LICENSE / ONBOARDING

todo: in paralel on rockfish, add client and server code as per below and trial form to fill out by user
	Best way to do this is code it through the steps a new user would take starting with a empty db and trial request
	and work up to a purchase and license

todo: FRESH TRIAL ONBOARD
	setup dev test so it boots cleanly and creates a db as in a new installation
	remove magic dbid value so it just has a normal db id as it would in production	
		Can add back in some kind of automated routine to install license etc when done with onboarding later, for now do it like it will work in practice
	handle auth and new password as spec'd below
	add trial view in client as per specs in client todo doc
	Work it out towards getting a trial key requested, approved, fetched and seeding data

todo: FRESH PURCHASE ONBOARD
	continue on with the steps required to purchase and use in production



TODO: auth route if not licensed at all (not merely expired, but non-existent) then only manager account can login, no one else
	(because there could be other users somehow but no license)

todo: client global biz settings route should no longer return false for trial true for not but instead:
	Return a license state enumeration value
		0 = No license at all of any kind
		1 = trial license key
		2 = purchased license key
	Note: this has nothing to do with whether there is an active license or not, merely that it's of a type
	this is so client can display appropriate UI

todo: Trial request data needs a home in the db and not be erased when data erased so that it can be re-requested without refilling out the form
	Regto name
	email address
	Country
	City
	etc we had before maybe



todo: Rockfish 
	NOTE: this comes *from* RAVEN, not directly from client to Rockfish
	trial request route
	Post contact information and dbid
	if previously exists then checks if email changing 
	or if not previously exists
		Validates email independently
			They need to click on a link to verify their email address

		
todo: rockfish - Email verification route NOTE: used by RAVEN, not directly from client to Rockfish
	validates email already in customer trial account
	triggers notification to *US* at our email address(s) that a new trial has validated email address ready for approval / rejection

todo: rockfish UI list of trial requests open and their state
	email verified or not
	We click a button to accept or reject and can enter additional note for rejection which will be sent with reply
	Rockfish sends a reply to user either saying they are accepted or rejected with reject reason note inserted

todo: rockfish / RAVEN extra info with polling for license
	in addition to license can put a notification into the return data
	so we can contact a customer when we can't email them with a popup notification

todo: RAVEN new job LicenseCheck
	operates all the time on a 20 minute frequency as a built in job but only polls rockfish on schedule below
	Automatically checks rockfish to see if there is a new license available and installs it if found
	
	Rockfish responses:
		No new license, nothing to report: 204 NO CONTENT
		No new license but something to report: 200 OK
			data contains possibly one or more of:				
				NOTIFY: to be sent to the users (right now I can think of for the event of can't contact the customer but need to get a message to them)
				CANCEL LICENSE POLLING: No more license polling with optional reason for user to see
					Used when they have cancelled their subscription and would no longer like to purchase / renew
					Raven makes a note in license table to stop polling
				REVOKE LICENSE: immediately disable the license with notification message
					used when there is fraud or revocation of payment after license was issued
					Raven removes license entirely so it has no license at all
					Store notification message in license table so will be showed at client in RED
		New license returned for installation
			Raven installs the license

	Polling frequency
		If no polling in license table then no polling happens until some other operation clears this flag
		If polling in license table and:
			is unlicensed or expired trial, check on boot and every 30 minutes thereafter
			is active trial or licensed, check on boot and then once every 24 hours thereafter
			
			




TODO: do I really need to not log IP addresses on login?
	check privacy stuff, this seems necessary for security


TODO: restrict server so randos can't login since the client now has all the logins helpfully pre-loaded on it
	not sure how to do that and still support phone via cellular network or other people's wifi from logging in
	Firewall settings I guess of some kind or maybe require a manual edit to the password, like add a 1 to the end of all of them or something?


todo: OPS notification created for failed jobs
	also maybe direct immediate email bypassing generator?
	Add backup fail to this will stub out for now

todo: (BREAK THIS OUT INTO LATER/NOW/CASES) there are several outstanding AUTHENTICATION related cases in rockfish for RAVEN
	e.g. https://rockfish.ayanova.com/default.htm#!/rfcaseEdit/1924
	https://rockfish.ayanova.com/default.htm#!/rfcaseEdit/1835
	https://rockfish.ayanova.com/default.htm#!/rfcaseEdit/1998 <---this is an important case for consideration
	https://rockfish.ayanova.com/default.htm#!/rfcaseEdit/3367 <--time limited accounts for support or temporary access?
	https://rockfish.ayanova.com/default.htm#!/rfcaseEdit/2059 <--- time restricted accounts so user can only login during business hours (still to be considered)
	2fa stuff, some logging and lockout stuff
	Go through the auth related cases and notes in client side and implement or close
	todo: 2fa? (if not in first release, is there something needed to support it in future dbwise?)
	todo: Auth Backdoor reset password feature
		how to code it here, pretty easy to do:
		https://rockfish.ayanova.com/default.htm#!/rfcaseEdit/3250
todo: Look into 2fa
	https://rockfish.ayanova.com/default.htm#!/rfcaseEdit/3395
todo: look into how to use an SSL certificate with the RAVEN server directly when not behind nginx
	https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/fundamentals/servers/kestrel?view=aspnetcore-3.1
	- this should be supported by default out of the box working with Let's encrypt ideally
	- is it now considered ok to host .net core web api directly internet facing?
todo: onboarding and default manager account password
	- Need to come up with a safety plan for this so people don't leave it at default
	- Maybe the very first thing required of a user is to change the password before any tasks can be performed
	- Server stays in safety lock until they set a password?
	- Or maybe a random password is generated on seeding and somehow provided to user through console or something?
	- Maybe an empty db if no other users can be set password only so no one has made a hidden backdoor user account before ops changes it?
	- maybe tied to license if licensed so they bring some info they have from rockfish / their license purchase or something?
	- don't want it to be onerous too much and have some very inexperienced users so...
	- see what other programs do, like our forum software

todo: API docs, make separate page for datalists and remove from api-response-format.md doc but put a reference link to it there.

todo: https, hosting production etc
	https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/security/docker-https?view=aspnetcore-3.1

TODO: When go to full beta trial for people to look at need it to handle simultaneous logins somehow
	maybe they get their own trial instance or something

	
MAYBE
todo: tag refcount
	Move this into a procedure, it's apparently quite slow now that I can see the metrics

todo: add backup master time out setting
	environment variable
	
todo: add switch somewhere to "automatic backup" so can turn off in event of externally done backup
		this will take backup processing out of the generator loop
		but keep the backup ui so even if external, can download the backup files
