# Contributing to certctl
|
||||
|
||||
## Architecture Conventions
|
||||
|
||||
certctl follows a strict **Handler -> Service -> Repository** layering.
|
||||
|
||||
**Handlers** define their own service interfaces (dependency inversion). A handler never imports a concrete service type. This means adding a method to a service requires updating the corresponding handler interface and mock.
|
||||
|
||||
**Services** contain business logic. Each service should have at most 5-6 direct dependencies. If a service exceeds ~500 lines or ~6 dependencies, decompose it using the facade/delegation pattern (see `CertificateService` -> `RevocationSvc` + `CAOperationsSvc` for the reference implementation).
|
||||
|
||||
**Repositories** are PostgreSQL implementations behind interfaces defined in `internal/repository/interfaces.go`. All SQL is hand-written (no ORM). Use `IF NOT EXISTS` for schema, `ON CONFLICT` for idempotent upserts.
|
||||
|
||||
**Connectors** implement pluggable interfaces for issuers (`issuer.Connector`), targets (`target.Connector`), and notifiers (`Notifier`). The `IssuerConnectorAdapter` bridges the connector-layer interface with the service-layer interface to maintain dependency inversion.
|
||||
|
||||
### When to Split vs. Extend
|
||||
|
||||
Split a component when it exceeds ~500 lines, mixes distinct responsibilities (e.g., CRUD + revocation + CRL generation), or has more than 6 dependencies. Use the facade pattern to avoid breaking handler interfaces.
|
||||
|
||||
Extend an existing component when the new functionality is tightly coupled to existing state and adding a new file would create unnecessary indirection.
|
||||
|
||||
## Middleware Stack Ordering
|
||||
|
||||
The HTTP middleware chain is order-sensitive. The current ordering in `cmd/server/main.go`:
|
||||
|
||||
1. `RequestID` - assigns a unique request ID
|
||||
2. `NewLogging` - structured slog middleware with request ID propagation
|
||||
3. `Recovery` - panic recovery (must be early to catch panics in later middleware)
|
||||
4. `NewBodyLimit` - request body size limits via `http.MaxBytesReader` (before auth to reject oversized payloads early)
|
||||
5. `NewCORS` - CORS preflight handling (deny-by-default)
|
||||
6. `NewAuth` - API key / JWT authentication
|
||||
7. `NewAuditLog` - records every API call to the audit trail (after auth so actor is available)
|
||||
|
||||
When rate limiting is enabled, `NewRateLimiter` is inserted between `NewBodyLimit` and `NewCORS`.
|
||||
|
||||
Contributors adding new middleware must respect this ordering. Body-level middleware goes before auth. Auth-dependent middleware goes after auth.
|
||||
|
||||
## Test Patterns and Conventions
|
||||
|
||||
### Test File Organization
|
||||
|
||||
Every package with production code should have corresponding `_test.go` files in the same package (not a `_test` package). Test helpers belong in `testutil_test.go` within the package.
|
||||
|
||||
### Mock Naming Convention
|
||||
|
||||
Mock types in test files must be **unexported** (lowercase). The convention:
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
// Good - unexported, test-only
|
||||
type mockCertificateService struct { ... }
|
||||
func newMockCertificateService() *mockCertificateService { ... }
|
||||
|
||||
// Bad - exported, leaks into package API
|
||||
type MockCertificateService struct { ... }
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Known exception:** Handler test files currently use exported Mock types (e.g., `MockCertificateService`). This is a known deviation being tracked for cleanup.
|
||||
|
||||
### Service Layer Tests
|
||||
|
||||
Service tests use mock repositories defined in `internal/service/testutil_test.go`. The pattern:
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
func TestMyService_Method(t *testing.T) {
|
||||
repo := newMockCertificateRepository()
|
||||
auditRepo := newMockAuditRepository()
|
||||
auditService := NewAuditService(auditRepo)
|
||||
svc := NewMyService(repo, auditService)
|
||||
|
||||
// Set up test data
|
||||
repo.AddCert(&domain.ManagedCertificate{...})
|
||||
|
||||
// Exercise
|
||||
err := svc.DoSomething(context.Background(), "cert-1")
|
||||
|
||||
// Verify
|
||||
if err != nil {
|
||||
t.Fatalf("expected no error, got: %v", err)
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Handler Layer Tests
|
||||
|
||||
Handler tests use `httptest.NewRequest` and `httptest.NewRecorder`. Each handler test file defines its own mock service type implementing the handler's service interface:
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
type mockFooService struct {
|
||||
err error
|
||||
// fields for capturing calls and returning data
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
func TestFooHandler_List(t *testing.T) {
|
||||
mock := &mockFooService{}
|
||||
handler := NewFooHandler(mock)
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Repository Integration Tests
|
||||
|
||||
Repository tests in `internal/repository/postgres/` use `testcontainers-go` to spin up a real PostgreSQL 16 container. Key patterns:
|
||||
|
||||
- `setupTestDB(t)` creates a shared container for the test run
|
||||
- `freshSchema(t, db)` creates an isolated PostgreSQL schema per test (`CREATE SCHEMA test_xxx; SET search_path TO test_xxx`)
|
||||
- All migrations are run in each schema so tests start with a clean database
|
||||
- Tests are skipped in CI short mode (`testing.Short()`) since they require Docker
|
||||
- Run locally with: `go test ./internal/repository/postgres/... -v`
|
||||
|
||||
### Fuzz Tests
|
||||
|
||||
Fuzz tests use Go's native `testing/fuzz` framework. Located in `*_fuzz_test.go` files. Seed corpora include known adversarial inputs (SQL injection, shell metacharacters, etc.). Run with: `go test -fuzz=FuzzValidateShellCommand ./internal/validation/...`
|
||||
|
||||
### CI Coverage Thresholds
|
||||
|
||||
The CI pipeline enforces per-layer coverage floors:
|
||||
|
||||
| Layer | Threshold | Package Pattern |
|
||||
|-------|-----------|-----------------|
|
||||
| Service | 60% | `internal/service` |
|
||||
| Handler | 60% | `internal/api/handler` |
|
||||
| Domain | 40% | `internal/domain` |
|
||||
| Middleware | 50% | `internal/api/middleware` |
|
||||
|
||||
Adding a new package with tests? Ensure it's included in the `go test` command in `.github/workflows/ci.yml`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Race Detection
|
||||
|
||||
All tests run with `-race` in CI. Never use shared mutable state without synchronization. The scheduler uses `sync/atomic.Bool` guards; follow the same pattern for any concurrent code.
|
||||
|
||||
## Adding New Features
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Domain model** in `internal/domain/` - types, constants, validation helpers
|
||||
2. **Migration** in `migrations/` - `000N_feature.up.sql` and `.down.sql`, idempotent
|
||||
3. **Repository interface** in `internal/repository/interfaces.go`, implementation in `internal/repository/postgres/`
|
||||
4. **Service** in `internal/service/` with tests
|
||||
5. **Handler** in `internal/api/handler/` defining its own service interface, with tests
|
||||
6. **Route registration** via `HandlerRegistry` struct in `internal/api/router/router.go`
|
||||
7. **Wire** in `cmd/server/main.go`
|
||||
8. **OpenAPI spec** update in `api/openapi.yaml`
|
||||
9. **GUI page** in `web/src/pages/` with route in `web/src/main.tsx`
|
||||
10. **Seed data** in `migrations/seed_demo.sql` for demo mode
|
||||
|
||||
Every backend feature ships with its corresponding GUI surface.
|
||||
|
||||
## Environment
|
||||
|
||||
- **Go 1.25+**, **PostgreSQL 16+**, **Node.js 22+** (frontend)
|
||||
- No ORM - raw `database/sql` + `lib/pq`
|
||||
- No web framework - `net/http` stdlib routing
|
||||
- Minimal dependencies: 5 direct Go dependencies (see `go.mod`)
|
||||
- Frontend: Vite + React 18 + TypeScript + TanStack Query + Recharts + Tailwind CSS
|
||||
|
||||
## Documentation That Should Exist But Doesn't Yet
|
||||
|
||||
The following are recommended future additions:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Architecture diagrams** (Mermaid in `docs/architecture.md` covers some, but data flow diagrams for key workflows like renewal and revocation would help)
|
||||
- **Threat model** (formal STRIDE analysis for the control plane, agent communication, and key management boundaries)
|
||||
- **Testing philosophy guide** (rationale for mock-vs-real testing decisions, when to use testcontainers vs mocks)
|
||||
- **Disaster recovery runbook** (PostgreSQL backup/restore, agent re-registration, CA key rotation procedures)
|
||||
- **Upgrade guide** (migration steps between major versions, breaking change policy)
|
||||
- **API versioning strategy** (how breaking changes will be handled when /api/v2 is needed)
