Component-Based Laravel Infrastructure Project Progress Summary

Technical Environment

• Laravel 10
• PostgreSQL 12 (dev) / 16 (prod)
• PHP 8.1
• Ubuntu 22.04 (dev) / Alma Linux (prod)

Database Schema Implementation

1. Created and using schemas:

   • public: Laravel system tables
   • auth: Role/permission tables
   • org: Organization structure tables

2. Key Tables Created:

- public.users
- auth.roles
- auth.permissions
- auth.role_permissions
- org.tbl_stores
- org.tbl_user_access_roles (with constraint requiring store_id OR group_id)

Current Working State

1. API endpoints functional with versioning and authentication
2. Admin interface operating with:
   • User CRUD complete
   • Role CRUD complete
   • Permission CRUD complete
   • Role-to-user assignments partially working (needs store/group handling)

Specific Implementation Details

1. Models contain explicit schema references:

protected $table = 'auth.roles';
protected $connection = 'pgsql';

2. Validation includes explicit schema references:

Rule::unique('pgsql.auth.roles', 'code')

3. Current challenge: User-role assignments need to handle the constraint:

CONSTRAINT chk_store_group_ids CHECK (store_id IS NOT NULL OR group_id IS NOT NULL)

Authentication & Authorization Implementation Progress

Completed Components

1. Set up basic API structure with versioning
2. Implemented domain-specific "Hello World" endpoints for:
   • Loyalty
   • Management Reporting
   • Cafe Menu Products
   • Trading Desk

Admin Interface Development

1. Created Admin component separate from API component

2. Implemented User Management:

   • CRUD operations
   • Integration with auth schema
   • Role assignment interface (partially complete)

3. Implemented Role Management:

   • CRUD operations
   • Proper schema handling
   • Validation with explicit schema references

4. Implemented Permission Management:

   • Basic CRUD operations
   • Schema-aware validation
   • Views and controllers established

Key Technical Decisions & Solutions

1. Explicit schema handling in PostgreSQL
2. Proper validation rules for cross-schema operations
3. Separation of web admin interface from API components

Current Challenges

1. Role assignments need to handle:
   • Store/group associations
   • System-wide roles without store/group requirement
   • UI updates for store/group selection

Next Steps

1. Modify user-role assignments to handle store/group relationships
2. Update database constraints for system-wide roles
3. Enhance role assignment interface to include store/group selection
4. Implement permission assignment to roles
5. Set up role-based access control for API endpoints
