The previous fix only covered migration errors. The same truncation
affected two more places, both because tokio_postgres::Error's Display
prints only "db error" while the real message lives in source():
- api/error.rs: AppError::{db_conn,query,tx} logged with {e}, so every
runtime DB failure showed as "Query failed: db error". The
constructors' bound is tightened from impl Display+Debug to
impl std::error::Error so the source chain can be walked; the
user-facing message stays sanitized (existing tests still pass).
- db/pool.rs: ensure_database formatted tokio_postgres::Error directly
into the String returned to main.rs' exit(1) path, collapsing to
"failed to query pg_database: db error" etc.
Adds a shared crate::db::format_with_sources helper (walks source()
with de-dup of placeholder layers) and reuses it from MigrateError's
Display, the AppError constructors, and pool.rs.
P0 blockers:
- Fix migration numbering conflict and duplicate indexes
- Change comments.post_id FK to ON DELETE CASCADE
- Restrict public post detail endpoint to published posts only
- Fix rate-limiting IP extraction and fallback to ConnectInfo
- Harden HTML sanitizer: deny unknown URL schemes, restrict data URIs
- Remove session token from login response body
- Enforce image pixel/dimension limits on upload and serving
P1 high-risk:
- Validate uploads by magic bytes and decode GIF/WebP
- Add pagination/rate-limiting to search, tag posts, and comments
- Make first-admin registration and slug uniqueness check atomic
- HTML-escape comment author fields
- Improve HTML minify cache key and skip admin/error responses
- Add mobile navigation menu
P2 accessibility/quality:
- Associate form labels with inputs
- Key PostDetail article by slug to re-init scripts on navigation
- Improve image viewer keyboard accessibility
- Make theme toggle SSR-friendly and add aria-label
- Invalidate slug 404 cache on create and pending count on new comment
- Deduplicate tags case-insensitively
P3 cleanup:
- Remove unused tower-http dependency, expand make clean
- Configure DB pool timeouts and verified recycling
- Run background cleanup tasks immediately on startup
- Use SHA-256 for stable disk cache keys
- Log DB errors with Display instead of Debug
- Update README migration instructions
All tests pass (321), clippy clean, dx check clean.
Replace scattered ServerFnError::new("...") inline calls and utils.rs
helper functions with a single AppError enum that provides:
- Automatic tracing::error logging for system errors
- Safe generic messages to frontend (no SQL/connection detail leaks)
- Typed error variants (Unauthorized, Forbidden, NotFound, etc.)
- 5 unit tests for message passthrough and detail hiding
Removes src/api/utils.rs entirely; all error creation now goes through
src/api/error.rs.
