Recent updates of dev/ruff and dev/pylint dependencies led
to new linting warnings.
Pylint 3.2.0 introduced a new check `possibly-used-before-assignment`,
which ensures variables are defined regardless of conditional statements.
Some if/else branches were missing defaults. These have been fixed.
Quick and dirty approach. It works, that's essential.
Frontend can pass a desired username for the user. This would
be the name displayed in the room to other participants.
Usernames don't need to be unique, but user identities do
If no username is passed, API will fall back to a default username.
Why? This serves as a security mechanism. If the API is called
incorrectly by a client, it maintains the previous behavior.
It seems appropriate that backend owns the responsability of knowing any
information/configurations of the LiveKit server. Then, it shares those
with the frontend.
Please see my previous commit to understand why environment variables are
not appropriate for deployment in several remove environments.
As of today, the LiveKit server URL is the only configuration exposed
dynamically to the frontend. Thus, it doesn't justify adding a new route
to the API, responsible for exposing configurations (e.g. /configuration).
As the frontend needs to call the backend when it wants to initiate a new
webconference room, let's pass the server URL when retrieving the room's token.
It is relevant, to get both the room location and the keys to open the room in
the same call.
I prefered to be pragmatic, if the need appears any soon, I would refactor
these parts.
I have updated all references of "Impress" to "Meet".
Migrations were manually updated and not regenerated. Never-mind,
they all will be squashed before the first release.
I have also searched for reference to "Magnify", and replaced them
by "Meet".
While updating the backend sources, I have also fixed other parts of
the project, namely:
- Compose file
- Github documentation and CI
- Makefile commands
Introduce CRUD API endpoints for the Rooms and ResourceAccess models.
The code follows the Magnify logic, with the exception that token generation
has been removed and replaced by a TODO item with a mocked value.
Proper integration of LiveKit will be added in future commits.
With the removal of group logic, some complex query sets can be simplified.
Previously, we checked for both direct and indirect access to a room.
Indirect access meant a room was shared with a group, and the user was a
member of that group. I haven’t simplified those query set, as I preferred
isolate changes in dedicated commits.
Additionally, all previous tests are still passing, although tests related
to groups have been removed.
