# golem15.journal The compiled journal plugin for SummerCMS applications: translatable posts and categories, tags, a settings singleton, and the tables a host migrate creates for a blog. ```go import _ "git.golem15.com/golem15/sm-journal-plugin" ``` Module `git.golem15.com/golem15/sm-journal-plugin`, package `journal`, plugin ID `golem15.journal`. ## Overview The plugin is a compiled SummerCMS plugin. Its `init` registers it with the framework, so an application loads it by listing it in `summer.yaml`; `summer build` then emits the blank import above into the application's `plugins.gen.go`. It requires `golem15.translate`. Post and Category store default-locale values on host columns and other locales in `golem15_translate_attributes`. `MorphName` is the PHP class string (`Golem15\Journal\Models\Post`, `Golem15\Journal\Models\Category`); it is never `reflect.Type.String()`. WinterCMS theme components such as `journalPost` and `journalPosts` are a later successor, not implemented here. ## Features - **Posts.** `models.Post` maps `golem15_journal_posts`. Translatable fields are title, content, content_html, excerpt, metadata, and slug (indexed). Fillable does not include `redactor_id`, `content_html`, or `user_id`. Attachments `featured_images` and `content_images` use `system_files` under the same MorphName. YAML admin uses `mltext`/`mlmarkdown`. `classes.FormatHTML` regenerates `content_html` on admin save. It passes raw HTML in `content` through unchanged (Winter parity), so imported HTML bodies survive a save, and its gate still refuses script, iframe, object and embed tags, event handlers and javascript, vbscript and data URLs on every write path (admin save, `journal:import-posts`, Journal API writes). The API response shapes are unchanged. - **Categories and tags.** `models.Category` is translatable (name, description, slug). It also stores `content`, an HTML host column that is not translatable, edited in the admin as a textarea. Fillable is name, slug, code, description, content and parent_id; nest_* columns exist in DDL and are not fillable. `models.Tag` is not translatable. Fillable is name, slug, description. Pivots are `golem15_journal_posts_categories` and `golem15_journal_posts_tags`. - **Settings.** Singleton row ID=1 on `golem15_journal_settings`, not PHP `system_settings`. `search_use_typesense` defaults to false. A fresh save never contacts Typesense. - **Public HTTP.** Anonymous GET `/_journal/api/v1/posts`, `/posts/{slug}`, `/categories`, `/tags`, `/rss`, `/authors/{author}`, and `/authors/{author}/posts`. Writes under the same prefix require a cabana backend JWT (`aud=backend`). - **Author slug.** Plugin migration adds `backend_users.golem15_bloghub_author_slug`. The column stores the public author slug that the author routes resolve. - **Import and export.** `journal:export-posts` and `journal:import-posts` write and read one JSON file per post. The Posts list toolbar exposes the same actions to administrators with `golem15.journal.access_import_export`. - **Phrasebooks.** Embedded `lang/en/lang.yaml` and `lang/pl/lang.yaml` hold plugin, journal, post, category, and tag UI strings. They are independent of model translation JSON. - **Schema.** Eight gormigrate steps create the six journal tables, the author-slug column and the category `content` column. AutoMigrate is not used. Table names are `golem15_journal_*` only. ## Usage Mount the plugin in an application as a git submodule at `plugins/golem15/journal`: ```sh git submodule add git@git.golem15.com:golem15/sm-journal-plugin.git plugins/golem15/journal ``` Add it to the application's `go.work`: ```text use ( . ./plugins/golem15/journal ) ``` Require it in the application's `go.mod` with a local replace: ```text require git.golem15.com/golem15/sm-journal-plugin v0.0.0 replace git.golem15.com/golem15/sm-journal-plugin => ./plugins/golem15/journal ``` List it in `summer.yaml` after translate and run `summer build`: ```yaml module: git.golem15.com/golem15/acme binary: acme plugins: - id: golem15.translate module: git.golem15.com/golem15/sm-translate-plugin - id: golem15.journal module: git.golem15.com/golem15/sm-journal-plugin ``` The plugin's own `go.mod` replaces the framework with `../summercms.go` for a sibling checkout next to `summercms.go`. A host application that mounts the plugin at `plugins/golem15/journal` should replace the framework from the host `go.work`. `Requires()` is exactly `golem15.translate`. A blog frontend lists published posts and fetches one by slug without a token: ```http GET /_journal/api/v1/posts GET /_journal/api/v1/posts/hello-world GET /_journal/api/v1/categories GET /_journal/api/v1/tags GET /_journal/api/v1/rss GET /_journal/api/v1/authors/jane-doe GET /_journal/api/v1/authors/jane-doe/posts?page=2 ``` ### Public categories API `GET /_journal/api/v1/categories` returns `{"data":[...]}`, a tree of category rows. Each row has the keys `id`, `name`, `slug`, `description`, `content`, `parent_id`, `nest_depth` and `post_count`, plus `children` only when the category has listed children. A category with no published posts and no listed children is omitted unless the request adds `include_empty=1`. `content` is the category's HTML body for a category landing page. It is stored and returned as is: it is not markdown and the API does not render, trim or sanitize it. It is `null` when unset, and it is the same in every locale, because it is a host column and not translatable. A consumer that renders it as HTML must apply its own gate or sanitizer first. The admin Categories form refuses content that fails `classes.CheckHTML` with a `422` on `content`, and stores blank content as `null`. Rows written by SQL or by import commands bypass that gate, so consumers keep their own gate. ```json {"data":[{"id":4,"name":"Acme news","slug":"news","description":null,"content":"

Acme news

Pillar copy

","parent_id":null,"nest_depth":0,"post_count":3}]} ``` ### Public author API `GET /_journal/api/v1/authors/{author}` returns one author's public profile without a token. `{author}` resolves in this order: 1. `backend_users.golem15_bloghub_author_slug`, the public author slug. A user with a slug resolves even before their first post. 2. `backend_users.login`, but only for a user with at least one published post. That login is already public through the post `author` object, so other backend accounts cannot be enumerated. Soft-deleted backend users never resolve. Unlike the WinterCMS author component, a login also resolves for a user who has a slug, because the post `author` object carries the login and no slug. ```json {"data":{"id":7,"slug":"jane-doe","first_name":"Jane","last_name":"Doe"}} ``` The author object has exactly these four keys. `slug` is the canonical identifier: the author slug when set, otherwise the login, so a consumer that links by login sets its canonical URL from `slug`. Missing names are empty strings. The object carries no contact, credential, permission or role data and has no `login` key; `slug` falls back to the login only for an author whose login is already public through a published post. An unknown author, a login without published posts, a soft-deleted user and a malformed value (empty, over 255 bytes, invalid UTF-8 or containing a control character) all answer `404`: ```json {"error":"Author not found"} ``` `GET /_journal/api/v1/authors/{author}/posts` lists that author's published posts (`published` true and `published_at` in the past), resolving `{author}` the same way. Rows have the same shape as `GET /_journal/api/v1/posts` rows. Bearer tokens are ignored, so an editor also sees published posts only. Query keys: | Key | Default | Notes | |-----|---------|-------| | `page` | `1` | Values below 1 or non-numeric fall back to page 1. | | `per_page` | `9` | Clamped to 1..30. | | `sort` | `published_at desc` | Same columns as `/posts`: `published_at`, `created_at`, `updated_at`, `title`, `id`, each `asc` or `desc`. | The response uses the `/posts` pagination envelope (rows trimmed here): ```json {"data":[{"id":12,"slug":"hello-world","title":"Hello world","author":{"id":7,"first_name":"Jane","last_name":"Doe","login":"jdoe"}}],"meta":{"current_page":2,"last_page":2,"per_page":9,"total":10}} ``` An author that does not resolve answers the same `404 {"error":"Author not found"}` as the profile route. Editors create a post with a cabana backend JWT (audience `backend`): ```http POST /_journal/api/v1/posts Authorization: Bearer Content-Type: application/json {"title":"Hello","content":"A blog post"} ``` A blog post model already declares translatable fields: ```go func (Post) Translatable() []string { return []string{"title", "content", "content_html", "excerpt", "metadata", "slug"} } func (Post) TranslatableIndexes() []string { return []string{"slug"} } func (Post) MorphName() string { return `Golem15\Journal\Models\Post` } ``` ## API reference | Identifier | Description | |------------|-------------| | `journal.Plugin` | Compiled plugin; `ID` is `golem15.journal`. | | `journal.Plugin.Requires` | Returns `golem15.translate` only. | | `journal.Plugin.LangFS` | Embedded English and Polish UI phrasebooks. | | `journal.Plugin.Migrations` | gormigrate steps registered by this plugin. | | `journal.Plugin.Models` | Models registered by this plugin. | | `journal.Plugin.Commands` | Registers `journal:export-posts` and `journal:import-posts`. | | `journal.Plugin.Routes` | Public GETs (posts, categories, tags, RSS, authors) and backend-Bearer writes under `/_journal/api/v1`. | | `journal.Plugin.Buckets` | Limiter buckets `journal-public-api` and `journal-api` (Max 120). | | `models.Post` | Post row; `TableName` is `golem15_journal_posts`. | | `models.Post.MorphName` | PHP class string `Golem15\Journal\Models\Post`. | | `models.Post.Fillable` | Allow-list excluding `redactor_id`, `content_html`, and `user_id`. | | `models.Post.AttachRelations` | `featured_images` and `content_images` attachMany. | | `models.Post.SearchableAs` | Index name `golem15_journal_posts`. | | `models.Post.ShouldBeSearchable` | False when unpublished or `search_use_typesense` is off. | | `models.Post.ToSearchableArray` | Typesense document built after a committed save. | | `models.Post.CanEdit` | Owner or `golem15.journal.access_other_posts`. | | `models.Category` | Category row; `TableName` is `golem15_journal_categories`; `Content` holds the HTML body served as `content`. | | `models.Category.MorphName` | PHP class string `Golem15\Journal\Models\Category`. | | `models.Category.Fillable` | `name`, `slug`, `code`, `description`, `content`, `parent_id`. | | `models.Tag` | Tag row; `TableName` is `golem15_journal_tags`. | | `models.Tag.Fillable` | `name`, `slug`, `description`. | | `models.Settings` | Singleton settings row; `TableName` is `golem15_journal_settings`. | | `models.All` | Models registered by this plugin. | | `updates.All` | gormigrate steps registered by this plugin. | | `classes.CheckHTML` | The `FormatHTML` safety gate for HTML stored as is, such as category content. | ## CLI commands Both commands write JSON files (one per post slug), matching the PHP `journal:export-posts` / `journal:import-posts` tools. They are not a CSV ImportExport framework. A blog application binary registers them through `Plugin.Commands`. | Command | Arguments and flags | Effect | |---------|---------------------|--------| | `journal:export-posts` | `--path` (default `journal-export`), `--dry-run` | Writes one JSON file per post, including non-default-locale translations. Attachments are omitted. | | `journal:import-posts` | `--path` (default `journal-export`), `--force`, `--dry-run` | Creates posts from those files. Existing slugs are skipped unless `--force` updates them. | ```sh ./bin/acme journal:export-posts --path journal-export ./bin/acme journal:import-posts --path journal-export --dry-run ./bin/acme journal:import-posts --path journal-export --force ``` ## Dependencies - SummerCMS modules: backpack, beachcomber, bonfire, cabana, lagoon/attach, pact, party, surf. - Compiled plugin: `golem15.translate`. - Third-party: `gorm.io/gorm`, `github.com/go-gormigrate/gormigrate/v2`, `github.com/yuin/goldmark`, `gocloud.dev`.
