Summary

Meetups can now be subscribed to as a calendar. Anyone can add https://coders.mu/api/public/meetups.ics to Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, or any .ics-compatible client once and receive new and updated meetups automatically, with no manual re-import. The feed is served from the public API surface and documented alongside the JSON endpoints.

Data model

  • site_settings — a single-row table (id = 1, created with defaults on first use via firstOrCreate) holding admin-editable global config that isn't environment-driven, so it doesn't belong in config/*.ts. Three calendar toggles: master enable, auto-include new events, include past events.
  • events.include_in_calendar — a nullable boolean giving each meetup a tri-state override: null follows the global default, true/false force the meetup in or out. For the occasional event that needs pinning or hiding without touching site-wide behaviour.
  • Event#shouldAppearInCalendar(settings) — one pure method holding the entire precedence order: the global master switch wins first, then the per-event override, then drafts are excluded outright, then past events unless enabled, then the auto-include default. Deliberately free of I/O so the branching can be unit-tested exhaustively without a database or HTTP.

Feed generation

  • CalendarFeedService — builds the VCALENDAR with ical-generator: one VEVENT per eligible meetup carrying summary, description, venue and location, the canonical meetup URL, lastModified, and status. Sets a 1-hour ttl as a client refresh hint; the controller sends Cache-Control: public, max-age=900 and Content-Type: text/calendar; charset=utf-8.
  • Cancelled meetups stay in the feed, carrying STATUS:CANCELLED. That is the mechanism by which a subscriber's client clears an event it already holds — dropping them instead would leave a stale entry on the calendars of exactly the people who planned to attend. This is the one place the feed's contents intentionally differ from the JSON endpoints, which omit anything not published.
  • Timezone correctnessstart_time/end_time are wall-clock strings and event_date is a bare date, neither carrying a zone. Both are pinned to the app TZ with keepLocalTime rather than trusting whatever zone Lucid hydrated them in, so 10:00 means 10:00 in Mauritius even when the server clock is UTC. TZ is read through a validated env var in start/env.ts rather than raw process.env.

Routing and API surface

  • GET /api/public/meetups.ics — the feed sits under /api/public/ so it inherits the open CORS policy in config/cors.ts, which matches on that prefix, and so it is discoverable where API consumers already look.
  • Deliberately unversioned. A subscription URL lives in someone's calendar account indefinitely, and a retired feed fails silently rather than returning an error, so it can never be deprecated the way a versioned JSON endpoint can.
  • Deliberately registered outside the /api/public/v1 group, because forceJsonResponse() rewrites the Accept header, which has no business on a text/calendar route.

Admin

  • Settings page (/admin/settings) — exposes the three calendar toggles plus a copy-to-clipboard feed URL, gated behind a new SiteSettingPolicy and linked from AdminNav.
  • Event create/edit forms — surface the per-event includeInCalendar override as a tri-state control, wired through event_validator and the events controller.

Public site and docs

  • /meetups — a "Subscribe to Calendar" link in the page header, next to the existing admin action.
  • inertia/pages/api-docs.vue — a new "Calendar feed" section documenting the URL, why it is unversioned, and how its contents differ from the JSON endpoints. The status field description now points at that section instead of flatly claiming the API only ever returns published meetups.

Testing infrastructure

  • .env.test and tests/bootstrap.ts — an isolated test database with the memory session driver, sessionApiClient/authApiClient plugins so loginAs() works against Inertia routes, and migrate/seed once globally with each test wrapped in a transaction that rolls back.
  • TESTING.md — documents the conventions: where tests live, the mandatory withGlobalTransaction() hook, how to assert against Inertia responses, and when a rule belongs in a unit test rather than a functional one.

Test plan

  • pnpm test (in packages/frontendmu-adonis) — 18 passed, 741ms. Covers the feed's content type and VCALENDAR envelope, inclusion of an upcoming published meetup, exclusion of an explicitly hidden one, exclusion of drafts, retention of cancelled meetups with STATUS:CANCELLED, the empty-but-valid calendar when the feed is disabled, timezone handling for both derived and explicit end times, and the full authorisation matrix on /admin/settings (anonymous → 302 /login, member → 403, superadmin → 200 with the update persisted).
  • pnpm lint — 12 errors, identical to the count on main. All pre-existing and in files this branch does not touch (safe_return_url.ts, photos_migrate_to_r2.ts, playwright.a11y.config.ts, among others). No new lint errors introduced.
  • pnpm typecheck — 21 errors versus 23 on main, i.e. two fewer. All remaining are the pre-existing Argument of type '[string]' is not assignable to parameter of type 'never' pattern in auth and admin controllers, unrelated to this branch.
  • Confirmed the tracked database/db.local.sqlite3 matches the migration — site_settings has exactly calendar_feed_enabled, calendar_auto_include_new_events, and calendar_include_past_events — with PRAGMA integrity_check returning ok.

Out of scope

  • Per-meetup .ics. An API consumer currently has no way to offer "add this meetup to my calendar" without rebuilding VEVENT generation themselves. A GET /api/public/meetups/:idOrSlug.ics reusing CalendarFeedService would close that gap, left deliberately for a follow-up.

…tings)

- events.include_in_calendar: nullable admin override (auto/show/hide)
- site_settings singleton table: global calendar feed behaviour defaults
- Event#shouldAppearInCalendar(): resolves override vs. site settings
The feed sits under /api/public/ so it is part of the documented public API
surface, but stays unversioned: the URL is pasted into calendar clients and
lives in users' accounts indefinitely, so a v1 in the path could never be
retired without silently breaking every subscriber.
Add an Auto/Show/Hide select on the event create/edit forms so admins
can force-include or force-exclude a specific event from the public
calendar feed, overriding the site-wide defaults.
New /admin/settings page (gated by the existing manage-settings
permission) lets superadmins toggle: master feed enable, auto-include
new events, include past/draft/cancelled events. Shows the feed URL
with a copy button.
- register @japa/api-client + @adonisjs/auth and @adonisjs/session
  japa bridges (loginAs/withSession) in tests/bootstrap.ts
- allow SESSION_DRIVER=memory (already provided out of the box by
  @adonisjs/session) so tests can authenticate via the session guard;
  add .env.test to select it, matching the default 'cookie' driver
  used everywhere else
- disable CSRF enforcement only when app.inTest, since the Japa API
  client has no CSRF-token bridge
- unit: Event#shouldAppearInCalendar override/settings resolution
- functional: /meetups.ics feed content and inclusion rules
- functional: /admin/settings auth, authorization and update flow
The slug fixes threw when neither the source nor the target slug existed,
which is the normal state of a freshly migrated database with no data. Treat
"nothing to fix" as a no-op so the migration can run against an empty schema
(required for the isolated test database), and narrow renameSlugOrThrow's
parameter type to what it actually reads.

Behaviour against real data is unchanged: genuine conflicts still throw.
Point DB_DATABASE at database/db.test.sqlite3 instead of the dev seed
database, and build it from scratch in runnerHooks.setup via
testUtils.db().migrate() + .seed(). Tests no longer depend on the state of
the dev database, and per-test writes still roll back through
withGlobalTransaction().

This follows https://docs.adonisjs.com/guides/testing/resetting-state-between-tests

The dev database picks up the site_settings singleton row (defaults only) so
a fresh clone loads /admin/settings against a persisted row.
Pairs with the existing allowedHosts tailnet entry so the dev server is
reachable from other devices on the network.
Documents how the suite is wired (test-only env, migrate/seed in bootstrap,
per-test transaction rollback), how to write unit vs functional tests against
that setup, the conventions we follow, and the failures that are confusing the
first time you hit them.

Framed as defaults and reasoning rather than rules, with the config files as
the source of truth, so it stays useful as the project grows.

Also fills in the empty Testing section of CODING_GUIDELINES.md with a pointer
to it.
max-w-3xl on the header meant justify-between right-aligned the links against a
48rem row inside the 80rem container, stranding them mid-page on desktop. Move
the constraint to a wrapper around the heading so the action row spans the full
content width and the display type keeps its measure.
start_time is a wall-clock string carrying no zone, so stamping it onto the date
as hydrated made a 10:00 meetup 10:00Z on a UTC server — four hours late for
every subscriber. Pin the date to the meetup timezone with keepLocalTime first.

The tests force Luxon's default zone away from that timezone: with the two
equal, the naive combine is accidentally correct and passes without the fix.
The feed hardcoded Indian/Mauritius while TZ sat in .env read by no code, so two
places answered where meetups happen. Read the zone from TZ instead.

Validate it in start/env.ts: Node degrades an unrecognised zone to UTC without
warning ("Africa/Mauritius" is not IANA), and the feed now derives meetup times
from it, so a typo would shift every event with nothing failing.

Timestamps written under UTC now read four hours earlier; event_date is stored
at midnight, so calendar dates are unaffected.
The feed now lives under /api/public/, so the API docs page is where consumers
will look for it. Notes the two ways its contents differ from the JSON
endpoints: cancelled meetups stay in the feed as tombstones, and the URL is
unversioned on purpose.

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 2307a

The public calendar feed can currently expose draft meetups, fail to remove cancelled events from subscribers’ calendars, lose per-event inclusion settings during unrelated edits, and represent all-day events incorrectly. These are user-visible correctness and data-exposure issues that should be fixed before merging.

Apply draft and cancellation rules before calendar defaults.

Line 156 lets an explicit true publish a draft through the public feed. Line 163 removes a cancelled event after its date when past events are disabled. This prevents calendar clients from receiving the required STATUS:CANCELLED entry.

Reject drafts before evaluating the override. Retain cancelled events unless an explicit false excludes them.

Keep cancelled events after their original date.

Line 34 applies Event.shouldAppearInCalendar. Its supplied implementation excludes past events when calendarIncludePastEvents is false. This also removes cancelled events with no explicit override. A subscriber that refreshes after the original date cannot receive the required STATUS:CANCELLED entry.

Update packages/frontendmu-adonis/app/models/event.ts so a cancelled event remains included before past-event filtering, unless includeInCalendar explicitly excludes it. Add a functional case for a past cancelled event under the default settings.

Comment thread packages/frontendmu-adonis/inertia/pages/api-docs.vue
updateEventValidator marks includeInCalendar optional, so the controller's
`data.includeInCalendar ?? null` turned any partial update that never mentioned
the calendar into a reset of the admin's explicit pin or hide. Unlike the other
optional fields, which pass through as undefined and are ignored by merge, this
one was coerced to a persisted null.
A DATE-valued DTEND is exclusive under RFC 5545 §3.6.1, so an end equal to the
start describes a zero-length event rather than a one-day one. ical-generator
serialises both values verbatim, confirmed against the library, so the fix has
to happen here. Only reachable for meetups with no start_time.
Two claims went stale when the feed was added to this page: the caching section
promised max-age=60 for every response while the feed controller sends 900, and
the feed section said drafts never appear, which the per-event override can
overrule.
