Reference to Existing Issue

Closes #1345.

Builds on top of #1395, which added the BatchCommand model and the REST APIs.

Description of Changes

1. Execute page (step 1)

New admin view at /admin/connection/batchcommand/execute/, reachable from the
Network Operations menu, which collects the command and its targets:

type            Command type (required)
input           Rendered by execute-command.js according to the type
                (shell command, new password, ...)
label           Short label to identify the mass command (required)
notes           Optional notes
organization    Organization (optional for superusers)
group           Device group (optional)
location        Location (optional)

Non superusers must choose at least one target and can only choose organizations,
groups and locations they manage. A valid submission is stored in the session and
redirects to the confirm page (Post/Redirect/Get), so that the device table of the
next step can be paginated with ordinary GET requests.

2. Confirm page (step 2)

Lists the devices matched by the chosen targets, resolved with
BatchCommand.dry_run() so that the admin and the background execution cannot
drift apart, and lets single devices be excluded before executing.

The table is the changelist of the ModelAdmin currently registered for
Device, composed at request time, so the columns added by other modules
(eg. the health status of openwisp-monitoring) appear here too. The exclusions are
kept in sessionStorage, so they survive the page changes of the device table.

3. Change page

Custom change form showing the details of the mass command and a paginated table
of its results:

Device      Status      Output      Modified
  • devices skipped during creation are merged into the same table, with the reason
    they were skipped
  • the output of each command is truncated to its last line
  • filters by status (including skipped), location, group and organization
    (superusers), plus a search by device name

4. Real time monitoring

New websocket endpoint:

ws/controller/batch-command/<uuid:pk>

BatchCommandConsumer reuses BaseDeviceConsumer and accepts the connection
only for superusers and for staff users who can add and view mass commands and
manage the organization of the batch.

The change page updates without reloading: the status of each device, the output,
the counter of the affected devices and the paginator. On connect and on every
reconnection the client asks for the state of the page it is showing, so nothing
is missed while the connection is down.

Messages sent to the browser:

command_update    a result was created or its status changed
batch_status      the status of the mass command changed
batch_state       reply to "request_current_state", used on (re)connection

5. Changelist

Label     Organization     Status     Type     Affected devices     Created

Filters by organization, status, type, group and location, and search by label,
notes, organization, device, location and group.

6. Flow

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds a Django admin workflow for batch-command execution and monitoring. The change adds multitenant target selection, a two-step execute and confirm flow, device exclusions, validation recovery, pagination, filtering, skipped-device display, and live WebSocket updates. It updates batch-command resolution, status aggregation, output previews, and skipped-device data. It also adds admin templates, client-side form handling, styling, routing, menu wiring, and updated tests.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to f4b9b

The mass-command workflow and live monitoring still risk exposing plaintext credentials, bypassing authorization when assertions are disabled, revealing data across organizations, and crashing or showing incorrect results during execution and recovery. The PR is not merge-ready until these security and correctness issues are fixed.

This PR implements real-time monitoring with polling. Is polling the intended final approach? #1344 includes a Mass Command WebSocket endpoint as a requirement, although it leaves the scope open to move or split. This is confusing. Please clarify. Let's implement this asap.

Inline comments:
In `@openwisp_controller/connection/admin.py`:
- Around line 607-618: In openwisp_controller/connection/admin.py at lines
607-618 and 874-886, add a shared UUID-cleaning helper and use it to validate
all request-supplied UUIDs before ORM filtering: clean the values from
_get_pk_list before building selection, and clean filters["location_id"],
filters["group_id"], and filters["organization_id"] in _get_active_filters
before _apply_command_filters and _get_matching_skipped_devices. Invalid values
must be discarded or converted to an empty filter value so they cannot cause ORM
errors; update both sites accordingly.
- Around line 761-765: Replace the local StatusFilter class in
_build_related_filter with a SimpleNamespace instance containing the existing
title and choices values, matching the filter-spec contract already used by the
method and preserving the current filter behavior.
- Around line 854-862: Update the pagination logic around the command queryset
slice and _command_row so the command query is skipped when start is greater
than or equal to commands_count, avoiding a reverse slice such as
[start:commands_end]. Preserve normal command-row generation for pages that
still contain commands, and continue appending skipped_rows for the remaining
page range.
- Around line 738-751: Update the nested _make_choice function to remove the
page parameter from the copied query parameters before encoding each filter
link, while preserving the existing handling of the selected filter parameter
and other query parameters.
- Around line 711-726: Update display_skipped_devices so the first line uses a
Django-translated, pluralized phrase describing the skipped-device count instead
of rendering only the bare number; preserve the existing device list and
deleted-device handling.
- Around line 552-562: Update _resolve_target_queryset to log the caught
ValidationError at warning level before returning Device.objects.none(),
including the wizard’s organization_id, group_id, location_id, and the
validation message; preserve the existing empty-queryset behavior.
- Around line 368-373: Add an aria-label to the checkbox generated by
select_device, using a translatable label that identifies the associated device
and includes the device’s name or other user-facing identifier.
- Around line 903-906: Update display_skipped_devices to retain skipped-device
entries whose Device lookup returns no result: create a placeholder row labeled
as deleted with the primary key, instead of continuing past the entry. Preserve
the existing rendering and counting behavior for devices that still exist.
- Around line 509-535: Update get_device_admin and
get_device_changelist_template to avoid relying solely on
AdminSite.get_model_admin(), which is unavailable in Django 4.2. Resolve the
registered Device admin class through
self.admin_site._registry[Device].__class__ in both methods, or add an
equivalent backward-compatible fallback while preserving the existing class
composition and template selection behavior.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/apps.py`:
- Around line 83-84: Update the comment in the non-created branch of the
post-save receiver to describe the actual reason creation events are skipped,
rather than claiming messages are sent only for status updates; preserve the
receiver’s existing behavior for all non-created saves.
- Around line 109-119: Update batch_command_save_receiver in
openwisp_controller/connection/apps.py at lines 109-119 to include
affected_devices, total_rows, and sufficient skipped-row data in the
batch_status payload. Update the skipped-device handling in
openwisp_controller/connection/static/connection/js/batch-command.js at lines
62-79 to call updateTotals and refresh the current page when skipped devices
alter its contents.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/base/models.py`:
- Around line 553-561: Update the output_preview property to pass the complete
multi-line preview string, including the ellipsis prefix and final output line,
through the existing translation function before returning it; preserve the
empty and single-line return behavior.
- Around line 1027-1073: Serialize the batch status calculation by wrapping the
aggregation and status update in transaction.atomic(), retrieving the batch with
select_for_update() before calculating its status. Update the existing batch
status method and add a regression test covering overlapping final command
completions that verifies the terminal success or failed status is not
overwritten by stale in-progress data.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/channels/consumers.py`:
- Around line 62-100: Preserve the active status filter during WebSocket state
recovery: in openwisp_controller/connection/channels/consumers.py#L62-L100,
accept the filter, apply it before pagination, and return the filtered total in
_handle_current_state_request. In
openwisp_controller/connection/static/connection/js/batch-command.js#L40-L50,
include the active filter in request_current_state; in `#L81-L100`, reject rows
that do not match it before insertion. Add a WebSocket regression test covering
the initial batch_state for a filtered page.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/filters.py`:
- Around line 24-31: Update lookups to stop querying BatchCommand objects for
distinct type values; return the static choices from the type field instead,
preserving the existing value-to-label format and removing the per-render
database query.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/static/connection/css/batch-command.css`:
- Around line 108-110: Update the .command-output pre rule by replacing the
deprecated word-wrap declaration with overflow-wrap: break-word, preserving the
existing wrapping behavior.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/static/connection/js/execute-command.js`:
- Around line 1-11: Wrap the entire execute-command script, including the
django.jQuery initialization and helpers such as initExecuteCommandForm,
initDeviceSelection, getHiddenInput, clearFieldErrors, and showFieldError, in an
IIFE so they remain private and do not create window properties; preserve the
existing initialization behavior.
- Around line 99-130: Extend the click handler for `#review-command-btn` to
validate `#id_password` and `#id_confirm_password` when the change-password command
type is selected, including required, length, and matching checks; use the
existing showFieldError pattern and set hasError so invalid input does not
submit. Preserve current validation for type, label, and custom command.

In
`@openwisp_controller/connection/templates/admin/connection/batch_command/batch_command_change_form.html`:
- Around line 22-25: Remove the redundant section-label HTML comments around the
Commands, OpenWISP Filter, and other referenced template sections, while
preserving comments that explain design constraints or browser behavior.

In
`@openwisp_controller/connection/templates/admin/connection/batch_command/confirm_command.html`:
- Line 94: Update the date rendering in the confirmation template to use
Django’s locale-aware formatting instead of the hardcoded `{% now "F j, Y, P"
%}` format, matching the localized output used elsewhere in the workflow while
preserving the displayed user and timestamp.
- Line 114: Update execute_command_view so that, on GET,
BatchCommandExecutionForm is initialized with the wizard values stored in the
session, preserving the entered label, notes, and command when navigating back
from the confirmation page; keep the existing request handling for non-GET
submissions unchanged.

In
`@openwisp_controller/connection/templates/admin/connection/batch_command/execute_command.html`:
- Line 33: Change the command form control from type="button" to type="submit"
and update the validation binding in execute-command.js from the button click
handler to the form submit event. Preserve the existing validation and
field-error behavior, but call preventDefault only when validation fails so
Enter submission works and valid native form submission proceeds.
- Around line 59-142: Extract the shared field-row rendering into an _field.html
partial that accepts a field object and preserves the existing error, label,
widget, and help-text handling. Replace the duplicated form.type, form.label,
form.notes, form.organization, form.location, and form.group blocks with
includes passing each corresponding field, while leaving the separate form.input
rendering unchanged.

Learning: In Django projects, when using select_related() to traverse relations (for example, select_related("organization__config_settings")), the traversed relation must not be deferred. If you also use .only() in the same query, include the relation name or FK field (e.g., "organization" or "organization_id") in the .only() list to avoid the error "Field X cannot be both deferred and traversed using select_related at the same time." Apply this guideline to Django code in openwisp_controller/config/management/commands/clear_last_ip.py and similar modules by ensuring any select_related with an accompanying only() includes the related field names to prevent deferred/traversed conflicts.

Learning: In this repository, flake8 enforces E501 (line too long) via setup.cfg (max-line-length = 88) while ruff ignores E501 via ruff.toml. Therefore, use '# noqa: E501' on lines that intentionally exceed 88 characters to satisfy flake8 without affecting ruff checks. This applies to Python files across the project (any .py) and is relevant for tests as well. Use sparingly and only where breaking lines is not feasible without hurting readability or functionality.

Learning: When writing or reviewing tests that override pagination behavior via OpenWispPagination.paginate_queryset(), patch `view.pagination_page_size` (not `page_size`). The method uses `getattr(view, "pagination_page_size", self.page_size)`, so tests must set the attribute on the view to affect pagination. If the view class does not define `pagination_page_size`, using `unittest.mock.patch(..., create=True)` is intentional and correct because the attribute may not exist until patched.

If a PR updates the numeric argument (e.g., in `test_config.py`, `test_api.py`, `test_admin.py`, `test_pki.py`) and the test remains consistent with the feature changes, reviewers should not flag the increased number as a performance regression that requires investigation solely because the count went up; instead, focus on whether the update is intentional and the surrounding test/code changes justify the revised expectation.

Learning: When reviewing API pagination behavior in openwisp-controller, assume `OpenWispPagination.paginate_queryset()` allows a per-view page-size override via `getattr(view, "pagination_page_size", self.page_size)` (so `view.pagination_page_size`, if present, should affect pagination). In Python tests, it is valid to patch `pagination_page_size` on a view class even if the attribute isn’t declared on the class by default, by using `unittest.mock.patch.object(..., "pagination_page_size", ..., create=True)` so the override is available for the pagination logic during the test.

Ensure the change remains focused on color substitution and does not introduce behavior changes beyond color values.

Keep add_batchcommand as the workflow permission. BatchCommand.execute() creates internal Command records, and batch execution tests authorize users with only add_batchcommand and view_batchcommand.

Inline comments:
In `@openwisp_controller/connection/admin.py`:
- Around line 920-932: Update _apply_command_filters so status=="skipped"
returns an empty queryset before the normal status filtering, ensuring
change_view does not include non-skipped command rows when displaying skipped
devices.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/apps.py`:
- Around line 88-96: Remove the raw input field from the batch websocket payload
built in the post-save receiver’s batch_command_id branch. Avoid using
unfiltered CommandSerializer data there, and construct or sanitize the payload
to include only the required device_name, status_display, output, modified, and
type fields while preserving the existing batch update behavior.
- Around line 97-106: Update the command-save notification flow around
instance.batch_command and the affected_devices/total_devices properties to
compute the batch command count once and reuse it for both affected_devices and
total_devices, avoiding repeated COUNT queries and the redundant batch fetch
while preserving the existing batch_data values and index behavior.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/base/models.py`:
- Around line 843-845: Update get_skipped_rows to use itertools.islice on the
skipped-device items iterator, applying start and end bounds before building
rows, so pagination avoids copying all entries while preserving the existing
result range.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/channels/consumers.py`:
- Around line 34-112: Add WebSocket consumer tests covering is_user_authorized
and _handle_current_state_request: verify superusers and organization managers
are allowed, cross-organization users are denied, invalid JSON is ignored,
invalid page values default safely, deleted batches produce no state response,
and pagination includes skipped rows correctly. Reuse the existing
device-command consumer test patterns and assert authorization outcomes and sent
batch_state payloads.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/static/connection/css/batch-command.css`:
- Line 148: In the CSS rule containing display: inline-flex, add the required
empty line immediately before that declaration to satisfy the
declaration-empty-line-before Stylelint rule.

In
`@openwisp_controller/connection/templates/admin/connection/batch_command/execute_command.html`:
- Around line 78-81: Change the “Review command” control to type submit, and
update the form-handling logic in execute-command.js to validate on the form’s
submit event rather than only the button click; clear existing errors,
preventDefault when validation fails, and preserve successful submission so
Enter-key submission and non-JavaScript fallback work.

Learning: In Django projects, when using select_related() to traverse relations (for example, select_related("organization__config_settings")), the traversed relation must not be deferred. If you also use .only() in the same query, include the relation name or FK field (e.g., "organization" or "organization_id") in the .only() list to avoid the error "Field X cannot be both deferred and traversed using select_related at the same time." Apply this guideline to Django code in openwisp_controller/config/management/commands/clear_last_ip.py and similar modules by ensuring any select_related with an accompanying only() includes the related field names to prevent deferred/traversed conflicts.

Learning: For disabled organizations in openwisp_controller, allow certificate revocation as a cleanup operation in both the Django admin CertAdmin.revoke_action and REST API CertRevokeView, while preserving all authorization checks. Do not allow CA or certificate renewal for disabled organizations. Tests must verify that a revoked certificate is included in the CA certificate revocation list (CRL).

Learning: In this repository, flake8 enforces E501 (line too long) via setup.cfg (max-line-length = 88) while ruff ignores E501 via ruff.toml. Therefore, use '# noqa: E501' on lines that intentionally exceed 88 characters to satisfy flake8 without affecting ruff checks. This applies to Python files across the project (any .py) and is relevant for tests as well. Use sparingly and only where breaking lines is not feasible without hurting readability or functionality.

Learning: In this project’s Python test suite (files under openwisp_controller/**/tests/), don’t require or request prose/inline comments that document the breakdown of query-count changes (e.g., assertions around template/DB query counts in helpers like _verify_template_queries). Treat query-count assertions as volatile implementation details that change frequently; review should focus on whether the test asserts the expected behavior, not on explaining the specific query-count deltas in comments.

Learning: When reviewing Python test files in this repository, avoid recommending inline comments that explain or justify `assertNumQueries` (Django query count) expectations. Query counts can change frequently as implementations evolve, and inline explanations add maintenance burden; the expected count should be understandable without added comment blocks.

Learning: When writing or reviewing tests that override pagination behavior via OpenWispPagination.paginate_queryset(), patch `view.pagination_page_size` (not `page_size`). The method uses `getattr(view, "pagination_page_size", self.page_size)`, so tests must set the attribute on the view to affect pagination. If the view class does not define `pagination_page_size`, using `unittest.mock.patch(..., create=True)` is intentional and correct because the attribute may not exist until patched.

Learning: When reviewing this repo’s Python test suite, treat changes to the *expected* query count in `assertNumQueries(...)` calls as routine test maintenance. If a PR updates the numeric argument (e.g., in `test_config.py`, `test_api.py`, `test_admin.py`, `test_pki.py`) and the test remains consistent with the feature changes, reviewers should not flag the increased number as a performance regression that requires investigation solely because the count went up; instead, focus on whether the update is intentional and the surrounding test/code changes justify the revised expectation.

Learning: When reviewing API pagination behavior in openwisp-controller, assume `OpenWispPagination.paginate_queryset()` allows a per-view page-size override via `getattr(view, "pagination_page_size", self.page_size)` (so `view.pagination_page_size`, if present, should affect pagination). In Python tests, it is valid to patch `pagination_page_size` on a view class even if the attribute isn’t declared on the class by default, by using `unittest.mock.patch.object(..., "pagination_page_size", ..., create=True)` so the override is available for the pagination logic during the test.

Learning: In openwisp-controller’s WHOIS and estimated-location services (openwisp_controller/config/whois/ and openwisp_controller/geo/estimated_location/), these components only process public IP addresses. When reviewing logs/error/debug messages in this area, treat logging the IP address as acceptable and do not flag it as a privacy/security concern—unless the logged value can originate from non-public/private IPs in that specific code path.

Learning: In CSS files under openwisp_controller/connection/static/connection/css, when replacing hardcoded colors with CSS variables, you may reuse the same CSS variable for default and hover/focus states even if the original code used different colors. Note that UX improvements related to hover state visual feedback are out of scope for color-replacement PRs and can be addressed separately. Ensure the change remains focused on color substitution and does not introduce behavior changes beyond color values.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/admin.py`:
- Around line 816-860: Apply one consistent multitenancy rule for
organization-less batches: in openwisp_controller/connection/admin.py lines
816-860, constrain the Device querysets used by the location, group, and
organization filter choices for non-superusers to
request.user.organizations_managed, reusing the _get_commands behavior; in
openwisp_controller/connection/channels/consumers.py lines 43-48, update the
live-update authorization logic around organization_id and user.is_manager so
users permitted to open the change page receive the same updates, including the
shared-batch case.
- Around line 159-167: Update the batch-command wizard flow around to_session so
change_password credentials are not retained in batch_command_wizard after the
workflow ends. Clear the session data server-side on cancel, Back, and workflow
restart, and ensure this workflow does not use the signed_cookies session
backend.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/apps.py`:
- Around line 245-256: Update the two BatchCommand navigation labels in the menu
configuration: use “Mass commands” for the changelist entry and “Execute mass
command” for the execute entry, matching the model verbose name and execute page
title while leaving their model, name, and icon settings unchanged.
- Around line 83-87: Update the websocket handling around the group_send call so
commands created through CommandListCreateView are inserted into the device page
when no existing row is found, while preserving updates for existing commands.
Coordinate the websocket insertion with the HTTP callback so each command is
added only once.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/channels/routing.py`:
- Around line 12-15: Update BatchCommandConsumer authorization before accepting
the WebSocket by replacing any assert-based check with an explicit conditional
that rejects unauthenticated and cross-organization users while allowing
authorized users. Add tests covering unauthenticated, cross-organization, and
authorized connections.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/static/connection/js/batch-command.js`:
- Around line 264-270: Update the pagination label in the current-page rendering
to use a single gettext format string with interpolate, including currentPage
and totalPages as substitution values so translations can reorder the complete
“Page … of …” sentence.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/static/connection/js/execute-command.js`:
- Around line 219-223: Remove removeStoredExclusions(storageKey) from the submit
handler in the $form event flow so exclusions survive failed batch creation and
wizard restoration; retain the button-disabling behavior. Ensure cleanup occurs
only through clearAbandonedExclusions() when a new wizard starts.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/tests/test_models.py`:
- Around line 1142-1145: Add focused model-test assertions for the batch
containing one command and one skipped device: verify the skipped entry stores
device.name, total_devices includes both command and skipped counts,
get_skipped_summary() returns the expected single error/count tuple, and
get_skipped_rows(0, 1) returns one row marked status "skipped" with is_skipped
true. Also cover get_skipped_rows start/end bounds and get_skipped_preview using
the existing test setup.

Apply the same fix in `@openwisp_controller/connection/tests/test_api.py` at line
2261: The API scenarios need the same device-name assertion.

Timestamp: 2026-01-15T15:05:49.557Z
Learning: In Django projects, when using select_related() to traverse relations (for example, select_related("organization__config_settings")), the traversed relation must not be deferred. If you also use .only() in the same query, include the relation name or FK field (e.g., "organization" or "organization_id") in the .only() list to avoid the error "Field X cannot be both deferred and traversed using select_related at the same time." Apply this guideline to Django code in openwisp_controller/config/management/commands/clear_last_ip.py and similar modules by ensuring any select_related with an accompanying only() includes the related field names to prevent deferred/traversed conflicts.

Learning: For disabled organizations in openwisp_controller, allow certificate revocation as a cleanup operation in both the Django admin CertAdmin.revoke_action and REST API CertRevokeView, while preserving all authorization checks. Do not allow CA or certificate renewal for disabled organizations. Tests must verify that a revoked certificate is included in the CA certificate revocation list (CRL).

Learning: In this repository, flake8 enforces E501 (line too long) via setup.cfg (max-line-length = 88) while ruff ignores E501 via ruff.toml. Therefore, use '# noqa: E501' on lines that intentionally exceed 88 characters to satisfy flake8 without affecting ruff checks. This applies to Python files across the project (any .py) and is relevant for tests as well. Use sparingly and only where breaking lines is not feasible without hurting readability or functionality.

Learning: In openwisp-controller’s WHOIS and estimated-location services (openwisp_controller/config/whois/ and openwisp_controller/geo/estimated_location/), these components only process public IP addresses. When reviewing logs/error/debug messages in this area, treat logging the IP address as acceptable and do not flag it as a privacy/security concern—unless the logged value can originate from non-public/private IPs in that specific code path.

Learning: In this project’s Python test suite (files under openwisp_controller/**/tests/), don’t require or request prose/inline comments that document the breakdown of query-count changes (e.g., assertions around template/DB query counts in helpers like _verify_template_queries). Treat query-count assertions as volatile implementation details that change frequently; review should focus on whether the test asserts the expected behavior, not on explaining the specific query-count deltas in comments.

Learning: When writing or reviewing tests that override pagination behavior via OpenWispPagination.paginate_queryset(), patch `view.pagination_page_size` (not `page_size`). The method uses `getattr(view, "pagination_page_size", self.page_size)`, so tests must set the attribute on the view to affect pagination. If the view class does not define `pagination_page_size`, using `unittest.mock.patch(..., create=True)` is intentional and correct because the attribute may not exist until patched.

Learning: When reviewing this repo’s Python test suite, treat changes to the *expected* query count in `assertNumQueries(...)` calls as routine test maintenance. If a PR updates the numeric argument (e.g., in `test_config.py`, `test_api.py`, `test_admin.py`, `test_pki.py`) and the test remains consistent with the feature changes, reviewers should not flag the increased number as a performance regression that requires investigation solely because the count went up; instead, focus on whether the update is intentional and the surrounding test/code changes justify the revised expectation.

Learning: When reviewing API pagination behavior in openwisp-controller, assume `OpenWispPagination.paginate_queryset()` allows a per-view page-size override via `getattr(view, "pagination_page_size", self.page_size)` (so `view.pagination_page_size`, if present, should affect pagination). In Python tests, it is valid to patch `pagination_page_size` on a view class even if the attribute isn’t declared on the class by default, by using `unittest.mock.patch.object(..., "pagination_page_size", ..., create=True)` so the override is available for the pagination logic during the test.

Learning: In CSS files under openwisp_controller/connection/static/connection/css, when replacing hardcoded colors with CSS variables, you may reuse the same CSS variable for default and hover/focus states even if the original code used different colors. Note that UX improvements related to hover state visual feedback are out of scope for color-replacement PRs and can be addressed separately. Ensure the change remains focused on color substitution and does not introduce behavior changes beyond color values.

_execute_batch_command flow around BatchCommand.execute(**kwargs) to catch
ObjectDoesNotExist alongside ValidationError when stored group_id or location_id
targets have been deleted. In both paths, restart the workflow and provide the
existing user-facing failure handling instead of allowing the exception to
produce an HTTP 500.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/apps.py`:
- Around line 82-90: Reuse the existing serialized_data in the batch-command
branch by copying it before removing the input field, rather than serializing
instance again; keep the original payload unchanged for group_send.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/base/models.py`:
- Around line 824-838: Update the data migration for legacy skipped_devices
records so list-valued entries are converted into mappings containing the device
name and error expected by build_skipped_row(), while leaving already-converted
mappings unchanged. Add migration coverage verifying legacy values are
transformed correctly and can be consumed by get_skipped_rows().

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/channels/consumers.py`:
- Around line 51-56: Validate that the value parsed by json.loads in the
websocket message handler is an object supporting get before accessing
content.get. Route arrays, null, and scalar JSON values through the existing
warning-and-return path used for invalid JSON, while preserving normal
processing for object messages.
- Around line 71-109: Compute batch.batch_commands.count() once in the batch
state-building flow, reuse that value for affected_devices, pagination
boundaries, and total_rows, and remove the repeated count query while preserving
existing skipped-row behavior.

- Around line 238-254: Remove the name attribute from the visible input
generated by renderCustomCommandField so only the hidden input posts the input
key; update its call site to stop passing fieldName, while preserving
updateCustomCommandInput’s value-copy behavior.

In `@openwisp_controller/connection/tests/test_api.py`:
- Line 2261: Update the skipped-device assertions in the affected tests to
validate each entry’s expected name alongside its error, and extend the existing
batch detail-response assertion to cover the complete skipped_devices mapping.
Keep the current error assertions and use each fixture device’s established name
value.

Learning: In Django projects, when using select_related() to traverse relations (for example, select_related("organization__config_settings")), the traversed relation must not be deferred. If you also use .only() in the same query, include the relation name or FK field (e.g., "organization" or "organization_id") in the .only() list to avoid the error "Field X cannot be both deferred and traversed using select_related at the same time." Apply this guideline to Django code in openwisp_controller/config/management/commands/clear_last_ip.py and similar modules by ensuring any select_related with an accompanying only() includes the related field names to prevent deferred/traversed conflicts.

Learning: In this repository, flake8 enforces E501 (line too long) via setup.cfg (max-line-length = 88) while ruff ignores E501 via ruff.toml. Therefore, use '# noqa: E501' on lines that intentionally exceed 88 characters to satisfy flake8 without affecting ruff checks. This applies to Python files across the project (any .py) and is relevant for tests as well. Use sparingly and only where breaking lines is not feasible without hurting readability or functionality.

Learning: When writing or reviewing tests that override pagination behavior via OpenWispPagination.paginate_queryset(), patch `view.pagination_page_size` (not `page_size`). The method uses `getattr(view, "pagination_page_size", self.page_size)`, so tests must set the attribute on the view to affect pagination. If the view class does not define `pagination_page_size`, using `unittest.mock.patch(..., create=True)` is intentional and correct because the attribute may not exist until patched.

Learning: When reviewing this repo’s Python test suite, treat changes to the *expected* query count in `assertNumQueries(...)` calls as routine test maintenance. If a PR updates the numeric argument (e.g., in `test_config.py`, `test_api.py`, `test_admin.py`, `test_pki.py`) and the test remains consistent with the feature changes, reviewers should not flag the increased number as a performance regression that requires investigation solely because the count went up; instead, focus on whether the update is intentional and the surrounding test/code changes justify the revised expectation.

Learning: When reviewing API pagination behavior in openwisp-controller, assume `OpenWispPagination.paginate_queryset()` allows a per-view page-size override via `getattr(view, "pagination_page_size", self.page_size)` (so `view.pagination_page_size`, if present, should affect pagination). In Python tests, it is valid to patch `pagination_page_size` on a view class even if the attribute isn’t declared on the class by default, by using `unittest.mock.patch.object(..., "pagination_page_size", ..., create=True)` so the override is available for the pagination logic during the test.

12-15: Use the previously requested explicit authorization guard.

BatchCommandConsumer inherits the assert-based guard in BaseDeviceConsumer.connect(). Python removes assertions when optimization is enabled. This route therefore has the same authorization concern already reported.

Please address the inline comments.

One additional point to double check: a bug appears to have slipped through the previous review. AbstractBatchCommand.create_commands() uses QuerySet.update() to transition a batch to in-progress, which bypasses post_save and may omit the corresponding batch WebSocket update. A connected browser can continue showing idle until a child command changes state. Please double check this behavior and address it if confirmed.

We should also cover these workflow cases:

  • Incompatible scopes.
  • Stale or parallel wizards.
  • Changed targets between review and POST.
  • Exclusions across pages.
  • An empty selection.

Please add request-level admin tests for these cases and browser coverage for pagination and back-navigation state.

This appears to mutate shared class state on every confirmation request:

  • The registered DeviceAdmin defines readonly_fields as a list.
  • TimeReadonlyAdminMixin extends that inherited list in place when the dynamic instance is initialized.
  • Each initialization appends created and modified to the shared list again.

Please give the generated class an independent copy of readonly_fields.

Could two browser tabs cause an unintended command execution?

  1. In tab A, configure a command for one target set, continue to the confirmation page, and exclude one or more devices. The page displays tab A's command and devices.
  2. In tab B, configure a different command or target set and continue to its confirmation page. This overwrites batch_command_wizard in the shared server-side session.
  3. Return to tab A and click Execute. The page still displays tab A's details, but this POST reads and removes the wizard saved by tab B.

The server then executes tab B's command and targets while applying the exclusions submitted from tab A.

Please submit the displayed wizard token in a hidden field and reject a token mismatch before removing the session state. Store wizards by token if simultaneous tabs should remain supported.

The final execution set can differ from the set reviewed by the operator:

  1. The confirmation GET displays the devices currently matched by the target queryset.
  2. A device is added or moved into the organization, group, or location after that page is displayed.
  3. The POST resolves the queryset again and executes the command for that device, even though it was not present in the reviewed table.

Please store a digest of the confirmed device IDs and require confirmation again when the resolved set changes.

One remaining point is groups and locations represented only by skipped devices. These choices come exclusively from devices with Command rows, so an all-skipped batch exposes no related filters even though the result builder supports filtering skipped rows.

Please build these choices from the union of command devices and existing skipped-device IDs.

A socket reconnection can corrupt a filtered result table:

  1. request_current_state returns an unfiltered page.
  2. The client inserts every missing row without checking status, search, location, group, or organization.
  3. Rows outside the active filters appear in the result table.

Please send and apply the active filters to the state request, or do not insert absent snapshot rows while any filter is active.

Live-created device links do not match the server-rendered links. They omit #command_set-2-group, so clicking a row inserted by WebSocket lands at the top of the device form instead of Recent Commands.

This guard applies only to the status filter:

  • With search, location, group, or organization filtering, an unfiltered pushed total replaces the server-rendered count and paginator.
  • The paginator can then link to pages that do not exist in the filtered result.

Please preserve server totals whenever any filter or search is active, or send filtered totals for this connection.

A registered command whose JSON schema requires input cannot be completed through this workflow:

  • The UI renders input only for custom and change_password.
  • It clears the hidden value for every other command type.
  • The form cannot be completed for a registered command that requires input.

Please reuse the existing schema-driven command input widget for registered commands, or do not offer command types this workflow cannot populate.

One remaining point is dependent scope filtering after an organization is selected. Every managed group and location remains available, including incompatible objects from other organizations. Users then discover the incompatibility only after submission.

[WARNING]: schema_view can return an HTTP 500 for superusers and omits organization-specific command schemas

Command.get_org_schema() with no argument falls back to ORGANIZATION_COMMAND_SCHEMA.get("__all__"). When OPENWISP_CONTROLLER_ORGANIZATION_ENABLED_COMMANDS contains only organization-specific keys (no "__all__" entry), it returns None, and JsonResponse(None) raises TypeError (safe=True accepts only dicts), producing an HTTP 500 on /admin/connection/batchcommand/ui/schema.json and breaking the wizard editor for every superuser. The non-superuser branch just below already guards against this with or {}; the superuser branch should do the same.

Additionally, the superuser wizard offers every registered command type, but this response only carries the __all__ schemas, so command types enabled solely for specific organizations render in the editor without a schema (no validation UI), while the server-side form still lists them as selectable.

Suggested change
return JsonResponse(Command.get_org_schema())
return JsonResponse(Command.get_org_schema() or {})

- Use _registry instead of get_model_admin(), which is Django 5.0+
  while the CI matrix still runs Django 4.2
- Validate the UUID request parameters before they reach the queryset
  filters, a malformed id returned a 500
- Log the ValidationError swallowed when resolving the wizard targets
- Store the device name and error in skipped_devices and cap the admin
  field to a count, a per reason breakdown and ten devices, a batch
  skipping thousands of devices rendered one line each
- Render the skipped devices live: send bounded counts and previews on
  batch_status and window the skipped rows into the paginated page of
  the websocket resync
- Use gettext instead of gettext_lazy in the websocket payload, the
  lazy proxy could not be serialized by the channel layer
- Drop the page parameter from the change page filter links so that
  filtering restarts from the first page
- Keep deleted devices in the skipped rows of the unfiltered table,
  the field and the table disagreed on the count
- Add an accessible label to the device checkboxes of the confirm page
- Validate the change password fields inline, the form is submitted
  with novalidate so the length was never checked
- Restore the wizard values when going back from the confirm page
- Hide the command types the organization is not allowed to run from
  non superusers, every other entry point already filtered them
- Extract the repeated field markup of the execute page into an include
  and use SimpleNamespace for the status filter spec
- Use the locale aware format for the "Triggered by" timestamp
- Drop the full stop from the two validation messages shown in the
  skipped devices list
- Remove three redundant queries from the execute endpoint: the devices
  check of an unsaved batch, the second count of the websocket payload
  and the emptiness check after devices.set()
- Return an empty command queryset for the "skipped" status filter,
  it listed every command of the batch on top of the skipped devices
- Drop the command input from the batch websocket payloads and mask it
  in the admin, the change_password plaintext was exposed until the
  celery task cleaned it
- Reuse the affected devices count for the total rows, total_devices
  ran the same COUNT a second time on every command save
- Submit the execute form from its submit event so that pressing Enter
  runs the same validation as the button

[WARNING]: test_confirm_page_device_admin was removed without replacement, dropping the only regression coverage for the composed device admin of the confirm page

While merging the wizard and changelist test classes, this commit deletes test_confirm_page_device_admin. The removed test was the only coverage for:

  • BatchCommandAdmin.get_device_admin() (admin.py:574): preserving the columns of the registered Device admin (the openwisp-monitoring integration path), forcing the mixin's list_filter/search_fields/actions/ordering over the registered admin, and the per-class isolation of readonly_fields ({"readonly_fields": list(registered.readonly_fields)}) that guards against the mutable shared class-state bug previously flagged.
  • get_device_changelist_template() (admin.py:592): the template fallback used when another module (e.g. django-import-export) rewrites change_list_template on the instance.
  • select_device() checkbox rendering (admin.py:402).

The remaining wizard tests still exercise confirm_command_view() end-to-end, but none assert these composition behaviors, so a regression (for example, reapplying readonly_fields to the shared registered class) would no longer be caught. Consider restoring the test, adapted to the merged class, or adding equivalent coverage.

- give the confirm page device admin its own readonly_fields copy
- reject an execution whose wizard token or device set no longer matches
- check the view permission in the batch websocket consumer instead of add
- defer batch websocket broadcasts to transaction commit and log failures
- take the affected devices count from the creating loop instead of a query
- cap the command output preview to the last 100 characters
- build the batch filters from skipped devices too and page them lazily
- preserve server totals on the change page whenever a filter is active
- link live rows to the device recent commands section
- scope the group and location choices to the selected organization
- use the command schema widget for the mass command input, so any
  registered command type can be configured, reviewed and executed
- keep its generated fields and validation errors consistent with the
  rest of the admin form
- cover the admin views, the API and the models of the mass command
  workflow, reaching ~99% coverage
- add selenium tests for the wizard, the review page and the mass
  command page, with their search, filters and multitenancy

Database migration conflict on django_content_type

Hello @dee077,
(Analysis for commit 24c66de)

The test failure is caused by an IntegrityError due to a unique constraint violation on django_content_type (app_label, model):

sqlite3.IntegrityError: UNIQUE constraint failed: django_content_type.app_label, django_content_type.model

Remediation

This is usually caused by outdated migration files or duplicate content types generated during test database setup when running migrations alongside serialized test fixtures. Ensure that all app migrations are correctly ordered and depend on the latest migration state of dependencies (such as auth and contenttypes). If you recently added or modified models, run:

python manage.py makemigrations

And verify that your migration dependencies point to the correct leaf nodes.
