Every account gets a personal posixGroup at creation (its primary GID
holder) but there was no way to manage its memberUid list -- add
add/remove endpoints and a profile-page UI (admin-only), reusing the
userSelect widget already built for the manager field.
Bumps to v1.1.9.

- Edit form's Mobile Phone field was effectively required (stray validate
attribute) -- removed.
- Service account profiles always showed the literal filler name "Service
Account" -- hidden now, since it's not meaningful. Required computing
isServiceAccount in User.get(), not just listDetail().
- Fresh service accounts could look uncategorized (missing from the
Service Accounts tab, wrong isServiceAccount) for up to 5 minutes after
creation, due to a cache-staleness race in the create route -- the user
gets cached via User.get() before the route marks it as a service
account. Cleared and re-fetched after marking.
- memberOf came back as a bare string instead of a one-element array for
users in exactly one group, causing client-side permission checks to
iterate character-by-character and incorrectly deny access -- normalized
alongside the existing manager normalization.
- Added editable group membership on the profile page ("My groups"),
admin-only, using the existing per-group member endpoints.
Bumps to v1.1.8.

Removes the LDAP bind-only service account type in favor of a single
Unix/POSIX account model, surfaced in a new Users > Service Accounts tab.
Adds a multi-valued `manager` field to every account (defaults to the
creator, editable, and grants edit rights on the accounts a person manages
without needing app_sso_admin). homeDirectory and loginShell are now
editable from the profile edit form.
Bumps to v1.1.7.

routes/oauth.js has its own pageLocals object (distinct from
routes/index.js's values and routes/docs.js's own copy) used by
oauth_authorize.ejs/oauth_logout.ejs -- missed in the white-label
change since a grep alias in this environment silently treats this
particular file as binary and skips it. Caught by CI (oauth.test.js),
not local testing. Added logo: conf.logo to match the other two
copies of this locals object.
conf.name was already plumbed into routes/index.js's values object,
but never actually rendered anywhere -- <title>, the navbar brand,
and the favicon were all still hardcoded "SSO - Theta 42"/"SSO
Manager". Now render <%- name %>/<%- logo %> in top.ejs; new
conf.logo key (default: the existing theta42.svg) drives the navbar
image and favicon.
Also fixes a pre-existing broken favicon: top.ejs referenced
/static/favicon.svg, which was never actually served from public/ --
only public/img/theta42.svg existed. The favicon now uses that same
file via conf.logo instead of a nonexistent path.
Footer copyright/logo/GitHub links are left as-is (open-source
attribution, not deployment branding).
GitHub Releases already carried real changelog notes per tag, but
those require internet access to view -- exactly what the /docs
route exists to avoid. CHANGELOG.md is a committed, Keep-a-Changelog
style file (backfilled from the v1.1.0/v1.1.1/v1.1.2 release notes),
linked from README and served at /docs/changelog alongside the rest
of the project's docs.
- Removed a dead IE<9-only html5shim script tag pointing at a domain
that no longer resolves.
- New GET /docs (index) and /docs/:slug routes render this project's
own README, DEPLOYMENT, API.md, docs/*.md, and directory_spec.md
server-side via marked -- so the documentation is readable from the
running app with no route to GitHub Pages, where it otherwise only
lives. Public, no auth, rate-limited (middleware/rate_limit.js) like
the other public routes.
- .dockerignore/Dockerfile.openldap updated to copy DEPLOYMENT.md,
API.md, directory_spec.md, and docs/ into the image, mirroring the
existing tos.md -> /tos.md convention.
tos.md was baked into the repo and read once at startup, so changing
the terms required a code change and deploy. It's now a Redis-backed
singleton (models/tos.js), editable from a new "Terms of Service" card
on the admin Dashboard, with the bundled tos.md used only as a
one-time seed for new deployments.
- routes/tos.js: GET (any authenticated user) / PUT (app_sso_admin
only) via /api/tos. Saving can optionally reset every user's
tos_accepted flag so they're asked to re-accept -- off by default,
since a wording fix shouldn't re-prompt everyone.
- routes/index.js: /tos and /onboarding now render the live content
instead of a module-level constant computed once at process start.
ops/backup.sh snapshots LDAP (slapcat), Redis (BGSAVE, dynamic RDB path
lookup), and ./config for standalone deployments, with retention. A
background service polls GitHub releases every 24h and surfaces an
admin-only banner in the UI when a newer version is published.
The Integrations page's Service Accounts (bind-only, organizationalRole)
don't cover the other real use case: an account something actually runs
as on a Linux host -- a media manager, a torrent client, Emby -- with a
real uidNumber/gidNumber that owns files, and a group other accounts
join for write access (e.g. a `stuff_manager` group granting write
rights to a media library). That needs a real posixAccount, which the
bind-only model can't be.
- New well-known group `app_sso_service_account`, seeded the same way as
app_sso_admin/app_sso_invite/app_sso_oauth_admin (docker-entrypoint.sh,
ops/ldap-setup.sh). Not a permission gate -- a marker.
- "Add new user" form gets a "This is a service account" checkbox: swaps
the person-shaped fields (first/last name, birthday, ToS agreement)
for a single account-name field, since none of those make sense for a
non-person account. On create, the route adds the user to
app_sso_service_account.
- User.listDetail() annotates each user with isServiceAccount (checked
against the marker group's member list once per call, not the memberof
overlay's reverse attribute -- not reliably returned by every LDAP
server this app might point at, confirmed against a real external
directory during testing). Users page shows a "service" badge.
- Notification broadcasts (filter_type=all/all_active) exclude service
accounts by default -- nobody reads mail as `stuff_manager`.
- Fixed a real, previously-unrelated bug this surfaced: addPosixAccount
unconditionally set `mail: data.mail` in the LDAP entry even when
undefined, and ldapts/slapd reject an attribute given an explicit
undefined value ("no values for attribute type") rather than treating
it as absent. This meant creating ANY user without an email already
failed outright -- not something a service account (which commonly has
no real mailbox) could route around. Made mail conditional, matching
how mobile/sshPublicKey/dob already work.
- docs/ldap.md now explains both kinds of service account side by side
and when to use which.
Verified end-to-end against a real external LDAP server (not a local
sandbox): created a service account with no email, confirmed it's
correctly flagged and excluded from broadcast recipient resolution,
confirmed a normal user is unaffected, confirmed the code degrades
gracefully if the marker group doesn't exist yet (pre-upgrade
deployments).

- OAuth Apps and LDAP Info are both "how do other apps/hosts plug into
this SSO" concerns -- merged into a single /integrations page with
tabs, replacing the two separate nav items with one. /oauth-clients
and /ldap-info 301-redirect there for compat.
- Add a Service Accounts section under the LDAP tab: bind-only LDAP
identities (organizationalRole + simpleSecurityObject, no
posixAccount) for apps/hosts, as opposed to real people. Create,
rotate password, and delete, all from the UI -- previously the only
such account (theta-env's bootstrap-created cn=ldapclient) was
invisible to the Users page entirely (filtered out by
conf.ldap.userFilter) and had no GUI way to see or rotate it; the new
ServiceAccount model uses the exact same objectClasses bootstrap.js
already creates cn=ldapclient with, so it recognizes and manages that
account too, not just ones created through this UI.
- The ldap-client bash snippet now points at "create one under Service
Accounts above" instead of a bare textual example.
Verified against a real LDAP server (not just the dev sandbox's usual
unreachable one): created a service account, confirmed it binds
successfully with the generated password, rotated its password, and
deleted it.

New admin-only page (nav: "LDAP Info") that answers "what do I put in my
app's LDAP settings" without reading a doc: LDAPS URL, base DN, user/group
search bases, user filter, username attribute, and an example bind DN, all
derived from the running conf.ldap + request host rather than hardcoded --
so it's always correct for the actual deployment, copy-button on every
field.
Also generates a copy-pasteable bash snippet that clones
theta42/ldap-client and writes its ldap.vars file with the real host/base
DN/sso_url already filled in (bind password and SSO API token left as
placeholders with inline instructions, since those need to be created,
not derived).

The admin UI is a traditional multi-page app that loads ~13 separate
vendor/app JS+CSS files on every full navigation; none were compressed and
Cache-Control was max-age=0 (Express's default), forcing a revalidation
round-trip for every asset on every page view. Add gzip (compression
middleware) and sane Cache-Control (7d for vendor libs under
/static-modules, 1h for the app's own /static JS/CSS, which isn't
cache-busted). Matches the equivalent fix in theta42/proxy.

theta42/proxy fronts an arbitrary number of hosts behind SSO, each with its
own callback URL (https://<host>/__proxy_auth/callback) — proxy's own code
comment already assumed "a wildcard redirect URI covers all", but no
wildcard matching existed here, so every proxied host's callback had to be
registered on the shared OAuth client individually or /oauth/authorize
would reject it with InvalidRedirectURI.
Add `*` (one hostname label) / `**` (any number of labels) wildcard support
to redirect_uri matching, e.g. `https://**.example.com/__proxy_auth/callback`
now covers every host proxy fronts under example.com. Exact matches still
work exactly as before.

- Replace the separate Profile/API Tokens nav items with a single link
showing the logged-in user's name, pointing at their own profile.
- Merge admin.ejs + notifications.ejs into a new dashboard.ejs page.
/admin and /notifications now 301-redirect to /dashboard.
- Fold the API Tokens page into profile.ejs as a self-service-only
section, gated on isOwnProfile so it never appears when an admin
views another user's profile via /users/:uid. /api-tokens 301s to /.
- Fix: the section must not carry class="row" — app-base.js runs a
page-wide $('div.row').fadeIn() on every page load that would reveal
it regardless of the isOwnProfile check, since it fires before this
page's own gating logic.

* docs: cleanup for public release (fix stale/wrong API docs, LICENSE, versions)
Documentation cleanup ahead of the public release announcement. Fixes a set
of confirmed issues from a prior audit:
- LICENSE: fill in MIT template placeholders (theta42, 2026).
- README.md: fix broken API docs link (api.md -> API.md), correct required
Node.js version (13.x -> 20.x), add the missing app_sso_invite group to
the LDAP groups table, scrub hardcoded dc=theta42,dc=com to the generic
dc=example,dc=com used elsewhere, add a "Recommended: Docker or
install.sh" section pointing to DEPLOYMENT.md/docs before the manual
OpenLDAP walkthrough, and drop an emoji from a warning callout.
- nodejs/api.md: deleted — it was a stale/legacy doc with wrong routes,
wrong request bodies, and endpoints that are dead/commented-out code.
The root API.md is the accurate, current reference; README now links
there directly.
- API.md: add the missing app_sso_invite permission group, fix the
documented invite response to match the real {token, link, mail_sent}
payload, document the previously-undocumented GET/PUT/DELETE
/api/user/invite endpoints, add the real allowed_groups field to the
OAuth client management examples, and document POST /api/oauth/authorize
(the endpoint that actually issues the code after consent).
- nodejs/routes/auth.js + API.md: fix "emaill address" typo in the
password-reset response message (source and docs kept in sync).
- DEPLOYMENT.md: fix the top-level summary to mention Redis, matching
docs/deployment.md and the entrypoint behavior it already documents.
Flagged, not changed: tos.md reads like a personal home-lab acceptable-use
policy (Emby/Gitea/Proxmox/Discord/Signal, first-person "the admin") rather
than generic OSS docs. Left in place pending a manual decision to
genericize, relocate, or remove it.

* docs: genericize tos.md template, track runtime-editable terms in #39
Removes operator-specific references (Emby, Gitea, Proxmox, Discord,
Signal, first-person "the admin") so the shipped tos.md reads as a
neutral starting template rather than one operator's internal policy.
Actual runtime editability (admin/legal editing terms without a code
change) is tracked in issue #39, not implemented here.

Personal access tokens so scripts/CI can call the management API without a
browser session. Each logged-in user mints their own token; it authenticates as
the creator (carries their LDAP group permissions, re-resolved live), so the
existing permission.byGroup checks apply unchanged.
- models/api_token.js: new ApiToken model (sso_<id>_<secret> format; id is the
lookup key, secret bcrypt-hashed + isPrivate, shown once). add()/rotate()/
authenticate(); optional expires_at; best-effort last_used_on. No _ttl
(persists; lifetime via expires_at).
- routes/api_token.js: self-service CRUD (list/get/update/delete/rotate),
owner-scoped (created_by === req.user.uid, 403 otherwise).
- middleware/auth.js + models/auth.js: accept `Authorization: Bearer sso_...`
(precedence over the auth-token session header); checkApiToken collapses
every failure to one generic 401 (no existence/secret/expiry leak).
- views/api_tokens.ejs + routes/index.js (GET /api-tokens): self-service page
(forceLogin, no group gate) — create (token shown once), edit, rotate, revoke.
- views/top.ejs: "API Tokens" nav entry visible to all logged-in users.
- public/js/app.js: app.apiToken client module.
- DEPLOYMENT.md + docs/deployment.md: API tokens section.
