WorkflowRunner::isOverdue() took Card::getDaysUntilDue(), which Deck
computes by truncating both "now" and the due date to midnight before
diffing. A card due earlier today therefore reported 0 days until due -
not overdue - until the calendar date rolled over to the next day, so
a card due "this morning" sat unmoved for up to 24h while one due
"yesterday morning" moved immediately. isOverdue() now takes the due
date and $now directly and compares them as real timestamps, matching
what Deck's own UI shows.
Bump to 34.0.2.
getActiveCardsInStack() reassigned $cards to CardService::enrichCards()'s
return value. That return value is an array of CardDetails wrappers whose
own entity fields (duedate, stackId, ...) are never populated from the
wrapped card - only its overridden jsonSerialize() reads through to them.
So every card's getDuedate()/getDaysUntilDue() resolved to null, and
WorkflowRunner::isOverdue() was always false: no workflow could ever match
a card, regardless of its actual due date.
enrichCards() already mutates the original $cards entries in place (labels,
assigned users, comment counts, ...), so the fix is to keep using that
array instead of capturing the CardDetails return value.
Bump to 0.2.3.
Adds an info-level log line when a card passes a workflow's overdue/
filter checks, and another once the move to the target stack
succeeds - so a run can be traced per card/workflow in the log,
filterable by the app id.
A filter whose entries have all been deleted from the board was the one
failure mode of this app that was completely invisible: the workflow kept
running, kept updating last_run and matched nothing, forever. It happens
with deleted labels and just as easily when a filtered user loses board
access, because Deck's BoardService::deleteAcl() calls
assignedUsersMapper->deleteByParticipantOnBoard() and wipes that user's
card assignments.
Two low-stakes signals, no new column and no migration:
- WorkflowRunner::warnAboutDeadFilters() logs a warning on every run.
- workflowIssues in PersonalSettings.vue marks the row red.
Deliberately no mail and no `enabled = false`. One deleted label out of
three is harmless, and even a fully dead filter can be one board edit away
from being live again.
Both obey the rule the disable path already follows: only positive
knowledge. DeckIntegrationService::findFilterOptions() therefore throws
instead of degrading to [], unlike listLabels()/listParticipants(), where
an empty list only means an empty dropdown.
That also fixes an existing false positive of the same family:
loadStacksFor() stored [] when the request failed, so a single failed
fetch reported "Quell-Stapel und Ziel-Stapel nicht mehr vorhanden" for an
untouched board. Failed requests now store null and are read as "unknown".
The comparison itself lives in WorkflowRunner::findDeadFilters(), static
and side-effect free like cardMatchesFilters(), with unit tests -- notably
that an empty filter is never dead, which would otherwise flag every
unfiltered workflow.
Separately, the moved-card mail now names the board and both stacks.
DeckIntegrationService::describeTargets() resolves the titles at most once
per workflow run, and only when a card actually moved and the workflow
wants a mail; unreadable titles degrade to #<id> rather than costing the
user their notification.
Workflows were being switched off with "its board no longer exists or is
no longer available to you" for boards that were perfectly intact.
Deck does not read the session for permissions. PermissionService -- the
class behind every check, including the ones inside CardService::reorder()
-- takes the current user as a plain `private ?string $userId`, filled
from the app container's `userId` service (ISession::get('user_id'),
registered shared). Pimple resolves that once per process and caches it,
and ServerContainer caches Deck's app container just as long. In cron the
value is null whenever a Deck-owned job ran earlier in the same pass, and
otherwise the first workflow owner touched -- never the user being
impersonated. null fails every check, so Deck answered NoPermissionException
for an untouched board and findStackIds() read that as "the board is gone".
IUserSession::setUser() never had any effect on this path.
- DeckIntegrationService::beginUserContext()/endUserContext() pin
PermissionService (mandatory), CardService, BoardService and
ActivityManager (best effort) to the workflow owner, and restore them
afterwards. If PermissionService cannot be pinned, the runner skips that
user instead of acting under someone else's permissions.
- findStackIds() now takes the uid as an argument and is assembled from
pieces that cannot answer for the wrong user: BoardMapper and StackMapper
carry no user state, and getPermissions() is handed the uid explicitly.
It no longer goes through StackService::findAll().
- NoPermissionException is no longer treated as "board missing". Unknown
failures throw, which leaves the workflow enabled.
This also fixes the second half of the same defect: card moves silently
failed for every user except the first one processed in a cron pass.
Separately, RunWorkflowsJob is now a plain Job instead of a TimedJob and
runs on every cron pass. The workflow_deck_automation.interval config key
is gone. Time sensitivity is no longer merely declared but structurally
unreachable: JobList::add() leaves the column at its TIME_SENSITIVE
default, and the ratchet in setLastRun() only fires for TimedJob.
Deleting a board or stack left the workflow row pointing at nothing: Deck
keeps the orphaned cards readable until its DeleteCron purges them, so the
run kept failing on the move every few minutes, silently and forever.
- The controller now rejects boards and stacks that do not exist (or are not
the user's) on create and update, so no new broken row can be stored.
- The settings list marks affected workflows in red instead of showing a row
that looks healthy.
- The background job disables such a workflow and mails its owner once. The
mail ignores the notifyEmail flag: that one is about moved cards, this is a
notice that the automation stopped. It stays a one-off because a disabled
workflow is no longer picked up.
The check deliberately goes through StackService::findAll() rather than
BoardService::getUserBoards(): Deck injects the current user into BoardService
as a string frozen at construction, so in the job -- one process, many users,
a cached BoardService -- it would answer for the wrong user or for none, and
every workflow on the instance would have been disabled. findStackIds()
returns null only for a genuinely missing or forbidden board and throws for
anything else, so a Deck outage skips the workflow instead of killing it.
Deck's CardMapper::findAllByStack() filters on stack_id and archived only --
there is no deleted_at condition -- so getActiveCardsInStack() also returned
cards the user had deleted. They stay in the table until Deck's DeleteCron
purges them, which is long enough for an overdue one to get moved out of the
trash and back into a stack.
Job::start() calls setLastRun() before run() and clears `reserved_at` only
afterwards through setExecutionTime(), which is not in a finally block. Any
uncaught throwable therefore leaves the job reserved, and JobList::getNext()
skips reserved jobs until the reservation is 12 hours stale -- so a single
failing workflow takes the whole app offline for half a day, while last_run
still shows the start of that failed attempt.
Wrap both loops so a failure is logged with its exception and the remaining
users and workflows still run.
The mail named the card and the workflow but not what the card is about,
which meant opening Deck to know whether the move mattered.
The description is escaped explicitly: addBodyText() only calls
htmlspecialchars() when it has to derive the plain-text part itself, and we
pass both parts to get line breaks in the HTML body -- so escaping user
input is on us. Long descriptions are cut at 2000 characters.
Deck stores the description as Markdown; it is sent unrendered rather than
pulling in a parser for one mail.
The job was registered but never executed: `background-job:list` kept
showing last_run = 1970-01-01. It was marked TIME_INSENSITIVE, and
OC\Core\Service\CronService::runCli() reads `maintenance_window_start` and
calls jobList->getNext($onlyTimeSensitive = true) whenever the current UTC
hour is outside [start, start+4] -- so with a maintenance window configured,
time-insensitive jobs are skipped for the other 20 hours of the day.
A job whose entire purpose is a 5-minute (now configurable down to 60s)
reaction time is time-sensitive by definition.
Also fix the occ invocation in README.md and CLAUDE.md: background-job:worker
takes job classes, not an app id, so the documented
`background-job:worker workflow_deck_automation` matched nothing.
- Boards: BoardService::getUserBoards() defaults to $includeArchived = true,
and that flag also gates the `deleted_at = 0` condition, so archived and
trashed boards showed up in the dropdown. Request the filtered query
instead, with a fallback to the no-arg call if the signature ever changes.
Stacks need nothing: StackMapper::findAll() always filters deleted_at.
- Each stack dropdown now hides whatever the other one holds, so source and
target can no longer be set to the same stack. The save-time check stays
as the backstop for rows stored before this rule.
- RunWorkflowsJob reads its interval from config.php
('workflow_deck_automation.interval', seconds, default 300, clamped to a
60s minimum). TimedJob re-reads the interval on every cron pass, so a
changed value takes effect without any occ command.
The settings page rendered, but nothing in it worked:
- All NcSelect dropdowns showed "undefined" for every option. In
@nextcloud/vue 9 the `label` prop is vue-select's option display *key*,
not a caption, so `label="Board"` read `option.Board`. Use `input-label`.
- Saving always failed with "Bitte einen Titel angeben". Vue 3 dropped
`.sync`; NcTextField and NcCheckboxRadioSwitch bind via `modelValue`, so
`:value.sync` / `:checked.sync` never wrote back. Use `v-model`.
- NcButton's style prop is now `variant`, `type` is the native button type
and `native-type` is gone. `type="tertiary"` rendered
`<button type="tertiary">`, which HTML falls back to `submit` for, making
the cancel button submit the form.
- The user dropdown was always empty. Deck's RelationalEntity replaces
resolved relations with a RelationalObject once an entity is enriched, so
`$acl->getParticipant()` returns that wrapper and the uid lives in
`getPrimaryKey()` -- probing for `getUID()` yielded null. This also broke
the background job's assigned-user filter, which shares the extractor.
- A board's ACL never contains its owner (a private board has an empty
ACL), so participants are now seeded with the owner, group ACL entries
are expanded via IGroupManager and display names resolved via
IUserManager.
- One board appeared twice: getUserBoards() merges own/group/circle boards
and includes archived and trashed ones. Deduplicate by id and drop those.
Also keep one failing lookup in onBoardChange from taking the other two
dropdowns down with it, and document all of the above in CLAUDE.md.
@nextcloud/vite-config prefixes every entry name with the app id, so the
entry "workflow-deck-automation-personal-settings" was emitted as
js/workflow_deck_automation-workflow-deck-automation-personal-settings.mjs
while Util::addScript() was still asking for the unprefixed name. Nextcloud
found neither the script nor the style, so only the empty mount div rendered
and the settings page stayed blank.
Shorten the entry to "personal-settings" and pass the full on-disk basename
(APP_ID . '-personal-settings') to addScript()/addStyle(). Document the
prefix rule and the intentionally near-empty CSS entry stub in CLAUDE.md.
Ports the standalone due-date cron script into a proper Nextcloud 34
app with a personal-settings UI, per-user workflow configuration
(source/target stack, assigned-user and label filters, email
notification), a TimedJob background runner, and Gitea CI pipelines.
