Both sides added a .gitignore rule in the same place: this branch's
exception for docs/email-oauth.md, and main's block for the local dev
TLS material. Keep both.
External storage meant S3 and nothing else, which is an odd hole for a
product whose users are as likely to be standing on Google Cloud as on
AWS — and paying to move bytes between two clouds to use this. The
Storage screen now asks which provider first, and the answer decides
which fields it shows, which it validates, and which driver the
files_external disk resolves to.
One disk, not two. files.disk is a stored column, so a third disk name
would fragment the data model and make every $file->disk consumer know
three names instead of two; the driver is swapped instead. A service
account key gets its own encrypted column rather than sharing `secret`,
because the two are validated, labelled and displayed differently and
one column meaning two things is how that goes wrong later.
Three things do not work by simply adding the adapter, and all three
fail quietly:
Laravel's temporaryUrl() looks for getTemporaryUrl() on the adapter,
while League's GCS adapter names it temporaryUrl(), so without the
registered callback every download and preview is a 500.
The two SDKs spell the signing options differently, and an unrecognised
one is dropped in silence — the symptom is a download named after the
storage key, not an exception. GoogleCloudStorageDriver translates, so
callers keep speaking one vocabulary, and the test asserts on the URL's
contents rather than on "a redirect happened", which is what would let
it regress.
That callback is also re-bound to the FilesystemAdapter before it runs,
so the translation is captured before registering rather than called as
$this->
`provider` is validated with 'sometimes', not 'required': absent means
S3, which is what every payload written before this choice meant, and
stops a browser holding a stale bundle from failing to save on a field
it cannot see.
Verified in a browser as well as in tests — which is how the null
provider on an unmigrated row was found, since the suite migrates and
never sees that state.
Same delegated shape as the Microsoft 365 provider, through the same
broker interface: the admin registers an OAuth client in Google Cloud
Console, connects the Google account the installation should send as,
and outgoing email goes through the Gmail API's messages.send as that
account.
The shared authorization-code machinery (exchange, refresh, token
storage, id_token account detection, RFC 6749 failure telling a dead
grant from a transient one) moves into an abstract OAuthCodeFlowBroker;
the two vendor brokers keep only their endpoints, scopes and consent
URL parameters. Google's quirks live where they belong: offline access
with a forced consent screen (the only way Google issues a refresh
token), and a refresh response that never re-sends one — the store
keeps what it has.
The settings screen needed no changes: the dropdown, the credential
form and the connect flow all derive from the provider enum.
Adds "Microsoft 365 (OAuth)" to the Email settings provider dropdown.
Selecting it swaps the SMTP form for an app registration (client id,
secret, optional tenant) and a "Connect mailbox" flow: the admin signs
into the mailbox the installation should send as, and outgoing email
goes through Graph sendMail as that mailbox — no password, no app
password, no SMTP AUTH, which Microsoft is winding down.
Delegated flow on purpose: it needs no admin consent and works for
work/school and personal accounts alike. Its one weakness — a grant
can die silently behind a password reset or a Conditional Access
change — is answered by a daily scheduled refresh that keeps the
token alive and, on a dead grant, warns the settings admins once
in-app and on the settings page instead of letting mail stop quietly.
Tokens and the client secret live encrypted in their own row and are
read fresh at send time, never through the boot-config cache. The
stored SMTP transport survives a provider switch untouched.
Failed queue jobs and read notifications both grow with use, and neither
ever shrank on its own. The failed-jobs list waited for somebody to press
"Delete all failed" — a fine tool for a backlog you are looking at, and
the only thing that ever emptied it. Notifications had nothing at all: one
row per recipient per event, kept for the life of the installation, on
what is easily the fastest-growing table here.
Both now have a retention window, set together on the Scheduler screen
under Housekeeping, and a nightly purge that honours it. Thirty days for
failed jobs and ninety for read notifications, and zero means keep
everything — the explicit choice somebody makes when a failure is evidence
rather than debris.
Unread notifications are never deleted, whatever their age. A notification
nobody has looked at is the one row in that table still doing its job, and
somebody back from four months away should find their news rather than a
clean slate. The activity log is untouched by any of this: it is an audit
trail, and it is never pruned.
Two things came out of building it. The API request log purge has been
running nightly since it shipped without ever appearing on the Scheduler
screen — so a failure of it was invisible on the screen that exists to
make failures visible — and there is now a test asserting the screen's
list and the schedule are the same list, because they had already drifted
once and would again.

Updating a server install cost nine artisan invocations plus a PHP-FPM
reload, written out in three places that had already drifted apart. One
of those steps is silently fatal to skip: with opcache.validate_timestamps
off — what production guides recommend and what our own image ships — the
database moves to the new version while every visitor keeps being served
the old code, and artisan reports the new version throughout.
`sudo ./update.sh` is now the whole procedure. It asks whether to check
GitHub, asks whether to download the release and verifies the checksum
published beside it, and asks whether there is a backup — offering to dump
the database when the answer is no. Then it takes the site down, replaces
the files, runs the update, reloads PHP-FPM, restarts the worker and
brings the site back. The application still has no self-updater: nothing
is fetched or applied unless somebody runs this and answers yes.
Underneath it is `php artisan projectsend:update`, which is everything an
update does that needs no root — and now the only definition of it. Both
container entrypoints call it instead of carrying their own copy of the
sequence, so the two paths cannot drift again.
Three findings worth keeping in the record, all from rehearsing rather
than reasoning:
- queue:restart has to come last. It writes its signal into the cache,
so clearing the cache afterwards deletes it and the worker runs old
code forever.
- optimize:clear is not safe to recommend. It runs cache:clear, which
on Redis is FLUSHDB — harmless on the default two-database layout,
but on a single-database Redis it takes the sessions and the queue
with it. The compiled caches are cleared individually instead.
- update.sh overwrites itself mid-run, because the zip contains it and
bash reads its own script lazily by byte offset. It re-execs from a
temporary copy before touching anything.
And when the reload is skipped anyway, the application now says so:
projectsend:update records the version it applied, and any staff page
compares that with what the running process actually compiled. The same
check catches the mirror image — new files in place, update never run.
Rehearsed end to end against real installs: a container upgrade (69 to 73
migrations, key and data intact, healthy), a scripted update on a real
nginx + php-fpm install with OPcache pinned (web process moved 2.1.0 to
2.1.1), the skipped-reload case (banner appears naming both versions, and
clears on reload), the refusals (downgrade, non-release zip, truncated
zip, URL passed to --zip, non-root), a database taken down mid-update
(site comes back out of maintenance mode by itself), and a real download
of the published 2.0.0 zip with its checksum verified.
