# Database Configuration Schema Design
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
This document outlines the database configuration schema additions for the C Nostr Relay startup config file system. The design follows the Ginxsom admin system approach with signed Nostr events and database storage.
|
||||
|
||||
## Schema Version Update
|
||||
- Current Version: 2
|
||||
- Target Version: 3
|
||||
- Update: Add server configuration management tables
|
||||
|
||||
## Core Configuration Tables
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. `server_config` Table
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
-- Server configuration table - core configuration storage
|
||||
CREATE TABLE server_config (
|
||||
key TEXT PRIMARY KEY, -- Configuration key (unique identifier)
|
||||
value TEXT NOT NULL, -- Configuration value (stored as string)
|
||||
description TEXT, -- Human-readable description
|
||||
config_type TEXT DEFAULT 'user' CHECK (config_type IN ('system', 'user', 'runtime')),
|
||||
data_type TEXT DEFAULT 'string' CHECK (data_type IN ('string', 'integer', 'boolean', 'json')),
|
||||
validation_rules TEXT, -- JSON validation rules (optional)
|
||||
is_sensitive INTEGER DEFAULT 0, -- 1 if value should be masked in logs
|
||||
requires_restart INTEGER DEFAULT 0, -- 1 if change requires server restart
|
||||
created_at INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT (strftime('%s', 'now')),
|
||||
updated_at INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT (strftime('%s', 'now'))
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Configuration Types:**
|
||||
- `system`: Core system settings (admin keys, security)
|
||||
- `user`: User-configurable settings (relay info, features)
|
||||
- `runtime`: Dynamic runtime values (statistics, cache)
|
||||
|
||||
**Data Types:**
|
||||
- `string`: Text values
|
||||
- `integer`: Numeric values
|
||||
- `boolean`: True/false values (stored as "true"/"false")
|
||||
- `json`: JSON object/array values
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. `config_history` Table
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
-- Configuration change history table
|
||||
CREATE TABLE config_history (
|
||||
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
|
||||
config_key TEXT NOT NULL, -- Key that was changed
|
||||
old_value TEXT, -- Previous value (NULL for new keys)
|
||||
new_value TEXT NOT NULL, -- New value
|
||||
changed_by TEXT DEFAULT 'system', -- Who made the change (system/admin/user)
|
||||
change_reason TEXT, -- Optional reason for change
|
||||
changed_at INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT (strftime('%s', 'now')),
|
||||
FOREIGN KEY (config_key) REFERENCES server_config(key)
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. `config_validation_log` Table
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
-- Configuration validation errors log
|
||||
CREATE TABLE config_validation_log (
|
||||
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
|
||||
config_key TEXT NOT NULL,
|
||||
attempted_value TEXT,
|
||||
validation_error TEXT NOT NULL,
|
||||
error_source TEXT DEFAULT 'validation', -- validation/parsing/constraint
|
||||
attempted_at INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT (strftime('%s', 'now'))
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Configuration File Cache Table
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
-- Cache for file-based configuration events
|
||||
CREATE TABLE config_file_cache (
|
||||
file_path TEXT PRIMARY KEY, -- Full path to config file
|
||||
file_hash TEXT NOT NULL, -- SHA256 hash of file content
|
||||
event_id TEXT, -- Nostr event ID from file
|
||||
event_pubkey TEXT, -- Admin pubkey that signed event
|
||||
loaded_at INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT (strftime('%s', 'now')),
|
||||
validation_status TEXT CHECK (validation_status IN ('valid', 'invalid', 'unverified')),
|
||||
validation_error TEXT -- Error details if invalid
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Indexes and Performance
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
-- Performance indexes for configuration tables
|
||||
CREATE INDEX idx_server_config_type ON server_config(config_type);
|
||||
CREATE INDEX idx_server_config_updated ON server_config(updated_at DESC);
|
||||
CREATE INDEX idx_config_history_key ON config_history(config_key);
|
||||
CREATE INDEX idx_config_history_time ON config_history(changed_at DESC);
|
||||
CREATE INDEX idx_config_validation_key ON config_validation_log(config_key);
|
||||
CREATE INDEX idx_config_validation_time ON config_validation_log(attempted_at DESC);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Triggers
|
||||
|
||||
### Update Timestamp Trigger
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
-- Trigger to update timestamp on configuration changes
|
||||
CREATE TRIGGER update_config_timestamp
|
||||
AFTER UPDATE ON server_config
|
||||
BEGIN
|
||||
UPDATE server_config SET updated_at = strftime('%s', 'now') WHERE key = NEW.key;
|
||||
END;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Configuration History Trigger
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
-- Trigger to log configuration changes to history
|
||||
CREATE TRIGGER log_config_changes
|
||||
AFTER UPDATE ON server_config
|
||||
WHEN OLD.value != NEW.value
|
||||
BEGIN
|
||||
INSERT INTO config_history (config_key, old_value, new_value, changed_by, change_reason)
|
||||
VALUES (NEW.key, OLD.value, NEW.value, 'system', 'configuration update');
|
||||
END;

|

### Runtime Statistics
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
INSERT OR IGNORE INTO server_config (key, value, description, config_type, data_type) VALUES
|
||||
-- Runtime statistics (updated by server)
|

('database_size_bytes', '0', 'Database file size in bytes', 'runtime', 'integer');
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration Views
|
||||
|
||||
### Active Configuration View
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
CREATE VIEW active_config AS
|
||||
SELECT
|
||||
key,
|
||||
value,
|
||||
description,
|
||||
config_type,
|
||||
data_type,
|
||||
requires_restart,
|
||||
updated_at
|
||||
FROM server_config
|
||||
WHERE config_type IN ('system', 'user')
|
||||
ORDER BY config_type, key;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Runtime Statistics View
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
CREATE VIEW runtime_stats AS
|
||||
SELECT
|
||||
key,
|
||||
value,
|
||||
description,
|
||||
updated_at
|
||||
FROM server_config
|
||||
WHERE config_type = 'runtime'
|
||||
ORDER BY key;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Configuration Change Summary
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
CREATE VIEW recent_config_changes AS
|
||||
SELECT
|
||||
ch.config_key,
|
||||
sc.description,
|
||||
ch.old_value,
|
||||
ch.new_value,
|
||||
ch.changed_by,
|
||||
ch.change_reason,
|
||||
ch.changed_at
|
||||
FROM config_history ch
|
||||
JOIN server_config sc ON ch.config_key = sc.key
|
||||
ORDER BY ch.changed_at DESC
|
||||
LIMIT 50;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Validation Rules Format
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration validation rules are stored as JSON strings in the `validation_rules` column:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"type": "integer",
|
||||
"min": 1,
|
||||
"max": 65535,
|
||||
"required": true
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"type": "string",
|
||||
"pattern": "^[0-9a-fA-F]{64}$",
|
||||
"required": false,
|
||||
"description": "64-character hex string"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"type": "boolean",
|
||||
"required": true
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Migration Strategy
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Phase 1**: Add configuration tables to existing schema
|
||||
2. **Phase 2**: Populate with current hardcoded values
|
||||
3. **Phase 3**: Update application code to read from database
|
||||
4. **Phase 4**: Add file-based configuration loading
|
||||
5. **Phase 5**: Remove hardcoded defaults and environment variable fallbacks
|
||||
|
||||
## Integration Points
|
||||
|
||||
- **Startup**: Load configuration from file → database → apply to application
|
||||
- **Runtime**: Read configuration values from database cache
|
||||
- **Updates**: Write changes to database → optionally update file
|
||||
- **Validation**: Validate all configuration changes before applying
|
||||
- **History**: Track all configuration changes for audit purposes
