* Shut down the `/api/events` stream when the user logs out or their token ↵Owen Jacobson2024-09-29
| | | | | | | | expires. When tokens are revoked (logout or expiry), the server now publishes an internal event via the new `logins` event broadcaster. These events are used to guard the `/api/events` stream. When a token revocation event arrives for the token used to subscribe to the stream, the stream is cut short, disconnecting the client. In service of this, tokens now have IDs, which are non-confidential values that can be used to discuss tokens without their secrets being passed around unnecessarily. These IDs are not (at this time) exposed to clients, but they could be.
* Wrap credential and credential-holding types to prevent `Debug` leaks.Owen Jacobson2024-09-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | The following values are considered confidential, and should never be logged, even by accident: * `Password`, which is a durable bearer token for a specific Login; * `IdentitySecret`, which is an ephemeral but potentially long-lived bearer token for a specific Login; or * `IdentityToken`, which may hold cookies containing an `IdentitySecret`. These values are now wrapped in types whose `Debug` impls output opaque values, so that they can be included in structs that `#[derive(Debug)]` without requiring any additional care. The wrappers also avoid implementing `Display`, to prevent inadvertent `to_string()`s. We don't bother obfuscating `IdentitySecret`s in memory or in the `.hi` database. There's no point: we'd also need to store the information needed to de-obfuscate them, and they can be freely invalidated and replaced by blanking that table and asking everyone to log in again. Passwords _are_ obfuscated for storage, as they're intended to be durable.
* rustdoc comment for the (very limited) public API of the crate.Owen Jacobson2024-09-25
| | | | | | | | This silences some `-Wclippy::pedantic` warning, and it's just a good thing to do. I've made the choice to have the docs comment face programmers, and to provide `hi --help` and `hi -h` content via Clap attributes instead of inferring it from the docs comment. Internal (private) "rustdoc" comments have been converted to regular comments until I learn how to write better rustdoc.

* Expire messages after 90 days.Owen Jacobson2024-09-20
| | | | | | | | | | This is intended to manage storage growth. A community with broadly steady traffic will now reach a steady state (ish) where the amount of storage in use stays within a steady band. The 90 day threshold is a spitball; this should be made configurable for the community's needs. I've also hoisted expiry out into the `app` classes, to reduce the amount of non-database work repo types are doing. This should make it easier to make expiry configurable later on. Includes incidental cleanup and style changes.
* App methods now return errors that allow not-found cases to be distinguished.Owen Jacobson2024-09-18

* Express record dependencies through types.Owen Jacobson2024-09-17

* Consolidate most repository types into a repo module.Owen Jacobson2024-09-16
Having them contained in the individual endpoint groups conveyed an unintended sense that their intended scope was _only_ that endpoint group. It also made most repo-related import paths _quite_ long. This splits up the repos as follows: * "General applicability" repos - those that are only loosely connected to a single task, and are likely to be shared between tasks - go in crate::repo. * Specialized repos - those tightly connected to a specific task - go in the module for that task, under crate::PATH::repo. In both cases, each repo goes in its own submodule, to make it easier to use the module name as a namespace. Which category a repo goes in is a judgment call. `crate::channel::repo::broadcast` (formerly `channel::repo::messages`) is used outside of `crate::channel`, for example, but its main purpose is to support channel message broadcasts. It could arguably live under `crate::event::repo::channel`, but the resulting namespace is less legible to me.
