Sharing a file that is still being checked writes the assignment and
says nothing. The announcement goes out when the file becomes
available — a clean scan, a file let through while the scanner was
down, or an administrator releasing it from quarantine — so nobody is
ever sent to a page that refuses them, and a file about to be
quarantined is not announced to everyone before anybody knows.
Recipients are derived from the assignments as they stand at that
moment, not remembered from the moment of sharing: a share taken back
in the meantime produces no email, and one added does. New-version
notices ride the same path, which they had to anyway — the audience
rule re-checks visibility, and a file being scanned is not visible.
Two bugs found while writing the tests, both in the hourly command:
Re-queuing a file marked it pending first. Pending means withheld, so
running --existing over a library that predates scanning would have
hidden every file in it from every client for as long as the backfill
ran, and then announced each one to its recipients a second time when
it came back. The job now knows which state it expects instead, and a
rescan leaves the file downloadable until a verdict actually arrives.
Client file sharing, rebuilt from the ground up: a private area per
client, resumable uploads, folders, groups and categories, sharing with
expiry dates and download limits, comments, file versions, an activity
log, a REST API, and sixteen languages.
