✨ One definition of the import bundle, and the importer validates against it by edulix · Pull Request #2981 · sequentech/step

edulix · 2026-08-07T05:20:18Z

Parent issue: https://github.com/sequentech/meta/issues/12769

1 of 4, base main. Stacked above: #2982 → #2983 → #2988.

The only one of the four that changes existing behaviour. The rest are additions.

Why

Three tools built or checked an election-event import and shared no code: windmill's importer, janitor's Python, the Election Architect's TypeScript. Each had its own bundle schema, CSV byte shapes and validation, and each got them slightly differently. Every defect found while building janitor was one implementation disagreeing with the platform.

What changes


Moved	`ImportElectionEventSchema` and the report types → `sequent-core::election_config`. windmill re-exports both, so its ~10 call sites are untouched. `TryFrom<Row>` stays in windmill: it needs `tokio_postgres`, which cannot compile to WASM.
Reshaped	`keycloak_event_realm` → opaque `serde_json::Value`; `tenant_id` → `String` with a shape check in validation. The `keycloak` crate would pull `reqwest`, `uuid` would pull `getrandom`. No field loses anything, and the export path still runs `parse_uuid_v4`.
New	`election_config::validate` — pure checks returning structured `Problem`s, each with a machine-readable code, a dotted path and the entity's `external_id`. No database, no IO, no clock, because it has to run in a browser.
Wired	windmill validates the bundle as written, before `replace_ids` rewrites identifiers, and refuses the import on anything fatal. The operator gets every problem at once, in the wording the browser-side tools use.
Example	`validate_bundle` — the same call `step-cli` and the browser make, for checking an export from a shell.

The part that deserves scrutiny

Wiring validation into the import path means a bundle that used to import can now be refused — including the platform's own export, re-imported for disaster recovery.

Four rules were fatal and should not have been: a contest with no candidates, a contest not yet on any area's ballot, an area with no contests assigned, and — reported since — an event with no areas at all. An event still being configured legitimately looks like that; those bundles are self-consistent and import into a working event. They just mean nobody votes there yet.


Error	Internally inconsistent, or the platform would reject or corrupt it
Warning	Consistent, but the configuration looks unintended

Authoring tools treat warnings as blocking through a strict mode rather than by lying about severity here. Pinned from both sides by an_event_still_being_configured_can_be_re_imported and an_inconsistent_bundle_is_still_refused.

Verified

sequent-core — 219 passed at keycloak,default_features, in the devcontainer
windmill — 308 passed
cargo fmt --check, reuse lint clean
Against the generated SEIU1000 bundle: 0 errors, 1 warning — the permission label that made every election invisible on that event's first real import

Reading it

Four commits, one thing each: report types moved in → bundle schema moved out of windmill → the shared validation → windmill validating before importing.

Then two from the review: the algorithm list and the preferential split now come from CountingAlgType instead of being written out beside it, negative vote counts are refused rather than passing every relational check, and a report's permission label reports reports[].permission_label instead of pointing at elections. Plus the two boundaries that were untested — an event with no areas, and a fatal bundle failing the import.

Summary by CodeRabbit

New Features
- Added comprehensive election bundle validation for required fields, references, identifiers, contest configuration, ballot coverage, permissions, and scheduling.
- Added structured reports with categorized errors and warnings.
- Added shared election import schemas, report definitions, scheduling, and encryption settings.
- Added a command-line tool to validate bundles and return failure status when errors are found.
Improvements
- Import processing now validates bundles and reports warnings before completion.
- Tenant and realm data are preserved consistently during import and export.

First step of unifying the three tools that build or check an election event import on one shared definition — see meta#12769. Report, ReportCronConfig, ReportType and EReportEncryption move from windmill::postgres::reports and windmill::services::reports::template_renderer into a new sequent-core::election_config module, so that the tools which *write* an import bundle describe reports the same way the importer reads them. windmill re-exports all four, so its ~10 call sites are untouched. The database mapping — ReportWrapper and its TryFrom<Row> — deliberately stays in windmill: it needs tokio_postgres, which has no place in a module that has to compile to WASM. The module is placed in sequent-core rather than beyond because the dependency runs one way. beyond is a git submodule of step and path-depends on this crate, so step cannot depend on beyond; anything windmill must use has to be here. sequent-core also already compiles to WASM and is already vendored into the front ends, so both consumers reach it through paths that already carry production code. Gated on default_features, matching types::hasura whose entities the bundle schema will be built from. The WASM build enables that feature (build_wasm.yml), so the module is present in the browser. Six unit tests cover the wire forms that are part of the file format rather than implementation details: the snake_case encryption policy the reports CSV carries, a cron config surviving an empty object, and permission_label being a list here where Election's is a string.

ImportElectionEventSchema moves out of windmill, so that the tools which write an import bundle describe it the same way the importer reads it. Until now each reproduced it: janitor in Handlebars templates, the Election Architect in a hand-built TypeScript object that was not even the importable shape. windmill re-exports it, so its own call sites are unchanged. Two field types differ, both so the module can compile to WASM for the browser-side tools: tenant_id is a String, not a Uuid. Import replaces it with the importing request's tenant regardless of what it says, and every use here stringified it already. Making it a Uuid would pull that crate into default_features and put getrandom in the WASM build for no benefit. The export path still runs parse_uuid_v4, and validation will report a malformed value as a readable problem rather than an opaque serde error. keycloak_event_realm is a serde_json::Value, not a RealmRepresentation. That type comes from the keycloak crate, which pulls reqwest. Nothing is lost: serde round-trips it exactly, windmill deserializes it into the typed form at the one place it talks to Keycloak, and validating a realm needs a live Keycloak anyway, so it was never something the shared validation could check. Five tests cover what the format guarantees: a minimal bundle deserializes, a missing version falls back to the historical default so old bundles still import, the realm round-trips including keys this crate has never heard of, a missing non-Option field is rejected, and tenant_id survives unaltered so replace_ids can map it. Verified: cargo check clean on sequent-core and windmill, 11 election_config tests pass, windmill's own 235 lib tests pass, rustfmt clean.

The pure half of checking an import bundle: no database, no IO, no clock. That is what lets the same code answer in a browser before an upload and on the server before a transaction, and it is the constraint to keep when adding a rule. Anything needing the database — does this tenant exist, is this area name taken — stays in windmill on top of this pass. validate(&bundle) -> Report, never stopping at the first problem. Each Problem carries a machine-readable Code, a Severity, a dotted path into the bundle, and the entity's external_id where it has one — the UUIDs are regenerated on import and mean nothing to whoever has to fix the source, whereas the external_id is what they typed. Warnings are not lesser errors. A warning says the bundle is self-consistent but probably not what its author meant, and the one that exists today is the expensive one: a permission label hides an entity from every administrator who does not hold it, so an event imports cleanly and then lists nothing. The bundle cannot know who holds what, so it cannot be an error. The rules come from two places — what the importer rejects, and what janitor learned the hard way. The second kind matters more, because those bundles satisfy every type in the schema and still fail on election day: a contest on no area's ballot, a leaf area with no ballot, more winners than candidates, and rankings counted by an algorithm that ignores them. That last one is worth stating plainly: ballot encoding follows the counting algorithm, not voting_type, so a preferential contest counted by plurality-at-large imports cleanly and then reads a voter's rankings as unordered selections. tenant_id's format is checked here rather than by the type, which is what the schema traded away to stay WASM-safe. looks_like_uuid does it by shape rather than by pulling the uuid crate — and therefore getrandom — into the WASM build to inspect a string. 50 tests. Each starts from one bundle that validates cleanly and breaks exactly one thing, so a failure names the rule. Two are about the failure modes of the checks themselves: a negative winning_candidates_num must not wrap into a huge usize and silently pass, and every algorithm in each list is exercised against the voting type it belongs with rather than a sampled few. Related: sequentech/meta#12769 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

windmill now runs sequent-core::election_config::validate on the bundle as written, before replace_ids rewrites the identifiers, and refuses the import if anything fatal turns up. The operator gets every problem at once, in the same wording the browser-side tools will show before an upload. This is additive: the checks that follow need the database, and this pass by design does not touch it. Reclassified ballot coverage from error to warning, which is the part worth scrutiny. Wiring validation into the import path means a bundle that used to import can now be refused — including the platform's own export, re-imported for disaster recovery. A contest with no candidates yet, a contest not yet on a ballot, an area nobody has assigned contests to: an event still being configured legitimately looks like that, and exports of it must round trip. Those bundles are entirely self-consistent and produce a working event; they just mean nobody votes there yet. Refusing them would break recovery in order to enforce a rule about authoring, so they are warnings. The line is now: an error means the bundle is internally inconsistent or would be rejected or corrupted by the platform; a warning means it is consistent but the configuration looks unintended. Authoring tools should treat warnings as blocking, and step-cli and the SPAs will do that with a strict mode rather than by lying about the severity here. Two tests pin the line from both sides. Adds a validate_bundle example, the same call step-cli and the browser will make, for checking a real export from a shell. Run against the generated SEIU1000 bundle it reports 0 errors and 1 warning — the permission label that made every election invisible on the first real import. The Rust validator and janitor's Python rules independently reach the same verdict on real data, which is the point of sharing them.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds shared election bundle schemas, report types, structured validation, validation tests, and a command-line validator. Windmill import and export paths now use the shared models and validate bundles before persistence.

Changes

Election bundle validation

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Shared bundle and report contracts `packages/sequent-core/src/lib.rs`, `packages/sequent-core/src/election_config/*`, `packages/sequent-core/src/types/ceremonies.rs`	Adds the public import-bundle schema, report models, serialization behavior, default version handling, counting-algorithm metadata, and module exports.
Validation rules and reports `packages/sequent-core/src/election_config/problem.rs`, `packages/sequent-core/src/election_config/validate.rs`, `packages/sequent-core/src/election_config/validate_tests.rs`	Adds aggregated errors and warnings for identity fields, references, area cycles, contest settings, ballot coverage, permission labels, duplicate IDs, and UUID formatting.
Import, export, and report integration `packages/windmill/src/services/import/import_election_event.rs`, `packages/windmill/src/services/export/export_election_event.rs`, `packages/windmill/src/postgres/reports.rs`, `packages/windmill/src/services/reports/template_renderer.rs`	Windmill reuses shared schemas and report types. Imports validate bundles before ID replacement and convert string or JSON fields before persistence.
Bundle validation example `packages/sequent-core/examples/validate_bundle.rs`	Adds a command-line executable that validates a JSON bundle, prints the report, and exits with status 1 when errors exist.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk:⚪ Minimal · up to f248f

Three findings from CodeRabbit on #2981, all real. **The algorithm list was written twice.** `COUNTING_ALGORITHMS` spelled out the ten serde renames of `CountingAlgType`, and `PREFERENTIAL_ALGORITHMS` spelled out what `is_preferential` answers — with doc comments admitting both. The list is now `CountingAlgType::VARIANTS`, by way of a `VariantNames` derive, and the mismatch check asks `is_preferential()` instead of a second list. The review suggested validating through `CountingAlgType::from_str`, and that one step I did not take: the enum is `#[strum(ascii_case_insensitive)]`, so parsing first would accept `Borda` — which Rust reads correctly and `ICountingAlgorithm` in `ui-core`, which compares the string, does not. So the value is matched exactly and *then* parsed: the enum says which algorithms exist, and validation says they have to be spelled the way the platform spells them. `PREFERENTIAL_ALGORITHMS` stays spelled out because the browser is handed a `&'static [&'static str]` and `is_preferential` cannot be called in a const — with a test that fails the moment the two disagree, in both directions. The voting types are named constants now rather than string literals inline in the match arms. **Negative counts passed validation.** Every rule about `min_votes`, `max_votes` and `winning_candidates_num` is a comparison — `min > max`, `winners > available` — and -1 satisfies all of them, so a contest asking for minus one winner imported. The column is a signed integer and takes it. There is a floor now, and the test that used to assert only "nothing wrapped" — which quietly documented the hole — asserts the refusal for all three fields. Zero is still allowed: a contest a voter may abstain in has `min_votes` 0. **A report's label reported the wrong path.** The permission-label warning was pinned to `elections[].permission_label` while it also collects labels from `bundle.reports`, so a bundle whose only labelled entity is a report sent somebody to the elections screen, where there is nothing to change. One warning per source collection now. 218 sequent-core tests, 306 windmill, fmt and the feature gates clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The nitpick from the same review, and both gaps are real. **An event with no areas was an untested rule.** `check_identity` refuses it — every voter belongs to an area, so a bundle with none imports an event nobody can be enrolled in — and its sibling for `elections` had a test while this did not. **Nothing asserted that a problem actually stops an import.** `election_config`'s suite covers what counts as fatal; `check_bundle` refusing one was covered by reading the code. Two tests at the importer boundary now: a bundle with no areas does not import and the error names the fault, and the same bundle with that one fault repaired gets through the gate and comes back with remapped ids. The invalid bundle is built in the test file on purpose; a *sound* one is not. A second copy of the sound fixture is the duplication this whole change exists to remove, and `election_config::fixtures` — the shared fixture both callers read — arrives in #2982, which is where windmill's warning-only case belongs. One thing the review asked for that no test can assert: that validation runs *before* `replace_ids`. It does, and the reason is in the comment on `check_bundle`, but the ordering has no observable difference in the report today — `Problem::path` carries collection indices and `about` carries an `external_id`, and remapping rewrites neither. 219 sequent-core tests, 308 windmill.

On the nitpick (import_election_event.rs, "add regression coverage for the remaining validation boundaries") — both gaps were real, addressed in 89eac0b:

Empty areas reports MissingField — an_event_with_no_areas_is_rejected. The rule was there and its sibling for elections had a test while this did not.

A problem actually stops an import — two tests at the importer boundary, which had none at all: a_fatal_bundle_does_not_import (a bundle with no areas fails get_election_event_schema, and the error names the fault) and a_bundle_whose_fault_is_fixed_gets_through (the same bundle with that one fault repaired passes the gate and comes back with remapped ids). Asserted as a pair so it says this is what the refusal was about, rather than that the fixture is somehow unacceptable.

Two notes on how I scoped it:

The invalid bundle is built in the test file; a sound one is not. A second copy of the sound fixture is exactly the duplication this PR exists to remove. election_config::fixtures — the shared fixture both callers read, so the browser and the server agree on the same cases — arrives in ✨ Build an importable election event from a workbook, in the shared core #2982, and windmill's warning-only-with-remapped-ids case belongs there, on top of it, rather than here on top of a copy.
"Fatal validation stops processing before ID replacement" cannot be asserted, only read. It is true (check_bundle is the line above replace_ids) and the reason is on the function, but the ordering has no observable consequence in the report today: Problem::path carries collection indices (contests[0].election_id) and about carries an external_id, and remapping rewrites neither. A test claiming to prove the ordering would be asserting something else and passing for the wrong reason.

Stack updated: 219 sequent-core tests and 308 windmill here, 906 sequent-core at the top of the stack, cargo fmt --check and every feature gate clean.

`CLAUDE.md` asks for no explanatory notes or history in the source, and the review was right that the comments I added were mostly that: what the code used to do, which test used to assert what, why a list was written twice. That belongs in the commit message, which already has it. What stays is the part a reader needs and cannot see: - why `counting_algorithm` is matched exactly *before* it is parsed — `from_str` is `ascii_case_insensitive` and `ICountingAlgorithm` in `ui-core` compares by value; - why `PREFERENTIAL_ALGORITHMS` is still spelled out — the browser is handed a `&'static [&'static str]` and `is_preferential` is not a const fn; - why the count floor has to be stated — the fields are signed and every other rule about them is relational; - why the label warning is per collection — `Problem::path` is where the entity is; - why the negative-`max_votes` case is exempt from the no-wraparound assertion; - why the windmill fixture is deliberately unsound. 219 sequent-core tests, 308 windmill, unchanged.

Reported: an election event with no areas would not import. It should. The bundle is consistent and the platform takes it — it just means no voter can be given a ballot yet, which is the same shape as the three ballot-coverage rules this branch already downgraded: a contest with no candidates, a contest on no area's ballot, an area with no contests. An event still being configured looks like this, and so does the platform's own export of one, which has to re-import for recovery. `Code::MissingField` is documented as "a required field is absent or empty", and areas are no longer required, so the code moves to `BallotCoverage` — "something that would be on a ballot is not" — beside its three siblings. The windmill importer test used this exact case as its fatal example, so it now uses a contest pointing at an election that is not in the bundle.

The test asserted no errors and a `BallotCoverage` warning, which an implementation emitting both codes would also satisfy. Areas are not a required field any more, so the absence of `MissingField` on that path is part of the behaviour and is asserted. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Two lists that had to agree with the platform and were written out again beside it — the same fault as the counting algorithms in #2981, and the same fix. **`EVENT_PROCESSORS` is gone.** `event_processor` parses through `EventProcessors::from_str` and returns the typed value, so the eleven strings are the enum's `strum` spellings and nothing else. The fuzzy normalisation authors rely on — "start voting period", "start-voting-period" — happens before the parse, as it did. `check_voting_windows` compares variants instead of string literals. **`scheduled_event_task_id` is gone too.** Its own doc said it "mirrors `generate_manage_date_task_name`… reproduced rather than approximated", and the template beside it warns that a different shape means a task that never fires. It calls the platform's function now. The two tests that asserted the exact task name still assert it, so they pin the scheduler's shape rather than the copy's. `EventProcessors` gains `EnumIter`, which is what lets the "expected one of" message name the variants instead of a list beside them. 577 sequent-core tests, fmt clean, and the emitted CSV is unchanged — the task-name assertions are byte-for-byte what they were.

The bottom of this stack — "One definition of the import bundle" — is on main now, as a squash. That is why six files conflicted with no real disagreement in them: main has `problem`, `report`, `schema` and `validate` from that squash, and this branch has the same content plus everything the four commits above it added, so ours is a strict superset. Checked rather than assumed: `git diff ded5be6..origin/main` over `election_config` and `types/ceremonies.rs` is **empty**, so nothing on main has touched those files since the squash and there is nothing of theirs to lose. Taking ours for all six. 948 tests (main brings ten), step-cli green, the wasm feature builds, `cargo fmt --check` clean. Refs: meta#12769
