The snapshot publisher broadcast to Clients.All on every ~1s tick forever, with
zero viewers. Each tick cost a session-registry snapshot and sort, a metrics
snapshot that copies dictionaries under the global metrics lock, a full rebuild
of EffectiveGatewayConfiguration, and a SQLite read of the API key table.
DashboardSnapshotHub now counts live connections into the singleton
DashboardSnapshotHubConnectionCounter (clamped at zero, since SignalR can call
OnDisconnectedAsync for a connection whose OnConnectedAsync faulted). The
publisher drives the snapshot enumerator by hand instead of await foreach: with
no connections it does not call MoveNextAsync at all, so the producing iterator
stays suspended at its yield and no snapshot is built — the gate removes the
build, not just the broadcast. It re-checks once a second, so the first viewer
resumes the tick within about one interval; that viewer is seeded immediately by
DashboardPageBase's synchronous GetSnapshot() and by the hub's OnConnectedAsync.
Two per-tick costs are bounded independently of the gate: the effective
configuration is startup-static (options are bound once at boot and never
reloaded), so it is built once and cached; and the API key summaries refresh at
most every 15s, since the list only changes when an operator creates, rotates,
or revokes a key. Only a successful refresh restarts the interval, so a failed
or timed-out read is still retried on the next tick with the previous summaries
left on screen.
Gateway-side follow-up to the shared auth-lib expiry core (delivered via G-2):
- apikey create-key gains optional --expires — absolute ISO-8601 UTC or relative
<N>d/<N>h from now; omitted means non-expiring (opt-in, unchanged default).
Threaded ApiKeyAdminCommand -> parser -> runner into the library's
CreateKeyAsync(..., expiresUtc, ...). list-keys shows an expiry column and an
active/expired/revoked status.
- Dashboard API Keys page surfaces expiry: an Expires column (Never when unset)
and a status badge reading Expired (red) / Expiring (<=7d, amber) / Revoked /
Active. DashboardApiKeySummary.ExpiresUtc projected in DashboardSnapshotService;
StatusBadge maps the new states.
Tests: parser (absolute/relative/invalid/none) + end-to-end past-expiry rejection
through the live verifier; dashboard summary suite green. Docs: Authentication.md
(verification-flow expiry step, CLI table + examples, dashboard badge).
Closes the tracked SEC-10 polish (SEC-10 core was already Done).
Resolves Server-059, Tests-041, Server-060 (2026-06-25 re-review).
DashboardSnapshotService memoized the whole Galaxy summary keyed on the cache
Sequence, but the shared library bumps Sequence only on a heavy refresh: the
steady-state tick, the refresh-failure path, and the age-based status getter all
replace the entry via 'previous with { ... }' at the SAME Sequence. The dashboard
therefore froze LastQueriedAt and, during a Galaxy SQL outage, kept showing
Healthy with no error for the whole outage.
Split DashboardGalaxySummaryProjector into ComputeBreakdown (the O(N) template/
category work, the only sequence-bound part) and BuildSummary (cheap volatile
fields copied fresh). ResolveGalaxySummary now memoizes only the breakdown by
Sequence and rebuilds the summary from the current entry each tick. Removed the
redundant DashboardGalaxyProjector wrapper.
Tests: same-sequence status/error/timestamp now reflected (the regression);
memoization-hit and sequence-invalidation guards; GatewayApplicationTests asserts
the DI container resolves IGalaxyBrowseScopeProvider to GatewayBrowseScopeProvider
(pins the registration-order invariant over the library's no-op default).
Adds missing <summary>/<param> XML docs across 99 server, worker, and test
files so CommentChecker reports zero issues (TreatWarningsAsErrors needs the
analyzer clean). Bundles in WIP dashboard work: NavSection extraction,
MainLayout/site.css/js styling alignment, and DashboardOptions/Auth tweaks.
Apply the ZB.MOM.WW. prefix to all gateway-side projects, folders,
.csproj/.sln contents, C# namespaces, using directives, generated proto
C# (csharp_namespace + checked-in generated files), InternalsVisibleTo
attributes, project-name string literals (LoadProject, .sln lookups,
worker exe paths, staticwebassets manifest), and the install/script/doc
references that point at any of the above. Migrate the solution from
.sln to .slnx via `dotnet sln migrate` and delete the old file.
External-runtime identifiers are intentionally NOT prefixed so external
configuration keeps working:
- GatewayMetrics.cs MeterName ("MxGateway.Server")
- DashboardAuthenticationDefaults Scheme/Policy ("MxGateway.Dashboard")
- GatewayRequestLoggingMiddleware logger category ("MxGateway.Request")
- StaRuntime thread name ("MxGateway.Worker.STA")
- appsettings.json root section "MxGateway" + env-var prefix
MxGateway__... and secret-name MxGateway:ApiKeyPepper
- C:\ProgramData\MxGateway\ data dir paths
Also fixes two tests that were not rename-related but became visible
while validating the rename:
- WorkerLiveMxAccessSmokeTests.ShutDownAsync: cancellation that the
gateway service correctly maps to RpcException(Cancelled) per gRPC
convention was being misclassified as a stream fault. Added a sibling
catch on RpcException with StatusCode.Cancelled.
- IntegrationTestEnvironment.ResolveRepositoryRoot: extracted IsRepositoryRoot
and made it accept either a .git marker OR a .sln/.slnx next to src/
so the worker-exe walker works in non-git working copies.
clients/proto/proto-inputs.json's protoRoot updated to point at
src/ZB.MOM.WW.MxGateway.Contracts/Protos.
Verified by `dotnet build` and a full `dotnet test` of the .slnx with
MXGATEWAY_RUN_LIVE_{MXACCESS,LDAP,GALAXY}_TESTS=1:
Tests: 472/472 pass
Worker.Tests: 280/280 pass (4 dev-rig [Fact(Skip=...)] skipped)
IntegrationTests: 18/18 pass
