# Database Schema
LinkLog stores its persistent state in SQLite. The schema is defined by the ordered migrations in [`backend/app/database.py`](backend/app/database.py), and the current schema version is **17** (`PRAGMA user_version`). Application startup applies migrations that are newer than the database's current version; existing migration entries must not be changed.
The default database file is `backend/data/linklog.db`. Set `LINKLOG_DATABASE_PATH` to use another path. Foreign-key enforcement is enabled for every application connection.

`UK` means a unique constraint. `PK_FK` means the column participates in the composite primary key and is also a foreign key. SQLite stores timestamps as `TEXT` using its timestamp defaults. Boolean values are stored as `INTEGER` values (`0` or `1`). JSON configuration and Mastodon post ID lists are stored as `TEXT`.
## Tables
### `users`
The user account and profile table.
| Column | Type | Null | Default | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | TEXT | no | | Primary key, normally a UUID. |
| `username` | TEXT | no | | Unique public username. |
| `email` | TEXT | no | | Unique primary email address. |
| `password_hash` | TEXT | no | | Password hash; plaintext passwords are not stored. |
| `avatar_url` | TEXT | yes | | Stored avatar reference. |
| `bio` | TEXT | yes | | Profile biography. |
| `is_admin` | INTEGER | no | `0` | Administrator flag. |
| `created_at` | TEXT | no | `CURRENT_TIMESTAMP` | Creation timestamp. |
| `updated_at` | TEXT | no | `CURRENT_TIMESTAMP` | Last update timestamp. |
| `email_verified` | INTEGER | no | `0` | Whether the primary email is verified. |
| `otp_secret` | TEXT | yes | | Encrypted TOTP secret when configured. |
| `otp_enabled` | INTEGER | no | `0` | Whether OTP is required at login. |
### `tokens`
Access and refresh token records. Only token hashes are persisted. `device_id` and `token_family_id` support device binding, rotation, reuse detection, and family revocation.
| Column | Type | Null | Default | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | TEXT | no | | Primary key. |
| `user_id` | TEXT | no | | FK to `users.id`. |
| `token_hash` | TEXT | no | | Unique stored token hash. |
| `token_type` | TEXT | no | `access` | Token category. |
| `expires_at` | TEXT | no | | Expiration timestamp. |
| `created_at` | TEXT | no | `CURRENT_TIMESTAMP` | Creation timestamp. |
| `revoked` | INTEGER | no | `0` | Revocation flag. |
| `device_id` | TEXT | yes | | Client/device identifier. |
| `token_family_id` | TEXT | yes | | Refresh-token family identifier. |
### `links`
Saved links and their publication state. `mastodon_post_ids` is a JSON array stored as text; the older `mastodon_post_id` column remains for migration compatibility.
| Column | Type | Null | Default | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | TEXT | no | | Primary key. |
| `user_id` | TEXT | no | | FK to `users.id`. |
| `title` | TEXT | no | | Saved page title. |
| `url` | TEXT | no | | Tracking-cleaned URL. |
| `comment` | TEXT | yes | | User comment. |
| `timestamp` | TEXT | no | | User-supplied or captured link time. |
| `created_at` | TEXT | no | `CURRENT_TIMESTAMP` | Creation timestamp. |

| `mastodon_post_id` | TEXT | yes | | Legacy single Mastodon post ID. |
| `mastodon_posted_at` | TEXT | yes | | Publication timestamp. |
| `mastodon_post_ids` | TEXT | yes | | JSON array of publication IDs. |
### `tags` and `link_tags`
`tags` contains reusable labels. `link_tags` is the many-to-many join table between links and tags. Tag names are unique, and `tags.created_by` is nullable so a deleted creator does not remove the tag.
| Table | Columns | Constraints |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `tags` | `id` TEXT, `name` TEXT, `created_at` TEXT, `created_by` TEXT | Primary key `id`; unique `name`; `created_by` references `users.id` with `ON DELETE SET NULL`. |
| `link_tags` | `link_id` TEXT, `tag_id` TEXT | Composite primary key (`link_id`, `tag_id`); both FKs cascade on delete. |
Index: `idx_link_tags_tag_id` supports reverse tag lookups. `idx_tags_created_by` supports creator-based tag management.
### `plugins`
Installed plugin definitions and global plugin configuration. `config` is JSON text.
| Column | Type | Null | Default | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | TEXT | no | | Primary key. |
| `name` | TEXT | no | | Unique plugin name. |
| `version` | TEXT | no | | Plugin version. |
| `enabled` | INTEGER | no | `1` | Enablement flag. |
| `config` | TEXT | yes | | Plugin JSON configuration. |
| `created_at` | TEXT | no | `CURRENT_TIMESTAMP` | Creation timestamp. |
| `updated_at` | TEXT | no | `CURRENT_TIMESTAMP` | Last update timestamp. |
### `user_plugin_config`
Per-user plugin settings. The pair (`user_id`, `plugin_name`) is unique; `plugin_name` is a logical plugin identifier and is not a foreign key to `plugins`.
| Column | Type | Null | Default | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | TEXT | no | | Primary key. |
| `user_id` | TEXT | no | | FK to `users.id`. |
| `plugin_name` | TEXT | no | | Plugin identifier. |
| `config` | TEXT | yes | | User-specific JSON configuration. |
| `created_at` | TEXT | no | `CURRENT_TIMESTAMP` | Creation timestamp. |
| `updated_at` | TEXT | no | `CURRENT_TIMESTAMP` | Last update timestamp. |
### Verification, reset, and OAuth state tables
These tables store one-time or short-lived workflow state. Token and state values are persisted as hashes where applicable. All user-owned rows are deleted when their user is deleted.
| Table | Important columns | Foreign key / uniqueness |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `email_verification_tokens` | `id`, `user_id`, `token_hash`, `expires_at`, `created_at` | `user_id` -> `users.id` with `ON DELETE CASCADE`; unique `token_hash`. |
| `password_reset_tokens` | `id`, `user_id`, `token_hash`, `expires_at`, `created_at` | `user_id` -> `users.id` with `ON DELETE CASCADE`; unique `token_hash`. |
| `mastodon_oauth_states` | `id`, `user_id`, `state_hash`, `instance`, `client_id`, `client_secret`, `redirect_uri`, `expires_at`, `created_at` | `user_id` -> `users.id` with `ON DELETE CASCADE`; unique `state_hash`. OAuth client secrets are encrypted by the service layer. |
Indexes: `idx_email_verification_tokens_user_id`, `idx_password_reset_tokens_user_id`, and `idx_mastodon_oauth_states_state_hash`.
### `app_settings`
Global key/value settings, including setup and mail configuration. Sensitive values are encrypted by the service layer before storage where required.
| Column | Type | Null | Default | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `name` | TEXT | no | | Primary key setting name. |
| `value` | TEXT | no | | Setting value. |
| `updated_at` | TEXT | no | `CURRENT_TIMESTAMP` | Last update timestamp. |
### `user_email_addresses`
Verified and pending alternative email addresses. The primary address remains in `users.email`; this table holds additional addresses.
| Column | Type | Null | Default | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | TEXT | no | | Primary key. |
| `user_id` | TEXT | no | | FK to `users.id` with `ON DELETE CASCADE`. |
| `email` | TEXT | no | | Globally unique alternative address. |
| `verified` | INTEGER | no | `0` | Verification flag. |
| `created_at` | TEXT | no | `CURRENT_TIMESTAMP` | Creation timestamp. |

### `email_address_verification_tokens`
Verification tokens for alternative addresses.
| Column | Type | Null | Default | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | TEXT | no | | Primary key. |
| `email_address_id` | TEXT | no | | FK to `user_email_addresses.id` with `ON DELETE CASCADE`. |
| `token_hash` | TEXT | no | | Unique token hash. |
| `expires_at` | TEXT | no | | Expiration timestamp. |
| `created_at` | TEXT | no | `CURRENT_TIMESTAMP` | Creation timestamp. |
Index: `idx_email_address_verification_tokens_address_id`.
### `otp_recovery_codes`
One-time recovery codes for users with OTP enabled. Only code hashes are stored.
| Column | Type | Null | Default | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | TEXT | no | | Primary key. |
| `user_id` | TEXT | no | | FK to `users.id` with `ON DELETE CASCADE`. |
| `code_hash` | TEXT | no | | Unique recovery-code hash. |
| `used` | INTEGER | no | `0` | Consumption flag. |
| `created_at` | TEXT | no | `CURRENT_TIMESTAMP` | Creation timestamp. |
| `used_at` | TEXT | yes | | Consumption timestamp. |
Index: `idx_otp_recovery_codes_user_id`.
### `security_audit_events`
Security-relevant audit events. `actor_id` is nullable so an account deletion does not remove the audit record; it becomes `NULL` through `ON DELETE SET NULL`.
| Column | Type | Null | Default | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | TEXT | no | | Primary key. |
| `actor_id` | TEXT | yes | | FK to `users.id`, `ON DELETE SET NULL`. |
