Some VPS configs can't get pdo_sqlite at all — Ubuntu 20.04 with Ondrej
Sury's PHP 8.3 builds doesn't ship php8.3-sqlite3, and OS upgrade isn't
always an option. Make MySQL the documented default while keeping SQLite
working where it's available.
- Schema (0001_initial.sql): TEXT → VARCHAR(N), INTEGER → BIGINT, keys
declared with explicit PRIMARY KEY (...) syntax. Drops the previously
unused request_log table (it had AUTO_INCREMENT, which spells
differently on each engine and nothing wrote to it anyway). Both
engines accept the new column types and indexes are IF NOT EXISTS for
retry-safety.
- Migrations.php: guard commit()/rollBack() with inTransaction(). MySQL
implicitly commits any open transaction the moment it sees a DDL
statement, so by the time we explicitly commit() the transaction is
already gone and PDO throws "There is no active transaction". Same
schema in PHP CREATE TABLE migrations also moved to VARCHAR/BIGINT.
- Store::upsertStep: driver-detect via PDO::ATTR_DRIVER_NAME and emit
ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE for MySQL, ON CONFLICT (...) DO UPDATE for
SQLite/PostgreSQL. VALUES(col) (vs new.col aliasing) for MySQL 5.7
compatibility.
- Db.php: when DSN is mysql:, SET NAMES utf8mb4 + sql_mode strict on
every session so we get sane behaviour regardless of server defaults.
SQLite branch (PRAGMA foreign_keys/journal_mode/synchronous) unchanged.
- config.php.example: MySQL DSN is now the default + an inline SQLite
alternative block.
- DEPLOY.md: new "Database — MySQL or SQLite" section explaining when to
pick which and showing the CREATE DATABASE / CREATE USER / GRANT
statements. Install snippet split so SQLite-only steps (mkdir data,
chmod 770) are clearly optional.
Verified end-to-end on a live MySQL 8.0.34 box: POST creates session
(201), PUT step inserts (200) and updates via the upsert branch (200),
GET returns the round-tripped state, /sites lists distinct site_keys.
SQLite path still re-applies the migration idempotently locally.

Adds a PHP/SQLite history server in server/ and refactors the plugin to
write every session change through it. Healthcheck history now survives
plugin uninstall and groups across dev + live URLs for the same engagement
via an editable site_key (defaults to the normalised host).
Server (server/):
- Front controller + hand-rolled autoloader, no framework, no composer
- SQLite default DSN; swap to MySQL by changing config.php
- Schema: healthchecks (PK id, UNIQUE (site_key, started_at)) + step_updates
(PK (healthcheck_id, step_id)) + request_log; auto-migration runner
- 8 endpoints: POST/GET/PUT healthchecks, PUT/GET step rows, GET step history
with exclude_id, GET /sites (recent), GET /step-counts (badge data)
- Bearer auth via hash_equals; HTTPS expected (plugin enforces client-side)
- DEPLOY.md with Apache/nginx vhosts, Let's Encrypt, SQLite backup cron,
and the /home/www/ perm gotcha
- dev-router.php works around PHP -S 405-ing dotted uniqid paths
Plugin:
- ATT_HC_Api HTTP client reads ATT_HC_API_URL/ATT_HC_API_KEY constants
from wp-config.php; refuses non-HTTPS with a loopback dev exception
- ATT_HC_Session is now write-through: every start/update_step/finish/
set_autocheck POSTs or PUTs to the server first, then updates the local
WP option cache. No drift possible — failures throw ATT_HC_Api_Exception
- previous() now reads from /healthchecks?include=steps and reconstructs;
the old att_hc_previous_session local option is gone
- ATT_HC_Session::resume(id) hydrates a server session into the local cache
- Start screen: editable site_key (defaults to normalise_site_url()),
datalist of recent engagements, table of in-progress sessions for the
chosen key with Resume buttons. Double-click guard on start + resume
handlers short-circuits if a session is already active
- Per-step <details> disclosure shows "Previous notes (N)" badge from
/step-counts; lazy-loads detail rows on first expand via admin-ajax,
caches via data-loaded, resets on error so user can retry
- All admin handlers catch ATT_HC_Api_Exception and surface via
att_hc_api_error transient → admin notice
- Hard config-error gate at the top of the admin page blocks the UI when
ATT_HC_API_URL/ATT_HC_API_KEY are missing or malformed
