# Implementation Summary - Dashboard Improvements ## Overview This document summarizes all improvements and features implemented for the self-hostable SaaS platform dashboard. ## Completed Tasks ### 1. Fixed Dashboard Mock Data ✅ **Problem**: Dashboard was showing hardcoded statistics and activity data **Solution**: - Modified `/services/api/src/index.ts` to add real database query endpoints: - `GET /dashboard/stats` - Returns real counts from `__sys_users`, `__sys_applications`, `__sys_deployments`, `__sys_api_keys` - `GET /dashboard/activity` - Returns recent audit log entries with user information - Updated `DashboardStats.tsx` to remove hardcoded change percentages - Updated `Dashboard.tsx` to fetch and display real activity data with time-ago formatting **Impact**: Dashboard now shows accurate, real-time data from the database --- ### 2. Implemented User Management ✅ **Problem**: No way to create new users through the dashboard UI **Solution**: - Created `/dashboard/src/pages/CreateUser.tsx` with full user creation form - Features: - Email validation with regex - Password strength checks (minimum 8 characters) - Password confirmation matching - Optional email verification toggle - First name and last name fields - Added route `/users/create` to `App.tsx` - Backend already supported user creation with bcrypt password hashing **Impact**: Administrators can now create new user accounts directly from the dashboard --- ### 3. Removed Organizations (Single-Tenant Refactor) ✅ **Problem**: Multi-tenant organization structure not needed - one stack = one organization **Solution**: **Database Changes** (`/database/init/02-remove-organizations.sql`): - Dropped `organizations` and `organization_members` tables - Removed `organization_id` foreign keys from: - `__sys_applications` - `__sys_api_keys` - `__sys_audit_logs` **Backend Changes**: - `/services/api/src/index.ts`: Removed organization routes, replaced Organizations stat with API Keys - `/services/api/src/routes/applications.ts`: Removed organization membership checks, added pagination - `/services/api/src/routes/apiKeys.ts`: Completely rewritten for single-tenant architecture - `/services/api/src/routes/users.ts`: Changed response format to `{data, total, page, limit}` **Frontend Changes**: - `/dashboard/src/pages/Applications.tsx`: Removed organization selection dropdown - `/dashboard/src/services/api.ts`: Removed all organization-related methods - `/dashboard/src/components/DashboardStats.tsx`: Replaced Organizations card with API Keys - `/dashboard/src/components/Layout.tsx`: Removed Organizations from navigation menu - `/dashboard/src/App.tsx`: Removed Organizations route **Impact**: Simplified architecture suitable for single-tenant deployments --- ### 4. Fixed Deprecation Warnings ✅ **Problem**: CSS import order warnings during build **Solution**: - Modified `/dashboard/src/styles/globals.css` - Moved `@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/...')` before `@tailwind` directives - Complies with CSS specification requiring imports before other statements **Impact**: Clean build output without warnings --- ### 5. Renamed System Tables with __sys_ Prefix ✅ **Problem**: Need to distinguish platform tables from user-created tables **Solution**: **Database Migration** (`/database/init/03-rename-system-tables.sql`): - Renamed 6 core tables with `__sys_` prefix: - `users` → `__sys_users` - `sessions` → `__sys_sessions` - `api_keys` → `__sys_api_keys` - `applications` → `__sys_applications` - `deployments` → `__sys_deployments` - `audit_logs` → `__sys_audit_logs` - Updated all foreign keys, indexes, and triggers **Backend Updates**: - Used sed to replace table references in all `/services/api/src` and `/services/auth/src` files - Modified `/services/api/src/routes/database.ts`: - Changed `GET /tables` to return `{systemTables, userTables, totalTables}` - Added `isSystemTable` flag based on `__sys_` prefix **Frontend Updates**: - Modified `/dashboard/src/pages/Database.tsx`: - Added `DatabaseTablesResponse` interface - Split display into "System Tables (Protected)" and "User Tables" sections - Added 4 stats cards: Total Tables, System Tables, User Tables, Total Rows **Impact**: Clear separation between platform and user data with visual distinction in UI --- ### 6. Built Comprehensive Database Editor Interface ✅ **Problem**: No way to view, edit, or manage database tables and data **Solution**: **New API Service Methods** (`/dashboard/src/services/api.ts`): - `getTableData(tableName, page, limit)` - Fetch paginated table data - `updateTableRow(tableName, rowId, data)` - Update individual rows - `deleteTableRow(tableName, rowId)` - Delete rows - `createTable(tableName, columns)` - Create new tables - `executeQuery(query)` - Execute SQL queries with safety restrictions - `exportTable(tableName, format)` - Export tables as JSON or CSV **New Components**: 1. **TableDataModal** (`/dashboard/src/components/TableDataModal.tsx`): - View table data with pagination (50 rows per page) - Edit rows inline (disabled for system tables) - Delete rows (disabled for system tables) - Displays schema information (column names and types) - Protected columns (id, created_at, updated_at) are read-only - Shows "Protected" badge for system tables 2. **CreateTableModal** (`/dashboard/src/components/CreateTableModal.tsx`): - Create new tables with custom columns - 12 data types: TEXT, VARCHAR, INTEGER, BIGINT, BOOLEAN, TIMESTAMP, JSONB, UUID, etc. - Set constraints: NOT NULL, UNIQUE, PRIMARY KEY - Define default values - Add/remove columns dynamically - Full validation (table name, column names, prevent `__sys_` prefix) - Auto-adds id, created_at, updated_at columns **Enhanced Database Page** (`/dashboard/src/pages/Database.tsx`): Features: - **View Table Data**: Click eye icon to open modal with editable table data - **Export Functionality**: Download buttons for JSON and CSV formats per table - **Create Table Button**: Opens wizard to create new user tables - **SQL Query Interface**: - Execute SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE queries - Real-time result display with JSON formatting - Shows row count and command type - Error handling with user-friendly messages - Clear button to reset query and results **Safety Features**: - System tables (`__sys_*`) protected from modifications - SQL injection prevention via parameterized queries - Dangerous operations (DROP, TRUNCATE, ALTER) blocked - System table queries blocked in custom SQL interface - Table name validation (alphanumeric + underscores only) **Backend Enhancements** (`/services/api/src/routes/database.ts`): - `POST /tables` - Create new user tables with validation - `PUT /tables/:tableName/rows/:rowId` - Update rows (blocks system tables) - `DELETE /tables/:tableName/rows/:rowId` - Delete rows (blocks system tables) - `POST /query` - Execute SQL with safety restrictions - `GET /tables/:tableName/export` - Export as CSV or JSON All operations are audited and logged to `__sys_audit_logs`. **Impact**: Full-featured database management similar to PocketBase, with comprehensive protection for system tables --- ### 7. Enhanced API Keys with Scope-Based Permissions ✅ **Problem**: Simple permission system without granular control over resources and actions **Solution**: **New Permission Structure**: Scope-based model with 5 resources and 4 actions per resource: Resources: - `users` - User accounts and profiles - `applications` - Application configurations - `deployments` - Application deployments - `database` - Database tables and queries - `api_keys` - API key management (read-only) Actions per Resource: - `create` - Create new resources - `read` - View and list resources - `update` - Modify existing resources - `delete` - Remove resources Example permission object: ```json { "users": { "create": true, "read": true, "update": false, "delete": false }, "applications": { "create": false, "read": true, "update": false, "delete": false } } ``` **New Components**: 1. **ScopePermissions** (`/dashboard/src/components/ScopePermissions.tsx`): - Interactive permission matrix UI - Visual toggle buttons for each resource/action combination - Quick actions: "Read Only", "Enable All", "Disable All" per resource - Real-time permission summary display - Highlights enabled resources with colored borders - Shows all selected permissions in a summary section **Updated API Keys Page** (`/dashboard/src/pages/ApiKeys.tsx`): - Replaced simple permission checkboxes with comprehensive scope selector - Enhanced modal with better layout and UX - Added expiration dropdown (Never, 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, 1 year) - Shows enabled scopes as badges in table view - Better visual feedback for API key creation - Security warnings when displaying new API key **Backend Middleware** (`/services/api/src/middleware/apiKeyAuth.ts`): - `authenticateApiKey()` - Validates API key from Authorization header - `requireScope(resource, action)` - Checks if API key has required permission - `requireAnyScope(...scopes)` - OR logic for multiple permissions - Automatic last_used_at timestamp updates - Detailed logging of permission checks **Public API Routes** (`/services/api/src/routes/publicApi.ts`): - New `/v1` prefix for all API key-authenticated endpoints - Separate from dashboard JWT routes - Scope enforcement on all endpoints: - `GET /v1/users` - requires `users:read` - `GET /v1/applications` - requires `applications:read` - `GET /v1/deployments` - requires `deployments:read` - `GET /v1/database/tables` - requires `database:read` - `POST /v1/database/query` - requires `database:read` (SELECT only) - `GET /v1/api-keys` - requires `api_keys:read` **API Documentation** (`/API_KEYS.md`): - Comprehensive guide for using API keys - Examples for all endpoints with curl commands - Permission structure explanation - Best practices and security considerations - Use case examples (Analytics Dashboard, Mobile App, CI/CD Pipeline) - Error response documentation **Impact**: Enterprise-grade API key management with granular permissions suitable for various integration scenarios --- ## Architecture Overview ### Technology Stack **Frontend**: -
