feat(dev): add seed targets for the non-Docker dev server#526jonathanchu wants to merge 2 commits into
Conversation
The seed targets all run `docker compose exec cq-server`, so they only reach the container's database. `make dev-api` runs against server/backend/dev.db instead, and seed-users.py defaults `--db` to the container path `/data/cq.db`, so there was no supported way to create a user for the dev-api workflow -- users seeded with `make seed-users` simply do not exist there. seed-kus.py already points at `make dev-api` in its health-check failure message; only the entry points were missing. Add dev-seed-users, dev-seed-kus, and dev-seed-all. dev-seed-users runs `alembic upgrade head` first, so it creates and migrates dev.db on its own and does not require the server to be running; dev-seed-kus talks to the running API over HTTP, as its compose counterpart does. Hoist the port and database path into DEV_DB and DEV_API_PORT so dev-api and the seed targets cannot drift apart, and list the local workflow in `make help`, which previously documented neither dev-api nor dev-ui. The new targets guard USER via `$(origin USER)` rather than `ifndef`: USER is exported by every POSIX shell, so `ifndef USER` never fires and the target would silently use the current OS username.

In `@Makefile`:
- Line 152: Quote the DEV_DB expansion in both CQ_DB_PATH shell assignments
within the Makefile recipes, changing each assignment to preserve paths
containing spaces while leaving the other environment assignments unchanged.
- Line 152: Update the dev-api recipe’s environment invocation to unset
CQ_DATABASE_URL so CQ_DB_PATH=$(DEV_DB) is selected; apply the same unset to the
Alembic command if it uses the shared configuration. Preserve the existing local
development settings and commands.
- Around line 3-9: Update the dev-ui target and the Vite configuration so the
frontend proxy target uses the shared DEV_API_PORT value rather than a hardcoded
port. Ensure overridden DEV_API_PORT values are exported or otherwise passed
through to Vite while preserving the existing default behavior.
- Around line 160-168: Update both affected targets after the USER origin
validation to reject empty or whitespace-only command-line values by checking
the stripped USER value and emitting the existing required-USER error. Preserve
the command-line-origin requirement and apply the same validation consistently
to both targets.
- Around line 185-187: Update the dev-seed-all target dependencies so
dev-seed-users completes before dev-seed-kus starts, preserving sequential
execution even when make -j is used; keep the existing target names and seed
commands unchanged.
- Line 170: Update seed-users.py and seed-kus.py to obtain the password through
protected input rather than a command-line argument, preserving the existing
username and database behavior. Modify every Make recipe that handles PASS,
including seed-all, to suppress command echoing and remove PASS from the invoked
command arguments.

Do not pass PASS through command-line arguments.
The seed recipes expose PASS in echoed Make commands and process arguments. Shell expansion can also change the password before the script receives it. Update server/scripts/seed-users.py and server/scripts/seed-kus.py to read the password from protected input. Suppress echoing for every recipe that handles PASS, including seed-all.

PASS is passed the same way by the three existing seed targets, and it's documented that way in DEVELOPMENT.md and the quickstart. Reworking seed-users.py and seed-kus.py to read from stdin would change the interface for the Docker path too, which feels like a decision the maintainer should make here.
Happy to do it as a follow-up, I just want to defer to your call here! 😺

@jonathanchu, agreed. This change affects both the local and Docker seed workflows. It also changes documented command interfaces.
The password exposure concern remains valid, but this PR does not need to make that cross-workflow interface decision. A follow-up should define the protected-input interface and update the scripts, Make targets, DEVELOPMENT.md, and the quickstart together.
Would you like me to open a GitHub issue for that follow-up?

Review follow-ups on the dev-* workflow: - dev-seed-all used prerequisites, so `make -j` could start dev-seed-kus before dev-seed-users had created the account. Serialise it with $(MAKE) recipe lines, matching the existing seed-all target. - CQ_DATABASE_URL outranks CQ_DB_PATH, so an inherited value made dev-api and the Alembic upgrade ignore DEV_DB and act on an unrelated database. Clear it in both recipes; the resolver treats an empty value as unset. - The USER/PASS guards accepted empty values passed on the command line. Reject them with $(strip). - DEV_API_PORT did not reach Vite, whose proxy target was hardcoded to 8742, so overriding the port disconnected the UI from the API. Pass it through in dev-ui and read it in vite.config.ts, defaulting to 8742. - Quote $(DEV_DB) so a path containing spaces survives the shell.

What changed and why
seed-users,seed-kus, andseed-allall rundocker compose exec cq-server, so they only reach the container's database.make dev-apiruns againstserver/backend/dev.dbinstead, andseed-users.pydefaults--dbto the container path/data/cq.db— so there is no supported way to create a user for thedev-apiworkflow. A user seeded withmake seed-usersdoes not exist in the dev database, and the failure surfaces at the dashboard login as a credentials problem.The scripts already anticipate this workflow:
seed-kus.py's health check tells you to runmake dev-api. Only the Makefile entry points were missing.This adds:
dev-seed-usersalembic upgrade headfirst, so it creates and migratesdev.dbon its own — the server does not need to be runningdev-seed-kusdev-seed-allTwo supporting changes:
DEV_DBandDEV_API_PORThoist the database path and port sodev-apiand the seed targets cannot drift apart.DEV_API_PORThas to match the proxy target inserver/frontend/vite.config.ts, so the comment says so.make helpgains a "Local development (outside Docker)" section. It previously documented neitherdev-apinordev-ui, which made the whole non-Docker path undiscoverable from the default goal.How to test
From a clean checkout, with no server running:
Then log in at
make dev-uiwithdemo/demo123. I ran exactly this: the cold path creates the database and user without the server running, anddev-seed-kusloads all 17 units and leaves 3 pending for the review queue.Note on the USER guard
The new targets guard
USERwith$(origin USER)rather thanifndef.USERis exported by every POSIX shell, soifndef USERnever fires:The existing
seed-users/seed-kus/seed-alltargets have this same latent issue — they silently seed a user named after whoever ran the command instead of erroring. I have not touched them here to keep this change scoped, but I'm happy to fix them in a follow-up (or in this PR if you'd prefer).Summary by CodeRabbit
