feat: the app tells when sync fails, and when it is too old
Published apps can't be made to update, so the app now notices when it no longer matches the server: the server names the oldest app build it works with (instance.info's minimumAppBuild), asked before the first sync of each launch, and the sync engine's refusal of differing synced tables counts the same. Either way the app says "update the app; if it is up to date, the server needs an update" in a banner on Home and in the new Sync card in Settings, and what the person does meanwhile stays on the device. The Sync card shows where sync stands since the app started (syncing, everything synced, sync failing, with the last completion and failure) and offers Sync now. While the last sync failed, a dot sits on the Profile tab and the Settings cog. One sync that goes through clears it.

- **Every client migration keeps a device's rows** (`test/core/sync/device_migration_test.dart` replays each on a database with a row in every synced table of ours; SQLite rebuilds tables to add foreign keys, which Serverpod's runner does with foreign keys off). A new synced table needs a row in that test, which fails until it has one.
|
||||
- **Every synced table indexes `spaceId`** (`indexes: <table>_space_idx: fields: spaceId`, e.g. `studyset.spy.yaml`): deleting a space cascades into every synced table, and Postgres doesn't index foreign keys by itself, so account deletion and pruning would otherwise read whole tables.
|
||||
- **The client's local migration** (in `halkyon_learn_client/lib/migrations/`, written by the same `create-migration`) creates the device's SQLite schema from the whole definition, so it also contains the server's own tables. Only the synced tables and the bookkeeping ever hold data on a device.
|
||||
- **Older apps** can't be made to update once published. Before the first sync of each launch the app asks whether the server still works with its build (`minimumAppBuild` in `instance.info()`, from `lib/src/instance/app_compatibility.dart` in the server; the build is the number after `+` in the app's version), and the sync engine refuses an app whose synced tables differ from the server's. Both end in `AppServerMismatchException` (`core/sync/`), and the app says so: a banner on Home and the Sync card in Settings. Raise `minimumAppBuild` in the commit that breaks older apps (an endpoint they call changes or goes), to the build of the first app that works again; a change to the synced tables needs no raise. Every release raises the build number.
|
||||
- **Where sync stands** is `SyncService.status` (syncing, the last sync that went through, the last failure; since the app started), which `SyncStatusBloc` (`core/sync/`, provided by `PersonApp`) hands to the trouble dot on the Profile tab and the Settings cog, the Sync card in Settings and the banner on Home. Only the last outcome counts: one sync that goes through clears a failure.
|
||||
- **Serverpod's version moves together with `serverpod_offline_sync`**, which pins Serverpod exactly: the root `pubspec.yaml` overrides the four core packages to the project's version. Upgrade Serverpod only together with those overrides and the CLI version CI generates code with (`SERVERPOD_VERSION` in `.forgejo/workflows/ci.yaml`), after reading the sync package's changelog.
|
||||
- **The source-code link**: both licences require offering the source of what an instance runs to the people who use it. `instance.info().sourceCodeUrl` names it (the operator's `SOURCE_URL`, else this project's repository) and the app's About dialog shows it next to the licences and every package's notice. Keep it working when changing the dialog or the endpoint.
|
||||
- **Deleting a person** goes through `deletePerson` (`lib/src/auth/account.dart`), in one transaction and in ADR 0001 rule 6's order: their sessions end first (a device with a valid session would re-upload everything), then their space goes with all its content through the foreign keys, then the person with their identities. `AccountEndpoint.delete` deletes the caller; the app also calls it when an anonymous account is given up (signed out of, or switched away from to GitHub), since nobody could ever sign into it again.
