Full-mode install booted into an unusable kiosk:
- Chromium opened before uvicorn → "can't connect to localhost"
- After reload, requires_setup=true hijacked /spoolbuddy → /setup
- Touch-only Pi has no keyboard to complete the setup wizard
- Declining auth left the user at / instead of the kiosk
Fixes, bundled:
1. backend/app/cli.py kiosk-bootstrap now, in one DB transaction:
- creates a scoped API key (can_read_status=True, rest false)
- upserts setup_completed=true
so AuthContext never redirects and the kiosk URL loads directly. Users
who want auth can still enable it from the admin UI; the provisioned
key keeps working.
2. install.sh full-mode runs the CLI as the bambuddy service user after
create_bambuddy_service and sed-replaces the CHANGE_ME_AFTER_SETUP
placeholder in spoolbuddy/.env.
3. The generated spoolbuddy-kiosk-launch polls ${backend_url}/health for
up to 60s before exec'ing chromium, so cold boots wait for uvicorn
instead of flashing ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED.
Standalone mode was unaffected — users supply a real key from their
existing Bambuddy before install.
Full-mode install wrote CHANGE_ME_AFTER_SETUP as SPOOLBUDDY_API_KEY because
no admin exists yet to create a real one. On reboot the kiosk launched with
that placeholder, AuthContext rejected it, and the user hit the Bambuddy
login page instead of the kiosk. Standalone mode was unaffected — users
paste a real key from their existing Bambuddy before install.
Adds backend/app/cli.py with a kiosk-bootstrap subcommand that creates a
scoped APIKey row directly in the DB (can_read_status=True, everything else
false) and prints the full key to stdout. install.sh full-mode runs it as
the bambuddy service user after create_bambuddy_service, captures the key,
and sed-replaces the placeholder in spoolbuddy/.env. Idempotent with
--force for re-installs.
Drops the outdated "create an API key and edit .env" next-step block since
the kiosk is now provisioned automatically.
