* Make test-notifs button in settingsKit La Touche2025-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The idea here is that we should make a really really minimal notifications feature, where you can enable them, and test them, but nothing on the server will automatically send them. Once that's in, we can add client-side config, which we'll need to sync to the server and act on, that says: > generally, notify me: > 1. Not at all > 2. When my name is mentioned > 3. When any message arrives > For each channel, override the above with one of the same three > options. Later later, we might want to also add "notify me when a new channel is made".

* Fix some minor weirdness when Pilcrow is (unwisely) used as a library.ojacobson2025-07-23
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pilcrow isn't meant to be used as a library, and the only public interface the `pilcrow` lib crate exposes is the CLI entry point. However, we will likely be publishing Pilcrow via crates.io (among other options) one day, and so it will _be usable_ as a library if someone's desperate enough to try. To that end, let's try to be good citizens. This change fixes two issues: * The docs contained links to internal items, which are not actually included in the library documentation. The links are simply removed; the uses of those items were already private anyways. * The CLI `Error` type is no longer part of the public interface, using `impl Trait` (`impl std::error::Error`) shenanigans to hide the error type from callers. (To be clear, this would be _extremely_ rude in code intended for library use.) This frees us up to change the structure of the error type - or to replace it entirely - without making the world's most pedantic semver change in the process. Merges lib-crate-weirdness into main.
| * Remove `pilcrow::cli::Error` from the lib crate's public interface.Owen Jacobson2025-07-22
| | | | | | | | This might be the pettiest rude change I've ever made to a Rust program. If I saw this - or did this - in code _intend_ to be used as a library, I'd be appalled.
| * Stop linking to private documentation items in public docs.Owen Jacobson2025-07-22
|/ | | | The Pilcrow crate library docs are something of a wart; Pilcrow isn't meant to be used as a library, and the only public interface it exposes is the CLI entry point. However, we will likely be publishing Pilcrow via crates.io (among other options), and so it will _be usable_ as a library if you're desperate enough to try. The docs should at least be coherent.
* Add a `--umask` option to determine what permissions new files/databases get.ojacobson2025-07-23
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new `--umask` option takes one of three values: * `--umask masked`, the default, takes the inherited umask and forces o+rwx on. * `--umask inherit` takes the inherited umask as-is. * `--umask OCTAL` sets the umask to exactly `OCTAL` and is broadly equivalent to `umask OCTAL && pilcrow --umask inherit`. This fell out of a conversation with @wlonk, who is working on notifications. Since notifications may require [VAPID] keys, the server will need a way to store those keys. That would generally be "in the pilcrow database," which lead me to the observation that Pilcrow creates that database as world-readable by default. "World-readable" and "encryption/signing keys" are not things that belong in the same sentence. [VAPID]: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8292 The most "obvious" solution would be to set the permissions used for the sqlite database when it's created. That's harder than it sounds: sqlite has no built-in facility for doing this. The closest thing that exists today is the [`modeof`] query parameter, which copies the permissions (and ownership) from some other file. We also can't reliably set the permissions ourselves, as sqlite may - depending on build options and configuration - [create multiple files][wal]. [`modeof`]: https://www.sqlite.org/uri.html [wal]: https://www.sqlite.org/wal.html Using `umask` is a whole-process solution to this. As Pilcrow doesn't attempt to create other files, there's little issue with doing it this way, but this is a design risk for future work if it creates files that are _intended_ to be readable by more than just the Pilcrow daemon user. Merges options-umask into main.

* | Remove remnant `html` class from swatch textinputs.Owen Jacobson2025-07-18
|/ | | | This was a leftover from the idea that different swatches might have different input notations - and they do, but we turned out not to need to style them differently. And, in any event, this class was applied (only) to inputs that _aren't HTML_, because of 01ed82ac4f89810161fbc3aa1cb8e4691fb8938b.
* Prevent race conditions between `cargo run` and `npx vite build` in `tools/run`.Owen Jacobson2025-07-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To reproduce: * Make any change (even just `touch`) to a file in `ui`. * Run `tools/run`. There's a decent chance that the script will fail, with esoteric and variable errors: ``` failed to load config from .../pilcrow/vite.config.js_api(buil... error when starting dev server: Error [ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND]: Cannot find package '@sveltejs/kit' imported from .../pilcrow/vite.config.js.timestamp-1752608239248-52b6b8965ad28.mjs ``` is one such exmple. These errors are due to the `npm ci` carried out by `cargo` at build time (see `build.rs`), which deletes and re-creates `node_modules`. Vite and Svelte do not like having `node_modules` deleted out from under them. As `cargo` will rerun `build.rs` any time `ui` changes, this means that `tools/run` effectively requires a complete build _first_, before it can be run.
* Create swatches for Svelte components.ojacobson2025-07-10
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A swatch is a live, and ideally editable, example of an element of the service. They serve as: * Documentation: what is this element, how do you use it, what does it do? * Demonstration: what does this element look like? * Manual test scaffolding: when I change this element like _so_, what happens? Swatches are collectively available under `/.swatch/` on a running instance. They do not require setup or login for simplicity's sake and because they don't _do_ anything that requires either of those things. Swatches are manually curated. First, we lack the technical infrastructure needed to do this based on static analysis, and second, manual curation lets us include affordances like "interesting values," that would be tricky to express as part of the type or schema for the component. The tradeoff, however, is that they will fall out of step with the components if not reviewed regularly. Swatches are _possible_ because we've gone to efforts to avoid global data access or direct side effects (including API requests) in our components, delegating that upwards to `+page`s and `+layout`s. However, the isolation is imperfect. For example, the swatch for `Conversation`, which renders the conversation sidebar entries, causes actual attempts to boot the app as browsers pre-fetch the links on mouseover, and clicking them will take the user to the "real" application because they really are links. Merges swatch into main.
| * Do not support users entering bare HTML in swatches.Owen Jacobson2025-07-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | You can inject Javascript into a swatch that uses `{@html <expr>}` fairly easily. `<script>foo()</script>` doesn't appear to work, but `<img src="x" onerror="foo()">` does, for example. That code then runs with the same access to cookies, and the same access to local data, as the Pilcrow client. This change removes that capability, by replacing the two swatches that exposed it with more limited examples. I love the generality and flexibility of generic HTML entry here, and I think it might have been useful for swatching components that are generic DOM containers (which both `Message` and `MessageRun` are today), but swatches are a user interface and are exposed to _all_ users. A user who is unfamiliar with HTML and Javascript, but who is persuaded to open a swatch and enter some code into it (think about an attacker who tells their victim "hey check out this funny thing that happens," preying on curiousity, while providing a lightly-obfuscated payload) can then impersonate that user, exfiltrate anything saved locally, or potentially install persistent code using JS' various background-processing APIs. Gnarly stuff. We're not up to mitigating that in place. Anyone who knows JS can likely learn to build the client from source, and can experiment with arbitrary input that way, taking responsibility for the results in the process, while anyone who doesn't is unlikely to be persuaded to set up an entire Node toolchain just for an exploit.

| * Create "derivers," as an exception-free option for working with structured ↵Owen Jacobson2025-07-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | data in swatches. This is meant to be used alongside `$derive`, for inputs with complex structure. For example: ```js let jsonInput = $state('{}'); let json = $derived(deriver.json(jsonInput)); // … <textarea bind:value={jsonInput}></textarea> ``` This allows textual editing of the data, while preventing exceptions due to syntax or logical errors in partially-edited data from breaking Svelte's derive process (see comments). Note that these exceptions are not considered [unexpected errors] by SvelteKit, because they do not arise "while handling a request;" they are considered errors by Svelte, but Svelte doesn't appear to provide any affordances for handling errors in this context, so we have to bring our own.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A swatch is a live, and ideally editable, example of an element of the service. They serve as: * Documentation: what is this element, how do you use it, what does it do? * Demonstration: what does this element look like? * Manual test scaffolding: when I change this element like _so_, what happens? Swatches are collectively available under `/.swatch/` on a running instance, and are set up in a separate [group] from the rest of the UI. They do not require setup or login for simplicity's sake and because they don't _do_ anything that requires either of those things. [group]: https://svelte.dev/docs/kit/advanced-routing#Advanced-layouts-(group) Swatches are manually curated, for a couple of reasons: * We lack the technical infrastructure needed to do this based on static analysis; and * Manual curation lets us include affordances like "recommended values," that would be tricky to express as part of the type or schema for the component. The tradeoff, however, is that swatches may fall out of step with the components they depic, if not reviewed regularly. I hope that, by making them part of the development process, this risk will be mitigated through regular use.
* | Remove container divs for `MessageInput` and `CreateConversationForm`.ojacobson2025-07-09
|\ \ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The styles for the `MessageInput` and `CreateConversationForm` components assumed that a container div would be present, and the components did not render as intended without that div. Therefore: the divs were "part of" the component in most of the ways that matter, not part of the context in which the component is used. It turns out that those divs aren't necessary or interesting anyways - they were targets for layout, but the same layout can be achieved without them. This change removes the divs entirely. Merges component-div-nesting into main.
| * | A few semantically-thin wrapper divs.Owen Jacobson2025-07-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | This is an extension of the previous commit: we don't need these divs _at all_ to achieve the layout we want, and we aren't attaching behaviour or semantics to them, so, out they go.
| * | Move container divs for components into those components.Owen Jacobson2025-07-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The styles for the `MessageInput` and `CreateConversationForm` components assume that the container div will be present, and the components will not render as intended without them. Therefore: they are "part of" the component in most of the ways that matter, not part of the context in which the component is used. Moving the divs into the component will make it easier to reuse these components (for example, in swatches). The diff for this looks worse than it is because of indentation changes.

Steps to reproduce: **Note**: You will need to watch the traffic in a DOM inspector; this has no user-observable symptoms because there's presently no error reporting for the login form. 1. In a new private tab, visit the `/login` page of a Pilcrow instance. 2. **Without touching the username or password fields**, click `sign in`. The client _should_ send a request to `/api/auth/login` with the following payload: ```json { "name": "", "password": "" } ``` However, it instead sends an empty payload, leading to a 422 Unprocessable Content response as the request is missing required fields. Subsequent requests, or any request after the user enters data in the input fields, are correctly serialized. Merges login-form-nulls into main.

* Rename "channels" to "conversations."ojacobson2025-07-04
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The term "channel" for a conversational container has a long and storied history, but is mostly evocative of IRC and of other, ah, "nerd-centric" services. It does show up in more widespread contexts: Discord and Slack both refer to their primary conversational containers as "channels," for example. However, I think it's unnecessary jargon, and I'd like to do away with it. To that end, this change pervasively changes one term to the other wherever it appears, with the following exceptions: * A `channel` concept (unrelated to conversations) is also provided by an external library; we can't and shouldn't try to rename that. * The code to deal with the `pilcrow:channelData` and `pilcrow:lastActiveChannel` local storage properties is still present, to migrate existing data to new keys. It will be removed in a later change. This is a **breaking API change**. As we are not yet managing any API compatibility promises, this is formally not an issue, but it is something to be aware of practically. The major API changes are: * Paths beginning with `/api/channels` are now under `/api/conversations`, without other modifications. * Fields labelled with `channel…` terms are now labelled with `conversation…` terms. For example, a `message` `sent` event is now sent to a `conversation`, not a `channel`. This is also a **breaking UI change**. Specifically, any saved paths for `/ch/CHANNELID` will now lead to a 404. The corresponding paths are `/c/CONVERSATIONID`. While I've made an effort to migrate the location of stored data, I have not tried to provide adapters to fix this specific issue, because the disruption is short-lived and very easily addressed by opening a channel in the client UI. This change is obnoxiously large and difficult to review, for which I apologize. If this shows up in `git annotate`, please forgive me. These kinds of renamings are hard to carry out without a major disruption, especially when the concept ("channel" in this case) is used so pervasively throughout the system. I think it's worth making this change that pervasively so that we don't have an indefinitely-long tail of "well, it's a conversation in the docs, but the table is called `channel` for historical reasons" type issues. Merges conversations-not-channels into main.
| * Rename "channel" to "conversation" throughout the client.Owen Jacobson2025-07-03
| | | | | | | | Existing client state, stored in local storage, is migrated to new keys (that mention "conversation" instead of "channel" where appropriate) the first time the client loads.
