ticket.rs

//! **The actor ticket: the appliance's word that this human may renew this
//! tenant** — minted by the product's appliance, verified here.
//!
//! # Which way this one points, and why that is the whole point
//!
//! Every other signed thing in this crate travels monetize → appliance: a
//! [`crate::signing::verify_fact`] is monetize's verdict about a tenant, and a
//! [`crate::signing::GoAhead`] is monetize's permission to grow a data set.
//! Both are verified on the appliance, against monetize's key.
//!
//! **A ticket travels the other way.** monetize authenticates exactly one
//! caller on its gRPC surface — a shared bearer, and an empty one means open
//! (`monetize-server/src/auth.rs`) — so `Purchase.Start` cannot tell the
//! product's console from the product's operator, and certainly cannot tell one
//! browser session from another. When a *customer* renews their own
//! subscription, the thing monetize needs and does not have is evidence that
//! the human driving the console holds the tenant they are paying for.
//!
//! The appliance is the one party that knows. It holds the identity table, the
//! keys and the grants; on gunnar a principal's id **is** the namespace it owns
//! (`AuthTable::owns_account`, a string equality with no row to get wrong). So
//! the appliance decides, and says so in a ticket monetize can check without
//! asking anybody.
//!
//! # Why monetize verifies a signature instead of calling the appliance back
//!
//! The obvious alternative — monetize asks the appliance "is this ticket
//! yours?" — needs no new key material at all, because a product plugin already
//! holds an authenticated client to its own appliance. It was rejected for one
//! reason, and it is the reason this whole path exists:
//!
//! > **It puts the appliance in the critical path of its own renewal.**
//!
//! A renewal is what a customer does when the box is full, suspended, or down.
//! A design in which the box must be reachable before it can be paid for cannot
//! serve the case it was built for. A signature is checked offline, so a
//! ticket minted while the box was up is still good when it is not.
//!
//! # What a ticket is NOT
//!
//! A ticket is **permission for one verb, never a widening of any other**. It
//! authorises `purpose: "renew"` on exactly the tenant it names. It cannot
//! authorise an order (new caps), it cannot name a second tenant, and its
//! absence changes nothing — a request with no ticket is the operator path,
//! unchanged.
//!
//! # Shape
//!
//! ```json
//! {"v":1,"issuer":"gunnar","product":"gunnar","tenant":"alice",
//!  "purpose":"renew","nonce":"<one line, ≤256 B>",
//!  "issued_unix_ms":<i64>,"expires_unix_ms":<i64>,
//!  "signature":"<base64, standard alphabet, padded>"}
//! ```
//!
//! Ed25519 over [`ticket_message`]: the canonical JSON of every field except
//! `signature`. The same canonical form and the same base64 alphabet a
//! [`crate::signing::GoAhead`] uses, so there is one of each in this crate and
//! not two.
