dnsmanager-webclient/TODO.md

Code structure

• split App.Zone to improve compilation times
• split the Bulma module in two: the actual Bulma-related code and the general style of the website
• modules should have specific API
• maybe have a module with the entire state and a single function handling all state modifications on received message

Features

• display a message when the email isn't provided (happens when the account was migrated from dnsmanager v1)
• zone-wise indications to help people configure their zone for specific uses (web, mail)
• explanations and static content in general should be written using some kind of templates, not directly in Halogen
• admin interface: enable administrators to ask for users' info and show zones
• admin interface: perform a few more administrative operations (TBD)

Tests

• zone-wise tests, such as verifying SPF mechanisms point to available records
• verify the length of received messages in App.Message.IPC

Display

• user interface: display the email address
• somewhat better looking welcome page
• somewhat better looking explanation pages
• hide logs by default
• show a big button on disconnection
• maybe notifications should disappear after a few seconds
• admin interface: basically just rewrite the whole thing, it's a mess

General note

The code should be reviewed and a decent documentation should be provided.

Right now, the code is still in a somewhat early stage and multiple refactoring should take place. For example, modules have a very generic API; they can provide or receive messages from (respectively to) authd or dnsmanagerd. Instead, modules should have a more specific API and not deal with message encoding at all. Furthermore, maybe the state of the entire application should be stored in a single module, with a single function handling all state modifications when a message is received, enabling a simpler data management.

TODO in authd and dnsmanagerd

• disconnect users when they didn't ask for anything in several minutes
• MIGRATION-related: remove migrated accounts with no connection in over 6 months
