# Migration Plan: cteward-st-lexware (Node.js) → cteward-ng (Python/Flask)
|
||||
|
||||
## Framework Decision
|
||||
|
||||
**Chosen: Flask** — not Django.
|
||||
|
||||
| Criteria | Flask | Django |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| App type | Read-only REST API, no admin panel needed | Full-featured framework with ORM, admin, batteries included |
|
||||
| Complexity | Lightweight, minimal boilerplate | Heavy, opinionated, unnecessary overhead |
|
||||
| SQL Server access | `pyodbc` works cleanly | Django's MSSQL ORM support is third-party (`mssql-django`) and fragile |
|
||||
| Existing pattern | Already using `pyodbc` directly in `main.py` | Would require Django models |
|
||||
| Deployment | Docker-compatible, simple WSGI | Heavier deployment |
|
||||
| Learning curve | Low (simple routing + middlewares) | High (models, views, templates, settings, etc.) |
|
||||
|
||||
The app is a thin read-only REST API wrapper around MSSQL queries. Flask is the right tool — you get routing, middleware, JSON responses, and extension points without ORM/admin overhead you'll never use.

||||

|
||||
## Architecture Overview of the Legacy App
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
HTTP Request (restify)
|
||||
→ Auth Middleware (LDAP or bot password, Basic auth)
|
||||
→ Permission Resolution (flag-based: _board_, _member_, _self_, etc.)
|
||||
→ SQL Query Execution (mssql → MSSQL via connection pool)
|
||||
→ Data Filter (e.g. active-only, self-only)
|
||||
→ Data Mapping (raw DB columns → API response shape)
|
||||
→ Renderer (JSON or CSV output)
|
||||
→ HTTP Response
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 0: Project Scaffolding ✅ DONE
|
||||
|
||||
Created `cteward-ng/cteward-ng/` with the following structure:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
cteward-ng/
|
||||
cteward-st-lexware/ # ← old, untouched
|
||||
cteward_ng/
|
||||
__init__.py
|
||||
app.py # Flask app factory + middleware
|
||||
config.py # Config loading (JSON, env vars)
|
||||
auth.py # Basic auth + LDAP + bot auth (stubs)
|
||||
permissions.py # Flag-based permission resolution (stubs)
|
||||
database.py # pyodbc pool + all SQL query defs (stubs)
|
||||
memberdata.py # realstatus(), datum(), patenarray() (full)
|
||||

```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 1: Infrastructure & Configuration ✅ DONE
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] **Config loading**: Done in `config.py` — ports the JSON config loading from `st-lexware-test.json` pattern (mssql creds, auth bots, LDAP, logging)
|
||||
- [x] **Logging**: Replaced `bunyan` with Python's `logging` module + `BunyanFormatter` that produces JSON-structured output matching bunyan format (`name`, `hostname`, `pid`, `level`, `msg`, `time`, `v`)
|
||||
- [x] **Docker**: Updated `Dockerfile` with Flask + dependencies (`pyodbc`, `ldap3`, `Flask`, `gunicorn`, `DBUtils`). Updated `podman-compose.yml` with proper environment variables, volumes, and restart policy.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 2: Database Layer
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Connection pool**: Port `database.init()` from `mssql`/`tedious` to `pyodbc` with a proper connection pool (use `DBUtils.PooledDB` or SQLAlchemy Core pool). The existing `main.py` has a basic `pyodbc` connection to build on.
|
||||
- [ ] **Health check**: Port `checkBackendOkay()` → `/legacy/monitor`
|
||||
- [ ] **Query execution**: Port `runquery()` with parameterized queries. All 14 SQL statements need to be ported from T-SQL `@param` syntax to pyodbc `?` syntax:
|
||||
- `QUERY_CONTRACTLIST_BY_CREWNAME` ✅ (definition stubbed)
|
||||
- `QUERY_CONTRACT_BY_CREWNAME_AND_CONTRACT` ✅
|
||||
- `QUERY_DEBITLIST_BY_CREWNAME` ✅
|
||||
- `QUERY_DEBIT_BY_CREWNAME_AND_GUID` ✅
|
||||
- `QUERY_MEMBERLIST` ✅
|
||||
- `QUERY_MEMBERLIST_RAW` ✅
|
||||
- `QUERY_MEMBER_BY_CREWNAME` ✅
|
||||
- `QUERY_MEMBER_MEMO_BY_CREWNAME` ✅
|
||||
- `QUERY_WITHDRAWALLIST_BY_CREWNAME` ✅
|
||||
- `QUERY_WITHDRAWAL_BY_CREWNAME_AND_GUID` ✅
|
||||
- `QUERY_PAYMENTLIST_BY_CREWNAME` ✅
|
||||
- `QUERY_STATS_MEMBERS` (special, complex aggregation) ⬅️ needs implementation
|
||||
- `QUERY_STATS_CONTRACTS` (special) ⬅️ needs implementation
|
||||
- `QUERY_STATS_GENDERS` (special) ⬅️ needs implementation
|
||||
- `QUERY_STATS_AGES` (special) ⬅️ needs implementation
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 3: Data Utilities
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] **Port `memberdata.js`** → `memberdata.py`:
|
||||
- [x] `realstatus()` — determine crew/passive/ex-crew/raumfahrer status
|
||||
- [x] `datum()` — parse `YYYYMMDD` strings to German date format
|
||||
- [x] `datum_parsed()` — parse ISO date strings
|
||||
- [x] `patenarray()` / `cleanpaten()` — comma-separated name parsing
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 4: Authentication & Authorization
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Port `authprovider.js`** → `auth.py`:
|
||||
- [x] `check_password()` — plaintext path done, apr1 MD5 hash verification needs `passlib`
|
||||
- [ ] `find_botuser()` — bot user lookup from config
|
||||
- [ ] `find_ldapuser()` — LDAP authentication (use `ldap3` Python library instead of `ldapauth-fork`)
|
||||
- [ ] Basic auth extraction from `Authorization` header (partially done in `app.py` for logging)
|
||||
- [ ] **Port permission resolution** → `permissions.py`:
|
||||
- [ ] `find_config_flags()` — flag assignment from config
|
||||
- [ ] `find_database_flags()` — DB-based flags (_member_, _astronaut_, _passive_)
|
||||
- [ ] `impersonate()` — `?impersonate=` query param support
|
||||
- [ ] `effective_permissions()` — lowest-level permission wins
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 5: Filters & Mappings
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Port `filters.js`** → `filters.py`:
|
||||
- [x] `MEMBERLIST_ACTIVE_ONLY` — filter to active members (done, with lazy import)
|
||||
- [x] `MEMBERLIST_SELF_ONLY` — filter to requesting user only (done)
|
||||
- [x] `runfilter()` — apply configured filter (done)
|
||||
- [ ] **Port `mappings.js`** → `mappings.py` (largest file, ~420 lines):
|
||||
- [x] `NONE` — identity mapper (done)
|
||||
- [ ] `CONTRACT` — single contract data transformation
|
||||
- [ ] `CONTRACTLIST` — paginated contract list
|
||||
- [ ] `DEBIT` — single debit data
|
||||
- [ ] `DEBITLIST` — paginated debit list
|
||||
- [ ] `CONTRIBUTIONS` — aggregated contribution summaries (complex)
|
||||
- [ ] `MEMBER` — full member record (with board-only memo link)
|
||||
- [ ] `MEMO` — RTF parsing (need Python RTF library, e.g., `rtfparse`)
|
||||
- [ ] `MEMBERLIST` — paginated member list
|
||||
- [ ] `MEMBERLIST_TO_LDAPCSV` — CSV export format
|
||||
- [ ] `WITHDRAWAL` — single withdrawal data
|
||||
- [ ] `WITHDRAWALLIST` — paginated withdrawal list
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 6: API Routes
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Port `startup.js` routes** → `views.py` (Flask blueprints):
|
||||
- [x] `GET /legacy/monitor` — health check (returns OK placeholder)
|
||||
- [ ] `GET /legacy/memberlist-oldformat` — CSV member list (LDAP export)
|
||||
- [ ] `GET /legacy/stats/members` — member count over time
|
||||
- [ ] `GET /legacy/stats/contracts` — contract statistics
|
||||
- [ ] `GET /legacy/stats/genders` — gender demographics
|
||||
- [ ] `GET /legacy/stats/ages` — age demographics
|
||||
- [ ] `GET /legacy/member/<crewname>` — member details or list
|
||||
- [ ] `GET /legacy/member/<crewname>/raw` — raw DB record
|
||||
- [ ] `GET /legacy/member/<crewname>/memo` — RTF memo
|
||||
- [ ] `GET /legacy/member/<crewname>/contributions` — contribution summary
|
||||
- [ ] `GET /legacy/member/<crewname>/<contract|debit|withdrawal|payment>/[<id>]/raw/` — raw detail records
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 7: Response Rendering
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] **Port `renderers.js`** → `renderers.py`:
|
||||
- [x] `JSON_OUTPUT` — JSON with 2-decimal float formatting + JSONP callback support
|
||||
- [x] `CSV_OUTPUT` — semicolon-delimited CSV
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 8: Middleware
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] **Port request middleware** (partially done in `app.py`):
|
||||
- [x] Authorization header parsing + username extraction for logging
|
||||
- [x] `WWW-Authenticate` header on unauthenticated requests
|
||||
- [x] CORS / gzip (using `flask-compress` + `flask-cors`)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 9: Tests
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **Port Mocha tests** to `pytest`:
|
||||
- [ ] `test/000-startup.js` → app startup + logging test
|
||||
- [ ] `test/authprovider-*.js` → auth unit tests (6 files)
|
||||
- [x] `test/memberdata_*.js` → memberdata unit tests (4 files merged into `test_memberdata.py`)
|
||||
- [ ] `test/legacy_monitor.js` → health check integration test
|
||||
- Use `pytest-fixtures` for DB mocking, `responses` or `requests-mock` for HTTP
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 10: Validation & Cutover
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **API parity testing**: Hit every endpoint on both old and new with identical credentials; diff JSON responses byte-for-byte
|
||||
- [ ] **Deployment**: Update `podman-compose.yml` to point to new Python service, test in staging, cutover

## Key Migration Notes
|
||||
|
||||
| Concern | Details |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| **RTF parsing** | `unrtf` (JS) → need Python equivalent. `rtfparse` or `extract-msg` may work. This is the riskiest conversion. |
|
||||
| **LDAP** | `ldapauth-fork` → `ldap3`. `ldap3` is the standard Python LDAP library. |
|
||||
| **Password hashing** | `apache-md5` → `passlib` for `apr1` MD5 crypt. |
|
||||
| **Connection pooling** | Use `DBUtils.PooledDB` with `pyodbc` to match the `mssql` pool behavior. |
|
||||
| **JSONP** | The callback parameter for JSONP is legacy but must be preserved. |
|
||||
| **Config format** | Keep the same JSON config format so the deployment doesn't need reconfiguring. |
