Closes #241

TODO:

  • Delete indexed data from the project-specific database (will be follow-up)
  • Update sync mode? (may need a separate PR to introduce said sync mode) (will be follow-up)

@gmaclennan do you mind taking a look at what's currently implemented here and let me know what glaring omissions there are? mostly have uncertainties around the steps that need to happen within the $leave() method (e.g. data deletion)

This approach is looking correct to me. However we don't currently have a way to assign a role, so it's not exactly working as expected - see #413. Initial fix in #414 but that just causes project.$leave() to throw right now.

This also raises questions for me about the implementation of Capabilities. The idea is that DEFAULT_CAPABILITIES will eventually move into the database, and can be edited by users. I think there are two separate types of roles:

  1. "invitable roles" - e.g. roles that someone with the right capability can assign to a new device in a project. These should also be the only roles that can be assigned with $member.assignRole().
  2. "special roles" used to implement internal details of the capability system - "creator", "blocked device" and "left of own choice". I think those assignments should only be used internally, e.g. we should implement a $member.block() method, and we have this project.$leave() method.

I think we should implement a capabilities.getRoles() function or similar which currently returns the corodinator and member roles, but in the future will read from the database. We can then use this as an assertion in assignRole().

I think maybe we give the "leave" role special treatment - any role can assign the leave role to themselves, apart from a device with the blocked role - hence blocked should be treated as a "special role" with slightly different rules.

I think this PR is blocked for now by #413 which we should resolve first.

@gmaclennan do you mind taking another look at the changes here and providing input on what else is needed? Not sure what from #410 (review) should be done separately, and not sure if the TODOs I have in the changes diff reflect what's needed

The more I'm looking at this, the more it seems that this change isn't necessary (i.e. NO_ROLE being able to assign LEFT), but would like confirmation before undoing

I think this makes sense but not entirely sure. My assumption is that once you leave a project, you shouldn't be able to access this kind of information, but maybe that's too strict in this case?

Haven't implemented yet because I have questions about how this should be done. Is it just a naive db.delete(...)? (where db = new Database(this.#sqlite))

Wondering if the deletion of data in sqlite should be handled by something like CoreManager.deleteData()? A little bit tangled with the different boundaries and what should be responsible for this 😅

This looks good to me, I think the behaviour is all correct, although there are a couple of changes that could be made to make it a bit less fragile and also a possible structure change:

  • Comparing roles based on the capability.name property is fragile if we start storing these records in the database (instead of hard-coding them) then we need to remember to never allow the name to change. Listing role records I think is a more robust way of doing what you want (I think that would work, but haven't tried it myself).
  • Possible change to whether we keep LEFT_ROLE_ID in the roleAssignment array, or treat it as a special case. I think it's fine as you have it, but we should document somewhere to make sure it is always included in roleAssignment if we use this approach.
  • Looking at all the parameters that now need to be passed to a project instance, I wonder whether it makes sense to split project.$leave into two methods? A private project[kleave]() method and manager.leaveProject(projectId). I think it's fine as it is, I think just that adding all these other parameters that a project instance must know about feels not quite right to me, but not sure if that's just aesthetics or there is a concrete reason for that.

I think the only thing missing is deleting the indexed data in the sqliteDb, but maybe that can be in a follow-up PR so that we can get this completed and merged?

Doing this comparison on .name seems fragile - we would need to ensure that we never change .name in the codebase, or things would break.

I think what we need here is to do dataTypes.role.getAll(), which will return an array of records where docId === deviceId and you can read the roleId.

this is getting trickier than expected. feels like I'm doing some logic that's done by Capabilities.getAll() in order to account for edge cases 🤔

I think it's ok to do it this way, although it does mean that we need to make it a hard requirement that all capability records can assign this (although there is the open question of whether a blocked user can also leave - they wouldn't be able to leave for other reasons, because they would not be able to write to the project any more).

An alternative approach would be to not include LEFT_ROLE_ID in the roleAssignments property and instead add this check to line 318 (if (!ownCapabilities.roleAssignment.includes(roleId)) {).
