Implement the core anti-fraud primitive: an append-only, hash-chained,
signed event log (the schema + types predated this; the writer/signer are new).
- EventLog (apps/server): serialized append, monotonic index, prevHash chain,
signature; verifyChain() detects tamper/reorder/delete. No update/delete paths.
- Signer abstraction (packages/shared) over the ATECC608 secure element, with a
SoftwareSigner (HMAC, EVENT_SIGNING_KEY) shipped now since the chip is still
open-question #6. Documented: software signer is tamper-evident but NOT
unforgeable-by-owner.
- Add ParkingEventType "input_received" for raw device inputs (not yet a
vehicle_entry, which the entry flow will append later).
- Read API: GET /api/events; integrity self-check: GET /api/events/verify (admin).
Verified on hardware: shorting the Dingtian inputs produced signed, chained
input_received events; verifyChain ok; direct DB tamper/delete detected.
NOTE: the log captures host-originated actions only. Out-of-band relay
actuation (sniffed relay_pw, string protocol, ip_watchdog) produces no event
by design -- the control is reconciliation vs. an independent witness, which is
not yet built. See wiki/concepts/append-only-event-chain.md.
Add the rongta PrinterDevice driver (ESC/POS over raw TCP 9100) and the
device-agnostic pieces around it:
- Roles + failover: each printer declares a role (entry-dispenser/booth-
receipt) and failoverRank; printer-routing.ts picks the best healthy printer
and falls back outside->booth for entry tickets (never the reverse).
- Live status: MonitorableDevice.readStatus()/PrinterStatus capability. The
Rongta driver scrapes the device's own /prn_stat.htm (Cover/Cutter/Paper
End/Near End/Off-Line) rather than hand-decoding DLE EOT, whose reply bytes
on this clone don't match the canonical ESC/POS bit layout (verified on
hardware) -- avoids a false-healthy. Maps to ready/degraded/offline, fail
safe on an unreachable or unexpected page.
- Server PrinterMonitor polls enabled printers (PRINTER_POLL_MS, default 5s),
caches latest, emits "printer-status" on change. Exposed via
GET /api/printers/status and an SSE stream for the booth UI.
Verified against 10.0.10.6: ready when healthy, offline when unreachable
(no throw), bus emits on change and suppresses unchanged reads.
Wiki: new rongta-printer entity, printer-roles-failover and
printer-status-monitoring concepts; BOM/index/log updated.
Secure the device→backend input push, and configure it automatically when the
admin assigns the device (no manual URL/secret entry).
Auth — HTTP Digest (chosen by hardware testing: the device can't push to a
self-signed HTTPS backend, but does Digest correctly; a URL token is sniffable/
logged):
- digest-auth.ts: MD5 qop=auth challenge/verify, single-use nonces (replay
resistance). Password never crosses the wire.
- push route: Digest + source-IP allowlist; per-device pushUser/pushPassword from
lane_devices. Still not behind the SPA cookie/CSRF auth (machine call). The
signed event log remains the real anti-fraud guarantee.
Auto-config on assign:
- setup assign: for push-capable devices, generate Digest creds, call
configureInputPush to write them + the push URLs to the device, store the creds
(password not echoed back). net.ts derives the backend IP on the device's
subnet (BACKEND_HOST_IP override).
- driver configureInputPush sets auth=2 + creds; PushConfig carries the creds.
- removed the earlier URL-token approach.
Two hard-won device-write bugs fixed in the driver:
- configApi now sets an explicit Content-Length — the device silently ignores
chunked request bodies (Node's default without Content-Length), so every config
write looked successful ({"status":0}) but did nothing. This was the root cause
of the session's "writes don't apply" mystery.
- #writeConfig polls until the change is verified, retrying (the device reboots on
apply; back-to-back writes were lost). The `pass` field caps at 31 chars, so the
generated password is 24 hex chars.
Verified on hardware: assign auto-configures the device; all 4 inputs then push
with Digest auth, zero failures. wiki/device-input-flow updated.
The device pushes button events to the backend via its Input Link URL feature;
the backend decides. No polling — the chosen entry architecture.
packages/devices:
- dingtian driver: configureInputPush() writes the device's input_link_url
config (per-input server/port/path, en=1, active-LOW, plain HTTP) so each
input HTTP-GETs the backend on press/release. Extracted #readConfig/#writeConfig
(with the required command:setconfig injection + post-write reset tolerance).
apps/server:
- routes/devices.ts: public GET/POST
/api/devices/dingtian/:deviceId/input/:n/{on,off} — translates a device push
into an internal device event. Not behind cookie/CSRF (machine call from the
device); trust comes from the signed event log, not this request.
- device-events.ts: internal EventEmitter bus so the entry flow subscribes to
input events without coupling to HTTP. Wired into the server.
Verified on hardware: configured the device, then real presses on all 4 inputs
pushed to the backend (input N on+off, source = device IP). No polling.
wiki: device-input-flow concept (path + trust model for the flat/no-VLAN
network); dingtian-relay updated; index + log.
Replace the dev-only token shim with real authentication.
Backend:
- @fastify/cookie; JWT carried in an HttpOnly + SameSite=Strict cookie
(parking_token), read from the cookie not the Authorization header.
- Double-submit CSRF: readable parking_csrf cookie + X-CSRF-Token header, both
cross-checked against a csrf claim baked into the JWT; enforced on mutations.
- Routes: POST /api/auth/login (bcrypt, constant-time-ish), POST logout,
GET me. requireRole now verifies the cookie + CSRF + role.
- seed-admin script (pnpm --filter @parking/server seed-admin) for the first
admin; no bootstrap endpoint.
- Removed SETUP_AUTH_BYPASS and catalog.authBypass entirely; setup endpoints
use the cookie admin guard like everything else.
Frontend:
- apiFetch wrapper: credentials:'include' + X-CSRF-Token on mutations.
- Login form; App gates on /api/auth/me and only shows setup to admins; logout.
- Wizard token field removed (auth is the session cookie).
Deploy:
- deploy/nginx.conf: prod reverse proxy, SPA + /api same-origin, TLS, so the
Secure cookies work. Dev stays same-origin via the Vite proxy.
Verified (curl + browser): wrong pass -> 401; login sets cookies; me -> admin;
assign without CSRF -> 403, with -> 201; no cookie -> 401; session persists
across reload. wiki/local-jwt-auth updated.
Make the device-adapter pattern selectable so the admin chooses hardware at
install — per lane, from a catalog of supported drivers. Adding a device =
registering one more driver; no business-logic change.
packages/devices:
- interfaces.ts: AccessControlDevice / ReaderDevice / CameraDevice / PrinterDevice
(adds CameraDevice for entry/exit snapshot-on-event; access relay stays
intent-only per "a barrier is not a door").
- registry.ts: driver catalog with per-driver config fields + factory, config
validation, and a catalog payload for the setup UI.
- drivers/: stub adapters — access (zkteco, esp32-relay), reader (wiegand,
tcp-ip), camera (hikvision, dahua). Real vendor protocols TBD.
packages/db:
- lane_devices + setup_state tables (migration 0001); re-export query helpers.
apps/server:
- routes/setup.ts: GET /api/setup/catalog (public schema), and admin-only
/assign, /state, /complete with registry validation before persisting.
- extract auth.ts (requireJwtSecret, requireRole, JWT type aug).
apps/web:
- SetupWizard scaffold + api client: pick a driver per category for a lane,
render its config fields.
wiki: device-registry + first-run-setup concept pages; cross-link from
device-adapter-pattern; index + log updated.
Verified: full turbo build (5/5); catalog lists all drivers; admin assign
persists; missing-config and no-token requests are rejected.
Security review flagged a hardcoded JWT secret fallback. A booth machine
started without JWT_SECRET would have signed tokens with a publicly-known
default, letting anyone forge an admin token — defeating the local-auth
anti-fraud model.
- requireJwtSecret() refuses to start on a missing, <32-char, or placeholder
secret (no insecure default).
- Add sign.expiresIn: 8h so minted tokens expire (bound to a shift).
- Add apps/server/.env.example documenting JWT_SECRET + how to generate it.
Verified: refuses with no secret and with the old placeholder; boots and
serves /health with a valid `openssl rand -hex 32` secret.
Turborepo (pnpm workspaces) with all dependencies pinned to latest
mutually-compatible versions: turbo 2.9, TypeScript 6, Fastify 5,
React 19, Vite 8, better-sqlite3 12 + Drizzle ORM 0.45.
Layout:
- apps/server Fastify backend (local JWT auth + role guard, /health)
- apps/web React 19 + Vite 8 operator SPA
- packages/db Drizzle schema on SQLite/WAL; append-only events + users
- packages/devices reader/printer/relay adapter interfaces (intent-only relay)
- packages/shared shared domain types
Architecture constraints from the design wiki are encoded in the scaffold:
append-only hash-chained + signed event log, device-agnostic adapters,
"a barrier is not a door" (relay expresses intent only), fully-local
offline-first auth.
wiki/ is an LLM-maintained Obsidian knowledge base (28 pages) ingested
from the architecture & design notes, with its own maintenance schema.
Verified: pnpm install, full turbo build (5/5), server boots and serves
/health, drizzle-kit generates the initial migration.
