feat(scripts): read-only, allow-listed Files global for site scripts; Delmia test receiver parses recipe files
Script file access (design docs/plans/2026-09-28-script-file-access-design.md): Files.ReadTextAsync / ReadLinesAsync / ExistsAsync on site ScriptGlobals (+ Instance.Files), backed by the site-singleton ScriptFileReader. The one host-mediated exception to the System.IO ban - scripts still never name a System.IO type. OFF by default: ScadaBridge:SiteRuntime:ScriptFileAccess:AllowedRoots (empty = every call throws Disabled) + MaxFileBytes (1 MiB, validated 1..64 MiB, roots must be absolute). Guard: fully qualified, no device paths / ADS, canonical path strictly inside a root (directory-boundary match), no reparse point on the file or any directory below the root, size cap before and during the read. Errors are one Commons type, ScriptFileAccessException(+ScriptFileAccessFailure); Commons.Types.Scripts joins the default script imports on every surface so it binds by short name. Mirrored on ScriptCompileSurface (CompileFiles, parity-pinned) and the Test Run sandbox (binds, refuses Disabled). Inbound (central) scripts do not get it. Rig: docker/recipes (sample RecipeValueName,RecipeValue files incl. an invalid one) bind-mounted read-only at /app/recipes on both site-a nodes with AllowedRoots [/app/recipes]. The TestMesMachine SimDelmiaRecipe simulator now reads + parses the downloaded file, converts each value to its recipe tag's type and loads it all-or-nothing (14 new TestDelmiaReceiver attributes); verify-mes-test-machine.sh group A covers accept / re-download / invalid lines / NotFound / OutsideAllowedRoots, VERIFY_GROUPS selects groups (rig: AD).

# Script file access — the `Files` global (2026-09-28)
|
||||
|
||||
## Problem
|
||||
|
||||
A Delmia recipe download hands the machine a `DownloadPath`; in production the Galaxy `DelmiaReceiver`
|
||||
object's own script opens that text file, parses it and loads the values into its tags. ScadaBridge scripts
|
||||
cannot do the same thing: the trust policy forbids `System.IO` outright, and the deploy gate refuses any
|
||||
script that names a `System.IO` type. So an in-memory test machine (and any future ScadaBridge-side
|
||||
receiver) could exercise the handshake but never the file parse.
|
||||
|
||||
## Options considered
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Leave parsing in the Galaxy.** No change; test machines never parse.
|
||||
2. **A small file-reader HTTP service reached through `ExternalSystem.Call`.** No trust-model change, but a
|
||||
new service to deploy and secure on every site.
|
||||
3. **A host-mediated, allow-listed platform API.** *Chosen* (user decision). A deliberate, narrow exception
|
||||
to the trust boundary: the script never touches `System.IO`; the host reads on its behalf, only beneath
|
||||
directories an administrator lists.
|
||||
|
||||
Rejected outright: reading through SQL Server (`OPENROWSET(BULK …)` via `Database.Connection`) — needs
|
||||
elevated SQL rights, reads the SQL host's filesystem, and sidesteps the trust policy.
|
||||
|
||||
## Decisions
|
||||
|
||||
- **Surface.** `Files.ReadTextAsync(path)`, `Files.ReadLinesAsync(path)`, `Files.ExistsAsync(path)` on the
|
||||
site `ScriptGlobals` (+ `Instance.Files`), each taking an optional `CancellationToken`. Read-only — no
|
||||
write, list, delete or directory enumeration; add one only with its own use case.
|
||||
- **Off by default.** `ScadaBridge:SiteRuntime:ScriptFileAccess:AllowedRoots` (absolute local/UNC dirs,
|
||||
default empty) and `MaxFileBytes` (default 1 MiB, 1…64 MiB). No roots ⇒ every call throws `Disabled`, so
|
||||
upgrading a site changes nothing until an operator opts in. Validated at boot.
|
||||
- **Guard (host side, `ScriptFileReader`).** Fully-qualified path; no device paths or alternate data
|
||||
streams; canonicalize, then a directory-boundary prefix match against each root; no reparse point on the
|
||||
file or any directory between root and file; size cap enforced before and during the read.
|
||||
- **One exception type in Commons** — `ScriptFileAccessException` + `ScriptFileAccessFailure` — because
|
||||
scripts cannot name `System.IO` exceptions. `Commons.Types.Scripts` joins the default script imports on
|
||||
every surface so it binds by short name.
|
||||
- **Site scripts only.** Inbound API scripts run on central and have no `Files`. The Test Run sandbox
|
||||
mirrors the member (so scripts bind) and throws `Disabled` at run time. `ScriptCompileSurface.CompileFiles`
|
||||
mirrors it for the deploy gate; parity is pinned by `CompileSurfaceParityTests`.
|
||||
- **Not audited.** File reads are not one of the audit channels; refusals log a node Warning.
|
||||
|
||||
## Accepted residuals
|
||||
|
||||
- Time-of-check/time-of-use between the link check and the open: a writer inside an allowed root could swap
|
||||
a file for a link in between. Bounded by the allow-list (only administrator-chosen directories) and by the
|
||||
API being read-only.
|
||||
- The node's service account permissions still apply; on a site pair both nodes need the same roots and the
|
||||
same access (a script can run on either node after failover).
|
||||
|
||||
## First consumer
|
||||
|
||||
`docker/seed-mes-test-machine.sh`: the `SimDelmiaRecipe` simulator on `TestMesMachine` reads the downloaded
|
||||
recipe file (`RecipeValueName,RecipeValue` per line), types each value (int → double → bool → string) and
|
||||
loads it into the matching `TestDelmiaReceiver` recipe attributes, rejecting unknown names and malformed
|
||||
lines. Sample files: `docker/recipes/`.
