- Add FILES field on attachment
- Adapt Attachment logic in front to use new resolver/controller
- Update files-field logic to infer applicationId from fieldMetadataId +
ask for fieldMetadataId in upload resolver
- Design update

- Adapt activity files logic
# Introduction
In this PR we're introducing mainly two branded type signatures for both
`JsonbProperty` entities properties and `SerializedRelation` (jsonb
serialized property storing another entity id).
Allowing to dynamically map over them later in order to build universal
`jsonb` `serialized` relations.
## `JsonbProperty`
A branded wrapper type that marks entity properties stored as PostgreSQL
JSONB columns. It adds a phantom brand `__JsonbPropertyBrand__` to
object types while leaving primitives unchanged. The branded key is
optional and typed as never, also omitted when transpiled to
`UniversalFlat`
**Should be used at entities lvl only:**
```typescript
@Column({ type: 'jsonb', nullable: false })
gridPosition: JsonbProperty<GridPosition>;
@Column({ nullable: false, type: 'jsonb', default: [] })
publishedVersions: JsonbProperty<string[]>;
```
## `SerializedRelation`
A branded string type that marks foreign key IDs stored inside JSONB
objects. These are entity references serialized within a JSONB column
rather than being a regular database foreign key.
**Usage in jsonb property generic***
```ts
type FieldMetadataRelationSettings = {
relationType: RelationType;
onDelete?: RelationOnDeleteAction;
joinColumnName?: string | null;
junctionTargetFieldId?: SerializedRelation;
};
```
## `FormatJsonbSerializedRelation<T>`
A transformation type that processes JSONB properties for universal
entity mapping. It:
1. Detects properties with the `JsonbProperty` brand
2. Finds `SerializedRelation` properties
3. Renames them from `*Id` to `*UniversalIdentifier`
4. Removes the brand from the output type ( optional though )
```typescript
// Input: JsonbProperty<{ targetFieldMetadataId: SerializedRelation }>
// Output: { targetFieldMetadataUniversalIdentifier: SerializedRelation }
```
## Result
An example of the dynamic type mapping, through a type-test example
```ts
type SettingsTestCase = UniversalFlatFieldMetadata<
| FieldMetadataType.RELATION
| FieldMetadataType.NUMBER
| FieldMetadataType.TEXT
>['settings']
type SettingsExpectedResult =
| {
relationType: RelationType;
onDelete?: RelationOnDeleteAction | undefined;
joinColumnName?: string | null | undefined;
junctionTargetFieldUniversalIdentifier?: SerializedRelation | undefined;
}
| {
dataType?: NumberDataType | undefined;
decimals?: number | undefined;
type?: FieldNumberVariant | undefined;
}
| {
displayedMaxRows?: number | undefined;
}
| null;
type Assertions = [
Expect<Equal<SettingsTestCase, SettingsExpectedResult>>,
]
```
## Remarks
- Removed duplicated twenty-server and twenty-shared typed
- Removed class validator instances for default value that were not used
at runtime, we will refactor that to add validation across all entities
following a same pattern
In this PR :
- New field type FieldMetadataType.FILES added (as jsonb in DB)
- Backend: GraphQL types, validation, REST API schema, data processor
handling
- Frontend: field configuration in settings
- Feature flag IS_FILES_FIELD_ENABLED to gate the feature
- Integration tests for create/filter validation
- Dev seed: Feature flag enabled + FILES field on survey result object
To do in next PRs :
- Backend :
-- new workspaceFile controller (for download) & new workspaceFile
upload resolver (for upload)
-- pre-hook/post-hook to ensure fileId existence + listener to ensure
cleaning
- Frontend : FILES field display/edit in table view, record, ...
