From e548f207bb4806fd73400ae2c731413be475efc1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: UNITRONIX <36471318+UNITRONIX@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Sun, 15 Mar 2026 19:20:11 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Auto-generate API key + runtime reload on 401 Fix Docker single-container auth gap by ensuring an API key exists and is discoverable by both the Go server and Node.js console. Changes: - betterdesk-server/main.go: loadAPIKey() now checks the server_config DB entry and, if absent, auto-generates a 32-byte hex API key, writes it to .api_key (with logging) and continues to sync to the DB. - docker/entrypoint.sh: generates/persists a 32-byte hex API key at container startup (uses openssl with /dev/urandom fallback) and writes API_KEY env to file if provided. - web-nodejs/services/betterdeskApi.js: adds fs import and an Axios 401 interceptor that reloads .api_key from disk once and retries the failed request to handle race conditions where the Go server generates the key after Node cached an empty value. - .github/copilot-instructions.md: documents the Docker API key auto-generation (Phase 16) and related fixes. - tasks/lessons.md and tasks/todo.md: add lightweight triage notes and actions. This resolves the issue where the Devices page returned empty results due to missing X-API-Key in the single-container Docker setup and improves resilience during first-run key generation. --- .github/copilot-instructions.md | 9 +++++++- betterdesk-server/main.go | 33 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- docker/entrypoint.sh | 20 +++++++++++++++++ tasks/lessons.md | 3 +++ web-nodejs/services/betterdeskApi.js | 22 +++++++++++++++++++ 5 files changed, 84 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tasks/lessons.md diff --git a/.github/copilot-instructions.md b/.github/copilot-instructions.md index 0b90ffb9..a1dced79 100644 --- a/.github/copilot-instructions.md +++ b/.github/copilot-instructions.md @@ -450,6 +450,12 @@ sudo apt-get install -y build-essential libsqlite3-dev pkg-config libssl-dev git 89.
