The unittest side of the suite built its temp directory tree with
tempfile.mkdtemp and a manually enabled override_settings, cleaned up only if
tearDown ran. That is now gone. DirectoriesMixin lives alongside the layout it
bridges and does nothing but hand the paperless_dirs fixture to TestCase
subclasses as self.dirs, so both halves of the suite get the same twelve
settings, the same directory shapes and cleanup owned by tmp_path.
The mixin moves to paperless_testing.dirs rather than staying in the documents
test utilities, because modules in paperless and paperless_mail import it
across the app boundary. The thirty-eight consuming modules change only their
import line; self.dirs.scratch_dir and its siblings keep working.
SetPermissionsSerializer was a bare DictField, and the legacy bulk_edit
set_permissions parameter bypassed even that by hand-calling
validate_set_permissions() on an unchecked dict. A bool or a non-list in
place of users/groups crashed with a raw TypeError instead of a 400.
It is now a nested serializer (view/change, each with users/groups as
lists of integers), used for owned-object create/update, the legacy
bulk_edit set_permissions parameter, and bulk_edit_objects permissions.
Unknown action keys are rejected: previously a typo like "veiw" was
silently dropped, leaving an empty permission set that could clear
existing grants. An explicit set_permissions null (an owner-only change)
remains a no-op, and an empty bulk_edit_objects permissions dict is still
rejected.
* Perf: batch guardian permission assignment in bulk-edit
bulk_edit.set_permissions and BulkEditObjectPermissionsView both
looped documents/objects and called set_permissions_for_object per
object, which itself calls guardian's assign_perm/remove_perm once
per (object, user) pair -- ~10-20+ queries per object, scaling with
selection size.
Added set_permissions_for_objects, a bulk equivalent that resolves
existing permission holders once across the whole batch (not once per
object) and applies changes with a small, batch-size-independent
number of queries per action instead of one per (object, user) pair.
* Perf: avoid unnecessary full-row fetches in batch permission assignment
set_permissions_for_objects now takes a model + pks instead of instances,
and identity filtering resolves straight to ids, so bulk-editing
permissions no longer materializes full Document/User/Group rows just to
read their pk/id. Row construction for bulk_create is also chunked to
bound peak memory for very large "apply to all" operations.
* Fix: use .distinct() for existing-grant lookup, drop flaky query-count invariant tests
.distinct() lets the database dedupe identity ids server-side instead of
transferring one row per (object, grantee) match and deduping in Python --
was the dominant cost on a large selection with existing grants.
Also replaced the two query-count-equality tests (bulk_edit and the
bulk_edit_objects API path) with plain functional-correctness checks at
both batch sizes. Hopefully stops that flake.
* Mark empty-pks early-return in set_permissions_for_objects as no-cover
Defensive guard for an edge case (all requested pks already gone/invalid)
rather than a path normal usage exercises; matches the existing
pragma: no cover convention elsewhere in this file.
* Perf: drop speculative row-chunking in bulk permission assignment, keep the query-batching fix
* Resolve every permission action before applying any of them
This fixes the existing issue and resolves the Copilot comment
* Assert permission assignment does not scale with selection size
The two batching tests only checked that permissions came out correct at
5 and 50 objects, so reverting to the old per-object loop would still
have passed. Check sizes as well to prevent that
