Brian Manifold 27565ea5c8 refactor(portal): remove soft delete elements from portal code (#10607)
Why:

* In previous commits, the portal code had been updated to use hard
deletion rather than soft deletion of data. The fields used in the soft
deletion were still kept in the DB and the code to allow for zero
downtime rollout and an easy rollback if necessary. To continue with
that work the portal code has now been updated to remove any reference
to the soft deleted fields (e.g. deleted_at, persistent_id, etc...).
While the code has been updated the actual data in the DB will need to
remain for now, to once again allow for a zero downtime rollout. Once
this commit has been deployed to production another PR can follow to
remove the columns from the necessary tables in the DB.

Firezone Elixir Development

Before reading this doc, make sure you've read through our CONTRIBUTING guide.

Getting Started

This is not an in depth guide for setting up all dependencies, but it should give you a starting point.

Prerequisites:

  • All prerequisites in the CONTRIBUTING guide
  • Install ASDF and all plugins/tools from .tool-version in the top level of the Firezone repo
  • Install pnpm

From the top level director of the Firezone repo start the Postgres container:

docker compose up -d postgres

Inside the /elixir directory run the following commands:

# Install dependencies
# --------------------
> mix deps.get

# Install npm packages and build assets
# -------------------------------------
> cd apps/web/
> mix setup

# Setup and seed the DB
# ---------------------
> cd ../..
> mix ecto.seed

# Start all of the portal Elixir apps:
# ------------------------------------
> iex -S mix

The web and api applications should now be running:

Stripe integration for local development

Prerequisites:

  • Stripe account
  • Stripe CLI

Steps:

  • Use static seeds to provision account ID that corresponds to staging setup on Stripe:

    STATIC_SEEDS=true mix do ecto.reset, ecto.seed
    
  • Start Stripe CLI webhook proxy:

    stripe listen --forward-to localhost:13001/integrations/stripe/webhooks
    
  • Start the Phoenix server with enabled billing from the elixir/ folder using a test mode token:

    cd elixir/
    BILLING_ENABLED=true STRIPE_SECRET_KEY="...copy from stripe dashboard..." STRIPE_WEBHOOK_SIGNING_SECRET="...copy from stripe cli tool.." mix phx.server
    

When updating the billing plan in stripe, use the Stripe Testing Docs for how to add test payment info

WorkOS integration for local development

Prerequisites:

  • WorkOS account

WorkOS is currently being used for JumpCloud directory sync integration. This allows JumpCloud users to use SCIM on the JumpCloud side, rather than having to give Firezone an admin JumpCloud API token.

Connecting WorkOS in dev mode for manual testing

If you are not planning to use the JumpCloud provider in your local development setup, then no additional setup is needed. However, if you need to use the JumpCloud provider locally, you will need to obtain an API Key and Client ID from the WorkOS Dashboard.

After obtaining WorkOS API credentials, you will need to make sure they are set in the environment ENVs when starting your local dev instance of Firezone. As an example:

WORKOS_API_KEY="..." WORKOS_CLIENT_ID="..." mix phx.server

Acceptance tests

You can disable headless mode for the browser by adding

@tag debug: true
