Synopsis

I am revieweing all direct dependencies of AlekSIS-Core. Priorities:

Describe every dependency and why it is there
Determine whether the dependency is intended for use by apps and thus part of the public API
Qualify which dependencies should be removed/replaced

Dependencies

django-any-js

Reason

Helps keeping JS/CSS asset paths in settings so users are enabled to use their own locally hosted versions, or packagers in e.g. Debian to use the scripts from distribution packages

Recommendations

Document how apps can add assets that are configurable

Reason

Helps with tracing issues and doing performance analysis. Really necessary in development, but helpful on production sites for support reasons.

Recommendations

Discuss whether this should be an optional extra dependency

django-middleware-global-request

Reason

Anti-pattern library to get a request object in places where there shouldn't be one; thus in the course of getting removed.

Recommendations

Get !2100 merged

Reason

Dynamic definition of menues, not perfect, with some todos. But for this release, we do not have anything better.

Recommendations

Document how apps can add menu items and what they should take care of

django-tables2

Reason

Class-based table creation, absolutely necessary.

Recommendations

Document how apps should use forms, views models, and tables, and all of them together

Pillow

Reason

Image processing library; probably used by some other dependency.

Recommendations

Find out why this is a direct dependency, and probably remove.

django-phonenumber-field

Reason

Used in the Person object for phone number validation.

Reason

Dynamic re-generation of CSS after changes to theme preferences.

Recommendations

None

Dynaconf

Reason

Settings generation from environment and config files.

Recommendations

Document how config files and environment variables are handled in the admin manual

django-settings-context-processor

Reason

Adds configured settings values to the template context; currently used for ADMINS and DEBUG.

Recommendations

Too trivial to have a dependency for it. Also, seems like an anti-pattern. The ADMINS list is used in error templates and could be injected from the error views; the DEBUG is only used on the status page and could be injected there.

If wer want to make things like ocnfigured admins availlable as a template API for apps, we should provide selective templatetags for it.

Remove django-settings-context-processor and define better ways to handl the values it passes

django-auth-ldap

Reason

LDAP authentication, optional dependency.

Recommendations

None

django-maintenance-mode

Reason

Show a static page when a maintenance flag is set

Recommendations

None

ipware

Reason

Used by the maintenance mode to determine client IP address independent of proxies, etc.

Recommendations

Discuss whether we need this. If there is a proxy, it probably should handle the maintenance page itself anyway…
Determine whether other parts of AlekSIS could profit from ipware

django-impersonate

Reason

Used in support to see AlekSIS from the view of another user, if superuser privileges are available

Recommendations

Document this in the admin and user parts of the documentation

python-memcached

Reason

Caching backend memcached; not used by default.

Recommendations

Determine whether this should be an optional dependency
Discuss migration to uwsgi caching backend as default

django-hattori

Reason

Pseudonymisation of data via management command

Recommendations

Discuss whether we want to support data pseudonymisation out of the box
- Discuss whether this should be optional
- Discuss whether there should be a frontend

psycopg2

Reason

PostgreSQL driver, necessary.

Recommendations

Document in developer reference that apps can rely on PostgreSQL-only features

django_select2

Reason

Integration of Select2 for multi-part form fields and dynamic select fields

Recommendations

Document in dev reference that apps can and should use it

requests

Reason

Not used in core

Recommendations

Remove (and ensure that apps that currently need it depend on it directly; probably only Exlibris)

django-two-factor-auth

Reason

2FA, obviously. Necessary.

Recommendations

Determine whether we can get it integrated directly with allauth instead
Document use of 2FA in the user manual
Define rules to require 2FA for views or parts of them
- Document htis mechanism in the dev reference

django-yarnpkg

Reason

Define JS dependencies and integratre with colelctstatic, necessary.

Recommendations

Document how to add own JS dependencies for apps in dev reference

Reason

Partial integration of materialize and Django

django-filter

Reason

Filter list views dybamically

Recommendations

Document in dev reference that it can and should be used

django-templated-email and html2text

Reason

used to generate HTML mails and fallback plaintext parts

Recommendations

Document in dev reference that it can and should be used
- Explain why corporate design matters
- Explain why a good plaintext part also matters
Provide base templates for e-mails generated by apps

django-ckeditor

Reason

WYSIWYG fields

Recommendations

Get !2071 merged
Document in dev reference when to use it, and how to do so consistently
- Explain why this can be a security risk, and how to prevent this

django-js-reverse

Reason

Used to pass URL map to JavaScript code

Recommendations

Document in dev reference how to use this

calendarweek

Reason

Mainly used in Chronos for wee kcalculations, and partially for the i18n of the week selector

Recommendations

Discuss whether this is really considered important enough to be in core

Recommendations

Evaluate Bridgekeeper as a replacement
Document in dev reference that it can and should be used
- Best practices
- Security implications
- Legal requirements
