🧑‍💻 Install

npm i @notum-cz/strapi-plugin-record-locking

yarn add @notum-cz/strapi-plugin-record-locking

🖐 ⚠️ Read before installation

1. You need to create/modify file config/plugins.js with

module.exports = ({ env }) => ({
 "record-locking": {
    enabled: true,
  },
});

2. To suppport websocket protocol configure strapi middleware

For the config/middlewares.js file you will need to either replace 'strapi::security' with middleware object (example below) or update your existing configuration accordingly... 1. Ensure that "ws:" and "wss:" are present in strapi::security config under contentSecurityPolicy.directives.connect-src 2. Rebuild strapi and test record locking features. 3. There should be no Content Security Policy error in the console.

module.exports = [
  'strapi::errors',
  {
    name: "strapi::security",
    config: {
      contentSecurityPolicy: {
        useDefaults: true,
        directives: {
          "connect-src": ["'self'", "https:",  "wss:", "http:"],
          "img-src": [
            "'self'",
            "data:",
            "blob:",
          ],
          "media-src": ["'self'", "data:", "blob:"],
          upgradeInsecureRequests: null,
        },
      },
    },
  },
  'strapi::cors', ...

This is optional but recommended as Socket.io will fallback to using http protocol and throws the following error in web console...

Refused to connect to <protocol>://<url> because it does not appear in the connect-src directive of the Content Security Policy
