WIP: addressing the layer-3 WindowingPlatformStub.NotSupportedException
crash on PostIt.Android by downgrading to the Avalonia 11 / Avalonia.Maui
11 stack, where the Android runtime platform layer (IWindowingPlatform)
gets properly bound via the MAUI embedding extension instead of being
left as a stub.
Touched files:
- src/PostIt/Directory.Packages.props:
- Avalonia 12.1.1 -> 11.3.20 (Avalonia, Avalonia.Android,
Avalonia.AvaloniaEdit, Avalonia.Browser, Avalonia.Desktop,
Avalonia.Fonts.Inter, Avalonia.Themes.Fluent).
- New: Avalonia.Maui 11.3.0.
- Microsoft.Maui.Essentials 10.0.100 -> 8.0.100 (aligns with the
Microsoft.Maui.Controls 8.0.x family that Avalonia.Maui 11.3.0
pulls transitively).
- New: Microsoft.Maui.Controls 8.0.100.
- src/PostIt/PostIt.Android/PostIt.Android.csproj:
- TargetFramework net10.0-android -> net9.0-android36.0 (Avalonia
Android 11.3.20 targets net8.0-android34.0, but the
compat-ascending fallback lets us consume from net9.0-android36.0
against the API-36 platform that's already installed locally).
- Add Avalonia.Maui PackageReference.
- Restore Microsoft.Maui.Essentials PackageReference (left in
earlier removal during the MAUI-cause-of-crash hypothesis check).
- src/PostIt/PostIt/PostIt.csproj: TargetFramework net10.0 -> net9.0
(must match what PostIt.Android consumes transitively, otherwise
the build chain breaks).
- src/Yavsc.Abstract/Yavsc.Abstract.csproj: net10.0 -> net9.0 (same
reason; six other consumers stay on net10.0 and pick up the new
assembly via standard TFM compat).
- src/Yavsc.Api.Client/Yavsc.Api.Client.csproj: net10.0 -> net9.0
(same reason).
- src/PostIt/PostIt.Android/Application.cs: rewritten as a bare
Android.App.Application. Avalonia 11 no longer ships
AvaloniaAndroidApplication<TApp> (that was an Avalonia 12
introduction); the Avalonia init now lives in MainActivity via
AvaloniaMainActivity<TApp>. The class is kept only so the
[Application] manifest entry remains.
- src/PostIt/PostIt.Android/MainActivity.cs: now inherits
AvaloniaMainActivity<App> and overrides CustomizeAppBuilder to
chain .UseMaui<PostIt.Maui.MauiEmbeddingApp>(this) before
.WithInterFont(). AvaloniaMainActivity<TApp> handles the
AvaloniaView initialisation in OnCreate.
- src/PostIt/PostIt/Maui/MauiEmbeddingApp.cs (new): empty
Microsoft.Maui.Controls.Application used as the embedding host for
Avalonia.Maui. The MAUI window it produces is consumed by the
Avalonia.Maui embedding pipeline and never surfaces to the user;
Avalonia owns the actual visual tree.
Build status: 11 errors remaining, all CS0234 / CS0246 against
'Avalonia.Controls.ContentPage'. Avalonia 11 did not ship
ContentPage (it's an Avalonia 12 type, presumably for MAUI parity).
All seven PostIt pages inherit ContentPage today and need to be
reworked to UserControl before the build can complete. Follow-up
commit will do that.
Reference: AGENTS.md, 'PostIt.Android boot crash sur AVD x86_64 :
investigation par couches', couche 3.
- PostIt.Android.csproj: drop Xamarin.AndroidX.Core.SplashScreen and
Xamarin.AndroidX.Browser. Neither is pulled transitively by
Avalonia.Android 12.1.1 (its nuspec declares only AppCompat +
Window), and they are not referenced anywhere in PostIt code.
- Resources/values-v31/styles.xml: drop the windowSplashScreen*
items and the 'postSplashScreenTheme' reference, which require
the dropped SplashScreen package. We fall back to the system
splash screen on Android 12+ devices; a custom one can come
back when we add it on purpose.
Two adjustments after the Android boot investigation
(cf. AGENTS.md section 'PostIt.Android boot crash sur AVD
x86_64 : investigation par couches'):
- Avalonia 12.0.4 -> 12.1.1 in PostIt/Directory.Packages.props.
12.1.x is the current Avalonia 12 stable line; 12.0.4 had a
known WindowingPlatformStub regression on Pixel x86_64 AVDs
(issue AvaloniaUI/Avalonia#18459 family). 12.1.1 does not
actually fix the layer-3 NotSupportedException on this
specific Pixel + Android 16 + x86_64 combination (verified
by rebuild + logcat capture on 2026-08-22), but staying on
12.0.4 forever is wrong, and 12.1.1 is the baseline most
users are on. The Makefile qemu-build already passes
-p:EmbedAssembliesIntoApk=true and -p:RuntimeIdentifier=
android-x64 to work around the Fast Deployment / AOT issues.
- qemu-logcat-boot LOGCAT_BOOT_WAIT 15s -> 30s. The crash
reproduces well under 5s, so the wait value is moot for
diagnosis, but 30s gives a wider margin when the runtime
happens to be slow to JIT (boot tries to draw a frame in
texture-pass scenarios). Override on the command line is
unchanged: 'make qemu-logcat-boot LOGCAT_BOOT_WAIT=N'.
No MAUI change: Microsoft.Maui.Essentials was deliberately
unhooked during a hypothesis check and put back to keep the
contact-flow code path stable. The MAUI removal made no
difference to the crash (verified).
TestWebApplicationFactory instances shared the same in-memory database
because EF Core's UseInMemoryDatabase("InMemory") returns the same
backing store to every DbContext that asks for it under the same
connection string, in the same process. Whichever fixture started
first defined the state, and every subsequent fixture inherited it,
making tests silently order-dependent and flaky.
Fix:
- Yavsc.Tests.Shared/InMemoryDatabaseName: helper that suffixes the
in-memory connection string with a per-fixture GUID.
- TestWebApplicationFactory: instance GUID + ConnectionStrings__
YavscConnection set as an environment variable in the constructor
and cleared in Dispose, so each factory gets its own backing store.
Env var is needed because IdentityServer8.EntityFramework exposes
ConfigureDbContext as Action<DbContextOptionsBuilder> with no
service-provider access, so the connection string is captured at
registration time. AddEnvironmentVariables is the last provider in
the config pipeline and wins regardless.
- WebServerFixture: process-static GUID (WebHostFixture is a
per-process singleton by design, so the test collection shares one
store; the GUID still isolates from TestWebApplicationFactory).
- AddIdentityDBAndStores: read the connection string at DbContext
construction time via the (sp, options) overload of AddDbContext,
so test fixtures can override it via the host's IConfiguration.
IdentityServer stores cannot do the same without subclassing the
framework's DbContexts; the env var path is the documented escape
hatch in HostingExtensions.AddIdentityServer.
- UsesInMemoryProvider: StartsWith instead of equality, so
'InMemory-{guid}' is still recognised as an in-memory connection
string.
Regression sentinel in
Controllers/TestWebApplicationFactoryIsolationTests: two factories
seed a marker client in the first, the second must not see it.
Suite: 45/45 over 3 stable runs, 13-15s each.
xUnit1051 in two cases that call
EstimateSignatureFileHelper.ReceiveEstimateSignatureAsync through
Assert.ThrowsAsync lambdas. The lambda body runs on a different
stack frame, so capturing TestContext.Current.CancellationToken
in a local variable before the lambda is required — otherwise
xUnit1051 still flags the call (the implicit 'default' from
the parameter default lives in the lambda's scope, not the
test's).
The 2 xUnit1013 warnings on BaseTestContext.GitClone remain —
unrelated, about visibility vs [Fact] attribute on a helper
method, structural cleanup for another commit.
xUnit1051: HTTP helpers (GetAsync, PostAsJsonAsync, PutAsJsonAsync,
DeleteAsync) accept a CancellationToken that the test runner can use
to cancel a long-running suite. Forwarding TestContext.Current.
CancellationToken to every call lets the runner respond to Ctrl+C /
--blame-hang-timeout at the granularity of a single test instead of
the whole process.
Covers PublishEndpointTests (10 calls), CircleMembersApiTests
(11 calls) and BlogApiMappedClaimsTests (9 calls). BlogApiTests.cs
was already clean after 1868ed86.
The 2026-08-21 prod 500 on POST /api/v1/blogacl was caused by the
PostIt client sending { circleId } only — the server deserialised
into CircleAuthorizationToBlogPost with BlogPostId = default(long) = 0,
and EF Core refused the INSERT with InvalidOperationException.
The PostIt-side fix lives in b82b6722 (enrich the payload with
blogPostId). This commit is the server-side guard: validate
BlogPostId > 0 in the controller and return 400 BadRequest instead
of letting the request reach SaveChangesAsync. The same shape that
crashed on 2026-08-21 now fails fast at the validation layer.
Verified by BlogAclApiTests.PostCircleAuthorization_dosent_return_500:
sentinel that asserts 'never 500' on a payload with BlogPostId = -1.
Previously red (500 from EF Core), now green (400 from the new guard).
The hard rule on POST /api/v1/blogacl is: a 500 is never acceptable,
regardless of the payload shape. The prod 500 logged on 2026-08-21 on
mercure was caused by the PostIt client sending { circleId } only, which
the server deserialised into CircleAuthorizationToBlogPost with
BlogPostId = default(long) = 0; EF Core refused the INSERT with
InvalidOperationException: The value of
'CircleAuthorizationToBlogPost.BlogPostId' is unknown. The PostIt fix
lives in b82b6722 (enrich the payload with blogPostId). The server-side
guard lives in this commit:
- BlogAclApiController.CheckOwner is now async and uses FirstOrDefaultAsync
instead of First, so it does not deadlock the request thread and
returns false on a missing circle (which the controller already maps
to ChallengeResult).
- BlogsWebServerFixture now seeds Alice, her Circle and her BlogPost
in ConfigurePipelineAsync, once at host startup, against the shared
SqliteConnection (Cache=Shared). EnsureCreated is idempotent and
runs against the connection that every DbContext resolves through,
so the test theory can POST payloads with real FK ids against a
schema that actually has the Circle / BlogSpot tables.
- BlogAclApiTests:
- PostCircleAuthorization_returns_201_when_payload_mirrors_PostIt_shape
is the regression sentinel for the prod fix.
- PostCircleAuthorization_never_returns_500 is a [Theory] over
several payload shapes; any future commit that reintroduces a
500 path turns it red. CleanupAcl at the start of each insert-
bearing test isolates against xUnit's no-guarantee-of-order
execution: a successful POST in test N would otherwise conflict
with test N+1 against the same (CircleId, BlogPostId) pair.
The bool Comment on CircleAuthorizationToBlogPost was dead code:
never read or written by any caller in src/, no UI exposure, no
behavioural semantics. The wire DTO (CircleAuthorization in
Yavsc.Abstract) doesn't carry it, no reader consumes it, and the
PostIt client builds its payload without it.
What changes:
- src/Yavsc.Server/Models/Access/CircleAuthorizationToBlogPost.cs:
remove the property.
- src/Yavsc.Blogs.Tests/BlogAclApiTests.cs: drop 'Comment = true'
from the existing test payload and trim the now-inaccurate XML
doc comment ('CircleId + BlogPostId + Comment' -> 'CircleId +
BlogPostId'). Also adds a new [Fact] pinning the prod bug
reported on 2026-08-21 (HTTP 500 'BlogPostId is unknown' when
PostIt POSTs the bare { circleId } shape). That test stays red:
the real fix for the 500 is in PostIt (payload needs blogPostId)
+ on the wire DTO + server-side validation, and lives in a
follow-up commit.
Migration:
- src/Yavsc.Org/Migrations/20260820232152_DropCommentFromCircleAuthorizationToBlogPost
drops the boolean 'Comment' column on CircleAuthorizationToBlogPost.
The generated scaffold also wanted to drop three 'ClientId1'
shadow FK columns on ClientScopes / ClientRedirectUris /
ClientGrantTypes (from leftover HasOne<Client>() overrides in
ApplicationDbContext.OnModelCreating); those were removed from
the .cs to keep the migration scoped to this fix. Cleaning up the
shadow property declarations themselves is left as a separate
task.
The ModelSnapshot still reflects the shadow 'ClientId1' columns
intentionally: they exist in the prod database today (all NULL),
and EF will rescaffold a drop migration for them on the next
'migrations add' regardless. No data loss.
Bundled end-of-branch commit on feat/postit-acl-members.
PostIt UI for circles + per-post ACL
- Reorganise PostIt.Tests into Auth/ and Blogs/ subfolders
(Bearer/OIDC scope tests vs. blog API fakes live where they
belong) and introduces PostItHeadlessCollection so the
Avalonia.Headless tests share a single xUnit collection
instead of contending with the EF-Core test host.
- Adds BlogAclApiTests (a brand-new behavioural layer over
POST /api/v1/blogacl) and the fakes it relies on
(BlogApiTestFakes, BlogPostAuthorDtoTests, AddCircleMember
DialogTests); pulls UserId-through-OIDC-sub path into
BearerScopeTests / FakeAuthorizingBrowser /
OidcStubAuthority.
- App.axaml.cs gets a small PushPageAsync touch-up the new
tests rely on.
- Drops UnitTest1.cs (xUnit scaffold, never used).
Yavsc.Blogs.Tests — SQLite instead of InMemory
- Bumps Yavsc.Blogs.Tests.csproj on
Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Sqlite and rewrites
BlogsWebServerFixture to hold a single shared
SqliteConnection (Cache=Shared) for the fixture lifetime,
with a sync Dispose close to dodge async teardown hangs.
Reason: the EF Core InMemory provider silently ignores FKs,
which masked the kind of bug we are about to pin in the
ACL tests. SQLite enforces them, so any future INSERT that
forgets to seed its parent rows fails loudly here instead
of passing the test and breaking prod.
- PublishEndpointTests and BlogApiSmokeTests get a one-line
tweak to follow the new connection lifecycle.
Foreign-key fallout: seed the default user in the fixture
- Adds BlogsWebServerFixture.SeedUser(userName). Now that
SQLite enforces BlogPost.AuthorId → AspNetUsers.Id, every
test that POST/PUT/DELETE a BlogPost and sends AuthorId=
'tester' in the payload needs an AspNetUsers row to satisfy
the FK or it returns 500 with SQLite Error 19.
- BlogApiTests wraps the existing ResetDatabase with a
ResetAndSeedDefaultUser helper for the six mutating tests;
the four GET-only and ModelState-only tests keep the bare
ResetDatabase.
- Side benefit: every test in Yavsc.Blogs.Tests now finishes
cleanly instead of hanging at teardown — previously a stuck
test held the shared SqliteConnection open and the next
tests waited indefinitely.
Verified: dotnet test src/Yavsc.Blogs.Tests passes 25/25
green from a clean run, no fixture teardown hang.
- CirclesPage: drop VisualRoot/MainWindow hack, switch to App.PushPageAsync(vm)
- CirclesPageViewModel: make OpenAddMemberAsync public so Avalonia XAML trampoline can call it
- AddCircleMemberDialog: bind SearchAsync/Add (drop Command suffix)
- UserSearchApiController: route under Constants.APIPrefix (= api/v1/user-search), matching the rest of Yavsc.Blogs controllers and the PostIt client's BlogsApiUrl default
Adds AndroidAppLaunchTests to PostIt.Tests, a Xamarin.UITest-based
smoke test that launches the installed com.CompanyName.PostIt app
on the running emulator and waits for the first Avalonia frame
to render. The test skips cleanly when the app is not installed.
Currently FAILS RED on the local emulator: the installed APK has
no Activity declared (am start returns result code=-92, ACTIVITY_NOT_FOUND),
and Xamarin.UITest's test server cannot reach /ping. This is a
guardian test that will turn green once EmbedAssembliesIntoApk=true
is set in PostIt.Android.csproj (follow-up commit).
Also adds a Debug launch config in .vscode/launch.json that runs
the test under vsdbg, enabling breakpoints and object inspection
when investigating the failure.
The two recent commits (3fbbafc4, 0065de70) replaced the
OpenSettingsRequested event + CurrentViewModel assignment with
App.PushPageAsync(vm): the VM resolves the target ViewModel
through DI, App resolves the Control through the ViewLocator,
guards against double-push, and pushes via NavRoot. The docs
were still describing the pre-refactor world.
Update three places:
- CONTRIBUTING.md — the "Navigation (PostIt)" rule now
describes App.PushPageAsync as the single channel and shows
the canonical OpenSettings command as the example.
- doc/architecture/postit.md — the Navigation section
distinguishes VM-first navigation (App.PushPageAsync) from
lifecycle signals (LoginSucceeded, LogoutCompleted) and
drops the obsolete OpenSettingsRequested row.
- src/PostIt/PostIt/App.axaml.cs — refresh the SettingsPage
singleton justification: point (c) now describes the
anti-empilement guard inside PushPageAsync, not the
OpenSettingsRequested handler that no longer exists.
No production behaviour change — doc only (and the inline
comment that referenced a removed event).
Three buttons on MainPage's toolbar are reported as inoperative
in the running app: ACL, Mes cercles, and [DEV] Signature. They
click but no dialog / page opens.
This commit adds headless UI tests that drive each button via
the Avalonia headless harness (KeyPressQwerty(Enter) on a
focused, x:Name'd button, per the CalculatorTests pattern in
Avalonia.Samples) and asserts the post-click top of
NavRoot.NavigationStack is a non-null Page.
The tests fail today on every button (stack size before == after
== 1): the click does not push anything. The bug is the user's
real complaint — the test is now wired to catch it.
To make the buttons reachable by the harness without walking
the visual tree (which does not see buttons hosted inside a
NavigationPage), name the two unnamed buttons:
- ACL -> ManageAclButton
- Mes cercles -> OpenCirclesButton
([DEV] Signature was already named OpenSignatureDevButton.)
The XAML change is cosmetic; bindings and commands are
untouched. The test pattern follows SessionStatusBannerTests:
new MainWindow().Show(), PushAsync(MainPage), drive controls via
their generated x:Name fields.
System.Text.Json cannot materialise an interface without a
polymorphic converter. Until this commit, BlogPostDto.Author
was typed as the abstract interface IApplicationUser, which
crashed the "load posts" call in PostIt whenever the server
returned a post with a populated Author object (the common
case — GET /api/BlogApi).
Fix:
* Introduce a minimum-viable wire DTO BlogPostAuthorDto in
Yavsc.Abstract.Blogspot (record: Id, UserName, Avatar).
These are the only fields the client UI actually needs;
the server-side ApplicationUser navigation is preserved
for permission checks and authorisation.
* Change IBlogPost.Author and BlogPostDto.Author from
IApplicationUser to BlogPostAuthorDto? (interface change,
breaking). The EF entity BlogPost keeps its full
ApplicationUser navigation property and exposes
IBlogPost.Author via an explicit interface implementation
that projects to BlogPostAuthorDto on demand (so EF can
still lazy-load the navigation without forcing an eager
join on every read).
* Restore the using directive that was accidentally removed
when the BlogPostDto property was rewritten (needed for
ICircleAuthorization in GetACL()).
Regression coverage (the missing test Paul flagged):
* Add BlogPostAuthorDtoTests in PostIt.Tests with four
scenarios that exercise the wire shape on the client side:
- A BlogPostDto JSON with a populated Author round-trips
through JsonSerializer without throwing and the three
fields (Id, UserName, Avatar) survive intact.
- A BlogPostDto JSON with explicit "author": null
deserialises with Author == null.
- A BlogPostDto JSON without any Author field at all
deserialises with Author == null (forward compat).
- The serialised shape of BlogPostAuthorDto uses camelCase
property names (matching the server's Web defaults), so
the field names on the wire don't drift without a test
catching it.
Tests: 55/55 PostIt.Tests (+4 new), 24/24 Yavsc.Blogs.Tests,
44/44 Yavsc.Org.Tests. No regressions.
Side note: yavsc.sln picks up Yavsc.Api.Client (added by
'feat/postit-acl' in 1.0.7 but never registered in the
solution file until now — probably auto-added by a recent
'dotnet build' that discovered the .csproj).
Replaces the previous 'Visibility enum' approach (commit 33ecfa7e,
reverted in 42625f5d) with the existing BlogSpotPublication
mechanism. Paul pointed out that the system already had a
publication table and a Publish field on BlogPostEditViewModel;
we just didn't expose it through the API.
The toggle is its own action on the API surface — a dedicated
endpoint rather than a field on the existing BlogPost wire
DTO. This keeps the BlogPostDto contract unchanged and avoids
shoe-horning 'Publish' into the entity model alongside
Title/Article (where the existing BlogSpotService.Modify
already takes two overloads and a third felt like drift).
Server (Yavsc.Blogs / Yavsc.Server)
- PUT /api/BlogApi/{id}/publish body { publish: bool }
Returns 204 on success, 404 when the post doesn't exist,
Challenge() (401) when the caller is not the author
(EditPermission gate). Idempotent: PUT because the
resulting state matches the body, not the request.
- BlogSpotService.SetPublishAsync(user, postId, publish)
factored out of the existing
Modify(BlogPostEditViewModel) inline toggle, so the new
endpoint reuses the same BlogSpotPublication row logic
(add row if missing on publish=true, remove row if
present on publish=false).
- BlogPost.IsPublished (NotMapped) is now hydrated by the
service after each Index/Details fetch — a single bulk
lookup, not N+1 — and surfaces through the wire JSON
so PostIt can show the current state without a follow-up
request.
- ApplicationUser nav properties (Posts, Book,
DeviceDeclaration, Connections, Circles, BlackList,
Rooms, RoomAccess, Membership, BlogComments) now carry
BOTH [JsonIgnore] (Newtonsoft) and
[System.Text.Json.Serialization.JsonIgnore] so the
Yavsc.Blogs test fixture (System.Text.Json) stops
exploding on object cycles when serialising
BlogPost.Author.Posts.Author.Posts. Production
(Yavsc.Org, NewtonsoftJson) was already safe via the
Newtonsoft-only attribute; this commit just makes the
Yavsc.Blogs side consistent.
Client (Yavsc.Api.Client)
- BlogApiClient.SetPublishAsync(id, publish) → PUT to the
new endpoint.
DTO wire (Yavsc.Abstract.Blogspot.BlogPost)
- BlogPostDto.IsPublished added. Same shape as the entity
field; serialised as a plain bool in JSON.
UI (PostIt)
- MainPageViewModel.DraftIsPublished (ObservableProperty)
mirrors the existing DraftTitle/DraftArticle pattern;
hydrated from SelectedPost.IsPublished on selection
change. TogglePublish command pushes the new state to
SetPublishAsync and updates both the buffer and the
selected post locally so the UI reflects the change
without a full Refresh.
- MainPage.axaml: a CheckBox 'Publié' in the toolbar,
bound to DraftIsPublished TwoWay and wired to
TogglePublishCommand. The toggle is its own action
(not part of Save), matching the wire contract.
Tests (Yavsc.Blogs.Tests)
- PublishEndpointTests (4 [Fact]):
* PUT publish=true returns 204 and IsPublished is true
in the next GET
* PUT publish=false clears IsPublished
* PUT on an unknown post returns 404
* PUT by a non-author does not return 204 (Challenge)
- BlogsWebServerFixture now wires
app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage() so 500s in tests
surface a real stack trace instead of an empty
InternalServerError body — much easier to diagnose
future regressions.
Test totals: 24/24 Yavsc.Blogs.Tests (was 20, +4
PublishEndpoint), 51/51 PostIt.Tests (no change), 44/44
Yavsc.Org.Tests (no change).
Out of scope (tracked in MEMORY.md, 2026-08-18):
- i18n: only the new 'Publié' label is localised; the
rest of MainPage.axaml is still hard-coded French.
- BlogPostEditViewModel.Publish ↔ IsPublished reconciliation
in the admin web Yavsc (the Org UI already edits Publish
inline; no work needed there).
Replace the implicit 'ACL empty = private' convention with an
explicit two-axis model: Visibility is the master switch, the
ACL is the exception list.
Semantics (matches what BlogSpotService.Index / Details enforce):
Visibility.Public + empty ACL : every caller sees it
Visibility.Public + non-empty : only author + ACL circles + admin
Visibility.Private + any ACL : only author + admin (ACL ignored)
ACL is preserved across
Private/Public flips so
reopening is lossless
The Public+non-empty shape is the 'restrict by exception' case:
open by default, narrowed by the ACL. This is intentionally
different from the previous behaviour, where a Public post
with a non-empty ACL was effectively ACL-restricted anyway —
the new model makes that explicit and removes ambiguity.
Server (Yavsc.Blogs / Yavsc.Server)
- New enum Visibility { Private, Public } in
Yavsc.Abstract.Blogspot (so the wire DTO and the EF entity
share the same type). Stored as int via .HasConversion<int>()
on BlogPost.Visibility. Default Private on construction;
the column default in the migration is 0 so existing rows
land Private without any data migration.
- BlogSpotService.Index: filter rewritten to honour the two-
axis model. Authenticated and anonymous callers now share
the same shape (Public+emptyACL visible to all, otherwise
scoped). Admin reads still go through PermissionHandler.
- PermissionHandler.IsPublic: dropped the blogSpotPublications
lookup, replaced with the Visibility + empty-ACL check that
matches the new model. PermissionHandler.IsSponsor and
IsOwner unchanged.
- UserHelpers.UserPosts (the per-author feed for
/CircleMembers/Details and similar): mirror of the
Index filter, so the two code paths can't silently diverge.
- BlogPostEditViewModel.Publish untouched on this commit. It
still controls whether a row exists in BlogSpotPublication;
the two systems coexist (Publish = 'is this draft published',
Visibility = 'who can read it'). Follow-up to consolidate.
EF migration (Yavsc.Org/Migrations/20260818143013_AddBlogPostVisibility)
- Scaffolded by 'dotnet ef migrations add', not hand-edited,
per the repo preference for generated migrations.
- Adds the new Visibility column (int, NOT NULL, default 0).
- Also drops three shadow-state ClientId1 foreign keys and
their indexes/columns on ClientScopes, ClientRedirectUris,
ClientGrantTypes. These shadow FKs were created by EF from
HasOne<Client>().HasForeignKey(e => e.ClientId) mappings
that have long since been removed from
ApplicationDbContext.OnModelCreating, but the snapshot was
never regenerated against the current model. The columns
are nullable ints with no production data, so the drop is
lossless. Without this, EF Core would keep emitting
warnings on every migration add and the model would drift
further from reality.
DTO wire (Yavsc.Abstract.Blogspot.BlogPost)
- Visibility property added to BlogPostDto. System.Text.Json
serialises the enum as its underlying int, so the JSON
shape is a plain number, no JsonConverter needed.
Client UI (PostIt)
- MainPageViewModel: DraftVisibility ObservableProperty
mirroring the existing DraftTitle/DraftArticle pattern.
Initialised to Private so a fresh draft is private by
default. Save command writes the chosen value into the
BlogPostDto payload for both CreatePostAsync and
UpdatePostAsync. OnSelectedPostChanged hydrates the buffer
from the server-supplied value.
- AllVisibilities property on the VM exposes [Private, Public]
in that order, bound by the ComboBox in MainPage.axaml.
- VisibilityLabelConverter (PostIt.Views) maps the enum to
French user-facing labels ('Privé' / 'Public'); registered
in App.axaml as a static resource.
- MainPage.axaml: a new ComboBox row in the editor pane
between Title and Article. Uses the existing 'no hardcoded
Background without Foreground' lesson so dark mode works.
Tests (Yavsc.Blogs.Tests)
- BlogVisibilityTests (5 [Fact]): drive GET /api/v1/blog with
Visibility fixtures seeded directly in the in-memory DB:
* Private + ACL: only the author sees it
* Public + empty ACL: any authenticated caller sees it
* Public + non-empty ACL: caller without ACL membership
does NOT see it
* Private + ACL: ACL is ignored, only the author sees it
* Visibility round-trips through the JSON wire (int 1)
- UserHelpersVisibilityTests (4 [Fact]): exercise the helper
directly so the two code paths (Index filter vs per-author
feed) can't diverge silently. Same fixture, no HTTP.
Test totals: 29/29 Yavsc.Blogs.Tests (was 20, +5 BlogVisibility
+4 UserHelpersVisibility), 51/51 PostIt.Tests (no change), 44/44
Yavsc.Org.Tests (no change).
Out of scope (tracked in MEMORY.md, 2026-08-18):
- i18n: only the new 'Visibilité :' label is localised; the
rest of MainPage.axaml is still hard-coded French.
- BlogPostEditViewModel.Publish ↔ Visibility consolidation
(which system wins when both are set on the same post?).
- Org-side UI for editing Visibility (the admin web Yavsc
still edits posts without a visibility field).
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 scoping that landed in e376aed8 ("restrict Circle + BlogAcl
reads and writes to caller's own data") reads the caller's uid
with User.FindFirstValue(ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier). That works
when the JWT bearer middleware remaps the "sub" claim to the
long ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier URI — which is the default
behaviour. But the BlogsWebServerFixture test host and any host
that sets MapInboundClaims = false (preserved here to keep
"sub" as "sub" for the resource-based ownership checks in
BlogSpotService) end up with no ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier claim
at all, only "sub". On those hosts, every OwnerId == uid
filter silently returns nothing, so the controller responds 404
even for the caller's own circles.
Switch to the canonical User.GetUserId() extension helper
(Yavsc.Server.Helpers.UserHelpers), which tries "sub" first,
then ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier, then "nameid". This aligns
CircleApiController with BlogApiController (which already uses
GetUserId()) and restores correct behaviour on hosts that run
with MapInboundClaims = false.
Drop the now-unused System.Security.Claims using.
No behavioural change for production: there, MapInboundClaims
remains true, ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier is populated, and
GetUserId() returns the same value as FindFirstValue would have.
