Kevin L'Hereec 6053290501 feat: paginate pc-builder.io scraping and always keep the best known price
Build & Deploy / build (push) Failing after 5s
Build & Deploy / docker (push) Skipped
The RTX 5070 case that prompted this: only 100 GPUs out of pc-builder.io's
actual 6222 were being scraped (its category pages only render the first
page server-side), so cheaper RTX 5070 variants existed on the site but
were invisible to our search. Investigating further also surfaced that
even with full pagination, most recent GPU listings (RTX 5070 included)
have no fixed Amazon price on pc-builder.io at all - just a generic
"search on Amazon" link - so pagination alone doesn't fully solve price
coverage either.

Pagination (part_scraper_service.ts):
- Reverse-engineered pc-builder.io's /products/data endpoint, which powers
  the client-side DataTables widget behind every category page. Requires
  a session cookie + CSRF token scraped from a fresh category page load,
  and an exact field shape (columns[].data must be the literal strings
  "Name"/"Add to Build", not numeric indices - a naive DataTables-shaped
  request 500s otherwise).
- CATEGORY_CONFIG now tracks each category's real pc-builder.io
  category_id and a per-category maxProducts depth, chosen by actual
  catalog size and price-sensitivity: GPU near-full coverage (6000),
  smaller/less price-volatile categories capped lower (300-800) to keep a
  full `scrape:parts` run (all categories) in a reasonable time.
- ensureFreshCategory (triggered inline by a user's search when the cache
  is stale) uses a much shallower QUICK_REFRESH_MAX_PRODUCTS=200 cap
  instead of the category's full depth, since it runs inside the
  request/response cycle of a search - full-depth coverage is only done
  by the standalone `scrape:parts` command.

Always keep the best known price:
- scraped_parts.price is now nullable (migration): parts with no fixed
  pc-builder.io offer are kept and searchable instead of being silently
  skipped, so at least the model is discoverable even before a price is
  resolved.
- New price_source / price_checked_at columns track where the currently
  stored price came from ("pc-builder.io" or a merchant name from
  merchant_price_service.ts).
- ScrapedPartsController#compare now persists the cheapest offer found
  (via the new updatePriceIfCheaper()) when it beats the currently stored
  price - so comparing prices benefits every future search/import for
  that part, not just the user who triggered it. Never regresses the
  price: a comparison finding a higher price than what's stored is
  ignored.
- scrapeComponentType's catalog refresh applies the same "keep whichever
  price is lower" rule per row, so a routine pc-builder.io re-scrape can
  never overwrite a better price a comparison had already found and
  persisted with a worse (or missing) one.
- Search results (GET /scraped-parts) are now ordered priced-cheapest-first,
  then parts with no known price last (`ORDER BY price IS NULL, price ASC`),
  so unpriced parts stay visible without pushing priced results down.
- NewPartSearch.vue displays the catalog price inline (or "No price yet"),
  and the existing "Compare prices" flow now works for those unpriced
  parts the same way it does for priced ones.

7 new/updated functional tests: nullable price is searchable and sorted
last, and 3 tests for updatePriceIfCheaper (cheaper offer replaces price,
pricier offer is ignored, first-ever price is accepted for a previously
unpriced part).

Kevin L'Hereec 62ec796e05 fix: repair broken CSP and compare live merchant prices for new parts
Build & Deploy / build (push) Failing after 4s
Build & Deploy / docker (push) Skipped
CSP fix:
- The previous shield.ts config used '@viteDevUrl'/'@viteHmrUrl' CSP
  keywords that don't exist in this version of @adonisjs/shield (only
  '@viteUrl' is registered by @adonisjs/vite, and it resolves to an empty
  string here since Vite assets are proxied through AdonisJS on the same
  origin). Both placeholders were sent to the browser literally, breaking
  Google Fonts, the Vite HMR websocket, and pc-builder.io/favicon images.
- Replaced with concrete directives: 'self' covers same-origin Vite
  assets, ws://localhost:{VITE_HMR_PORT|24678} is added only in dev for
  the HMR socket, and explicit allowlists for Google Fonts
  (fonts.googleapis.com/fonts.gstatic.com), pc-builder.io product images,
  and Google's favicon service (www.google.com) used by the merchant
  comparison UI

Real purchase links + live price comparison:
- part_scraper_service.ts: ScrapedPart.sourceUrl now stores the actual
  Amazon.fr purchase link scraped from pc-builder.io's category pages
  (https://www.amazon.fr/dp/{ASIN}?tag=... or a search fallback), instead
  of the pc-builder.io product page, which isn't a place anyone can buy
  anything from
- New merchant_price_service.ts: on-demand live price lookup across
  Amazon, LDLC, Grosbill and TopAchat. Of 6 requested merchants,
  Materiel.net (search requires JS/Turbo, no results via plain GET) and
  Cdiscount/PCComponentes (empty body / 403) were dropped as not scrapable
  without a headless browser or paid API
- Matching strategy: pc-builder.io's full product names (e.g. "AMD Ryzen 3
  3200G 3.6 GHz Quad-Core Processor") return zero results on every
  merchant's search engine, so we search on a short brand+series query
  and then pick the specific result whose label contains the extracted
  model token (e.g. "3200G"). No token match means no offer returned,
  rather than risk quoting the price of a different, unrelated product
- Fixed price parsing for LDLC/Grosbill, which render prices as nested
  price/sup elements for whole euros vs cents (and LDLC additionally
  wraps that in a duplicate outer .price div) - naive text concatenation
  was misreading "64,95" as "6495"
- New GET /scraped-parts/compare endpoint (authenticated), called on
  demand per search result rather than for every row, since it makes
  several outbound requests and can take a few seconds
- NewPartSearch.vue: "Compare prices" button per result shows the
  cheapest merchant with its favicon and links to the actual offer;
  importing a part now prefers the live cheapest price/link over
  pc-builder.io's potentially stale catalog price (confirmed stale in
  practice: pc-builder.io listed a Ryzen 3 3200G at 128 euros while
  Amazon sells it for 66.89 euros)
- 3 new functional tests for the compare endpoint (auth required, 404 on
  unknown part, 422 on invalid id)

Kevin L'Hereec 4174d92711 feat: track purchase site URL for new components
Build & Deploy / build (push) Failing after 4s
Build & Deploy / docker (push) Skipped
- New nullable purchase_url column on components
- Store/update validators accept an optional purchaseUrl (must be a valid
  absolute URL with a protocol when provided)
- components/create.vue: NewPartSearch import now also fills purchaseUrl
  from the scraped part's source URL (pc-builder.io product page); the
  field remains manually editable for second-hand parts entered by hand
- components/edit.vue: purchaseUrl is editable after creation
- components/show.vue: displays the purchase site as a clickable link
  when present
- 4 new functional tests: create with/without a purchase URL, invalid URL
  rejected (asserts the Inertia inputErrorsBag flash, not a raw 422 -
  content negotiation only returns JSON for XHR/API-style requests), and
  updating an existing component's purchase URL

Kevin L'Hereec 497ae797ca feat: add 24h cache freshness with auto-refresh on search
Build & Deploy / build (push) Failing after 5s
Build & Deploy / docker (push) Skipped
- part_scraper_service.ts: new CACHE_TTL_HOURS (24), isCategoryStale()
  checks the most recent scrapedAt for a given ComponentType's mapped
  category, ensureFreshCategory() re-scrapes it synchronously if missing
  or stale (errors are logged, not thrown, so search still falls back to
  whatever is already cached)
- ScrapedPartsController#index: when a typeId filter is provided, the
  corresponding category cache is refreshed eagerly if stale before
  querying results. Free-text searches without a typeId skip this to
  avoid re-scraping every mapped category on every keystroke -
  'node ace scrape:parts' still refreshes everything at once on demand
- 4 new tests covering staleness detection (missing cache, <24h, >24h)
  and that unmapped types never trigger a scrape/network call

Kevin L'Hereec 5854ff8ed1 feat: search and import new parts scraped from pc-builder.io
Build & Deploy / build (push) Failing after 4s
Build & Deploy / docker (push) Skipped
Idealo and PCPartPicker were evaluated and ruled out:
- idealo.fr search pages return 503 (Cloudflare)
- the internal Idealo GraphQL endpoint used by a public scraper
  (app.idealo.de/app-backend/api) is protected by Akamai Bot Manager and
  silently returns empty data even with mobile app headers
- PCPartPicker's product list/search relies on a session-bound CSRF token
  refreshed per page load, against a scraping-hostile ToS

pc-builder.io category pages are server-rendered, include name/price/image
for ~100 products per category, and have no bot protection, so the feature
is built on top of that source only.

- New scraped_parts cache table (type_id, name, price, image_url, source,
  source_url, source_ref unique per source) populated by a batch job
  rather than scraped live per search, since only ~100 first results per
  category are available without reverse-engineering pc-builder.io's
  DataTables/CSRF pagination flow
- part_scraper_service.ts: maps our ComponentType names to pc-builder.io
  category slugs (SSD -> storage, since pc-builder.io has no separate HDD
  category) and parses each category page with cheerio, skipping rows
  without a resolved price (generic 'search on Amazon' links)
- node ace scrape:parts: refreshes the cache for every mapped category
  (upsert on source+source_ref), runnable manually or later via cron
- GET /scraped-parts (authenticated): search the cache by name (LOWER()
  LIKE, avoids a MySQL utf8_bin/utf8mb4 collation mismatch from Lucid's
  whereLike) and optional typeId filter
- NewPartSearch.vue: debounced search widget wired into
  components/create.vue; clicking 'Import' pre-fills the existing
  component creation form (name, price, type, purchase date = today)
  instead of creating the Component directly, so the user still reviews
  and saves it like any manually entered part
- 3 functional tests covering search by name, filter by typeId, and
  unauthenticated access being redirected to login
- Initial scrape run: 989 parts across 10 categories

Kevin L'Hereec da71d33450 feat: add public read-only sharing for computers
Build & Deploy / build (push) Failing after 5s
Build & Deploy / docker (push) Skipped
Adds the ability for an owner to share a computer build via a public,
unauthenticated link, inspired by a feature request from the original
pcbuilder repo (no such feature actually existed there — implemented
from scratch here).

- New columns on computers: share_token (unique, nullable), share_enabled,
  share_show_sell_price, share_show_cost
- computer_share_service.ts: generates a non-guessable share token
  (crypto.randomBytes, base64url), enables/disables sharing, and supports
  rotating the token to invalidate previously distributed links
- ComputerShareController (authenticated, owner-scoped like the rest of
  the app): PUT /computers/:id/share to update settings, POST
  /computers/:id/share/rotate to rotate the token
- PublicComputerController + GET /share/:token (outside any auth/guest
  group, reachable anonymously): resolves only computers with
  share_enabled = true, 404 otherwise
- ComputerPublicTransformer: dedicated read-only projection that never
  leaks userId, and only includes sellPrice/cost when the owner opted in
  via share_show_sell_price / share_show_cost — everything else (title,
  scores, state, components, pictures) is always visible on a shared link
- ComputerShareModal.vue: owner-facing UI (toggle sharing, choose which
  prices to expose, copy the public link, revoke/rotate it) wired into
  computers/show.vue via a new 'Share' button
- share/show.vue: public page rendered with EmptyLayout (no authenticated
  header/sidebar)
- Boolean columns use a  cast since MySQL returns tinyint(1),
  not native booleans, through Lucid
- 6 new functional tests covering: enabling sharing, price visibility
  toggles, disabling sharing revokes the link, cross-user protection on
  the share settings endpoint (404), token rotation invalidating the old
  link, and anonymous access to a shared computer

Kevin L'Hereec 562cea39de test: add functional regression tests for IDOR fixes (Phase 4)
- Add @japa/api-client devDependency (was missing despite being required
  for the 'client' fixture used in functional tests)
- Wire up sessionApiClient/authApiClient/shieldApiClient plugins in
  tests/bootstrap.ts so tests can authenticate (loginAs) and pass CSRF
  validation (withCsrfToken)
- Wrap each functional test in a global DB transaction (withGlobalTransaction)
  for isolation and rollback
- Add .env.test with SESSION_DRIVER=memory: the cookie session driver used
  in dev/prod is incompatible with Japa's session test client, which needs
  a store it can read/write by session id
- tests/functional/computers.spec.ts: covers owner can update; a user
  cannot update/delete another user's computer (404); a user cannot
  attach another user's component via componentsId (404); two components
  of the same unique type cannot be attached (422); deleting a computer
  detaches its components instead of destroying them
- tests/functional/components.spec.ts: covers owner can update; a user
  cannot update/delete another user's component (404); an unauthenticated
  request cannot delete a component (redirects to /auth/login)

All 10 tests pass, exercising the security fixes from commit 3cc189c.
