Consider caching the effective duration in the session cookie with a short TTL (e.g. 60s) and revalidating in the background. - **Double session commit in `root.tsx`**: `getUser` already runs the expiry check; then `commitAuthenticatedSessionLazy` commits the cookie again. Fine, but doubles `Set-Cookie` headers on every page load — worth a quick perf check. ## Correctness / Edge cases - **Lazy backfill assumes a root.tsx hit first**: users whose first post-deploy request is a fetcher/API route (`/resources/*`) skip the backfill until they navigate to a page. Not a security hole, but `getUserId` could backfill itself for completeness. - **No upper bound on `Organization.maxSessionDuration`**: admin API accepts `1` second, which would instant-logout every member on next request. Add a `min(60)` (or `min(300)` to match the lowest user option) to the Zod schema. - **No clock-skew tolerance**: `isSessionExpired` is exact-millisecond. Multi-instance deploys with skewed clocks could log users out a few seconds early/late. Probably fine for the 5-min minimum, but worth noting. ## Security - **Auto-logout audit log lacks IP/orgId**: HIPAA forensics typically wants source IP and which org context. Currently logs only `userId` + path. IP isn't PII for audit purposes; orgIds help correlate. Add both. - **Cookie `Max-Age` is 1 year regardless of user's setting**: intentional (server-side `issuedAt` is the source of truth), but reviewers will ask. Add a one-line comment on the cookie config explaining why. ## API surface - **`maxSessionDuration` is admin-PAT only**: no in-app UI for org owners to set/change their own cap. If this is "Trigger staff sets it during HIPAA onboarding", say so in the PR description; otherwise add an org-settings UI. - **Auto-submit dropdown has no confirmation**: misclicking "5 minutes" immediately shortens the user's session window with no undo. Consider a save button or 3-sec undo toast. ## Schema / migration - **`User.sessionDuration NOT NULL DEFAULT 31556952`**: instant on PG 11+ (metadata-only), but call out in the PR description so reviewers don't worry about a table rewrite on the User table. - **No DB-level constraint matching `SESSION_DURATION_OPTIONS`**: if the option list changes, existing users keep orphaned values. The dropdown's tag-along behaviour hides this — fine for now, but if you ever drop an option you'll need a backfill. ## UX - **Session expiry only fires on next request**: an idle authenticated tab keeps showing UI past the cap (until SSE/polling catches it, ~60s). Add a client-side timer based on the user's effective duration that triggers a fetcher to `/account` or `/logout` at expiry. - **No "you were signed out" message on logout**: users hitting their cap are bounced to `/` with no explanation. Was intentionally reverted in this PR — call that out so reviewers don't request it. ## Tests - Unit coverage on `sessionDuration.server.ts` is solid (215 lines). Missing: integration test for `getUserId` → expired session → redirect to `/logout`, and one for the loader's clamping fix (the most recent bug). Add at least the second one to lock in the regression. --------- Co-authored-by: Matt Aitken <matt@mattaitken.com> Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
@trigger.dev/database
This is the internal database package for the Trigger.dev project. It exports a generated prisma client that can be instantiated with a connection string.
How to switch branches when you've done migrations
Sometimes you've applied migrations and then want to switch branches without wiping out your local database.
To do this you can run the following command:
DB_VOLUME=database-data-alt pnpm run docker
This will switch to the alt volume for your local database. This database will be blank if you haven't switched to this volume before, so you'll need to follow the normal steps (in the Contributing guide) to get setup, e.g. apply migrations and seed.
To switch back to the original volume, run the following command:
pnpm run docker
How to add a new index on a large table
- Modify the Prisma.schema with a single index change (no other changes, just one index at a time)
- Create a Prisma migration using
cd internal-packages/database && pnpm run db:migrate:dev:create - Modify the SQL file: add IF NOT EXISTS to it and CONCURRENTLY:
CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY IF NOT EXISTS "JobRun_eventId_idx" ON "JobRun" ("eventId");
- Don’t apply the Prisma migration locally yet. This is a good opportunity to test the flow.
- Manually apply the index to your database, by running the index command.
- Then locally run
pnpm run db:migrate:deploy
Before deploying
Run the index creation before deploying
CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY IF NOT EXISTS "JobRun_eventId_idx" ON "JobRun" ("eventId");
These commands are useful:
-- creates an index safely, this can take a long time (2 mins maybe)
CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY IF NOT EXISTS "JobRun_eventId_idx" ON "JobRun" ("eventId");
-- checks the status of an index
SELECT * FROM pg_stat_progress_create_index WHERE relid = '"JobRun"'::regclass;
-- checks if the index is there
SELECT * FROM pg_indexes WHERE tablename = 'JobRun' AND indexname = 'JobRun_eventId_idx';
Now, when you deploy and prisma runs the migration, it will skip the index creation because it already exists. If you don't do this, there will be pain.
