Ten members and a handful of songs a week never needed a database server,
and the server was the last thing making this a two-container deployment.
modernc.org/sqlite is pure Go, so CGO_ENABLED=0 survives and the dependency
count is unchanged: pgx out, sqlite in.
The port stayed small because the driver matches $1-style placeholders
against argument ordinals exactly as pgx does, so no query needed rewriting
for parameters. What did change:
- timestamptz becomes timestamp holding UTC 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS'. The
declared type is what makes the driver return time.Time, and the
fixed-width UTC string is what makes ordering and comparison against
datetime('now') mean what they say.
- interval has no equivalent: sessions.idle_ttl is seconds, and the review
edit window travels as a SQLite date modifier string.
- No stddev_pop, so the divisive and unified boards spell the population
formula out, guarded with max(0.0, ...) because cancellation returns a
tiny negative when every score is identical.
- foreign_keys is off by default, so the cascades only exist because the
pragma is set on every connection.
Drops the postgres service, its healthcheck, the depends_on gate, the
startup retry loop and POSTGRES_PASSWORD. ./storage is now the whole
backup. Tests get a fresh database file per test and run everywhere
instead of skipping without TEST_DATABASE_URL.
Lyrics are suggested at submission and never imposed. The conversion worker
makes one LRCLIB lookup with whatever metadata exists, and the waiting page
has a Hae sanoitukset button that re-queries with whatever title and artist
are currently typed — which is the case that matters, since our metadata comes
from ID3 tags and YouTube uploaders. Neither path overwrites typed text.
- lyrics text on both submissions and songs, copied across at publish. Nothing
has launched, so the column goes into 001_init.sql rather than a migration
- The lock does not cover lyrics: it freezes what the song claims to be, and
nobody reviewed the lyrics. So the submitter can still fix them afterwards,
or paste them for an old song a year later
- The review strip gained a second pane: lyrics on the left, review on the
right, so following the words costs no scrolling. No lyrics means no pane,
not an empty one. Below 1024px the panes stack
- LRC timestamps are stored but stripped for reading — they belong to the
player, not the reader
- The lyrics box is capped and scrolls inside itself, so a long song cannot
stretch the strip past the screen
Fixes a real bug found on the way: saveMetadata cleared any field the request
did not carry, so publishing wiped the lyrics the worker had just fetched.
Fields absent from a request now keep their stored value.
The client identifies itself to LRCLIB as "levyraati" and nothing more.
Tests cover cleanLyrics keeping line breaks, and fetchLyrics against a local
server: synced beats plain, instrumentals and wrong-length takes are skipped,
and a miss is empty with no error.
Versions are YYYY.MM.DD-N, injected with -ldflags from a git tag, so no file
in the repo carries the number and a local build honestly says dev. The
version shows in the footer, the startup log and /healthz.
The song page's metadata was five different kinds of fact — artist, genre,
duration, provenance and a badge about the viewer — in one flat run with two
competing pills. Now the artist has its own line in the display face, and the
facts sit in four labelled cells like the spine of a cassette insert. The
submitter links to their profile, "oma kappale" became "lähetti: sinä", and
the clock time is gone: nobody needs the minute a song was published.
Supersedes decision 17, which expected endpoints to appear one at a time.
Nothing calls /api at all, so even that would be handlers with no callers and
golden tests guarding shapes nothing reads.
The contract stays in the spec as a design — it is what stops the shape
changing under a future client — marked as not built so the spec doesn't
claim behaviour the code lacks. later.md records what to build first when a
consumer appears.
The theme handoff encoded as CSS custom properties rather than a Tailwind
config, since there is no Tailwind here. Palette, spacing, radii, shadows and
motion follow it as written; docs/theme.md lists what differs and why.
- Oswald vendored as a 21KB variable woff2, latin subset, no CDN. Its phantom
weight 900 resolved to 700 — loading a weight you don't have is what made
the brand render differently per platform
- color-scheme: dark makes the native audio element fit the palette, which
was the handoff's complaint about it
- Songs are text cards rather than artwork tiles, because there is no
artwork. The unreviewed state keeps its red-brown border and gains a badge,
so it is never carried by colour alone
- Nav is the three-column grid; the mobile menu is <details>, no JS
- Flash messages became bottom-right toasts
Favicon carried over from the Nuxt project.
Step 5. A URL goes through the same pipeline as an upload — it just gains a
download step and a source_url.
- The host allowlist is checked on the parsed hostname before yt-dlp is
invoked, so lookalikes and userinfo tricks are refused too
- yt-dlp -J reads metadata synchronously with a 15s timeout; a timeout leaves
the fields blank rather than failing the submission
- Over-long tracks are refused from that metadata, before a byte is downloaded
- Failed URL submissions offer Yritä uudelleen with the typed text intact;
uploads cannot retry, so they offer re-upload
Prefill takes track then title, and artist then creator then uploader, and
leaves a field blank rather than inventing one. testdata/ytdlp-noose.json is a
real dump of an ordinary upload, which has none of the music fields.
Also fixes a URL-only submit being blocked by the file input's required
attribute — HTML cannot express "one of these two", so the server says it.
The image now takes yt-dlp from Alpine 3.24 instead of pip, which drops
python3 and pip entirely; see decision 19.
Step 2 of the build order. The admin mints an invite link, the recipient
registers with it, and from then on has a session.
- The invite is spent in the same transaction that creates the account, so a
failed signup leaves the code usable
- Sessions are idle timeouts, 24h or 30 days with remember me, read from a
cookie or a bearer header, extended at most once a minute
- Ban is a reversible toggle that drops the member's live sessions
- No password minimum; login is rate limited instead, 10 failures per email
in 15 minutes, cleared by a correct password
- Invite codes render as links carrying ?code=, which the register form
prefills; PUBLIC_URL makes them pasteable from the loopback admin panel
Tests cover invite spending, the idle timeout, ban, and the rate limiter.
The Nuxt version is being rewritten in Go. This is the design that came out
of it, split by how each part ages:
- CONTEXT.md glossary, English identifiers and Finnish UI wording
- docs/spec.md behaviour: rules, submission pipeline, routes, API contract, schema
- docs/decisions.md why, append-only
- docs/later.md deliberately not in v1
testdata/ytdlp-noose.json is a real yt-dlp dump used to test metadata
prefill against a video with no track, artist or album tags.
