# Pixa Implementation TODO A single linear checklist of tasks to implement the complete pixa caching image reverse proxy server. ## Login, Sessions & Encrypted URLs Feature ### Phase 1: Crypto Foundation - [x] Create `internal/seal/crypto.go` with: - [x] `DeriveKey(masterKey []byte, salt string) ([32]byte, error)` - HKDF-SHA256 key derivation - [x] `Encrypt(key [32]byte, plaintext []byte) (string, error)` - NaCl secretbox encrypt, returns base64url - [x] `Decrypt(key [32]byte, ciphertext string) ([]byte, error)` - NaCl secretbox decrypt from base64url - [x] Create `internal/seal/crypto_test.go` with tests for: - [x] Key derivation produces consistent keys for same input - [x] Encrypt/decrypt round-trip - [x] Decryption fails with wrong key - [x] Decryption fails with tampered ciphertext ### Phase 2: Session Management - [x] Add `github.com/gorilla/securecookie` dependency - [x] Create `internal/session/session.go` with: - [x] `Data` struct: `Authenticated bool`, `CreatedAt time.Time`, `ExpiresAt time.Time` - [x] `Manager` struct using gorilla/securecookie with keys derived via HKDF - [x] `NewManager(signingKey string, secure bool) (*Manager, error)` - [x] `CreateSession(w http.ResponseWriter) error` - creates 30-day encrypted cookie - [x] `ValidateSession(r *http.Request) (*Data, error)` - decrypts and validates cookie - [x] `ClearSession(w http.ResponseWriter)` - clears cookie (logout) - [x] `IsAuthenticated(r *http.Request) bool` - convenience wrapper - [x] Cookie settings: `HttpOnly`, `Secure` (prod), `SameSite=Strict`, name `pixa_session` - [x] Create `internal/session/session_test.go` with tests for: - [x] Session creation and validation round-trip - [x] Expired session rejection - [x] Tampered cookie rejection - [x] Missing cookie returns unauthenticated ### Phase 3: Encrypted URL Generation - [x] Add `github.com/fxamacker/cbor/v2` dependency for compact binary encoding - [x] Create `internal/encurl/encurl.go` with: - [x] `Payload` struct (short CBOR field names, omitempty for fields with sane defaults): - `SourceHost string` (`cbor:"h"`) - required - `SourcePath string` (`cbor:"p"`) - required - `SourceQuery string` (`cbor:"q,omitempty"`) - optional - `Width int` (`cbor:"w,omitempty"`) - 0 = original - `Height int` (`cbor:"ht,omitempty"`) - 0 = original - `Format ImageFormat` (`cbor:"f,omitempty"`) - default: orig - `Quality int` (`cbor:"ql,omitempty"`) - default: 85 - `FitMode FitMode` (`cbor:"fm,omitempty"`) - default: cover - `ExpiresAt int64` (`cbor:"e"`) - required, Unix timestamp - [x] `Generator` struct with URL key derived via HKDF (salt: `"pixa-urlenc-v1"`) - [x] `NewGenerator(signingKey string) (*Generator, error)` - [x] `Generate(p *Payload) (string, error)` - CBOR encode, encrypt, base64url - [x] `Parse(token string) (*Payload, error)` - base64url decode, decrypt, CBOR decode, validate expiration - [x] `(p *Payload) ToImageRequest() *imgcache.ImageRequest` - [x] Create `internal/encurl/encurl_test.go` with tests for: - [x] Generate/parse round-trip preserves all fields - [x] Expired URL returns `ErrExpired` - [x] Malformed token returns error - [x] Tampered token fails decryption ### Phase 4: HTML Templates - [x] Create `internal/templates/templates.go` with: - [x] `//go:embed *.html` for embedded templates - [x] `Get() *template.Template` function - [x] Create `internal/templates/login.html`: - [x] Simple form with password input for signing key - [x] POST to `/` - [x] Error message display area - [x] Tailwind CSS styling - [x] Create `internal/templates/generator.html`: - [x] Logout link at top - [x] Form with fields: Source URL, Width, Height, Format (dropdown), Quality, Fit Mode (dropdown), Expiration TTL (dropdown) - [x] POST to `/generate` - [x] Result display area showing generated URL and expiration - [x] Click-to-copy functionality for generated URL ### Phase 5: Auth Handlers - [x] Create `internal/handlers/auth.go` with: - [x] `HandleRoot() http.HandlerFunc` - serves login form (GET) or authenticates (POST) if not logged in; serves generator form if logged in - [x] `handleLoginPost(w, r)` - validates key with constant-time comparison, creates session on success - [x] `HandleLogout() http.HandlerFunc` - clears session, redirects to `/` - [x] `HandleGenerateURL() http.HandlerFunc` - parses form, generates encrypted URL, renders generator.html with result ### Phase 6: Encrypted Image Handler - [x] Create `internal/handlers/imageenc.go` with: - [x] `HandleImageEnc() http.HandlerFunc` - handles `/v1/e/{token}` - [x] Extract token from chi URL param - [x] Decrypt and validate via `encGen.Parse(token)` - [x] Convert to `ImageRequest` via `payload.ToImageRequest()` - [x] Serve via `imgSvc.Get()` (bypass signature validation - encrypted URL is trusted) - [x] Set same response headers as regular image handler (Cache-Control, Content-Type, etc.) - [x] Handle errors: expired → 410 Gone, decrypt fail → 400 Bad Request ### Phase 7: Handler Integration - [x] Modify `internal/handlers/handlers.go`: - [x] Add `sessMgr *session.Manager` field to `Handlers` struct - [x] Add `encGen *encurl.Generator` field to `Handlers` struct - [x] Initialize session manager and URL generator in `initImageService()` ### Phase 8: Route Registration - [x] Modify `internal/server/routes.go`: -

logout - [x] Add `s.router.Post("/generate", s.h.HandleGenerateURL())` - URL generation - [x] Add `s.router.Get("/v1/e/{token}", s.h.HandleImageEnc())` - encrypted image serving - [x] Add static file serving for Tailwind CSS ### Phase 9: Testing & Verification -
