Closes #150

What

A repeater on a contact now reads like a log. The last entry added sits on top, with its date above its text. One form above the list adds the next entry, and its dates start on today.

Each entry can be edited in place or removed. Removing asks on the row first. Every change is stored at once, so a repeater has no Save button.

Behind this, each entry has its own id. Three new mutations add, edit and remove one entry. writeContactFields refuses a repeater with field_repeater_entries_only. A migration gives the stored entries their ids. ALPHONE_FIELDS_ENTRIES_MAX caps a list, 500 by default.

The list comes from godmin 0.11.0, and its dates show through gottext 0.5.1.

Why

Saving the whole list meant two people could overwrite each other's entries. The open editor also felt heavy next to the task list.

Testing Instructions

  1. Run make seed, then make demo, and sign in at http://localhost:8080 as admin@example.com with password1234.
  2. Open the contact Maria Perez. History lists three entries, the Sep 18 one on top.
  3. Add an entry with a comment on two lines. It shows on top with both lines, and the form goes back to today.
  4. Press Edit entry on the Sep 1 entry, change its comment and press Save entry. The row shows the new comment.
  5. Press Remove entry, then Keep. Nothing changes. Press Remove entry again, then Remove. The entry is gone.
  6. Open the same contact in a second tab. Add an entry in each tab, then reload. Both entries are there.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Manage repeater entries individually: add, edit, or remove entries from a contact’s Fields panel. Entries appear newest first, and new entries default to today’s date.
    • Repeater changes save immediately; ordinary fields continue to use Save fields.
    • Add, update, and delete repeater entries through the GraphQL API. Repeater values cannot be submitted through the standard field-values API.
    • Configure a per-contact repeater limit, defaulting to 500 entries. Blank entries and additions beyond the limit are rejected.
  • Documentation
    • Updated the fields, GraphQL API, and self-hosting guides with entry management, validation, and limit details.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The fields plugin now stores repeater values as identified entries that can be added, edited, and removed individually. The change adds GraphQL mutations, entry validation and storage, a configurable entry limit, a log-style contact interface, a migration for existing entries, and updated tests and documentation.

Changes

Repeater entry workflow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Entry validation, IDs, and limits
plugins/fields/field.go, plugins/fields/value.go, plugins/fields/fields.go, plugins/fields/migrations/*, plugins/fields/seed.go, plugins/fields/entriescap_internal_test.go, plugins/fields/migration_internal_test.go, .env.example, docs/src/content/docs/self-hosting/configuration.md
The plugin reserves id for entry IDs, validates entries individually, migrates existing entries to include IDs, and reads ALPHONE_FIELDS_ENTRIES_MAX. The limit defaults to 500. Seeding adds identified history entries.
GraphQL mutations and entry storage
graph/schema.graphql, graph/generated.go, plugins/fields/graph/schema.graphqls, plugins/fields/entries.go, plugins/fields/store.go, plugins/fields/graphql.go, plugins/fields/*test.go, internal/postgres/*
GraphQL adds entry add, update, and delete mutations. The plugin stores entries newest-first, scopes mutations by tenant and contact, enforces the cap, and maps validation and storage errors.
Contact repeater interface
plugins/fields/frontend/*, plugins/fields/languages/*, frontend/package.json, sdk/frontend/*
The contact panel displays repeater entries separately from ordinary fields. It supports adding entries, inline editing, and confirmed removal. The frontend includes typed cell conversion, mutation handling, focus behavior, translations, and tests.
Validation, integration, and documentation
test/e2e/tests/fields-repeater.spec.ts, test/features/features/fields-*.feature, test/features/steps_fields_*.go, test/features/world_test.go, docs/src/content/docs/guides/fields.md, docs/src/content/docs/reference/graphql-api.md, cmd/alphone/main_exec_test.go
Tests cover entry IDs, ordering, validation, tenant isolation, mutation behavior, and rejection through writeContactFields. The guides and API reference describe the new operations, errors, and entry limit.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to cd2bb

No outstanding issue identified in the supplied evidence blocks merging after normal checks.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to cd2bb

Entry writes appear to retain contact-write permissions and tenant isolation. However, an existing field definition can block the data migration, and retrying an add after a lost response can create a duplicate entry. Whether affected definitions exist in deployed data is unknown.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · reliability · inferred: The migration rejects a repeater definition with an existing sub-field named id, preventing that database from completing the entry-ID upgrade until the definition is addressed. Whether deployed tenants have such definitions is unknown.
  • Low · reliability · inferred: If an add commits but its response is lost, retrying it creates a second entry with a new ID and consumes another slot under the configured cap.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — A caller permitted to write contacts can target entries in a contact's fields, but the new storage statements constrain the target to the active tenant and selected contact row.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The mutation contract requires the same contacts-write scope as the existing field write. Entry storage takes its tenant from request context and matches it in SQL rather than accepting a tenant ID from mutation arguments.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — The cap bounds persisted entries per repeater, including under concurrent adds, but a committed add repeated after an interrupted response can consume further capacity.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Check deployed definitions for the reserved id name before rollout, and define retry semantics for entry creation if clients may resend an unacknowledged mutation.

RetriggerConfidence Score: 4/5

[High risk] Adds repeater entry management to the fields plugin.

Not ready to merge: an existing repeater definition with an id subfield can prevent the migration from completing. The remaining entry-form issue is non-blocking.

  2. P2 Unchecked entries cannot be added ▶
Fix with agent prompt
### Issue 1
plugins/fields/migrations/00006_add_repeater_entry_ids.sql:4-5
If a stored repeater definition has a subfield named `id`, this new constraint rejects a row that earlier migrations permitted, even when the definition is archived. The migration fails before entries can be updated, so an affected installation cannot complete its upgrade. Existing definitions need a safe migration path before this constraint is added.

### Issue 2
plugins/fields/frontend/entries.ts:64-66
For a repeater with only a yes-or-no subfield, an initially unchecked box leaves Add disabled because no value has been recorded in `picked`. The server accepts `false`, but the operator must check and then uncheck the box to save it. This non-blocking issue adds an unexpected step to a valid entry.

Note: If this suggestion doesn't match your team's coding style, reply to this and let me know. I'll remember it for next time!

For each issue above, determine whether it is valid and should be fixed. If so, fix it directly.
Summary

The PR changes contact repeaters to individually identified entries with add, edit, and remove actions, a storage migration, an entry cap, and a newest-first interface. Recent changes make demo seeding fit small caps. No new findings are reported. An earlier migration issue still needs attention before merging.

P1 Existing definitions block upgrades

If a stored repeater definition has a subfield named id, this new constraint rejects a row that earlier migrations permitted, even when the definition is archived. The migration fails before entries can be updated, so an affected installation cannot complete its upgrade. Existing definitions need a safe migration path before this constraint is added.

Knowledge Base Used: Custom fields plugin

Artifacts

Executed migration reproduction script

  • The script creates a previously permitted repeater definition and applies the new migration.

Definition accepted before migration

  • PostgreSQL accepted the archived repeater definition with an `id` subfield under the earlier migrations.

Migration rejected existing definition

  • PostgreSQL rejected the new constraint while the previously stored definition remained.

P2 Unchecked entries cannot be added

For a repeater with only a yes-or-no subfield, an initially unchecked box leaves Add disabled because no value has been recorded in picked. The server accepts false, but the operator must check and then uncheck the box to save it. This non-blocking issue adds an unexpected step to a valid entry.

Knowledge Base Used: Custom fields plugin

Artifacts

Executed rendered-form test source

  • The test renders the add form and checks submission before and after toggling its checkbox.

Rendered-form test results

  • The passing assertions show Add disabled initially and a false entry submitted after two checkbox clicks.

Executed server validation test source

  • The test checks whether the server accepts false and rejects the untouched draft's null value.

Server validation test results

  • The passing test confirms that false is accepted while the untouched null draft is considered empty.
