Round-trip out a long-standing hole in the ACL feature: until
this commit a circle on Yavsc was an empty named bucket. You
could create 'Famille' and grant it on a post, but the circle
carried no members, so 'Famille' authorised no one. The MVC
admin controller (Yavsc.Org.Controllers.CircleMembersController)
existed but had no REST counterpart, so PostIt — which only
talks to the Yavsc.Blogs API — had no way to manage membership
at all.
This commit closes that gap end-to-end:
Server (Yavsc.Blogs)
- GET /api/circle/{id}/members list members
- POST /api/circle/{id}/members add a user (body { userId })
- DELETE /api/circle/{id}/members/{userId} remove a user
All three are scoped to caller == circle.OwnerId; non-owned
circles return 404 (not 403) to avoid leaking existence, in
line with the rest of the controller.
- Two new DTOs (CircleMemberDto, AddCircleMemberDto) for the
wire shapes. CircleMemberDto mirrors UserSearchResultDto
minus Email — membership UI doesn't need contact details.
Tests (Yavsc.Blogs.Tests)
- CircleMembersApiTests: 5 [Fact] covering empty list,
add+get, duplicate add → 409, remove, and cross-owner 404.
Test users (alice, bob) are seeded directly through the
in-memory DbContext — the Blogs fixture doesn't stand up
UserManager<ApplicationUser>.
Client (Yavsc.Api.Client)
- CircleMemberDto + 3 methods on CircleApiClient:
GetMembersAsync, AddMemberAsync, RemoveMemberAsync.
All match the server's contract: 404 flattens to null,
409 surfaces as an exception (callers can dedupe beforehand
if they want idempotent behaviour).
UI (PostIt)
- CirclesPageViewModel gains a Members ObservableCollection
that auto-loads on SelectedCircle change (via the partial
setter generated by [ObservableProperty]). Commands:
LoadMembersAsync, OpenAddMember (raises an event the view
subscribes to), OnAddMemberConfirmedAsync (called by the
view when the dialog confirms a selection), RemoveMemberAsync.
409 (already a member) is detected from the exception
message and surfaced as a friendly status rather than an
error — a likely race when the same user gets added twice
through two UI paths.
- CirclesPage layout is now two-pane (circles + editor on the
left, members of the selected circle on the right). The
member pane has an 'Ajouter un membre' button that opens
AddCircleMemberDialog. Code-behind wires the dialog's
Confirmed event back into the VM via an async lambda
wrapper (EventHandler<T> wants void, the VM method is
async Task).
- AddCircleMemberDialog is a ContentPage (light modal, same
pattern as PostAclDialog). Its ViewModel consumes
IUserDirectory — the abstraction introduced by 04a31709
to fix the 'user search should not be IContactService'
confusion. The dialog raises Confirmed with the picked
UserSummary; the host (CirclesPage) is responsible for
calling CircleApiClient.AddMemberAsync.
Out of scope (tracked in MEMORY.md, 2026-08-18):
- i18n: all visible text still hard-coded French.
- XAML accessibility audit of pre-existing pages.
- Avalonia.Headless UI tests of the new navigation flow.
Tests: 51/51 PostIt.Tests green, 20/20 Yavsc.Blogs.Tests
green (was 15; +5 for CircleMembersApiTests), 44/44
Yavsc.Org.Tests green (no regression).
The 'Save' button in PostIt has been returning 400 from
/api/v1/blog ever since the editor's title and article fields
were re-bound to SelectedPost.Title / SelectedPost.Article.
The user types into the editor, taps Save, the controller
rejects with 'The Title field is required', and the PostIt
status bar shows only the generic 'Response status code does
not indicate success: 400' — no field name, no reason.
Three pieces here make the regression diagnosable and pin a
test for the fix:
1. YavscApiClient: replace EnsureSuccessStatusCode() at both
call sites with a small helper that reads the response
body and embeds it in the thrown HttpRequestException. The
VM's existing catch (Exception) in ExecuteAsync forwards
ex.Message to the status bar, so the next 'click Save'
tells the user exactly which field the server rejected.
2. Yavsc.Blogs.Tests: two integration tests on the real
controller (no HTTP mock) — one pins that a well-formed
PostIt-shaped payload (Title + Article + AuthorId + dates,
Id=0) is accepted with 201, the other pins that a payload
with Title=string.Empty is rejected with 400. Together they
pin the contract the VM has to honour.
3. PostIt.Tests: a red [AvaloniaFact] UI test that mounts
MainPage inside a headless Window, types a title into the
TextBox without first selecting a post in the list, taps
Save, and asserts the body of the first POST contains
the typed title. Today this test fails with Title='',
reproducing the production 400. The matching fix (a
Title/Article buffer on MainPageViewModel that the XAML
binds to, and that Save uses to build the outgoing
BlogPost) is the next commit; the test is the safety net.
Wire the Blogs integration test host with a real AddJwtBearer
(HS256, IssuerSigningKey shared with the new TestTokenIssuer) and
the production BlogScope policy verbatim, instead of the
TestAuthPolicyProvider / AllowAllAuthorizationService /
NoopAuthHandler stack that short-circuited every authorization
check.
Why: BlogSpotService.Modify calls
IAuthorizationService.AuthorizeAsync(user, blog, EditPermission);
the previous AllowAllAuthorizationService stub made that a
no-op, so the tests could not exercise the real ownership chain
and any change in PermissionHandler would silently slip through.
The new test host registers the real PermissionHandler, so a PUT
that succeeds (204) is now proof that PermissionHandler.IsOwner
accepted the request — i.e. the JWT's sub matched the post's
AuthorId, end-to-end.
Notes for future-me:
- JwtSecurityTokenHandler.DefaultInboundClaimTypeMap.Clear() is
called once on the first Issue() to keep the 'sub' claim
literal; without it UserHelpers.GetUserId (which reads 'sub')
gets ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier instead, returns null, and the
owner check fails for every PUT. The companion
options.MapInboundClaims = false on the validation pipeline
keeps both sides in sync.
- Production still uses AddYavscJwtBearer against the OIDC
authority; the test-only HS256 path is local to the test
process and never crosses a network boundary.
Coverage:
- GetBlog_returns_401_when_no_token_is_provided — anonymous
request, real policy fails closed.
- PutBlog_with_valid_token_and_owner_returns_204_and_Get_
reflects_update — POST then PUT then GET, all behind a real
JWT, asserting 204 + list contains the updated title.
Packages added to Directory.Packages.props at 8.2.1 to match
what Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.JwtBearer 10.0.9 already
transitively pulls in (no version drift).
BlogApiController.PostBlog called Request.Form.Files
unconditionally, which throws on a plain JSON body — the
exception is "This request does not have a Content-Type header.
Forms are available from requests with bodies like POSTs and a
form Content-Type of either application/x-www-form-urlencoded or
multipart/form-data."
That broke PostIt's first-bill-of-blog flow: the client posts a
BlogPost as JSON and has no files to attach. The endpoint
contract is [FromBody] BlogPost, so the JSON body is deserialised
into 'blog' as expected — only the IFormFileCollection argument
to BlogSpotService.Create needs a real-or-empty value.
Branch on Request.HasFormContentType: pass the form files when
present, pass an empty FormFileCollection otherwise. BlogSpotService
already short-circuits on a null/empty file collection, so the
JSON-only path is now a clean code path.
Tests: add PostBlog_creates_a_post_and_Get_returns_it_in_the_list
(POST a draft, assert 201 + server-assigned Id, GET the index,
assert exactly one entry with that Id). Add a per-test
ResetDatabase helper because the in-memory store is shared across
the lifetime of the BlogsWebServerFixture instance.
First behavioural test for the Yavsc.Blogs API surface. Sends a
GET on the blog index with the X-Test-Role auth bypass and asserts
the response is 200 with an empty JSON array — the in-memory
ApplicationDbContext has no rows, and BlogSpotService.Index returns
an empty enumeration.
While here, fix a routing miss: AddControllers() in the test
fixture was only scanning the test assembly, so BlogApiController
was never registered. Add the Yavsc.Blogs application part
explicitly. Without this, every request to /api/v1/blog came back
as 404 — the same symptom PostIt was seeing in production.
The POST flow lands in the next commit, once BlogApiController is
made to accept JSON (it currently requires multipart/form-data
because of Request.Form.Files).
Adds the test project that the next commit will use to assert the
blog API endpoints. The fixture inherits from the shared
WebHostFixture (commit "refactor: extract WebHostFixture…") and
wires up only the bits the blog API needs:
* In-memory ApplicationDbContext — BlogSpotService is used as-is,
no mock. The first tests will exercise the real service against
an empty table.
* Trivial IFileSystemAuthManager stub (the GET index path never
reads the file system).
* TestAuthPolicyProvider swapped in, so X-Test-Role satisfies
[Authorize("BlogScope")].
Two smoke tests verify the fixture boots and the controller
pipeline is reachable. The first behavioural test
(GET /api/v1/blog → 200) lands in the next commit.
Also promotes two xunit.v3.* package versions to the root
Directory.Packages.props so future test projects can share them.
