mr.zeroandClaude Opus 5 9f55c47269 The uploaded picture is written after the row is committed
`Image#process_upload` ran in a `before_save`: it assigned the generated file
name and copied the bytes to disk, in the same breath, before the row existed.
If the insert failed afterwards — a validation on the owning record, a
uniqueness clash, a rollback from the surrounding transaction — the file stayed
behind with nothing pointing at it. The admin's own "Orphan" scope exists to
find rows in that family; this was the other half of it, the files with no row
at all.

Split in two: `before_validation` assigns the attributes (so validations and the
generated name still see them), `after_commit` copies the bytes. A rollback now
takes the file with it, because the copy never happens.

The same model is generated into every host, so the fix goes into the
generator template as well as ours. While there: `Image#url` comes back from
Teletype Orbit, where it was added and never flowed back, and the two admin
previews use it instead of interpolating `/api/image/#{id}` by hand.

Teletype Games

Monorepo for the Teletype Games portal: a Vue 3 frontend, a Rails 8 API host app, and the reusable WarpEngine software-catalog engine.

Project structure

apps/
  frontend/            # Vue 3 + Vite + TypeScript + Tailwind SPA
  api/                 # Rails 8 host app: TTG-specific API + ActiveAdmin shell
libs/
  ruby/warp_engine/    # WarpEngine: mountable Rails engine (catalog, updater, admin resources)

The API is split in two layers:

  • WarpEngine (libs/ruby/warp_engine) owns the software catalog: models (softwares, releases, release assets, software-image links, platform links, download stats), the CI-callable /build/* publishing endpoints, the public read-only JSON API (/api/software*, /api/builds*, /api/download, /file/*) and the catalog ActiveAdmin resources. See its README.
  • The host app (apps/api) owns everything TTG-specific: members, events, the image library (Image, /api/image/:id, the admin page — the engine only links to it through an adapter), the store registry, wiki proxy, RSS feeds, Devise/ActiveAdmin authentication, theming and assets. It consumes WarpEngine as a path gem and mounts it at /.

The store registry

GET /api/stores lists the stores a client can install from. The desktop graphical client reads it on first run, which is why it is public: a client has nobody to log in as.

[
  { "name": "Teletype Games", "catalogUrl": "https://teletypegames.org", "storeRepositoryUrl": null }
]

A Store row has two required fields — name and catalog_url — plus an optional store_repository_url, maintained from ActiveAdmin ▸ 🛒 Stores; db/seeds.rb creates our own.

A store does not need a repository. The store engine's own defaults already cover the host-to-asset mapping, the install modes, the platforms and the behaviour; what they cannot know is identity — a slug, a name and a catalog — and that is what this row carries. With no repository the client derives the slug from the catalog host, writes a small config and installs. Given one, it reads that repository's config.json and points it at catalog_url, and that file remains the authority on how the store behaves; a repository without a config file is treated as no repository at all.

Every WarpEngine API response also carries a WarpEngine-Version header — the registry above is the host's own endpoint and does not, because it is not part of the engine.

This lives in the host app on purpose, not in WarpEngine. The engine serves one catalog and has no business knowing which stores exist for it; who ships a store for a catalog is a property of the site.

Development environment

docker compose up -d
Service URL
Frontend http://${WEBAPP_DOMAIN}
API http://${WEBAPP_DOMAIN}/api
Admin http://${WEBAPP_DOMAIN}/admin
API docs http://${WEBAPP_DOMAIN}/api/swagger

The api image is built from the repo root (so the libs/ path gems are visible during bundle install) and mounts ./libs at runtime. After changing the compose file or the Gemfile, rebuild with docker compose up -d --build api.

Testing

make api-test

Runs the host suite (apps/api, softwares_test DB), the WarpEngine suite (dummy app, warp_engine_test DB) and a production-mode zeitwerk:check. Individually:

docker exec -e RAILS_ENV=test api bundle exec rspec                                # host
docker exec -w /libs/ruby/warp_engine -e RAILS_ENV=test api bundle exec rspec     # engine

JSON contract baselines for /api/software and /api/builds live in apps/api/spec/snapshots/ — diff against them after refactors.

Linting

Backend (RuboCop)

docker compose run --rm --no-deps api bundle exec rubocop        # check
docker compose run --rm --no-deps api bundle exec rubocop -A     # autofix

Config: apps/api/.rubocop.yml (rubocop-rails-omakase preset)

Frontend (ESLint)

docker compose run --rm --no-deps frontend npm run lint          # check
docker compose run --rm --no-deps frontend npm run lint:fix      # autofix

Config: apps/frontend/eslint.config.js (ESLint 9 flat config, Vue + TypeScript)
