Implemented comprehensive HAProxy options field support for both backend and frontend entities to enable standard HAProxy directives like 'option http-keep-alive', 'option httplog', 'option forwardfor', etc.
Changes:
- Database: Added 'options' TEXT column to backends and frontends tables
- Models: Added options field to BackendConfig, BackendConfigUpdate, and FrontendConfig
- API Endpoints: Updated CREATE, UPDATE, and GET endpoints to handle options field
* Backend: CREATE/UPDATE/GET with options support
* Frontend: CREATE/UPDATE/GET with options support (fixed 5 SELECT queries)
- Config Generator: Added options block generation for both backends and frontends
- Bulk Import Parser:
* Added options field to ParsedBackend and ParsedFrontend dataclasses
* Implemented option directive parsing with validation
* Added unknown option warnings
* Fixed bulk parse response to include options field
- Bulk Import Merge: Added options field comparison in UPDATE logic
- UI Components:
* BackendServers.js: Added options TextArea form field
* FrontendManagement.js: Added options TextArea form field
Features:
- Multi-line options support (newline-separated format)
- Option validation with known HAProxy options list
- Backward compatible (NULL options for existing entities)
- Bulk import support with merge strategy
- Full CRUD support for both manual and bulk operations
Technical Details:
- Format: Newline-separated TEXT field for multiple options
- Validation: Warns about unknown options but allows them
- Config Generation: Each option written as separate directive
- Agent: Standard HAProxy config validation applies

This is a comprehensive update that adds SSL certificate differentiation
for frontend (HAProxy bind) and server (backend verification) use cases.
FEATURES:
- SSL certificates can be marked as 'frontend' or 'server' usage type
- Frontend SSL: Private key REQUIRED (for HAProxy bind ssl crt)
- Server SSL: Private key OPTIONAL (CA cert only for backend verification)
- UI dropdown for usage type selection
- Dynamic form validation based on usage type
- Filtering: Frontends see only Frontend SSL, Backends see only Server SSL
DATABASE:
- Added usage_type column to ssl_certificates (default: 'frontend')
- Made private_key_content nullable for server SSL support
- Migration automatically runs on pod restart
BACKEND:
- Pydantic v2 compatibility (@field_validator, @model_validator)
- SSL router: usage_type filtering support
- Agent endpoint: usage_type field included
- Improved migration robustness with better error handling
- Fixed duplicate ensure_agents_table() function
- Fixed JSONB permissions insert with json.dumps()
- Fixed ON CONFLICT constraints with explicit checks
FRONTEND:
- SSL Management: Usage Type dropdown with visual feedback
- Frontend Management: Filters only Frontend SSL certificates
- Backend Servers: Filters only Server SSL certificates
- Dynamic private key validation (required for Frontend, optional for Server)
- Improved form UX with color-coded hints
AGENT SCRIPTS (Linux & macOS):
- Support for Server SSL without private key
- Conditional PEM file creation (cert+key vs cert-only)
- usage_type awareness in SSL deployment
- Backward compatible with existing Frontend SSL certificates
DOCKER:
- Increased npm timeout for slow networks (300s → 600s)
- Increased fetch-retries (5 → 10)
- Reduced maxsockets for stability (3 → 1)
All changes are backward compatible. Existing SSL certificates
default to 'frontend' type and continue working unchanged.
Tested with: HAProxy 2.8+, PostgreSQL 15, React 18
✨ New Features:
- Added use_backend_rules validator to Frontend model
- UI now supports editing use_backend rules from Frontend Management page
- Array to string conversion for use_backend rules in edit modal
🔧 Model Improvements:
- Changed use_backend_rules field type from Optional[str] to Any (list support)
- Added parse_use_backend_rules validator (same logic as ACL/redirect rules)
- Handles 3 formats: Array, Textarea string (newline-separated), JSON string
💡 UI Improvements:
- Frontend edit modal automatically converts use_backend array to multi-line text
- Users can edit routing rules line by line in textarea
- Format: 'use_backend BackendName if condition'
✅ Complete Workflow:
1. Bulk Import: Config parsed → ACL + use_backend stored as array
2. Frontend Edit: Arrays converted to multi-line string in textarea
3. User edits ACL/use_backend rules in UI
4. Save: Textarea string → validator → array → database
5. Config Generation: Array → HAProxy config format
Example workflow:
Parse: ['use_backend API if is_api']
→ Edit UI: 'use_backend API if is_api' (textarea)
→ User edits: 'use_backend API_v2 if is_api_v2'
→ Save: ['use_backend API_v2 if is_api_v2']
→ Generate: 'use_backend API_v2 if is_api_v2' (HAProxy config)
