tajniak81andClaude Opus 5 a3f69fa5ef Home chargers: your own wallbox as a record, imported the way a car is
The Home chargers tab has been showing a hardcoded "Home charger · 11 kW · NACS"
since it was drawn, and the control card asked for a serial as free text — a
number printed on a box hanging in a garage, typed in by hand while the connected
account already knew it. The garage solved the same problem for cars a while ago,
so this is that solution aimed at the wall: pick the charger off a service you
have connected, press Import, and it becomes a record of yours.

A charger is a record rather than a live listing because it has to outlive the
account it came from. Disconnect Anker and the wallbox is still on the wall; the
integration is how the charger was found, not what it is. Hence home_chargers,
owned by a person and not related to any car — it charges whichever car is
plugged into it, and it outlives all of them — and hence no sharing: a charger is
one household's business in a way a car shared with a partner is not.

The provider layer is vehicleproviders.go's shape on purpose, down to the soft
gate: a listing answers 200 with an empty list and the sentence that says what to
do about a closed gate, a write answers 400, because there the caller asked for
something that did not happen. Anker and Greencell are two adapters over plugins
that already exist, so the next charger service is an adapter appended to
chargerSources() and nothing else. What is deliberately absent is the car
import's checkbox panel: a charger is a name, a serial and the hardware behind
it, all of which the list already carries, so there is nothing to choose and the
whole screen is pick one, press Import.

Only the name is editable afterwards. The rest describes hardware and came from
the service, and the provider link is written by the import endpoint alone, so
renaming a charger cannot quietly orphan it from the account it tracks. Deleting
one says as much in its confirmation: the charger is untouched, and importing it
again brings the record straight back.

The Anker gate moved into ankerGate() beside greencellGate(), because the same
four-case switch was about to exist in a third place. Behaviour is unchanged —
the same sentences, and the probe still skips the personal opt-in, since checking
credentials is what you do before switching the integration on.

The phone app still has the old tab; parity there is a separate change.

# DriverVault — API Server
The central API Server for the DriverVault project. Written in Go (standard
library only, module `drivervault/apiserver`). It is the **single gateway**
between all clients (web app, phone app, Home Assistant plugin, ESP32 device)
and the PocketBase database — **clients never talk to PocketBase directly**. The
API Server authenticates to PocketBase as a superuser and all collection access
rules are left null, so data is only reachable through this server.
It also serves the **superadmin web panel** at the server root (`/`).

## Auth & access control
Authentication is **PocketBase's own**. `POST /api/auth/login` is proxied to the
PocketBase users collection and the client keeps the token PocketBase minted;
this server does not issue its own JWT. Every protected request re-resolves that
token against PocketBase (`auth-refresh`), so a role change or a deletion takes
effect **immediately** rather than lingering until a token expires.
```
POST /api/auth/login { "email": "...", "password": "..." } -> PocketBase { token, record }
GET /api/auth/me (Authorization: <token>) -> { id, email, name, role }
GET /api/identity (Authorization: <token>) -> + organization
```
Both `Authorization: Bearer <token>` and a raw `Authorization: <token>` are
accepted (PocketBase's own SDKs send the latter).
### Roles
`users.role` is `user` | `admin` | `superadmin` (empty is treated as `user`).
| Role | Can |
|---|---|
| **user** | their own cars, service records, parts, profile |
| **admin** | the above, plus manage users **within their own organization** |
| **superadmin** | everything, across all organizations, plus the PocketBase connection and plugins |
Guards worth knowing: an admin cannot create or edit a superadmin, cannot move
users between organizations, and nobody can change their own role or delete
their own account. An organization cannot be deleted while it still has members.
### Organizations
`organizations` is the tenant collection; `users.organization` is the
membership. A superadmin spans all organizations; an admin is scoped by the
server to their own. Users may have no organization at all.
Creating one is self-service: any user who does not already belong to an
organization may `POST /api/orgs`, and becomes that organization's **admin** and
first member in the same request (if the promotion fails the new organization is
rolled back, so it is never left with nobody able to administer it). A user who
already belongs to one is refused — membership is a single relation, so creating
a second would mean silently abandoning the first.
A superadmin is the exception: they create organizations without joining them,
since they already span every tenant.
From there an admin manages **their own** organization — rename it, or delete it
once they are its only member. Deleting it detaches and demotes them back to a
plain `user` before the record is removed, so the organization is empty when it
goes. A superadmin may rename or delete any organization, but still only once it
has no members at all.
### Per-user car ownership + sharing
Cars are not a global list. `cars.owner` marks ownership and `car_shares` grants
other users `read` or `write` access. Every car/service/part handler is gated by
`requireCarAccess`:
- **read** — view the car, its service records and parts.
- **write** — edit the car and full service/part CRUD.
- **owner only** — delete the car and manage its shares.
## Data model
| Collection | Purpose | Key fields |
|---|---|---|
| `cars` | one per car | name, make, model, year, registration, `registrationCountry`, vin, `fuelType`, `buildDate`, `firstRegistrationDate`, `currentKm`, `serviceIntervalDays` (365), `serviceIntervalKm` (15000), `technicalCheckIntervalDays` (365), `oilSpec`, `transmissionOilSpec`, `differentialOilSpec`, `brakeFluidSpec`, `coolantSpec`, `owner` |
| `service_records` | the service log | car, date, km, changed_oil, changed_engine_air_filter, changed_cabin_air_filter, notes |
| `technical_checks` | roadworthiness inspections (przegląd techniczny / MOT / TÜV) | car, date, `result` (passed \| failed), cost, station, `valid_until`, notes |
| `parts` | per-car parts catalog | car, name, part_number, category, notes |
| `fuel_entries` | refuelling log (efficiency derived on read) | car, date, km, liters, cost, `full_tank`, `missed_fill`, station, notes |
| `charging_sessions` | EV charging log, the same shape as the refuelling one (kWh/100km derived on read) | car, date, km, kwh, cost, `full_charge`, `missed_session`, location, notes |
| `maintenance_entries` | workshop visits & repairs (outside routine service) | car, date, km, type, status, workshop, parts_used, labor_cost, parts_cost, invoice_number, warranty_until, notes |
| `car_documents` | paperwork (insurance, registration, road tax, …) | car, type, title, provider, reference, issue_date, expiry_date, cost, notes |
| `reminders` | date/odometer reminders (some auto-derived) | car, title, type, due_date, due_km, repeat_days, repeat_km, done, done_at, notes |
| `car_shares` | grants another user access to a car | car, user, `permission` (read \| write) |
| `organizations` | tenants | name (unique) |
| `home_chargers` | the chargers a user owns, imported from a connected charger service | name, serial, vendor, model, site_name, power_kw, connector, `provider`, `provider_charger_id`, owner |
| `control_audit` | OCPP control-command audit trail | user, charger, action, result, timestamp |
| `users` | login + profile (built-in auth collection) | name, email, avatar, `role` (user \| admin \| superadmin), `organization`, bio, theme, locale, date_format, currency, font_size, deletion_requested_at |
Every record collection except `car_shares` / `organizations` / `control_audit`
/ `home_chargers` carries **one optional file attachment**, served only through
the API Server
(`GET /api/{records}/{id}/file`) — never a public PocketBase URL.
**Spreadsheet formulas** (from the original `Car Service.xlsx`), reproduced by
the API on read:
```
Next Service Date = service date + serviceIntervalDays (Excel: =A+365)
Next Service Km = service km + serviceIntervalKm (Excel: =B+15000)
```
These come back on each service record as `nextServiceDate` / `nextServiceKm`.

`GET /api/cars` returns the caller's owned cars plus any shared with them, each
annotated with an `access` field. The per-record list endpoints also accept a
`?car={id}` filter (e.g. `GET /api/service-records?car={id}`).
> **Gotcha:** `updateCar` rewrites **all** car columns from the payload, so a
> `PATCH /api/cars/{id}` must send the **full** car object — omitted spec fields
> get blanked. (The phone's odometer quick-edit sends the whole car for this
> reason.) The two exceptions are `owner` and the provider link (`provider`,
> `provider_vehicle_id`), which `carPayload` deliberately leaves out so an
> ordinary edit can neither reassign the car nor break its connected service.
### Vehicle providers
`internal/api/vehicleproviders.go` turns a manufacturer-service plugin into a car
you can create from your own account with that service, plus a per-car tab showing
everything the service currently knows about it. Toyota (MyToyota) is the first
provider; adding the next one means writing a `vehicleSource` adapter and
appending it to `vehicleSources()` — no new endpoints and no Web App changes.
Two properties shape the design:
- **Credentials are always the caller's.** Every provider call resolves through
the same global → org → user cascade as the integration settings, so a car
shared with someone else shows them provider data only when that vehicle is on
*their* manufacturer account. The owner's credentials are never borrowed.
- **Upstream shapes are not modelled.** These are unofficial APIs. Rather than
hard-coding field paths, the layer searches payloads by key name for the handful
of readings worth promoting (odometer, fuel, battery, range) and flattens the
rest to dotted key/value pairs, shipping the raw payload alongside. A renamed
field costs one blank value instead of a broken page.
`POST .../import` takes `{vehicleId, name?, include?}`, where `include` selects
which groups to pull (`identity`, `fuelType`, `dates`, `odometer`). Omitting it
means "everything available". `POST /api/cars/{id}/provider/sync` takes the same
selection, and only ever moves the odometer forward — a reading that appears to go
backwards is a stale provider, not a car driven in reverse.
## The panel (`/`)
A Vue 3 + Tailwind app (source in `panel/`, built into `internal/api/dist` and
embedded at compile time). It is the superadmin console:
- **Overview** — live health of the API Server, PocketBase and the Web App.
- **Users / Organizations** — full management, scoped to the caller's role.
- **PocketBase** — retarget the database connection at runtime; test before
saving. Applied immediately **and** persisted to `.env`, so it survives a
restart. This is the escape hatch when the configured PocketBase is wrong or
unreachable — the settings endpoints deliberately do **not** require a working
service account.
- **Plugins** — enable/disable/configure integrations, run health checks,
register external plugins.
- **API** — the endpoint reference.
Log in with any DriverVault account; the sections you see depend on your role.
```powershell
cd panel
npm install
npm run dev # localhost:5174, proxies /api to localhost:8080
npm run build # -> ../internal/api/dist (then rebuild the Go binary)
```
Editing panel source alone does nothing to the served panel — run `npm run build`
and then rebuild the Go binary, since `dist` is embedded.
## Plugins
An extension system for integrating third-party services, managed by a
superadmin. Two kinds share one contract: **built-in** (Go, compiled in) and
**external** (any HTTP service, registered at runtime, **no rebuild**). Enable
state and global config persist to PocketBase, in the `app_settings` singleton —
the same place the per-org and per-user layers of the cascade live.
See **[`internal/plugins/README.md`](internal/plugins/README.md)** for the full
guide. Four built-in connectors ship today — **Toyota Connected** (`toyota`,
read-only MyToyota vehicle data), the **Anker Solix** V1 EV charger
(`anker-solix`), the **Greencell** HabuDen EV charger (`greencell`) and
**Apprise** (`apprise`, notifications) — and any number of external HTTP plugins
can be registered at runtime with no rebuild.
### Integrations & charging control
Beyond the superadmin plugin registry, the built-in connectors are exposed
per-user through `/api/integrations/*` under a **superadmin → org admin → user**
cascade (each layer supplies defaults the next can override). For Anker Solix
chargers the server additionally runs an **OCPP 1.6J Central System**
(`internal/ocpp`): when the owner sets a control mode of own/proxy, the charger
dials back in at `GET /ocpp/{serial}` (authenticated with OCPP Basic auth using a
per-charger control token, not a bearer token) and the owner can start/stop and
set charge limits, with every command rate-limited and written to a
`control_audit` trail.
**Greencell** takes the other route. The HabuDen wallbox has no cloud API: it is
commissioned over Bluetooth in the Greencell GC app, pointed at an MQTT broker
the owner runs, and from then on publishes its telemetry there. The connector is
therefore an MQTT client (`internal/mqtt`, hand-rolled like the WebSocket layer,
since the server takes no dependencies) that joins the same broker and reads
`/greencell/evse/{sn}/…` — the topics Home Assistant's own `greencell`
integration speaks, which is the only published description of the protocol. It
is read-only: the device accepts START/STOP/SET_CURRENT in EXECUTE mode, but the
topic those go to is documented nowhere, and Home Assistant ships without control
for the same reason. An operator who has identified their own command topic can
set `commandTopic`, which is used only to send `QUERY` — the one command a
READ-mode device also honours — so a read does not have to wait out the
charger's own publish cadence.
## Configuration
Copy `.env.example` to `.env` and fill in. Summary:
| Variable | Default | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| `API_ADDR` | `:8080` | listen address (bare port accepted) |
| `POCKETBASE_URL` | `http://10.2.1.10:8027` | PocketBase base URL |
| `POCKETBASE_ADMIN_EMAIL` / `_PASSWORD` | — | superuser service account |
| `CORS_ALLOW_ORIGINS` | `*` | comma-separated browser origins |
| `WEBAPP_URL` | `http://localhost:8090` | probed by `/api/status` |
| `AUTH_USERS_COLLECTION` | `users` | PocketBase auth collection |
| `OCPP_REQUIRE_TLS` | `true` | reject chargers that did not connect over TLS |
| `OCPP_PUBLIC_URL` | — | canonical `ws(s)://` base to point chargers at |
| `PB_BOOTSTRAP` | `true` | run the on-boot schema create/reconcile (leave on across upgrades) |
| `DRIVERVAULT_SUPERADMIN_EMAIL` / `_PASSWORD` / `_NAME` | — / — / `Administrator` | first `superadmin`, created on boot when absent |
`PB_URL`, `PB_ADMIN_EMAIL`, `PB_ADMIN_PASSWORD`, `PORT` and `CORS_ORIGINS` are
still honoured for older deployments; the modern names win when both are set.
The server keeps **no state on disk**: plugin settings, like everything else it
owns, live in PocketBase. A `.env` in the working directory is read at startup as
a local-development convenience, and the panel writes back to it when a
superadmin retargets PocketBase or the Web App — but in Docker there is no volume
behind it, so those two screens apply for the life of the container only. Set the
environment variables to change them permanently; see [`Dockerfile`](Dockerfile)
and [`../Docker`](../Docker).
`CORS_ALLOW_ORIGINS` only matters for **browser** clients (the web app). Native
mobile apps are not subject to CORS.
The service account is **optional at startup**: without it the server still runs
and a superadmin can log in and configure it from the panel, while management
endpoints return 503.
## Scripts (`scripts/`)
```powershell
node scripts/setup-pocketbase.mjs # create/reconcile collections (idempotent)
node scripts/create-user.mjs <email> <pw> "Name" # create an app login
node scripts/set-role.mjs <email> user|admin|superadmin
node scripts/backfill-car-owners.mjs # one-off: assign owner to legacy cars
python scripts/seed_from_excel.py "C:/Users/jania/Desktop/Car Service.xlsx"
```
The Node scripts read `POCKETBASE_URL` / `POCKETBASE_ADMIN_EMAIL` /
`POCKETBASE_ADMIN_PASSWORD` (or the legacy `PB_*` names) from the environment.
> **PocketBase note:** collections created by the setup script do **not** get
> automatic `created`/`updated` autodate fields in this PocketBase version —
> sorting on `created` fails unless an explicit `F.autodate(...)` is added. When
> adding a new car spec field, extend `DESIRED.cars` in `setup-pocketbase.mjs`,
> add it to `models.Car` + the record mapping in `records.go`, then rebuild.
> **Startup bootstrap:** the server also runs this same create/reconcile on boot
> (`internal/bootstrap`, a Go mirror of `setup-pocketbase.mjs`) whenever a service
> account is configured, so the Docker prod stack needs no manual setup step. It
> is idempotent and gated by `PB_BOOTSTRAP` (default `true`; set to `false` to
> skip). With `DRIVERVAULT_SUPERADMIN_EMAIL` + `DRIVERVAULT_SUPERADMIN_PASSWORD`
> set it also creates the first `superadmin` user when absent. **Keep the two
> schemas in sync:** a change to `DESIRED` in the script must be mirrored in
> `internal/bootstrap/schema.go` (guarded by `TestSchemaConsistency`).
## First-time setup
1. **Create the PocketBase collections** (idempotent — safe to re-run on an
existing deployment; it adds `organizations`, `users.organization`, and grows
`users.role` to include `superadmin`):
```powershell
$env:POCKETBASE_URL="http://10.2.1.10:8027"
$env:POCKETBASE_ADMIN_EMAIL="you@example.com"
$env:POCKETBASE_ADMIN_PASSWORD="secret"
node scripts/setup-pocketbase.mjs
```
2. **Mint the first superadmin.** The panel's management screens need one, and
only a superadmin can promote another — so the first has to come from the
script:
```powershell
node scripts/create-user.mjs admin@example.com "a-long-password" "Admin"
node scripts/set-role.mjs admin@example.com superadmin
```
3. **Run the server** — `go run ./cmd/server`, or build and run the binary.
4. **Open the panel** at `http://localhost:8080/` and sign in.
5. **(Optional) Seed from the spreadsheet** with the server running (see scripts).
## Build & run
```powershell
go build -o bin/api-server.exe ./cmd/server
```
The deployment runs the **prebuilt binary** `bin/api-server.exe` (not `go run`),
started detached so it survives the shell:
```powershell
Start-Process -FilePath ".\bin\api-server.exe" -WorkingDirectory "." `
-WindowStyle Hidden -RedirectStandardOutput api-server.out.log `
-RedirectStandardError api-server.err.log
```
Go's `log` package writes to **stderr**, so check `api-server.err.log` for
request logs and errors. After editing any Go source, rebuild and restart the
process — editing source alone does nothing until the binary is rebuilt.
## Migrating from the JWT build
Earlier builds minted their own HS256 JWT and tracked a `sessions` collection
for "active devices" / remote logout. That is gone — the server now relays
PocketBase tokens. Consequences:
- **`AUTH_SECRET` is obsolete** and ignored.
- **Login returns PocketBase's envelope** — `{token, record}`, not `{token, user}`.
- **`GET|DELETE /api/sessions*` are gone.** PocketBase tokens are stateless, so
there is nothing to revoke per-device. To lock every device out of an account,
change its password: PocketBase rotates the user's token key, which
invalidates every token already issued.
- **User management moved** from `/api/admin/users*` to `/api/users*`, and the
separate password-reset endpoint folded into `PATCH /api/users/{id}`
(`{"password": "..."}`). Responses are enveloped: `{users}` / `{user}`.
- **Existing tokens are invalid** — every client must log in once more.
- The `sessions` collection is left in PocketBase rather than dropped; delete it
by hand if you want it gone.
The Web App and Phone App in this repo are already updated for all of the above.
