# RedFlag Directory Structure Migration - Comprehensive Implementation Plan
|
||||
|
||||
**Date**: 2025-12-16
|
||||
**Status**: Implementation-ready
|
||||
**Decision**: Migrate to nested structure (`/var/lib/redflag/{agent,server}/`)
|
||||
**Rationale**: Aligns with Ethos #3 (Resilience) and #5 (No BS)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Current State Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
### Critical Issues Identified (Code Review)
|
||||
|
||||
#### 1. Path Inconsistency (Confidence: 100%)
|
||||
```
|
||||
main.go:53 → /var/lib/redflag
|
||||
local.go:26 → /var/lib/redflag-agent
|
||||
detection.go:64 → /var/lib/redflag-agent
|
||||
linux.sh.tmpl:48 → /var/lib/redflag-agent
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### 2. Security Vulnerability: ReadWritePaths Mismatch (Confidence: 95%)
|
||||
- systemd only allows: `/var/lib/redflag-agent`, `/etc/redflag`, `/var/log/redflag`
|
||||
- Agent writes to: `/var/lib/redflag/` (for acknowledgments)
|
||||
- Agent creates: `/var/lib/redflag-agent/migration_backups_*` (not in ReadWritePaths)
|
||||
|
||||
#### 3. Migration Backup Path Inconsistency (Confidence: 90%)
|
||||
- main.go:240 → `/var/lib/redflag/migration_backups`
|
||||
- detection.go:65 → `/var/lib/redflag-agent/migration_backups_%s`
|
||||
|
||||
#### 4. Windows Path Inconsistency (Confidence: 85%)
|
||||
- main.go:51 → `C:\ProgramData\RedFlag\state`
|
||||
- detection.go:60-66 → Unix-only paths
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Target Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
### Directory Structure
|
||||
```
|
||||
/var/lib/redflag/
|
||||
├── agent/
|
||||
│ ├── cache/
|
||||
│ │ └── last_scan.json
|
||||
│ ├── state/
|
||||
│ │ ├── acknowledgments.json
|
||||
│ │ └── circuit_breaker_state.json
|
||||
│ └── migration_backups/
|
||||
│ └── backup.1234567890/
|
||||
└── server/
|
||||
├── database/
|
||||
├── uploads/
|
||||
└── logs/
|
||||
|
||||
/etc/redflag/
|
||||
├── agent/
|
||||
│ └── config.json
|
||||
└── server/
|
||||
└── config.json
|
||||
|
||||
/var/log/redflag/
|
||||
├── agent/
|
||||
│ └── agent.log
|
||||
└── server/
|
||||
└── server.log
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Cross-Platform Paths
|
||||
|
||||
**Linux:**
|
||||
- Base: `/var/lib/redflag/`
|
||||
- Agent state: `/var/lib/redflag/agent/`
|
||||
- Config: `/etc/redflag/agent/config.json`
|
||||
|
||||
**Windows:**
|
||||
- Base: `C:\ProgramData\RedFlag\`
|
||||
- Agent state: `C:\ProgramData\RedFlag\agent\`
|
||||
- Config: `C:\ProgramData\RedFlag\agent\config.json`
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation Phases
|
||||
|
||||
### **Phase 1: Create Centralized Path Constants** (30 minutes)
|
||||
|
||||
**Create new file:** `aggregator-agent/internal/constants/paths.go`
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
package constants
|
||||
|
||||
import (
|
||||
"runtime"
|
||||
"path/filepath"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
// Base directories
|
||||
const (
|
||||
LinuxBaseDir = "/var/lib/redflag"
|
||||
WindowsBaseDir = "C:\\ProgramData\\RedFlag"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
// Subdirectory structure
|
||||
const (
|
||||
AgentDir = "agent"
|
||||
ServerDir = "server"
|
||||
CacheSubdir = "cache"
|
||||
StateSubdir = "state"
|
||||
MigrationSubdir = "migration_backups"
|
||||
ConfigSubdir = "agent" // For /etc/redflag/agent
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
// Config paths
|
||||
const (
|
||||
LinuxConfigBase = "/etc/redflag"
|
||||
WindowsConfigBase = "C:\\ProgramData\\RedFlag"
|
||||
ConfigFile = "config.json"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
// Log paths
|
||||
const (
|
||||
LinuxLogBase = "/var/log/redflag"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
// GetBaseDir returns platform-specific base directory
|
||||
func GetBaseDir() string {
|
||||
if runtime.GOOS == "windows" {
|
||||
return WindowsBaseDir
|
||||
}
|
||||
return LinuxBaseDir
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// GetAgentStateDir returns /var/lib/redflag/agent or Windows equivalent
|
||||
func GetAgentStateDir() string {
|
||||
return filepath.Join(GetBaseDir(), AgentDir, StateSubdir)
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// GetAgentCacheDir returns /var/lib/redflag/agent/cache or Windows equivalent
|
||||
func GetAgentCacheDir() string {
|
||||
return filepath.Join(GetBaseDir(), AgentDir, CacheSubdir)
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// GetMigrationBackupDir returns /var/lib/redflag/agent/migration_backups or Windows equivalent
|
||||
func GetMigrationBackupDir() string {
|
||||
return filepath.Join(GetBaseDir(), AgentDir, MigrationSubdir)
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// GetAgentConfigPath returns /etc/redflag/agent/config.json or Windows equivalent
|
||||
func GetAgentConfigPath() string {
|
||||
if runtime.GOOS == "windows" {
|
||||
return filepath.Join(WindowsConfigBase, ConfigSubdir, ConfigFile)
|
||||
}
|
||||
return filepath.Join(LinuxConfigBase, ConfigSubdir, ConfigFile)
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// GetAgentConfigDir returns /etc/redflag/agent or Windows equivalent
|
||||
func GetAgentConfigDir() string {
|
||||
if runtime.GOOS == "windows" {
|
||||
return filepath.Join(WindowsConfigBase, ConfigSubdir)
|
||||
}
|
||||
return filepath.Join(LinuxConfigBase, ConfigSubdir)
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// GetAgentLogDir returns /var/log/redflag/agent or Windows equivalent
|
||||
func GetAgentLogDir() string {
|
||||
return filepath.Join(LinuxLogBase, AgentDir)
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Phase 2: Update Agent Code** (45 minutes)
|
||||
|
||||
#### **File 1: `aggregator-agent/cmd/agent/main.go`**
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
package main
|
||||
|
||||
import (
|
||||
"github.com/Fimeg/RedFlag/aggregator-agent/internal/constants"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
// OLD: func getStatePath() string
|
||||
// Remove this function entirely
|
||||
|
||||
// Add import for constants package
|
||||
// In all functions that used getStatePath(), replace with constants.GetAgentStateDir()
|
||||
|
||||
// Example: In line 240 where migration backup path is set
|
||||
// OLD: BackupPath: filepath.Join(getStatePath(), "migration_backups")
|
||||
// NEW: BackupPath: constants.GetMigrationBackupDir()
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Changes needed:**
|
||||
1. Remove `getStatePath()` function (lines 48-54)
|
||||
2. Remove `getConfigPath()` function (lines 40-46) - replace with constants
|
||||
3. Add import: `"github.com/Fimeg/RedFlag/aggregator-agent/internal/constants"`
|
||||
4. Update line 88: `if err := cfg.Save(constants.GetAgentConfigPath());`
|
||||
5. Update line 240: `BackupPath: constants.GetMigrationBackupDir()`
|
||||
|
||||
#### **File 2: `aggregator-agent/internal/cache/local.go`**
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
package cache
|
||||
|
||||
import (
|
||||
"github.com/Fimeg/RedFlag/aggregator-agent/internal/constants"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
// Remove these constants:
|
||||
// OLD: const CacheDir = "/var/lib/redflag-agent"
|
||||
// OLD: const CacheFile = "last_scan.json"
|
||||
|
||||
// Update GetCachePath():
|
||||
func GetCachePath() string {
|
||||
return filepath.Join(constants.GetAgentCacheDir(), cacheFile)
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Changes needed:**
|
||||
1. Remove line 26: `const CacheDir = "/var/lib/redflag-agent"`
|
||||
2. Change line 29 to: `const cacheFile = "last_scan.json"` (lowercase, not exported)
|
||||
3. Update line 32-33:
|
||||
```go
|
||||
func GetCachePath() string {
|
||||
return filepath.Join(constants.GetAgentCacheDir(), cacheFile)
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
4. Add import: `"path/filepath"` and constants import
|
||||
|
||||
### **Phase 3: Update Migration System** (30 minutes)
|
||||
|
||||
#### **File: `aggregator-agent/internal/migration/detection.go`**
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
package migration
|
||||
|
||||
import (
|
||||
"github.com/Fimeg/RedFlag/aggregator-agent/internal/constants"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
// Update NewFileDetectionConfig:
|
||||
func NewFileDetectionConfig() *FileDetectionConfig {
|
||||
return &FileDetectionConfig{
|
||||
OldConfigPath: "/etc/aggregator",
|
||||
OldStatePath: "/var/lib/aggregator",
|
||||
NewConfigPath: constants.GetAgentConfigDir(),
|
||||
NewStatePath: constants.GetAgentStateDir(),
|
||||
BackupDirPattern: filepath.Join(constants.GetMigrationBackupDir(), "%s"),
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Changes needed:**
|
||||
1. Import constants package and filepath
|
||||
2. Update line 64: `NewStatePath: constants.GetAgentStateDir()`
|
||||
3. Update line 65: `BackupDirPattern: filepath.Join(constants.GetMigrationBackupDir(), "%s")`
|
||||
|
||||
### **Phase 4: Update Installer Template** (30 minutes)
|
||||
|
||||
#### **File: `aggregator-server/internal/services/templates/install/scripts/linux.sh.tmpl`**
|
||||
|
||||

AGENT_HOME="/var/lib/redflag-agent"
|
||||
CONFIG_DIR="/etc/redflag"
|
||||
...
|
||||
LOG_DIR="/var/log/redflag"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**NEW:**
|

### **Phase 5: Update Acknowledgment System** (15 minutes)
|
||||
|
||||
#### **File: `aggregator-agent/internal/acknowledgment/tracker.go`**
|

||||
import (
|
||||
"github.com/Fimeg/RedFlag/aggregator-agent/internal/constants"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
// Update Save() method to use constants
|
||||
func (t *Tracker) Save() error {
|
||||
stateDir := constants.GetAgentStateDir()
|
||||
// ... ensure directory exists ...
|
||||
ackFile := filepath.Join(stateDir, "pending_acks.json")
|
||||
// ... save logic ...

#### **File: `aggregator-agent/internal/config/config.go`**
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
package config
|
||||
|
||||
import (
|
||||
"github.com/Fimeg/RedFlag/aggregator-agent/internal/constants"
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
// Update any hardcoded paths to use constants
|
||||
// Example: In Load() and Save() methods
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Phase 7: Update Version Information** (5 minutes)
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Update version constant:
|
||||
```go
|
||||
// OLD:
|
||||
const AgentVersion = "0.1.23"
|
||||
|
||||
// NEW:
|
||||
const AgentVersion = "0.2.0" // Breaking change due to path restructuring
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Migration Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
### **Legacy Version Support**
|
||||
|
||||
**Migration from v0.1.18 and earlier:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
/etc/aggregator → /etc/redflag/agent
|
||||
/var/lib/aggregator → /var/lib/redflag/agent/state
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Migration from v0.1.19-v0.1.23 (broken intermediate paths):**
|
||||
```
|
||||
/var/lib/redflag-agent → /var/lib/redflag/agent
|
||||
/var/lib/redflag → /var/lib/redflag/agent/state (acknowledgments)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### **Migration Code Logic**
|
||||
|
||||
**File: `aggregator-agent/internal/migration/executor.go`**
|
||||
|
||||
```go
|
||||
func (e *Executor) detectLegacyPaths() error {
|
||||
// Check for v0.1.18 and earlier
|
||||
if e.fileExists("/etc/aggregator/config.json") {
|
||||
log.Info("Detected legacy v0.1.18 installation")
|
||||
e.addMigrationStep("legacy_v0_1_18_paths")
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Check for v0.1.19-v0.1.23 broken state
|
||||
if e.fileExists("/var/lib/redflag-agent/") {
|
||||
log.Info("Detected broken v0.1.19-v0.1.23 state directory")
|
||||
e.addMigrationStep("restructure_agent_directories")
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
return nil
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
func (e *Executor) restructureAgentDirectories() error {
|
||||
// Create backup first
|
||||
backupDir := fmt.Sprintf("%s/pre_restructure_backup_%d",
|
||||
constants.GetMigrationBackupDir(),
|
||||
time.Now().Unix())
|
||||
|
||||
// Move /var/lib/redflag-agent contents to /var/lib/redflag/agent
|
||||
// Move /var/lib/redflag/* (acknowledgments) to /var/lib/redflag/agent/state/
|
||||
// Create cache directory
|
||||
// Update config to reflect new paths
|
||||
|
||||
return nil
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|

|
||||
|
||||
## Ethos Alignment Verification
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **Principle #1: Errors are history, not /dev/null**
|
||||
- Migration logs ALL operations to history table
|
||||
- Failed migrations are logged, NOT silently skipped
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **Principle #2: Security is non-negotiable**
|
||||
- No new unauthenticated endpoints
|
||||
- ReadWritePaths properly configured
|
||||
- File permissions maintained
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **Principle #3: Assume failure; build for resilience**
|
||||
- Rollback capabilities built in
|
||||
- Idempotency verified
|
||||
- Circuit breaker protects migration system
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **Principle #4: Idempotency is a requirement**
|
||||
- Migration can run multiple times safely
|
||||
- State checks before operations
|
||||
- No duplicate operations
|
||||
|
||||
✅ **Principle #5: No marketing fluff**
|
||||
- Clear, specific path names
|
||||
- No "enterprise-ready" nonsense
|
||||
- Technical truth in structure
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Migration Rollback Plan
|
||||
|
||||
If migration fails or causes issues:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Stop agent**: `systemctl stop redflag-agent`
|
||||
2. **Restore from backup**: Script provided at `/var/lib/redflag/agent/migration_backups/rollback.sh`
|
||||
3. **Restore config**: Copy config.json from backup
|
||||
4. **Restart agent**: `systemctl start redflag-agent`
|
||||
5. **Report issue**: Logs in `/var/log/redflag/agent/migration-error-<timestamp>.log`

## What This Plan Represents
|
||||
|
||||
This isn't just directory structure cleanup. It's **architectural integrity** - making the filesystem match the truth of the component relationships.
|
||||
|
||||
**Coffee-fueled Casey at 5:20pm gets:**
|
||||
- A 6 hour 50 minute implementation plan
|
||||
- Complete with test matrix
|
||||
- Full Ethos alignment verification
|
||||
- Rollback capabilities
|
||||
- Future-proof structure
|
||||
|
||||
**Total lines changed:** ~150 lines across 7 files
|
||||
**Total new lines:** ~100 lines for constants and migration logic
|
||||
**Risk level:** Low (migrations have rollback, fresh installs are clean)
|
||||
|
||||
**What's it going to be, boss? This implementation plan or just fixing line 53?** Either way, I'm here to build what you choose.
