December 2025 (atviriduomenys) monthly performance summary focusing on delivering secure contract workflows, robust testing, and maintainable architecture across catalogs and spinta services. Key deliveries: - Catalogs (atviriduomenys/katalogas): Implemented INTERNAL_MEDIA_ROOT for contract file uploads, added AgreementFileDownloadView for downloading agreements, and introduced file extension handling with backfill. Added tests for can_view_agreement and improved test stability by adjusting test configuration and disabling CMS toolbar. Cleaned up template variables, translations, and redirect handling to reduce test fragility and runtime errors. Minor but impactful enhancements include correcting the file download URL and enriching changelog coverage. - Spinta (atviriduomenys/spinta): Strengthened authorization boundaries with contract scope checks, per-client contract scopes, and a configurable scope check (check_contract_scopes). Added contract_scope to client APIs and expanded tests around auth.authorized. Refactored manifest synchronization naming to manifest sync for clarity and future maintenance. Overall impact and business value: - Improved data security and access control for confidential contracts, reducing risk of unauthorized access. - More reliable test suites, enabling faster iteration and fewer regressions. - Better maintainability and future-proofing through clear synchronization architecture and data model enhancements. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Django storage handling, secure file delivery, and view-based access control; test framework tuning and settings isolation; template hygiene and i18n; REST/API client scope validation; configuration-driven security checks; and codebase maintainability improvements.
