden (no sidebar entry — config lives under Settings).
- **`whatsapp.service.ts`** (new): typed client for the three admin routes.
- **`WhatsAppTab.tsx`** (new): Settings tab. Form for Phone Number ID,
WABA ID, access token (masked toggle), template name, and enabled flag.
Separate card below for a static test send. Token masking matches the
server's `'********'` sentinel — admin can edit other fields without
re-entering the token.
- **`SettingsPage.tsx`**: WhatsApp tab nav item gated on `flags.whatsapp`
(so it shows only when the feature is enabled); render block wires
`<WhatsAppTab />`.
### i18n
22 new EN + 22 new DE entries covering the Settings tab form, the
Features-tab card, plus `admin.activities.whatsapp_config_updated` +
`admin.notificationMessages.whatsappConfigUpdated` for the bell /
dashboard surfaces from PR #637.
### Deliberately NOT included
- filpgame's **password-encryption-at-rest** layer
(`password_encrypted`/`password_iv`/`password_key_version` columns).
Our publish-from-draft password recovery uses the admin re-type flow
from #627 (PublishGalleryDialog) — no plaintext at rest.
### Setup notes for operators
1. Create a Meta Business Account + WhatsApp Business App.
2. Register a phone number and obtain `phone_number_id` + `waba_id`.
3. Create a system-user access token (long-lived recommended).
4. Submit a message template for approval. The default `gallery_ready`
expects 5 body parameters: customer name, event name, gallery link,
password line, expiry date.
5. Enable the `whatsapp` feature flag.
6. Enter credentials under Settings → WhatsApp, send a test, then enable
delivery.
### Test plan
- [x] Backend `node -c` on all new/changed files clean
- [x] `tsc --noEmit` on frontend clean
- [x] Backend dev container restart picks up new files, /health OK
- [ ] Manual: enable `whatsapp` flag → Settings → WhatsApp tab appears
- [ ] Manual: save config with masked-only token (existing token preserved)
- [ ] Manual: enable=true without phone_number_id rejected at PUT
- [ ] Manual: enable=true without stored or new token rejected at PUT
- [ ] Manual: create-and-publish event with customer_phone → queue row
inserts with message_type='gallery_created'
- [ ] Manual: publish-from-draft via PublishGalleryDialog with password →
queue row uses the admin-typed password in the {{4}} line
- [ ] Manual: test send to a real phone with valid Meta config + approved
template → Meta returns messages[0].id, toast shows the id
- [ ] Manual: bell renders "WhatsApp configuration updated" in DE when
the config_updated activity fires (via PR #637 smart default)
Slice 1 of the VAT consolidation backend:
- PUT /admin/settings/accounting accepts accounting_vat_registered (bool) +
accounting_vat_reclaim_countries (ISO-2 list); GET /:type already returns
them parsed, so no GET change needed.
- New read-only GET /api/admin/vat-codes (adminAuth, NOT accounting-gated) so
the invoice/quote editors can populate their VAT dropdown even when the
accounting layer is off. Management CRUD stays under /admin/ledger.
Resolves the 7 feature-flag / i18n conflicts (accounting flags vs upstream's
Project Overview 'projects' flag, both registered in the same files) as
additive unions — accounting + incomingInvoices + expenses AND projects all
coexist. Migrations slot cleanly: projects 117-121, accounting 122-129, no
collisions. Frontend build + backend node --check pass.
Adds a second mail config (incoming/IMAP) alongside the outgoing SMTP one, a
1-minute poller, and a received-emails log. Standalone `incomingMail` feature
flag (default off).
- deps: imapflow + mailparser (receive-side; picpeak only had nodemailer).
- migration 128: email_configs gains imap_* columns (same shape as smtp_*);
seed incomingMail flag; new received_emails audit table.
- emailIntakeService: polls the mailbox every 60s when the flag is on AND a
mailbox is configured (no-op otherwise); parses each unseen message
(mailparser flattens forwarded/nested attachments), drops PDF/JPEG/PNG into
the incoming-invoices inbox (inbound_documents, source='email'), logs each
message in received_emails (dedupe by message-id; duplicate attachments
caught by the existing SHA-256 guard), marks it \Seen.
- adminEmail: GET/POST /incoming-config (mirrors SMTP config, masks imap_pass,
SSRF host guard) + GET /received (paginated log).
- server.js starts the poller at boot.
Verified: node -c, require-graph, migration-128 harness (imap columns, flag,
received_emails). Frontend (IMAP block under SMTP + Received tab + flag card)
follows.
New top-level Accounting area (gated by an `accounting` feature flag, default
OFF, + accounting.view/manage permissions), separate from CRM. Lets an admin
capture a received supplier invoice (upload OR phone/tablet camera), give it a
disposition, and re-bill the cost to a client onto the relevant event's
invoice with a contract-driven markup. Mirrors the billable-hours model.
Backend foundation only — frontend pages (inbox / expenses UI + camera widget)
and the heavy extractors (Tesseract OCR / Swiss-QR decode / isolated rasterise
worker) are follow-ups; extractionService is scaffolded so the upload path is
already wired.
Migrations 122-125 (numbered above the in-flight feat/crm 117-121):
- 122 seed `accounting` flag (default OFF, idempotent)
- 123 seed accounting.view/manage permissions + grant super_admin/admin
- 124 inbound_documents + expenses + expense_categories (+ seed categories)
- 125 contracts Spesen-Zuschlag clause (expense_markup_type/_percent/_flat_minor)
API: /api/admin/expenses — inbound capture/list/confirm/categorize, expense
CRUD, /:id/rebill (event-scoped; markup = expense override -> contract clause
-> 0%; mints an editable scheduled invoice), /:id/supplier-payment, categories.
adminFeatureFlags KNOWN_FLAGS/DEFAULT_FLAGS gain `accounting`.
Conventions: idempotent hasTable/hasColumn-guarded migrations; money in integer
*_minor; QR amount stored separately + untrusted; requirePermission guards;
camelCase API <-> snake_case columns; multer + 15MB cap for PDF/JPEG/PNG.
VAT/tax handling is v1 capture-only — verify with a Treuhaender before relying.
Verified: node -c all files, require-graph smoke test, and a SQLite migration
harness (schema + seeds + idempotency + defaults assert green).
Backend API for the cockpit (admin-only, Model A):
- projectService: list/get/create/update, assignEvent (re-point events.project_id),
getProjectOverview (rollup — invoices/emails/gallery by event, quotes/contracts
by customer since they carry no event_id, hours by project_id, + a milestone
timeline), getEmailPreview (actual sent HTML).
- adminProjects routes (/api/admin/projects): read=events.view, write=events.manage;
the overview gates each money-doc type on the admin's own bills/quotes/contracts
.view permission. Registered in server.js.
All aggregation queries verified against the real schema on a temp DB.
The /favicon.ico + /apple-touch-icon routes stream the file directly,
bypassing the secureStatic middleware that locks down served SVGs. An
admin-uploaded SVG favicon with <script> would then run at the top-level
origin (stored XSS). Re-apply the same CSP (default-src 'none') + nosniff
for .svg here, mirroring secureStatic.js. Reported in the #603 review.
The /favicon.ico route 302-redirected to the uploaded file. Firefox/Chrome
follow that, but Safari does NOT reliably follow a redirect for favicon
requests — it falls back to the HTML <link>, i.e. the bundled picpeak
default. Stream the file bytes directly for local /uploads favicons (with a
path-containment guard); only external URLs and the missing-favicon fallback
still redirect. sendFile sets the content-type from the extension.
Safari requests /favicon.ico and /apple-touch-icon*.png at the site root and
is unreliable about honouring JS-injected <link rel=icon>, so an admin-set
favicon never showed there (index.html only ships /favicon-32x32.png; a bare
/favicon.ico 404'd).
- Backend: GET /favicon.ico + /apple-touch-icon(.png|-precomposed.png) resolve
the configured branding_favicon_url (redirect to its /uploads path or the
absolute URL), falling back to the bundled /favicon-32x32.png.
- nginx: exact-match (=) locations proxy those paths to the backend, winning
over the static-asset regex that previously served them from the build dir.
- DynamicFavicon also emits an apple-touch-icon link (belt-and-braces).
Requires a frontend image REBUILD (nginx.conf change) in addition to backend.
Closes the six-step DR dance ("onboard throwaway admin → restore via
wizard → log out → log back in with originals") by letting admins
recover an install with zero clicks past `docker compose up`.
Convention: drop a file named `RESTORE_ON_INSTALL` (no extension OR
.txt) into the existing `/backup` bind mount. On next container
start, the new boot hook detects it, runs the restore, and starts
the server with the restored state. Admin opens the browser, login
works first try.
Payload variants:
- empty file → auto-picks newest backup-manifest-*.json from
/backup/manifests/. Useful for "restore the latest".
- path inside the file → uses that specific manifest. Useful for
"I want this older backup, not the most recent".
Safety gates (three layers):
1. Trigger file must exist — no auto-magic, admin signals intent
2. DB must be empty (no events, ≤1 admin) — refuses to clobber
production data
3. Restore failure leaves the trigger file in place for retry on
next container start. Success deletes it so subsequent boots
don't redo the work.
Override hook: INSTALL_FROM_BACKUP_FORCE=true skips guard #2 for the
"I know what I'm doing" edge case (dev env rebuilds, etc).
No docker-compose changes required — uses the bind mount picpeak
already has, env vars are optional. The minimal admin workflow now
matches the bare-minimum mental model: "copy my backup files,
restart the container, log in with original credentials."
Tests: 7 scenarios covering trigger detection, payload variants,
safety gates, success/failure trigger-file lifecycle.
Fresh installs of picpeak had `restore_allow_force` defaulting to
false (or missing entirely). Combined with the "1 active admin
user" pre-restore warning that the fresh-install admin auto-creates,
this meant the very first restore on every new install hit:
Force restore is not allowed by system settings
Admins then had to hand-craft SQL to flip the setting before they
could recover their data — at the worst possible moment, when they
were already mid-disaster.
This isn't security: the admin who can SQL the setting on can also
flip it via the UI. It's just a sharp edge that bites every new
install once.
Cure: boot-time self-heal that seeds restore_allow_force=true only
when the row doesn't exist. Existing installs that explicitly set
the row (true OR false) are NOT touched — admin policy wins.
Pattern mirrors _backupPathsBoot.js and _emailTemplateBoot.js.
Default-ON rationale matches Stage A's principle: the cost of
forgetting (= can't recover from a disaster) outweighs the friction
saved (= adversarial admins can't run forced restores). Audit
logging keeps the accountability story intact.
Stage B of the three-stage backup-hardening plan (Stage A:
inline-DB-dump + fail-loud guard already landed). The file-backup
walker used to hard-code its subdirectory list inside
`getFilesToBackupInternal`, which is the same footgun that hid the
`business-docs` gap for ~6 months — a new feature drops artefacts
under STORAGE_PATH and the maintainer has to remember to edit the
walker.
Now driven by a `backup_paths` table:
- Migration 108 creates the table and seeds the 7 canonical
defaults (events/active, events/archived, thumbnails, previews,
heroes, uploads, business-docs). Seed data lives on the
migration as `DEFAULT_PATHS` so the boot self-heal can re-use it.
- `_backupPathsBoot.js` mirrors `_emailTemplateBoot.js`: on every
boot it diffs the canonical list against the current rows and
`INSERT ... ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING`s the missing ones. Keeps
admin edits intact, picks up new defaults shipped after the
install (Knex won't re-run migration 108). Wired into server.js
just before `startBackupService()`.
- Walker now calls `resolveBackupPaths(config)` which:
* reads `backup_paths WHERE include_in_default=true ORDER BY
display_order`
* falls back to a hard-coded `LEGACY_BACKUP_PATHS` if the
table is missing OR empty (defense in depth — never silently
scans nothing)
* gates each row by its `feature_flag` column (matches how
`backup_include_archived` already worked; data-driven now)
- Backward compatible: `getFilesToBackup(true|false)` still works
for legacy callers and the existing businessDocs test. New
callers should pass the full config object so feature gates
other than `backup_include_archived` evaluate correctly.
Tests:
- new: `backupService.configurableWalker.test.js` — 7 cases
covering canonical seed, toggling include_in_default, runtime
INSERT picked up without restart, feature_flag gating both on
and off, empty-table → LEGACY fallback, boolean backward compat
- all 15 backup-walker integration tests pass
(configurableWalker 7 + inlineDbDump 5 + businessDocs 3)
- frontend build clean
- 4 pre-existing integration failures (webhookDelivery, storage
backend, adminPhotos.reference, imageProcessor.storage) confirmed
unrelated via `git stash` baseline run
Stage C (CRM feature coverage audit + diagnostic UI) follows
in a separate commit.
Diagnostic for the bug fixed in a9280ea — confirms every *_path
column on quotes / contracts / invoices points at a file that
actually exists on disk and (where a *_sha256 column is set) the
file's bytes still hash to the expected value. Read-only;
on-demand only; no scheduler.
Per the design decisions locked in this PR's design call:
D1 — on-demand only for v1; scheduling deferred until we have
runtime data on large installs
D2 — not auto-triggered after restore; surface a "verify
integrity now" CTA on the restore-completed screen instead
D3 — wet-upload contracts hash-verified same as system-rendered
(signed_pdf_sha256 is computed at upload time, no special
case needed in the verifier)
Coverage (single source of truth in backupIntegrityService.CHECKS):
quotes.pdf_path existence
contracts.pdf_path + pdf_sha256 existence + hash
contracts.signed_pdf_path + signed_pdf_sha256 existence + hash
contracts.signed_customer_signature_path existence (PNG/JPG, no hash)
contracts.signed_admin_signature_path existence (PNG/JPG, no hash)
invoices.pdf_path existence
invoices.imported_pdf_path existence (admin-uploaded scans)
Report shape buckets each row into verifiedOk / missing /
hashMismatches / existsButNoHash so callers can distinguish hash-
verified from existence-only — the latter is weaker evidence in
a legal dispute and the UI should reflect that.
Route GET /api/admin/system-health/backup-integrity accepts an
optional ?scope= CSV filter (quote | contract | contract-signature
| invoice). Unknown scope tokens are rejected with a 400 +
BACKUP_INTEGRITY_UNKNOWN_SCOPE code rather than silently scanning
everything.
Frontend half (BackupIntegrityCard on a System Health page) is
deferred until backlog #11 (System Health page) is scaffolded.
The endpoint is independently useful via curl in the meantime.
The CRM template seeders (crmEmailTemplates / contractEmailTemplates /
eventReminderTemplates) were idempotent and ready, but only
contractEmailTemplates was actually called (lazily, by contractService
sends). crmEmailTemplates had no caller anywhere — every install that
didn't pre-exist its templates failed every quote_sent / invoice_sent /
storno_issued / invoice_reminder_* send with "Email template '<key>'
not found". The queue processor retries 3 times then leaves the row
in status='pending', retry_count=3, silently dead with no admin
surface (see project_crm_backlog for the eventual System Health page).
Fix: wire all three seeders into server.js startServer() right before
startEmailQueueProcessor. The new _emailTemplateBoot.js orchestrates
all three and then, for any template_key it just inserted, resets
retry_count on stuck email_queue rows of that email_type so the
queue processor's next tick picks them back up. Recovery is targeted:
unrelated retry-exhausted rows (e.g. SMTP-timeout failures) are not
touched.
Integration test boots a fresh CRM DB, pre-seeds a stuck quote_sent
row plus an unrelated stuck row, runs the boot helper, and asserts:
templates landed, stuck quote_sent row was reset, unrelated row was
left alone.
Already-deployed installs heal automatically on the next backend
restart after this lands.
Follow-up to #498. The toggle reached zip downloads but single-photo
downloads still landed on disk with the renamed `event_individual_NNN.jpg`
even when the admin had flipped the setting on. Two reasons, fixed
in lockstep:
- Frontend overrode the server's Content-Disposition with a hardcoded
`<a download="X">` attribute (`gallery.service.ts`, `photos.service.ts`)
where X was the sanitized `photo.filename` known to the client. So
the backend's correctly-formed `Content-Disposition` never reached
the disk write. Added `parseContentDispositionFilename` (RFC 5987 +
plain `filename=` fallback) and let the server name win when present.
- `secureImages.js` (enhanced/maximum protection's secure-download
route) was missed in #498 and still emitted a hardcoded
`filename="${photo.filename}"` regardless of the toggle. Wired it
through `getUseOriginalFilenames` + `buildContentDisposition` so it
matches the regular gallery download path.
Also exposed `Content-Disposition` via CORS so split (cross-origin)
frontend deployments can still read it from JavaScript. Same-origin
Docker deploys already had access; this is a defensive addition for
the split case.
Background: galleryOgService already serves OG/Twitter Card meta tags
to social-crawler User-Agents (WhatsApp, Facebook, Slack, Telegram,
Discord, ~21 in total) for /gallery/:slug URLs. Today the og:image
is always the brand logo with the inline rationale "no protected
photo content".
#474 asked for a hero/cover photo preview. The trade-off is that any
URL embedded in og:image is fetched unauthenticated by every
link-preview crawler — so an opted-in image is effectively public
to anyone the gallery URL is shared to. Ship as a per-event boolean,
default FALSE, so existing galleries never start surfacing photos
without explicit admin intent.
Schema (migration 102):
- events.og_image_share_enabled BOOLEAN NOT NULL DEFAULT FALSE.
Backend:
- galleryOgService.buildOgMetadata: when opt-in is on AND a
hero_photo_id is set AND the photo has a generated thumbnail,
emit og:image as /og/gallery/:slug/cover. Falls back to the
brand logo on any miss (deleted hero, missing thumbnail, no
opt-in) so a half-configured gallery still gets a polished
preview rather than a broken-image src.
- galleryOgService.handleGalleryOgCover: new public endpoint that
streams the hero thumbnail. Validates slug shape, checks the
opt-in flag + hero presence + thumbnail existence; returns 404
on any failure. ETag = thumbnail mtime + photo id so a
regenerated thumb busts crawler caches. Cache-Control:
public, max-age=300 (short — admins shouldn't wait an hour for
a cover swap to land in chat previews).
- server.js: mount the new GET /og/gallery/:slug/cover route. The
existing nginx ^~ /og/gallery/ proxy block already covers it.
- adminEvents.js: validator + persistence on POST + PUT.
formatBoolean coercion so SQLite (0/1) and Postgres (boolean)
both behave correctly.
Frontend:
- Event type + UpdateEventData carry og_image_share_enabled.
- EventDetailsPage adds a checkbox under the HeroPhotoSelector,
disabled when no hero photo is picked. Help text deliberately
spells out the public-by-design consequence — admins shouldn't
flip this on for a sensitive gallery without realising what
they're sharing with link-preview crawlers.
Tests: 8 new in galleryOgService.shareImage.test.js — pin the
cover-vs-logo decision contract (3 cases) plus the defensive
fallbacks (deleted hero, missing thumbnail) and the 404 contract
on the cover endpoint (4 cases). The 404 tests assert that
ensureThumbnail() is NOT called when opt-in is off, so a future
refactor can't accidentally widen the unauthenticated cover
endpoint to expose a hero the admin hasn't shared.

The trigger: PR #458 mounted requireCustomerPortalEnabled which
410'd every /api/customer/* + /api/admin/customers/* request when
the master toggle was off. Some browsers cached that 410 (no
Cache-Control header was set, so heuristic freshness applied —
the wrong default for an authenticated/sensitive surface).
PR #470 reverted the middleware, but a customer whose tab cached
the 410 still saw 410s until they hard-refreshed.
Add noStoreCache middleware and mount it in front of both route
groups. Every response (200, 4xx, 5xx) now carries
`Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, private`
plus the HTTP/1.0 Pragma + Expires fallbacks. Any future
transient error from these endpoints can no longer get pinned in
browser or proxy caches and outlive its cause.
Cost is one setHeader per request; applied per route group rather
than globally so static assets + galleries keep their own caching
strategy unchanged.
Includes a dedicated unit test pinning the header set so a future
cleanup pass can't quietly drop it and re-introduce the bug.
The route was registered in upstream/beta's server.js but dropped
during the rebase squash — the Features tab GET/PUT both 404'd, so
the customerPortal flag (and every other flag) couldn't be toggled.
Restored the mount in its upstream/beta position.

server.js was still requiring ./src/middleware/requireCustomerPortal
— a file deleted during the AdvancedFeaturesTab cleanup — which
crashed the backend on boot in production (MODULE_NOT_FOUND).
The customerPortal feature flag is now enforced on the frontend via
<RequireFeature flag="customerPortal" /> route guards (App.tsx) and
AdminSidebar visibility. Defence in depth is provided by
customerAccountsService.isCustomerPortalEnabled() in adminEvents.
Routes themselves are still protected by adminAuth / customerAuth.

Implements the recurring-customer login surface from
the-luap/picpeak#354 plugged into the maintainer's
new feature-flag infrastructure (PR #443) instead of
a parallel toggle.
* New `customerPortal` feature flag (foundation flag for the
not-yet-built calendar/quotes/bills/messaging customer
surfaces). Defaults FALSE on fresh installs, TRUE on existing
installs (events > 0) via migration 095 so live customer
accounts don't disappear mid-deployment.
* Foundation schema: customer_accounts, customer_invitations,
event_customer_assignments, customer_password_resets, plus
RBAC permissions customers.view / .create / .delete granted
to super_admin + admin system roles.
* Backend: /api/admin/customers (invite, list, search, assign,
deactivate, reset password) + /api/customer/auth/* +
/api/customer/* (login, dashboard, accept-invite, reset).
Customer JWT bypass minted via
/api/customer/events/:slug/access-token so existing gallery
middleware stays untouched.
* Frontend: /customer/* route tree gated by RequireFeature flag
customerPortal, with login / dashboard / accept-invite /
reset pages and a customer-side sidebar layout.
/admin/customers and /admin/customers/:id gated identically.
* Settings → Features grows a "Customers" section with a
Customer portal card. The maintainer's Features tab stays the
single source of truth — no parallel Advanced features tab.
* CustomerAccountPicker on event create/edit forms hides itself
when the flag is off; backend ignores customer_account_ids in
that case instead of erroring the whole event save.

Reorganises the admin sidebar around what users actually do, and adds a
single Features page that gates which feature surfaces appear in the
nav. Shrinks the main sidebar from 11 items to 4-6 (depending on
feature flags) and groups configuration screens into a single Settings
home with six logical sections.
Why
---
The current sidebar mixes three concerns: workspaces (Dashboard, Events,
Archives), feature surfaces (Analytics, Users), and configuration
screens that get touched maybe once a month (Email Settings, Branding,
Event Types, Backup, CMS Pages). That's 11 items, half of them config.
Backend
-------
- New `feature_flags` table (key, value, updated_at, updated_by).
Migration 088 detects existing-vs-fresh installs from the events
table:
* Existing install (events>0) → all 9 flags TRUE so nothing
vanishes from an admin's UI on upgrade.
* Fresh install (events=0) → spec defaults: galleries,
reminderEmails, analytics, userManagement TRUE; calendar,
calendarBooking, quotes, bills, messaging FALSE.
- New `/api/admin/feature-flags` (GET/PUT) under `settings.view` and
`settings.edit`. Server enforces the same dependency rules the
frontend does (galleries always TRUE, quotes=false → bills=false,
calendar=false → calendarBooking=false). PUT writes one
`feature_flags_updated` activity log row with the diff.
Frontend
--------
- `FeatureFlagsContext` provides `useFeatureFlags()` (with staged/save/
reset/isDirty) and `useFeatureEnabled(key)`. Mounted inside
AdminLayout so flag fetches carry the auth cookie. Source of truth
is the server response; staged is a local copy that the Features tab
edits and the Save button PUTs.
- `RequireFeature` route guard for /admin/analytics and /admin/users —
redirects to /admin/dashboard when the corresponding flag is OFF.
- AdminSidebar dropped from 11 to 6 items. Removed: Email Settings,
Branding, Event Types, Backup, CMS Pages (now Settings tabs).
Feature-gated: Analytics, Users.
- Old top-level routes (/admin/email, /admin/branding, /admin/event-
types, /admin/backup, /admin/cms) kept as <Navigate> redirects to
/admin/settings?tab=<key> so existing bookmarks don't 404.
- SettingsPage rewritten with a 6-group inner-nav (General /
Content & Appearance / Communication / Privacy & Security /
Integrations / System) and 19 tabs. New Features tab is the
default landing tab. URL ?tab=<key> roundtrips with state — deep
links and the back button work.
- FeaturesTab renders 9 cards across 5 sections. Toggles enabled for
Analytics + User Management (the two flags that gate sidebar items
in this PR). All other toggles disabled with a "Not yet available"
lockedReason — the cards still render so admins see the roadmap, but
the flag has no UI effect until the surface ships in its own PR. The
galleries card is locked TRUE per spec (foundation, can't be off).
- Live SidebarPreview reflects unsaved staged changes — admins see
what their sidebar will look like before they save.
- New i18n keys across all 5 locales (en, de, nl, pt, ru) for the
Features tab copy, the new Settings group labels, and the lifted
tab titles.
Verified end-to-end
-------------------
- Migration on this dev DB (existing install, 977 events): all 9 flags
set to TRUE.
- Migration on simulated fresh install (events table emptied): spec
defaults applied (5 OFF, 4 ON).
- Backend round-trip: GET → PUT → audit-log entry written, dependency
rule enforced (bills forced false when quotes=false even when bills=
true requested).
- UI Playwright spec: sidebar dropped 5 items, old top-level routes
redirect, Features tab is default, Galleries+Calendar+Quotes+Bills+
Messaging+ReminderEmails toggles disabled, Analytics+Users toggles
enabled, toggling Analytics off + saving updates the sidebar +
redirects /admin/analytics to /admin/dashboard.
- Smoke 13/13 still green; no regressions on existing flows.
Move thumbnail / EXIF / dimensions / watermark / webhook work off the
upload request thread and into a background worker pool. Upload
requests now return 202 in seconds even on NFS-backed storage; the
worker(s) drain the pending queue independently and update each
photo's processing_status to 'complete' or 'failed' on its own.
Schema (migration 085_async_photo_processing.js):
- photos.processing_status enum default 'complete' (existing
rows are already done)
- photos.processing_error populated on 'failed'
- photos.processing_started_at timestamp for janitor recovery
- photos.upload_id groups all photos from one upload
request so the frontend can poll
status by group
- indexes on processing_status and upload_id for queue lookups
services/photoProcessor.js
- queueFilesForProcessing(files, options) — shared helper used by
the admin and gallery upload routes. Moves files to final storage
+ inserts pending rows; returns { uploadId, photos, errors }.
- processPhoto(photoId) — worker-mode: reads original from storage
via withLocalCopy (transparent local/S3), generates thumbnail and
EXIF/dimensions or video metadata, queues watermark, fires
photo.uploaded webhook, marks 'complete'. Throws => caller marks
'failed' with the error message.
- processUploadedPhotos kept untouched — chunkedUploadService still
uses the synchronous path.
services/backgroundProcessor.js (new)
- N independent worker loops per backend instance (default 2,
UPLOAD_PROCESSOR_CONCURRENCY env override).
- Multi-pod safe: postgres SELECT FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED, sqlite
UPDATE-with-status-guard. Pods race on rows, exactly one wins.
- Janitor every minute resets photos stuck in 'processing' for >10
minutes (worker died, pod restarted) back to 'pending'.
- UPLOAD_PROCESSOR_DISABLED=true opt-out for CI/test.
- Started from server.js after the other long-running workers.
routes/adminPhotos.js — POST /:eventId/upload
- Replaced batch-of-25 sync processing loop with per-file
move-to-storage + insert-pending. Response is now 202 with
upload_id, count, photo_ids in addition to the legacy
successCount / replacedCount fields the existing frontend reads.
- Per-request temp directory cleanup is now a single idempotent
handler on res.finish/res.close (was three inline blocks for
error paths only, leaking dirs on success — original bug from
contributor analysis).
- GET /uploads/:upload_id/status — JSON snapshot of pending /
processing / complete / failed counts plus per-photo state.
- GET /uploads/:upload_id/stream — SSE upgrade. Polls internally
every 1.5s, emits on snapshot change, ends when all photos
reach a terminal state.
- POST /photos/:photoId/retry — flips a 'failed' photo back to
'pending' so the worker picks it up again.
- GET /:eventId/thumbnail/:photoId now returns 503 with Retry-After
while the photo is still pending/processing, and 422 on 'failed'.
The admin grid renders placeholders accordingly.
routes/gallery.js — POST /:eventId/upload (guest)
- Refactored to use queueFilesForProcessing instead of the synchronous
processUploadedPhotos. Same 202 + upload_id shape.
- GET /:slug/photos now filters processing_status to 'complete' (or
NULL for pre-migration rows) so guests never see in-flight photos.
Side-effect timing change:
- photo.uploaded webhook now fires from the worker after the photo
is actually processed (thumbnail + dimensions populated) instead
of from inside the upload request. Same payload fields. Worth a
one-line note in the changelog.
WhatsApp / Slack / Facebook / Twitter previews showed nothing useful for
shared gallery links — the SPA's stub index.html has no OG tags and the
meta-injection in DynamicFavicon happens at runtime, which crawlers
never see (they don't execute JS).
Add a backend OG handler at /og/gallery/:slug that returns minimal HTML
with proper og:* and twitter:* meta sourced from the event row + branding
settings (event name, formatted date, welcome_message excerpt as
description, configured logo as the preview image, FRONTEND_URL-based
canonical). Honours slug redirects so renamed galleries still get rich
previews.
Wire crawler detection in both nginx configs (production and dev) — UA
match against the standard list (facebookexternalhit, WhatsApp, Slackbot,
Twitterbot, Discordbot, LinkedInBot, etc.) triggers an internal
rewrite to /og/gallery/:slug, while humans fall through to the SPA via
try_files. The OG endpoint is also wired into the native-install SPA
fallback in server.js for setups that bypass nginx.
The OG image is intentionally the brand logo, not a gallery photo —
crawlers fetch it without auth, and password-protected gallery photos
must not leak via share previews.
Lets PicPeak write photos, thumbnails, hero images, watermarks, and
archive zips to any S3-compatible bucket (AWS S3, MinIO, Cloudflare R2,
Backblaze B2, Wasabi, DigitalOcean Spaces) instead of the local
filesystem. Selected via STORAGE_BACKEND=local|s3.
Architecture
- backend/src/services/storage/StorageBackend.js — abstract interface
(put/get/exists/stat/delete/list/copy/rename/signedUrl/putFromFile/
getToFile) — typedef-only, documents the contract.
- LocalFsStorage.js — wraps fs with atomic-write-via-tmp-rename, path
traversal protection, list-as-walker.
- S3StorageBackend.js — thin wrapper around the existing
S3StorageAdapter (used by backupService) mapping it onto the canonical
interface; supports optional STORAGE_S3_PREFIX namespace.
- index.js — factory selected by STORAGE_BACKEND with startup ping
(HEADs sentinel key on S3, fs.stat on local) so misconfig fails fast
before the first request.
Consumer refactors (~12 services + routes), each parametrized over the
abstraction:
- imageProcessor / videoProcessor — pipe Sharp/ffmpeg output through
storage.put; expose withLocalCopy() helper for S3-mode regeneration
paths that need a local file for sharp/ffmpeg.
- archiveService / downloadZipService — finalize zip in tmp dir, then
storage.putFromFile. Atomic-rename pattern preserved on local; S3
emulates via copy + delete (worker prunes orphaned .tmp.* on startup).
- photoProcessor / photoReplacementService / adminPhotos upload+delete /
routes/v1/events.js POST /events/:id/photos / routes/events.js — every
upload path now goes storage.putFromFile(temp) → unlink temp.
- gallery.js bulk-download (cached + on-the-fly + selected) — managed
photos via storage.get, external-mode unchanged.
- protectedImages / secureImages / photoResolver — read via
storage.get; resolvePhotoStorageKey returns the canonical key.
- watermarkService / watermarkGeneratorService — persistent watermarks
via storage.put.
- fileWatcher — bails out with a clear log warning when STORAGE_BACKEND=s3
(chokidar can't watch S3); auto-import lands via the S3 prefix walker
introduced in the follow-up commit.
- expirationChecker — small touch (event.expired webhook fire from #327
shipping in the next commit).
Migration tooling
- backend/scripts/migrate-storage.js — one-shot --dry-run capable script
that walks photos.path, thumbnail_path, hero_path, watermark_path and
events.archive_path/download_zip_path; streams local → S3; sha256
size-match skip for idempotent re-run; failures CSV.
Presigned-URL "Download All" (#328 follow-up shipped in this commit)
- routes/gallery.js — when STORAGE_BACKEND=s3 + event.allow_presigned_download
+ downloads enabled + watermark NOT enabled, /download-all returns a
302 redirect to a 5-minute presigned S3 URL. Per-event opt-in surface
ships in the next commit's UI.
Tests
- backend/__tests__/integration/storageBackend.test.js — parametrized
contract suite running against BOTH LocalFs AND MinIO (18 tests, both
backends — 36 cases total).
- backend/__tests__/integration/imageProcessor.storage.test.js — same
parametrized pattern for the image processor (10 tests × 2 backends).
- backend/__tests__/integration/backup-s3.test.js — bootstrap fix:
drop the redundant initDb() (001_init handles it) and remove
schema-drift in configureS3Backup (app_settings has no created_at
anymore and the unique constraint is on setting_key alone, not
composite). 0/12 → 7/12 (5 remaining are unrelated assertion drift).
- backend/src/services/photoResolver.js — mixed-source events (reference
mode with managed-uploaded photos) now fall back to managed when
external_relpath is missing instead of throwing.
- tests/e2e/s3-storage-roundtrip.spec.ts — Playwright spec that
auto-skips against local backend; full upload → serve → delete
round-trip when run against an S3-mode backend.
Server wiring (server.js)
- initStorage() called after database init, before rate limiters.
- This commit's diff also includes the webhook delivery worker startup
and the S3 auto-importer startup. Those features ship in the next two
commits — co-located here for one bisectable diff per file.
Docs + ops
- README §"Storage Backends" — capability matrix, switching playbook,
IAM policy snippet, MinIO/R2/B2 examples.
- README §"Webhooks" — also added here (full diff bundled).
- .env.example — STORAGE_BACKEND + STORAGE_S3_* + STORAGE_AUTO_IMPORT
documented; WEBHOOK_* added in the same diff.
- .gitignore — re-anchor the existing `storage/` rule to `/storage/`
so backend/src/services/storage/ (the new abstraction code) is
trackable. The runtime ./storage/ data dir stays ignored.
Out of scope for v1 (per the issue): presigned URLs for individual
photo display (always streamed for protection middleware), CDN
integration, hybrid hot/cold tiers, S3 → local migration, multi-bucket
per-event.
Adds a long-lived bearer-token mechanism + scoped REST surface designed
for n8n-style automation: create a gallery, upload photos, fetch the
share URL — all via documented HTTPS endpoints instead of poking at the
admin UI's internal routes.
API
- Migration 081 adds `api_tokens` (hashed_token, scopes, owner FK,
last_used/expires/revoked timestamps).
- New apiTokenAuth middleware: parses `Authorization: Bearer pp_live_…`,
resolves to the owner admin user, attaches `req.admin` so existing
permission decorators (events.create etc.) still work. Token-level
scope check (read/write/admin) layers on top as defence in depth —
a leaked read-only token cannot mutate even if its owner is super_admin.
- adminApiTokens route exposes list/create/revoke for admins (cookie-
authed). Plaintext token is returned exactly once on creation.
- v1 surface mounted at /api/v1: POST/GET /events, GET /events/:id,
POST /events/:id/photos (multipart, single file), GET
/events/:id/share-link. Each endpoint annotated with @openapi JSDoc.
Documentation
- swagger-jsdoc + swagger-ui-express produce a live spec at
/api/openapi.json and a Swagger UI at /api/docs (admin-gated).
- backend/scripts/generate-openapi.js writes docs/openapi.{json,yaml}
to the repo so the spec is versioned.
- scripts/sync-api-docs.sh runs in pre-push: regenerates the spec and
copies it into the picpeak-docs Nextra site at app/api/. Writes only,
never commits or pushes the docs repo (PUSH_SKIP_DOCS=1 to bypass).
Frontend
- New Settings → API Tokens tab: generate, list, revoke. Plaintext
tokens are shown once with a copy-to-clipboard control.
Adds `pid` and `uptime` fields to the /health response so external monitors
(and the local E2E watchdog) can detect a silent process restart between
two checks — e.g. an unhandled rejection that crashes Node and Docker
quietly relaunches the container.
Also adds .gitignore patterns for a local-only E2E suite that lives in
tests/e2e/local/ on individual machines and is never pushed.
Introduces a new "Per-guest selections" identity mode for event
feedback, letting each visitor register under their own name so their
likes/favorites/comments/ratings are tracked independently. Includes
admin insights (list, per-guest detail, aggregate view, export) and
advanced identity features (forget-me, email recovery, invite tokens,
merge).
New event-level setting
- event_feedback_settings.identity_mode = 'simple' | 'guest' (default
'simple' → zero behavior change for existing events).
- Admin UI radio under Feedback Settings to toggle per event.
Root cause of the previous "all guests share state" bug
- generateGuestIdentifier() was sha256(ip + userAgent), so every visitor
on the same WiFi + similar device collided into one identity.
- Now: when a verified guest JWT is present (x-guest-token header),
req.guest.identifier takes precedence — per-person rate limits and
per-person deduplication.
Phase 1 — identity layer
- Migration 078: new gallery_guests, guest_invites, guest_verification_
codes tables; identity_mode column + check constraint; nullable
guest_id FK on photo_feedback.
- New guest JWT type scoped to (eventId, guestId).
- New middleware guestAuth.resolveGuest (non-blocking) + requireGuest.
- POST /gallery/:slug/guest, GET /guest/me, DELETE /guest/me.
- Gallery feedback route enforces guest identity in guest mode and
reads name/email from the verified token (never from the body).
- Frontend GuestIdentityContext + GuestNamePromptModal; axios
interceptor injects x-guest-token on gallery API calls.
- Feedback-only blocking: gallery opens freely, prompt only on first
interactive feedback action.
- Admin "Guests" tab (conditional on identity_mode='guest') with the
AdminGuestsList component.
Phase 2 — admin insights
- GET /admin/events/:eventId/guests list + aggregated counts.
- GET /admin/events/:eventId/guests/:guestId detail with per-type
groupings; AdminGuestDetail modal with thumbnail grid + tabs.
- GET /admin/events/:eventId/guests/aggregate sorted by distinct guest
pick count; GuestSelectionsAggregate component.
- Per-guest export (txt/csv/json) and bulk export-all ZIP.
Phase 3 — polish
- 3.1 Self-service forget-me link in gallery footer.
- 3.2 Email-based identity recovery: POST /guest/recover sends a
6-digit code via the existing emailProcessor, POST /guest/verify
exchanges it for a token (rate-limited, enumeration-safe).
- 3.3 Admin invite tokens: pre-mint identities, share URLs with
?invite=, single-use redemption stripping the param from history.
- 3.4 Admin merge endpoint reassigns feedback + soft-deletes sources.
Shared helper
- useGalleryFeedbackAction hook wraps the identity-check logic for
inline like buttons across Masonry/Grid/Justified/Mosaic/Carousel/
Timeline/Premium layouts.
Backwards compatibility
- Existing events default to 'simple' after migration; behavior
unchanged.
- Legacy photo_feedback rows keep guest_id NULL; admin shows them in
the generic feedback moderation view as before.
- feedback_count denormalized stat now uses COALESCE(guest_id,
guest_identifier) so per-guest counts are accurate without touching
legacy rows.
Verified end-to-end against local Docker
- Migration clean on existing data.
- Simple mode unchanged (no prompt, legacy flow).
- Guest mode: Alice registers on click, tokens persist in
sessionStorage, feedback rows carry guest_id.
- Carol via invite link auto-redeems, sees Alice's "1 likes" badge.
- Admin Guests tab shows both with correct counts; detail modal
displays thumbnail grid with badges; aggregate view sorts by picker
count (photo 227 = 2, others = 1); CSV/JSON export matches DB.
- Merge Carol into Alice: feedback reassigned, Carol soft-deleted,
Alice count = 4.
