# Attachment API Documentation
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
The Masina-Dock application supports file attachments for fuel records, service records, and recurring expenses (taxes). This document describes the API endpoints, data models, and usage patterns for working with attachments.
|
||||
|
||||
## Security
|
||||
- All attachment operations require authentication via `@login_required` decorator
|
||||
- Users can only access their own attachments through vehicle ownership validation
|
||||
- File paths are validated to prevent directory traversal attacks
|
||||
- Uploaded files are stored in `/app/uploads/attachments/` with secure filenames
|
||||
|
||||
## API Endpoints
|
||||
|
||||

## Using Attachments with Records
|
||||
|
||||
### Fuel Records
|
||||
|
||||
**Create with Attachment:**
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// 1. Upload attachment first
|
||||
const formData = new FormData();
|
||||
formData.append('attachment', fileInput.files[0]);
|
||||
const uploadResponse = await fetch('/api/upload/attachment', {
|
||||
method: 'POST',
|
||||
credentials: 'include',
|
||||
body: formData
|
||||
});
|
||||
const { file_path } = await uploadResponse.json();
|
||||
|
||||
// 2. Create fuel record with attachment path
|
||||
await fetch(`/api/vehicles/${vehicleId}/fuel-records`, {
|
||||
method: 'POST',
|
||||
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
|
||||
credentials: 'include',
|
||||
body: JSON.stringify({
|
||||
date: '2023-11-12',
|
||||
odometer: 45000,
|
||||
fuel_amount: 12.5,
|
||||
cost: 45.00,
|
||||
unit: 'MPG',
|
||||
notes: 'Regular fill-up',
|
||||
document_path: file_path // Attach the uploaded file
|
||||
})
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Retrieve with Attachment:**
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
const records = await fetch(`/api/vehicles/${vehicleId}/fuel-records`, {
|
||||
credentials: 'include'
|
||||
}).then(r => r.json());
|
||||
|
||||
// Each record includes document_path
|
||||
records.forEach(record => {
|
||||
if (record.document_path) {
|
||||
console.log(`Attachment: ${record.document_path}`);
|
||||
}
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Recurring Expenses (Taxes)
|
||||
|
||||
**Create with Attachment:**
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// 1. Upload attachment
|
||||
const formData = new FormData();
|
||||
formData.append('attachment', fileInput.files[0]);
|
||||
const uploadResponse = await fetch('/api/upload/attachment', {
|
||||
method: 'POST',
|
||||
credentials: 'include',
|
||||
body: formData
|
||||
});
|
||||
const { file_path } = await uploadResponse.json();
|
||||
|
||||
// 2. Create recurring expense with attachment
|
||||
await fetch(`/api/vehicles/${vehicleId}/recurring-expenses`, {
|
||||
method: 'POST',
|
||||
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
|
||||
credentials: 'include',
|
||||
body: JSON.stringify({
|
||||
expense_type: 'Insurance',
|
||||
description: 'Car Insurance',
|
||||
amount: 1200.00,
|
||||
frequency: 'yearly',
|
||||
start_date: '2023-11-12',
|
||||
notes: 'Annual premium',
|
||||
document_path: file_path // Attach the policy document
|
||||
})
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Service Records
|
||||
|
||||
**Create with Attachment:**
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Same pattern as fuel records
|
||||
const formData = new FormData();
|
||||
formData.append('attachment', fileInput.files[0]);
|
||||
const uploadResponse = await fetch('/api/upload/attachment', {
|
||||
method: 'POST',
|
||||
credentials: 'include',
|
||||
body: formData
|
||||
});
|
||||
const { file_path } = await uploadResponse.json();
|
||||
|
||||
await fetch(`/api/vehicles/${vehicleId}/service-records`, {
|
||||
method: 'POST',
|
||||
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
|
||||
credentials: 'include',
|
||||
body: JSON.stringify({
|
||||
date: '2023-11-12',
|
||||
odometer: 45000,
|
||||
description: 'Oil Change',
|
||||
category: 'Maintenance',
|
||||
cost: 45.00,
|
||||
notes: 'Synthetic oil',
|
||||
document_path: file_path // Attach the invoice
|
||||
})
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Mobile Camera Support
|
||||
|
||||
All attachment input fields support camera capture on mobile devices via the `capture="environment"` attribute:
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<input type="file"
|
||||
id="fuel-attachment"
|
||||
name="attachment"
|
||||
accept="image/*,.pdf,.txt"
|
||||
capture="environment">
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
On mobile devices, this will prompt the user to:
|
||||
1. Take a photo with the camera, OR
|
||||
2. Select a file from the device
|
||||
|
||||
The `accept="image/*"` attribute allows any image format, while specific formats like `.pdf` and `.txt` are also accepted.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Migration
|
||||
|
||||
To add attachment support to an existing database, run the migration script:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Inside Docker container
|
||||
python /app/backend/migrate_attachments.py
|
||||
|
||||
# Or locally
|
||||
cd backend
|
||||
python migrate_attachments.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will add the `document_path` column to:
|
||||
- `fuel_record` table
|
||||
- `recurring_expense` table
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## File Storage
|
||||
|
||||
**Location:** `/app/uploads/attachments/`
|
||||
|
||||
**Filename Format:** `{timestamp}_{random}_{original_filename}`
|
||||
- Example: `20231112153045_a1b2c3d4_receipt.pdf`
|
||||
|
||||
**Permissions:** Files are saved with `0o644` permissions (read for all, write for owner)
|
||||
|
||||
**Directory Creation:** The attachments directory is created automatically if it doesn't exist
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Always upload the file first**, then reference it in the record
|
||||
2. **Handle upload failures gracefully** - allow users to save records without attachments
|
||||
3. **Validate file types** on both client and server side
|
||||
4. **Use relative paths** - store only `attachments/filename.ext`, not absolute paths
|
||||
5. **Check file existence** before displaying download links
|
||||
6. **Implement cleanup** - consider removing orphaned attachments when records are deleted
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Example: Complete Flow
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
async function addFuelRecordWithAttachment(vehicleId, recordData, file) {
|
||||
let documentPath = null;
|
||||
|
||||
// Step 1: Upload attachment if present
|
||||
if (file) {
|
||||
try {
|
||||
const formData = new FormData();
|
||||
formData.append('attachment', file);
|
||||
|
||||
const uploadResponse = await fetch('/api/upload/attachment', {
|
||||
method: 'POST',
|
||||
credentials: 'include',
|
||||
body: formData
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
if (!uploadResponse.ok) {
|
||||
console.error('Attachment upload failed');
|
||||
// Continue without attachment
|
||||
} else {
|
||||
const { file_path } = await uploadResponse.json();
|
||||
documentPath = file_path;
|
||||
}
|
||||
} catch (error) {
|
||||
console.error('Attachment upload error:', error);
|
||||
// Continue without attachment
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Step 2: Create fuel record
|
||||
const response = await fetch(`/api/vehicles/${vehicleId}/fuel-records`, {
|
||||
method: 'POST',
|
||||
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
|
||||
credentials: 'include',
|
||||
body: JSON.stringify({
|
||||
...recordData,
|
||||
document_path: documentPath
|
||||
})
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
if (!response.ok) {
|
||||
throw new Error('Failed to create fuel record');
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
return await response.json();
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Error Handling
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
try {
|
||||
const formData = new FormData();
|
||||
formData.append('attachment', file);
|
||||
|
||||
const response = await fetch('/api/upload/attachment', {
|
||||
method: 'POST',
|
||||
credentials: 'include',
|
||||
body: formData
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
if (!response.ok) {
|
||||
const error = await response.json();
|
||||
console.error('Upload failed:', error.error);
|
||||
// Handle specific error cases
|
||||
if (response.status === 400) {
|
||||
alert('Invalid file type or no file selected');
|
||||
} else if (response.status === 500) {
|
||||
alert('Server error during upload');
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
} catch (error) {
|
||||
console.error('Network error:', error);
|
||||
alert('Failed to connect to server');
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
