The scanner builds library -> series -> season -> episode; this makes it
reachable. Three reads, all grant-checked through catalog.Store (ADR-005):
a series' seasons, a season's episodes, and the next unwatched episode.
Each loads the parent through ItemFor first, so forbidden and absent are the
same ErrNotFound, and the child query is scoped to the parent's own
library_id so a corrupt parent_id cannot cross a library boundary. Verified
red-green: swapping ItemFor for Item returns two rows to an ungranted
caller.
Episodes come back in episode order, not insertion order, and the ordering
is verified red-green too - dropping the clause yields [3 1 10 2].
Routes stay inside the existing family: /api/v1/items/{id}/seasons,
/episodes and /next. No parallel route surface.
Jellyfin gains SeriesDto, SeasonDto and EpisodeDto. Jellyfin's wire type is
BaseItemDto, so these carry the folder/file split plus IndexNumber and
ParentIndexNumber. ItemType now takes the item rather than the kind, because
an episode IS kind video - that is the one signature change, and the dto
tests were updated with it.
Verified end-to-end against a running server: a library holding S01E02,
1x02, a bare-number file and a film produced two series, three seasons and
six episodes, with the film left alone; the routes returned the seasons in
order, the episodes in episode order, and the next unwatched episode.
Note for later: Subsonic and the web UI are untouched, so a series browses
there as it did before. The scanner also has no separate 'tv' kind, so a
video library mixing films and shows builds both shapes side by side.
EXPAND ONLY, per the migration order (expand, migrate, verify, contract). No
Postgres implementation, no behaviour change.
internal/catalog now exposes:
type Store interface {
Item / ItemFor / Files / FilesFor / FileByID / FirstFile / FileCount
}
type SQL struct{ db *sql.DB }; func New(db *sql.DB) *SQL
The seven bodies are the old functions moved verbatim. ItemFor still returns the
same ErrNotFound for absent and forbidden, so the security property is
unchanged. A compile-time `var _ Store = (*SQL)(nil)` keeps the implementation
honest.
Deliberately NOT moved: browse lists, home shelves and subsonic album queries.
Those are each package's own presentation concern, and pulling all of them into
the seam is exactly the 186-statement rewrite the seam exists to avoid. The
package doc says so.
Proven substitutable, not just declared: store_test.go implements a fake Store
in memory with no database at all and drives a caller through the interface. A
seam nobody can substitute proves nothing.
The agent's own risk note was right and I acted on it: the seam only pays off
once something actually threads it, and initially nothing did. So internal/
playback — the smallest consumer — now takes a catalog.Store instead of *sql.DB
and is wired with catalog.New(db) at the composition point. It has no database
reference left outside a comment. The remaining consumers (media, jellyfin,
subsonic, metadata) still call the package-level wrappers; threading them is
mechanical, and I would rather do it deliberately than in one sweep.
Verified: gofmt clean, build exit 0, vet exit 0, 25 packages pass, arch rules
pass. End to end against a running server: /playback/resolve still returns
vcodec:hevc for html5 and engine mpv when mpv is offered, an unknown item 404s,
/home and Jellyfin /Items still answer.
Known gap, unchanged by this commit: internal/arch does not enforce "new code
must not take *sql.DB", so the seam can erode by drift. That rule would be the
natural next step if this is to hold.
Motivation, from the evidence rather than from taste. Five packages each
implemented "load an item, then check the caller may read it": media, comics,
games, jellyfin (with its own dbItem type and its own SQL), and subsonic. Five
copies of one authorization rule means four can drift, and the failure mode is
not a crash — it is silently serving somebody a library they were never granted.
One implementation is one thing to review.
internal/catalog now owns item and file access, and the access check.
LoadUnchecked(ctx, db, id) -- no access check; jobs and tests only
LoadFor(ctx, db, u, id) -- load AND enforce the grant, in one call
Files / FilesFor / FileByID / FirstFile / FileCount
The unchecked variant is deliberately named so that reaching for it by accident
is hard: it is the dangerous call, so it should not have the friendlier name.
This came from the interface-design rule that a good interface makes the right
thing easy and the wrong thing hard.
The security property is tested, not asserted: a forbidden item and an absent
item return byte-identical errors, so no handler can leak the existence of
another user's library through a 403. That is now enforced in one place.
Migrated all five surfaces onto it. media, comics, games and ebooks went from
four duplicate loaders to zero. jellyfin's dbItem and loadDBItem are gone.
subsonic's per-item authorization moved while its album/artist aggregate
projections stayed put, because grouping items into albums is a presentation
concern, not a data-access one. The remaining raw SQL everywhere is browse and
aggregate queries; no per-item load decides access any more.
internal/arch enforces the layering instead of documenting it. Five rules, each
proven able to fail by deliberately breaking it:
- no upward imports across six explicit layers
- internal/core may depend only on migrations
- internal/catalog must not know about HTTP, or it stops being reusable
- modules must not import each other
- every package must be placed in a layer, so the map cannot go stale
A test that only ever passes is decoration, so each rule was verified by
introducing the violation and confirming the failure.
Verified: gofmt clean, go build ./... exit 0, go vet exit 0, 20 packages pass,
svelte-check 0/0. End to end against a running server: the vellum API serves
item detail with codec facts, an unknown item 404s, Jellyfin AuthenticateByName
mints a token and /Items browses, and Subsonic ping returns status ok. The
subsonic migration was additionally A/B'd byte-identical against the previous
implementation across ~15 endpoints, and Jellyfin/Subsonic both still return the
same error for a forbidden item as for an absent one.
Known follow-ups, recorded rather than silently skipped:
- internal/jellyfin has no test files at all. Its wire contract is the most
client-visible surface in the tree and is now verified only by hand.
- catalog is item-centric, but Subsonic addresses songs file-first (mf-<id>),
so it resolves file to item through its own projection. A catalog lookup
that takes a file id would close that.
- subsonic loadAlbum now scopes the projection to the item's own library
rather than all visible audio libraries. Equivalent by construction, since
an item's kind tracks its library's kind, but a hand-edited mismatch would
differ.
