📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds WHOIS Lookup and Estimated Location functionality across config and geo apps: new abstract model AbstractWHOISInfo and swappable WHOISInfo model; organization-level config fields (whois_enabled, estimated_location_enabled) with validation; WHOISService (GeoIP2 client, caching, lookup orchestration); Celery tasks to fetch, update, and delete WHOIS records and to manage estimated locations; signal wiring and AppConfig.ready() hooks; admin UI assets/templates and API serializer/filter mixins; management commands, migrations, requirements (geoip2), documentation, and extensive tests and test utilities.

8-15: Consider using super().setUp() with flag override instead of skipping parent setUp.

The current approach of calling super(CreateWHOISMixin, self).setUp() to skip CreateWHOISMixin.setUp() works, but it's fragile if the inheritance chain changes.

An alternative would be to add a flag to CreateWHOISMixin.setUp() that allows subclasses to control whether to create the OrganizationConfigSettings, or to refactor CreateWHOISMixin to accept estimated_location_enabled as a parameter.

🔎 Alternative approach
 class TestEstimatedLocationMixin(CreateWHOISMixin):
+    # Override to include estimated_location_enabled
+    estimated_location_enabled = True
+
     def setUp(self):
-        super(CreateWHOISMixin, self).setUp()
+        # Skip CreateWHOISMixin.setUp() to avoid duplicate OrganizationConfigSettings
+        super(CreateWHOISMixin, self).setUp()  # Call grandparent's setUp
         OrganizationConfigSettings.objects.create(
             organization=self._get_org(),
             whois_enabled=True,
             estimated_location_enabled=True,
         )

Or refactor CreateWHOISMixin to be more flexible with an estimated_location_enabled class attribute.

openwisp_controller/geo/api/filters.py (1)

25-26: Remove unused parameter or prefix with underscore.

The name parameter is required by the django-filter method signature but not used in the implementation. Prefix it with an underscore to indicate it's intentionally unused.

🔎 Proposed fix
-    def filter_is_estimated(self, queryset, name, value):
+    def filter_is_estimated(self, queryset, _name, value):
         return queryset.filter(devicelocation__location__is_estimated=value)
openwisp_controller/geo/estimated_location/tests/tests.py (1)

173-173: Consider removing unused noqa directives.

Static analysis has identified several unused blanket noqa directives at lines 173, 287, 290, and 293. These can be safely removed for cleaner code.

🔎 Proposed cleanup
-    @mock.patch(
-        "openwisp_controller.geo.estimated_location.tasks.manage_estimated_locations.delay"  # noqa
-    )
+    @mock.patch(
+        "openwisp_controller.geo.estimated_location.tasks.manage_estimated_locations.delay"
+    )

Apply similar changes to lines 287, 290, and 293.

openwisp_controller/config/whois/utils.py (1)

44-55: Consider handling ObjectDoesNotExist exception.

If device is a primary key and the device doesn't exist in the database, Device.objects.get(pk=device) will raise ObjectDoesNotExist. Since this function is likely called from async tasks, unhandled exceptions could cause task failures without clear error messages.

🔎 Proposed fix
 def send_whois_task_notification(device, notify_type, actor=None):
     Device = load_model("config", "Device")
     if not isinstance(device, Device):
-        device = Device.objects.get(pk=device)
+        try:
+            device = Device.objects.get(pk=device)
+        except Device.DoesNotExist:
+            return
     notify_details = MESSAGE_MAP[notify_type]
     notify.send(
         sender=actor or device,
openwisp_controller/geo/base/models.py (1)

19-19: Annotate mutable class attribute with ClassVar.

Per static analysis, mutable class attributes should be annotated with typing.ClassVar to make it clear they're not instance attributes.

🔎 Proposed fix
+from typing import ClassVar
+
 class BaseLocation(OrgMixin, AbstractLocation):
-    _changed_checked_fields = ["is_estimated", "address", "geometry"]
+    _changed_checked_fields: ClassVar[list[str]] = ["is_estimated", "address", "geometry"]
openwisp_controller/config/base/whois.py (2)

30-30: Redundant db_index=True on primary key field.

Primary key fields are automatically indexed, so db_index=True is unnecessary.

🔎 Proposed fix
-    ip_address = models.GenericIPAddressField(db_index=True, primary_key=True)
+    ip_address = models.GenericIPAddressField(primary_key=True)

81-84: Use exception chaining for better debugging.

Per static analysis, use raise ... from e to preserve the original traceback when re-raising exceptions.

🔎 Proposed fix
             except ValueError as e:
-                raise ValidationError(
+                raise ValidationError(
                     {"cidr": _("Invalid CIDR format: %(error)s") % {"error": str(e)}}
-                )
+                ) from e
openwisp_controller/config/whois/tests/tests.py (1)

174-174: Replace getattr with direct attribute access.

Per static analysis, using getattr with a constant attribute value provides no benefit over direct attribute access.

🔎 Proposed fix
-            self.assertEqual(getattr(org_settings_obj, "whois_enabled"), True)
+            self.assertEqual(org_settings_obj.whois_enabled, True)
-            self.assertEqual(getattr(org_settings_obj, "whois_enabled"), False)
+            self.assertEqual(org_settings_obj.whois_enabled, False)
-            self.assertEqual(
-                getattr(org_settings_obj, "whois_enabled"),
-                app_settings.WHOIS_ENABLED,
-            )
+            self.assertEqual(
+                org_settings_obj.whois_enabled,
+                app_settings.WHOIS_ENABLED,
+            )

Also applies to: 180-180, 191-191

167-179: Use exception chaining to preserve traceback context.

The static analysis correctly identifies that the exception handling can be improved:

  1. Line 177: Use raise ... from e to preserve the original exception context
  2. Line 179: Use bare raise to re-raise the original RequestException unmodified
🔎 Proposed fix
         except (
             errors.AddressNotFoundError,
             errors.AuthenticationError,
             errors.OutOfQueriesError,
             errors.PermissionRequiredError,
         ) as e:
             exc_type = type(e)
             message = EXCEPTION_MESSAGES.get(exc_type)
             if exc_type is errors.AddressNotFoundError:
                 message = message.format(ip_address=ip_address)
-            raise exc_type(message)
+            raise exc_type(message) from e

19-19: Verify geoip2 version aligns with project Python version requirements.

geoip2's latest version is 5.2.0, released Nov 20, 2025, but the PR pins version 5.1.0. Version 5.2.0 requires Python 3.10 or greater, while 5.1.0 requires Python 3.9+. No known security vulnerabilities were found in the geoip2 package, and the version specified here is safe.

If the project supports Python 3.10+, consider updating to geoip2~=5.2.0 to gain improvements including maxminddb 3.0.0 with free-threading support and a new build backend. Otherwise, the current constraint is acceptable for Python 3.9 environments.

openwisp_controller/config/migrations/0061_config_checksum_db.py (1)

15-15: LGTM! Follows Django migration best practices.

Using apps.get_model() instead of swapper.load_model() is the recommended Django approach for data migrations. This ensures the migration uses the historical model state and makes the migration more predictable and maintainable.

openwisp_controller/config/apps.py (1)

32-32: LGTM!

The WHOIS handlers are correctly integrated into the app initialization. The connect_whois_handlers() function has an early return guard when WHOIS_CONFIGURED is False (as seen in the relevant snippet from handlers.py), so this won't affect deployments without WHOIS configured.

Also applies to: 54-54

openwisp_controller/config/static/whois/css/whois.css (1)

1-113: LGTM!

The CSS is well-structured with:

  • CSS custom properties for maintainability
  • Clean table styling with proper border-radius handling
  • Accessible interactive states (hover on info icon)
  • Modern mask-based icon approach for the globe

Note: var(--border-color) on lines 38, 43, and 47 is assumed to be defined in the OpenWISP admin theme.

openwisp_controller/config/management/commands/clear_last_ip.py (2)

22-22: The *args parameter is conventional for Django management commands.

The static analysis hint about unused *args is a false positive. This is the standard Django management command signature and maintaining it ensures compatibility with the base class contract.


38-48: Clarify the intended behavior: should the command clear last_ip for ALL active devices or selectively preserve those with WHOIS records?

The implementation excludes devices with matching WHOISInfo records from the update, preserving their last_ip. However, the help text states the command "Clears the last IP address (if set) for every active device across all organizations," which suggests it should clear all active devices regardless of WHOIS status.

The test only covers devices without WHOIS data, so this selective behavior is untested. Either:

  • Update the help text to document that devices with WHOIS records are preserved, or
  • Remove the WHOIS exclusion (lines 40-46) to clear all active devices as the help text states.
docs/developer/extending.rst (1)

347-347: LGTM!

The swapper configuration for CONFIG_WHOISINFO_MODEL is correctly documented, following the same pattern as other model configurations in this section.

docs/index.rst (1)

51-52: LGTM!

The new documentation pages for WHOIS and Estimated Location are correctly added to the table of contents, placed logically after feature documentation and before API/settings references.

openwisp_controller/config/tests/test_device.py (1)

527-532: LGTM!

The test correctly extends the field change detection coverage to include last_ip. The IP address used (172.217.22.14) is a valid public IP, which aligns with the WHOIS feature's requirement to track public IP addresses for geolocation lookup.

openwisp_controller/config/controller/views.py (1)

156-158: LGTM. The code logic is correct. The update_whois_info() method executes on every checksum request when the IP hasn't changed, and does query the database to fetch the existing WHOIS record. However, the is_whois_enabled check is cached (30-day timeout), and the method returns early if WHOIS is disabled. More importantly, the async task is only queued when the existing record is older than the refresh threshold (default 14 days), so the DB query impact in high-traffic scenarios is limited to a simple lookup that exits early in most cases.

openwisp_controller/geo/apps.py (1)

11-11: LGTM!

The import and registration call for estimated location notification types are properly placed. The function is invoked during app initialization in the ready() method, which is the correct Django lifecycle hook for this type of setup.

Also applies to: 26-26

tests/openwisp2/sample_config/models.py (1)

16-16: LGTM!

The WHOISInfo test model follows the same pattern as other concrete models in this file (Device, Config, Template, etc.), inheriting from both DetailsModel and the abstract base AbstractWHOISInfo. This is consistent with the swappable model pattern used throughout the codebase.

Also applies to: 117-123

openwisp_controller/config/templates/admin/config/change_form.html (1)

22-24: LGTM!

The conditional initialization of deviceWHOISDetails follows the same pattern as owCommandApiEndpoint above it. The | safe filter is appropriate here since the value is serialized JSON from the server side, and the conditional check ensures the variable is only defined when the data is available.

docs/user/estimated-location.rst (1)

1-87: LGTM!

The documentation is comprehensive and well-structured. It clearly explains:

  • Feature defaults and prerequisites
  • Trigger conditions for the feature
  • Behavior with different device/location scenarios
  • Visibility of estimated status in UI and API
  • Management of older records

The writing is clear and includes appropriate cross-references to other documentation sections.

openwisp_controller/geo/tests/test_admin.py (1)

140-148: LGTM!

The test correctly verifies that the is_estimated checkbox is not present in the Location admin change form when WHOIS is not configured. The test follows the established patterns in this file and uses appropriate helper methods.

openwisp_controller/geo/migrations/0004_location_is_estimated.py (1)

6-21: LGTM!

The migration correctly adds the is_estimated BooleanField to the Location model with appropriate defaults and help text. The structure follows standard Django migration patterns.

Note: The Ruff static analysis hints about ClassVar annotations are false positives—Django migrations use plain class attributes for dependencies and operations, and this is the standard and correct pattern.

openwisp_controller/config/tests/test_api.py (1)

253-255: LGTM!

The tests now consistently patch WHOIS_CONFIGURED to False when checking query counts. This ensures the tests have predictable and stable query counts regardless of whether the WHOIS feature is enabled in the test environment, which is important for maintaining reliable test assertions.

The pattern is applied consistently across all three affected tests.

Also applies to: 401-403, 413-415

docs/user/rest-api.rst (2)

71-86: LGTM! Clear documentation of new WHOIS and estimated location features.

The documentation properly describes the conditional availability of WHOIS details and estimated location filters, with appropriate references to the feature documentation pages.


555-573: Good use of RST replacement directives to avoid duplication.

The |est_loc| replacement pattern allows consistent referencing of the Estimated Location feature across multiple endpoints without duplicating text.

tests/openwisp2/settings.py (2)

211-217: LGTM! Proper configuration for GEOIP settings.

The environment variable pattern with empty string defaults is appropriate for optional WHOIS feature configuration.


274-274: LGTM! Swappable model mapping follows existing pattern.

The CONFIG_WHOISINFO_MODEL mapping is consistent with other swappable model configurations in this test settings file.

openwisp_controller/config/models.py (2)

13-13: LGTM! Import follows the established pattern.

The import of AbstractWHOISInfo is consistent with other abstract model imports in this file.


117-124: LGTM! Swappable model implementation follows established pattern.

The WHOISInfo model correctly implements the swappable pattern used throughout OpenWISP, consistent with other models like Device, Config, and Template.

docs/user/settings.rst (1)

765-842: LGTM! Comprehensive and well-structured documentation.

The WHOIS-related settings documentation is thorough, including:

  • Clear descriptions and default values
  • Proper warnings about configuration requirements
  • Visual aids (screenshots)
  • Cross-references to related features

The documentation quality is consistent with the rest of the file.

openwisp_controller/geo/api/views.py (2)

13-13: LGTM! Import added for WHOIS configuration check.

The import of config_app_settings is necessary for the conditional filter logic below.


49-54: Backward compatibility is not at risk; the __init__ signature change is safe.

DjangoFilterBackend (from django_filters.rest_framework) instantiates filtersets internally using keyword arguments only. The filter is never directly instantiated with positional arguments—it appears exclusively as filterset_class in DRF views. The * enforcement for keyword-only arguments is fully compatible with this integration pattern.

The conditional addition of the is_estimated filter when WHOIS is configured is a clean feature-toggling approach.

docs/user/whois.rst (1)

1-128: LGTM! Excellent comprehensive documentation for the WHOIS feature.

This documentation is well-structured and covers all essential aspects:

  • Clear indication that the feature is disabled by default
  • Detailed setup instructions with MaxMind integration
  • Comprehensive trigger conditions and record management logic
  • Multiple viewing locations with screenshots
  • Proper cross-references to related settings

The documentation quality is excellent and will help users understand and configure this feature effectively.

openwisp_controller/geo/templates/admin/geo/location/change_form.html (1)

1-11: The estimated_configured context variable is properly provided.

The variable is set in the LocationAdmin.change_view method at openwisp_controller/geo/admin.py:123-125. It's calculated via WHOISService.check_estimate_location_configured(org_id) and passed to the template through extra_context, ensuring the template has access to it.

openwisp_controller/geo/estimated_location/utils.py (1)

1-6: Acknowledge the reliance on private APIs from openwisp_notifications, but note this is an established pattern in the codebase.

This function uses two private APIs from openwisp_notifications:

  1. _get_object_link() - private function from openwisp_notifications.utils
  2. obj._related_object(field) - private method on notification objects

While the leading underscore indicates these are private/internal APIs, this same pattern is consistently used in other notification target URL functions across the codebase (connection/utils.py and config/utils.py), suggesting this is an intentional design. However, be aware that relying on private APIs carries the risk of breakage if the openwisp_notifications package implementation changes.

openwisp_controller/geo/api/filters.py (1)

28-37: LGTM! Clean conditional filter registration.

The dynamic filter registration correctly gates the geo_is_estimated filter behind the WHOIS_CONFIGURED setting, maintaining consistency with the admin filter implementation.

openwisp_controller/config/api/serializers.py (1)

12-12: LGTM! Clean mixin integration.

The WHOIS mixins are correctly integrated into the serializer inheritance chain, enabling conditional WHOIS data exposure in API responses without modifying existing serializer logic.

Also applies to: 224-224, 278-278

tests/openwisp2/sample_config/migrations/0009_organizationconfigsettings_approximate_location_enabled_and_more.py (1)

9-35: LGTM! Standard Django migration.

The migration correctly adds the estimated_location_enabled toggle and coordinates field to support the estimated location feature. The Ruff ClassVar warnings are false positives—Django migration class attributes follow established framework patterns.

tests/openwisp2/sample_geo/migrations/0004_location_is_estimated.py (1)

6-21: LGTM! Standard test migration.

The migration correctly mirrors the main app's is_estimated field addition. The Ruff ClassVar warnings are false positives for Django migrations.

openwisp_controller/config/whois/handlers.py (1)

7-29: LGTM! Clean conditional signal wiring.

The signal handler registration correctly:

  • Guards against unnecessary wiring when WHOIS is not configured
  • Uses unique dispatch_uid values to prevent duplicate connections
  • Wires appropriate cleanup and cache invalidation handlers
openwisp_controller/config/migrations/0062_whoisinfo.py (1)

11-83: LGTM! Well-structured WHOIS model migration.

The migration correctly:

  • Creates the WHOISInfo model with appropriate fields for WHOIS data storage
  • Uses ip_address as the primary key, which is suitable for this use case
  • Implements the swappable pattern for extensibility
  • Adds the whois_enabled toggle to organization settings

The Ruff ClassVar warnings are false positives for Django migrations.

openwisp_controller/config/whois/mixins.py (1)

5-24: LGTM! Well-designed serializer mixins.

The WHOIS mixins correctly:

  • Conditionally inject whois_info into device representations based on configuration
  • Handle missing WHOIS data gracefully by returning None
  • Provide both detailed (WHOISMixin) and brief (BriefWHOISMixin) variants
  • Use proper double-gating (configuration + per-device enablement)
openwisp_controller/geo/estimated_location/mixins.py (2)

4-16: LGTM! Clean conditional field exposure.

The EstimatedLocationMixin correctly conditionally includes the is_estimated field based on organization configuration, ensuring the field is only exposed when the estimated location feature is enabled.


19-30: LGTM! GeoJSON-specific mixin correctly handles properties structure.

The super(EstimatedLocationMixin, self) call on line 25 intentionally skips EstimatedLocationMixin.to_representation to avoid double-processing, then correctly places is_estimated into the GeoJSON properties object. This pattern accommodates the different structure of GeoJSON serialization where fields belong in properties rather than at the top level.

openwisp_controller/config/whois/utils.py (1)

58-78: LGTM!

The get_whois_info function has proper guard clauses for configuration checks, device existence, and organization settings. The use of select_related for prefetching is appropriate.

openwisp_controller/config/base/multitenancy.py (2)

37-46: LGTM!

The FallbackBooleanChoiceField usage with proper fallbacks to app settings is appropriate for organization-level overrides.


69-88: LGTM!

The validation logic correctly enforces the dependency chain: WHOIS must be configured before enabling, and estimated location requires WHOIS to be enabled. The error messages are clear and actionable.

openwisp_controller/geo/base/models.py (1)

60-87: LGTM with note on the save logic.

The save method correctly handles the estimated location flag, clearing it when address/geometry changes manually. The _set_estimated parameter provides a clean way to differentiate system vs manual updates.

openwisp_controller/config/settings.py (1)

71-85: LGTM!

The WHOIS configuration settings are well-structured with proper validation. The dependency chain (WHOIS_CONFIGURED → WHOIS_ENABLED → ESTIMATED_LOCATION_ENABLED) is correctly enforced at startup via ImproperlyConfigured exceptions.

openwisp_controller/geo/estimated_location/tasks.py (2)

11-73: LGTM!

The helper function correctly handles three scenarios: attaching existing location, updating current location, and creating new location. The explicit check if attached_devices_exists is False is appropriate since None has different semantics.


76-134: LGTM!

The task correctly handles edge cases including multiple devices with the same IP (proxy scenarios) with appropriate error logging and notifications. The logic flow is clear and well-documented.

openwisp_controller/config/base/whois.py (2)

17-99: LGTM on the model design.

Using ip_address as the primary key is a good design choice to avoid duplicate WHOIS records. The validation in clean() properly handles private IPs, CIDR format, and coordinate ranges.


101-129: LGTM!

The static handlers correctly manage WHOIS lifecycle. The **kwargs parameters are required for Django signal handler compatibility even if unused.

openwisp_controller/config/whois/tests/utils.py (2)

14-41: LGTM!

The CreateWHOISMixin provides a clean factory method with sensible defaults, and the setUp correctly initializes the organization config settings for WHOIS-enabled tests.


44-155: LGTM!

The WHOISTransactionMixin provides comprehensive test coverage for various WHOIS task scenarios including public/private IPs, cache interactions, and DeviceChecksumView integrations. The subtests are well-organized and descriptive.

openwisp_controller/config/whois/tests/tests.py (4)

33-126: LGTM!

Excellent test coverage for WHOIS configuration settings including signal connection/disconnection, admin UI field visibility, and ImproperlyConfigured exception handling.


286-340: LGTM!

Comprehensive validation tests for WHOISInfo model fields covering ISP length, private IP rejection, timezone length, CIDR format, ASN, and coordinate range validations.


342-680: LGTM!

The transaction tests thoroughly cover WHOIS task triggering, creation, update, and deletion scenarios across multiple organizations. The failure notification tests properly verify error handling and logging.


682-753: LGTM!

The Selenium tests properly verify UI visibility of WHOIS details under various configuration states. The _assert_no_js_errors helper ensures no JavaScript errors occur during UI interactions.

openwisp_controller/config/admin.py (6)

34-34: LGTM!

Import for get_whois_info is correctly added to support WHOIS data in the admin context.


53-53: LGTM!

The whois_prefix variable follows the same pattern as the existing prefix variable for organizing static assets.


565-579: LGTM! Good approach for test isolation.

Converting from class Media to a property allows runtime evaluation of app_settings.WHOIS_CONFIGURED, enabling proper test isolation. The conditional inclusion of WHOIS assets is clean.


933-936: LGTM!

Clean implementation that embeds WHOIS details directly in the context, avoiding an extra frontend request. The walrus operator usage is appropriate here.


1373-1389: LGTM!

The ConfigSettingsInline dynamically includes fields based on feature configuration, which is a clean approach. The get_fields method correctly gates WHOIS-related fields behind WHOIS_CONFIGURED and registration fields behind REGISTRATION_ENABLED.

Note: The static analysis hints about unused request and obj parameters are false positives—these are required by Django's admin API signature.


1392-1394: LGTM!

The ConfigSettingsInline is correctly inserted at position 0, and limits_inline_position is updated to maintain proper ordering.

openwisp_controller/geo/admin.py (4)

15-16: LGTM!

Imports for config_app_settings and WHOISService are correctly added to support the WHOIS-aware behavior in the geo admin.


150-154: LGTM!

The __init__ override correctly updates the filter title when WHOIS is configured. The unused parameter warnings are false positives—these are required by Django's SimpleListFilter API.


155-182: LGTM with a note on filter logic.

The filter logic correctly handles:

  • Estimated: Filters locations marked as estimated
  • Indoor/Outdoor: Filters by type while excluding estimated locations
  • No Location / False: Falls through to the existing devicelocation__isnull check

The early return on lines 169-171 prevents processing when no filter value is selected, which is appropriate.


105-111: No issue. Django's ModelAdmin.get_fields() returns a list, not a tuple, so calling fields.remove() is safe and correct. Tests confirm this code works as intended.

openwisp_controller/config/whois/service.py (8)

19-34: LGTM!

The EXCEPTION_MESSAGES mapping provides clear, actionable error messages for different GeoIP2 exceptions, which will help users diagnose configuration issues.


45-57: LGTM!

The get_geoip_client factory method correctly configures the GeoIP2 web service client with the geolite.info host for GeoLite2 database access.


66-74: LGTM!

The is_valid_public_ip_address method correctly uses Python's ipaddress module to check if an IP is globally routable, with proper exception handling for invalid IP formats.


183-200: LGTM!

The response data extraction correctly handles potentially None values with appropriate fallbacks. The Point is correctly constructed with SRID 4326 (WGS84), which is standard for GPS coordinates.


202-220: LGTM!

The _need_whois_lookup method correctly orders conditions from cheapest to most expensive:

  1. Validate IP address (in-memory check)
  2. Check if existing WHOIS data is fresh (single DB query)
  3. Check organization settings (potentially cached)

This optimization avoids unnecessary database queries.


244-267: LGTM!

Using transaction.on_commit ensures tasks are only scheduled after the transaction successfully commits, preventing orphaned tasks or race conditions. The separation between WHOIS lookup and estimated location management is well-handled.


282-301: LGTM!

The _create_or_update_whois method correctly:

  1. Tracks which fields changed for selective updates
  2. Uses save(update_fields=...) for efficient partial updates
  3. Calls full_clean() for validation on new instances
  4. Uses force_insert=True for new records

303-350: LGTM with observation on notification placement.

The method correctly handles three scenarios:

  1. No location exists: Create new estimated location
  2. Shared estimated location: Create new location for this device
  3. Device's own estimated location: Update in place

The notification on line 345 is sent outside the transaction.atomic() block, which means DB changes are committed even if notification fails. This is likely intentional to avoid rollback on notification failure.

Converting Media to a property enables dynamic asset loading based on WHOIS_CONFIGURED, and the comment correctly explains the testability benefit.

The static analysis tool suggests using iterable unpacking for better performance (line 579-583):

19-19: Dependency addition looks good.

The geoip2 package provides an API for the GeoIP2 and GeoLite2 web services and databases, which aligns with the PR's WHOIS and geolocation features. The version pinning strategy (~=5.1.0) is consistent with the rest of the file.

Note: Version 5.2.0 is available and newer, but requires Python 3.10+, while 5.1.0 requires Python 3.9 or greater. Verify your project's Python version support to determine if upgrading to 5.2.0 in the future would be beneficial.

openwisp_controller/config/base/device.py (6)

1-1: LGTM!

The import is necessary for the whois_service cached property added later in the file.


22-22: LGTM!

The import is necessary for the WHOIS integration added in this PR.


289-290: LGTM!

The placement after super().save() is correct, ensuring the device is persisted before processing WHOIS data. The conditional check and creating parameter are appropriate.


307-313: LGTM! Defensive improvement.

The callable check prevents AttributeError when dynamically invoking field-specific change handlers. This is a good defensive coding practice.


524-530: LGTM!

The cached_property decorator ensures the WHOISService instance is created once and reused, which is appropriate for this stateless service wrapper.


532-543: LGTM!

The method correctly:

  • Guards against deferred fields
  • Distinguishes between IP changes (triggers full processing) and no change (checks for stale data)
  • Updates the initial value for subsequent comparisons
openwisp_controller/config/admin.py (4)

34-34: LGTM!

The import is necessary for injecting WHOIS details into the admin context.


53-53: LGTM!

The constant follows the existing pattern for organizing static asset paths.


942-945: LGTM!

The walrus operator usage is appropriate, and the comment clearly explains the optimization of avoiding an additional AJAX request from JavaScript.


1382-1403: LGTM!

The form and inline implementation correctly expose organization-level WHOIS and registration settings. The dynamic get_fields method appropriately shows fields based on feature configuration.

Note: The static analysis warnings about unused method parameters (line 1391) are false positives—these parameters are part of Django's admin method signature.

openwisp_controller/config/controller/views.py (1)

156-158: The checksum view is cached for 30 days via @cache_memoize, so the WHOIS check does not run frequently. The view logic only executes on cache misses (first request or after invalidation), not on every request. Additionally, update_whois_info() internally caches WHOIS data with the same 30-day timeout. The performance concern is not valid given the existing caching infrastructure.

This is almost ready, we have tested it enough to give me confidence to deploy it on a prod system so we can see how it behaves with real data (doing this now).

I asked Code Rabbit to help me review this and I think it spotted 3 minor issues that will be good to double check before merging.

Pull request overview

This PR implements the WHOIS Information and IP Address-Based Geolocation feature for OpenWISP as part of a GSoC 2025 project. The feature automatically fetches WHOIS information for devices based on their public IP addresses and creates/updates estimated geographic locations using MaxMind's GeoIP2 service.

Key Changes:

  • Adds WHOIS lookup functionality with automatic refresh for stale records
  • Implements estimated location creation/update based on IP geolocation data
  • Adds organization-level settings to enable/disable features
  • Exposes WHOIS and estimated location data via REST APIs and admin interface

Circular import risk: This file imports from openwisp_controller.geo.estimated_location.tasks which in turn imports from the current module via openwisp_controller.config.whois.utils. This circular dependency could cause import issues at runtime. Consider restructuring to avoid the circular import, possibly by moving the notification utility function to a shared location or using lazy imports.

The _set_estimated parameter is used to bypass the automatic clearing of the is_estimated flag when coordinates are modified. While this pattern works, it's not a standard Django pattern. Consider using a context manager or a dedicated method like save_as_estimated() to make the intent clearer and avoid potential misuse of this private parameter in the public save method signature.

This line calls super(CreateWHOISMixin, self).setUp() which skips the immediate parent class in the MRO. This should be super().setUp() or if you specifically need to skip the immediate parent, it should be documented why. The current implementation may cause issues with multiple inheritance and is generally considered an anti-pattern in Python.

In @openwisp_controller/config/management/commands/clear_last_ip.py:
- Line 22: The unused variadic parameter in the handle method should be prefixed
to signal it's intentionally unused: change the signature from def handle(self,
*args, **options): to def handle(self, *_args, **options): so callers are
unaffected but linters/readers know the parameter is unused; update only the
handle function signature (no other code changes needed).
- Line 38: The query uses Device.objects.filter(...).only("last_ip") which
defers other fields and causes N+1 queries when Device.save() accesses related
fields (e.g., organization.config_settings.shared_secret); remove
.only("last_ip") and instead eager-load the relations needed by Device.save() by
replacing that call with something like
Device.objects.filter(_is_deactivated=False).select_related("organization__config_settings")
so the organization and its config_settings are fetched in the same query before
iterating and calling device.save().
- Around line 40-46: Change the management command help text in clear_last_ip.py
(the Command class help string) to state that it clears last_ip only for active
devices that do NOT already have a WHOISInfo record, and add a short inline
comment above the devices = devices.exclude(...
last_ip__in=Subquery(...WHOISInfo...)) line explaining that devices with
existing WHOISInfo are intentionally preserved so they won't re-query WHOIS;
also update the whois.rst documentation to replace the phrase "all active
devices across organizations" with the precise behavior (clears last_ip for
active devices lacking WHOISInfo across organizations) and include the rationale
that preserving existing WHOISInfo avoids unnecessary re-lookup.
🧹 Nitpick comments (7)
openwisp_controller/config/whois/tests/tests.py (6)

31-31: Consider moving queryset initialization into test methods.

The module-level notification_qs = Notification.objects.all() creates a queryset at import time, which could lead to stale results across tests. Django querysets are lazy, but defining them at module level can cause confusion.

🔎 Recommended approach

Move the queryset definition into the test methods where it's used, or define it as a property/method in the test class:

-notification_qs = Notification.objects.all()

Then in test methods where needed:

notification_qs = Notification.objects.all()

Or as a test class method:

def get_notification_qs(self):
    return Notification.objects.all()

39-54: Consider extracting dispatch_uid constants to avoid duplication.

The _disconnect_signals method duplicates dispatch_uid strings that are already defined in handlers.py (lines 14, 19, 24). If these strings change, both locations need updating.

🔎 Proposed refactor

Extract these constants into a shared location (e.g., a constants module or the handlers module):

# In handlers.py or a new constants.py
DEVICE_DELETE_WHOIS_INFO_DISPATCH_UID = "device.delete_whois_info"
INVALIDATE_ORG_CONFIG_CACHE_SAVE_DISPATCH_UID = "invalidate_org_config_cache_on_org_config_save"
INVALIDATE_ORG_CONFIG_CACHE_DELETE_DISPATCH_UID = "invalidate_org_config_cache_on_org_config_delete"

Then reference them in both locations:

dispatch_uid=DEVICE_DELETE_WHOIS_INFO_DISPATCH_UID

158-165: Simplify error message assertion.

The error handling pattern using try/except with self.fail() is unnecessarily complex. Django's assertRaisesMessage or direct assertion on the exception is clearer.

🔎 Simpler approach
         with self.subTest("Test WHOIS not configured does not allow enabling WHOIS"):
             with mock.patch.object(
                 app_settings, "WHOIS_CONFIGURED", False
             ), self.assertRaises(ValidationError) as context_manager:
                 org_settings_obj.full_clean()
-            try:
-                self.assertEqual(
-                    context_manager.exception.message_dict["whois_enabled"][0],
-                    "WHOIS_GEOIP_ACCOUNT and WHOIS_GEOIP_KEY must be set "
-                    + "before enabling WHOIS feature.",
-                )
-            except AssertionError:
-                self.fail("ValidationError message not equal to expected message.")
+            self.assertEqual(
+                context_manager.exception.message_dict["whois_enabled"][0],
+                "WHOIS_GEOIP_ACCOUNT and WHOIS_GEOIP_KEY must be set "
+                "before enabling WHOIS feature.",
+            )

Apply the same pattern to lines 325-331, 338-346, and 362-368.


175-175: Replace getattr with direct attribute access.

Using getattr with a constant attribute name is unnecessary and flagged by Ruff (B009). Direct attribute access is clearer and no less safe.

🔎 Proposed fix
         with self.subTest("Test setting WHOIS enabled to True"):
             org_settings_obj.whois_enabled = True
             org_settings_obj.save(update_fields=["whois_enabled"])
             org_settings_obj.refresh_from_db(fields=["whois_enabled"])
-            self.assertEqual(getattr(org_settings_obj, "whois_enabled"), True)
+            self.assertEqual(org_settings_obj.whois_enabled, True)

         with self.subTest("Test setting WHOIS enabled to False"):
             org_settings_obj.whois_enabled = False
             org_settings_obj.save(update_fields=["whois_enabled"])
             org_settings_obj.refresh_from_db(fields=["whois_enabled"])
-            self.assertEqual(getattr(org_settings_obj, "whois_enabled"), False)
+            self.assertEqual(org_settings_obj.whois_enabled, False)

         with self.subTest(
             "Test setting WHOIS enabled to None fallbacks to global setting"
         ):
             # reload app_settings to ensure latest settings are applied
             importlib.reload(app_settings)
             org_settings_obj.whois_enabled = None
             org_settings_obj.save(update_fields=["whois_enabled"])
             org_settings_obj.refresh_from_db(fields=["whois_enabled"])
             self.assertEqual(
-                getattr(org_settings_obj, "whois_enabled"),
+                org_settings_obj.whois_enabled,
                 app_settings.WHOIS_ENABLED,
             )

Based on learnings, this aligns with static analysis recommendations.

374-379: Inconsistent mock path usage.

Class-level constants are defined for mock paths (lines 374-379), but line 500 uses a different constant _WHOIS_GEOIP_CLIENT instead of the module-level path string. This inconsistency could cause confusion.

🔎 Proposed fix

Use the module-level constant consistently:

     _WHOIS_GEOIP_CLIENT = (
         "openwisp_controller.config.whois.service.geoip2_webservice.Client"
     )
     _WHOIS_TASKS_INFO_LOGGER = "openwisp_controller.config.whois.tasks.logger.info"
     _WHOIS_TASKS_WARN_LOGGER = "openwisp_controller.config.whois.tasks.logger.warning"
     _WHOIS_TASKS_ERR_LOGGER = "openwisp_controller.config.whois.tasks.logger.error"

     # ...

     @mock.patch.object(app_settings, "WHOIS_CONFIGURED", True)
     @mock.patch(_WHOIS_TASKS_INFO_LOGGER)
-    @mock.patch(_WHOIS_GEOIP_CLIENT)
+    @mock.patch("openwisp_controller.config.whois.service.geoip2_webservice.Client")
     def test_whois_creation(self, mock_client, mock_info):

Wait, actually line 500 correctly uses _WHOIS_GEOIP_CLIENT but it's missing the self. prefix. Let me check - no, it's used as a string in the decorator, so it should reference the class constant:

-    @mock.patch(_WHOIS_GEOIP_CLIENT)
+    @mock.patch(TestWHOISTransaction._WHOIS_GEOIP_CLIENT)

Or define it at module level like the other mock paths in lines 498-499.

Also applies to: 497-500


585-595: Clarify comment about WHOIS deletion logic.

The comment at line 594 states "WHOIS related to the device's last_ip should be deleted" but the test expects count=1, meaning the WHOIS record should NOT be deleted. The test logic is correct (WHOIS should be preserved when other devices use the same IP), but the comment is misleading.

🔎 Proposed fix
         with self.subTest(
             "Test WHOIS not deleted when device is deleted and"
             " other active devices are linked to the last_ip"
         ):
             ip_address = device.last_ip
             device.delete(check_deactivated=False)
             self.assertEqual(mock_info.call_count, 0)
             mock_info.reset_mock()

-            # WHOIS related to the device's last_ip should be deleted
+            # WHOIS related to the device's last_ip should NOT be deleted
+            # because another active device still uses this IP
             self.assertEqual(WHOISInfo.objects.filter(ip_address=ip_address).count(), 1)
openwisp_controller/config/management/commands/clear_last_ip.py (1)

47-55: Consider adding error handling for individual save operations.

If a single device.save() fails, the entire command will abort, potentially leaving the operation incomplete. Consider wrapping the save operation in a try/except block to handle failures gracefully and continue processing remaining devices.

🔎 Proposed enhancement
         updated_devices = 0
+        failed_devices = 0
         for device in devices.iterator():
-            device.last_ip = None

315-369: LGTM! Comprehensive field validation tests.

The validation tests cover all critical field constraints including length limits, format validation, and range checks. The coordinate validation test cases are particularly thorough.

Note: Consider applying the simplified error handling pattern mentioned in the previous comment to lines 325-331, 338-346, and 362-368.


497-617: LGTM! Comprehensive WHOIS lifecycle tests.

The test_whois_creation method thoroughly covers WHOIS record creation, update, and deletion scenarios including:

  • Creation when device is created
  • Update when device IP changes
  • Proper cleanup based on whether other devices share the IP
  • Deactivated device handling

The helper function _verify_whois_details provides good verification encapsulation.


670-709: Well-structured error handling tests.

The test_whois_task_failure_notification method uses a clean helper function pattern to test multiple exception types with consistent assertions. This ensures proper logging and notification behavior across all geoip2 error scenarios.


711-782: LGTM! Comprehensive Selenium UI tests.

The test_whois_device_admin method thoroughly validates WHOIS information visibility in the Django admin under various configurations:

  • WHOIS configured vs. not configured
  • WHOIS enabled vs. disabled at org level
  • WHOIS info exists vs. does not exist

The _assert_no_js_errors helper properly filters browser console logs and handles browser-specific differences.

openwisp_controller/config/management/commands/clear_last_ip.py (5)

1-3: LGTM!

All imports are necessary and correctly used throughout the command.


6-10: LGTM!

The command class structure and help text are well-formed and descriptive.


12-20: LGTM!

The argument handling for interactive/non-interactive mode follows Django conventions correctly.


26-36: LGTM!

The interactive confirmation logic is clear and correctly handles user input. The error message is concise and appropriate for this context.


56-61: LGTM!

The output messages are clear and appropriately handle both success cases (with device count) and no-op cases.

🧹 Nitpick comments (4)
openwisp_controller/config/whois/tests/tests.py (4)

157-164: Remove redundant try/except around assertion.

The try/except block catching AssertionError and calling self.fail() is redundant. The assertEqual already raises AssertionError with the appropriate message when the assertion fails, and Django's test runner will capture and report it correctly.

🔎 Proposed fix
-        try:
-            self.assertEqual(
-                context_manager.exception.message_dict["whois_enabled"][0],
-                "WHOIS_GEOIP_ACCOUNT and WHOIS_GEOIP_KEY must be set "
-                + "before enabling WHOIS feature.",
-            )
-        except AssertionError:
-            self.fail("ValidationError message not equal to expected message.")
+        self.assertEqual(
+            context_manager.exception.message_dict["whois_enabled"][0],
+            "WHOIS_GEOIP_ACCOUNT and WHOIS_GEOIP_KEY must be set "
+            + "before enabling WHOIS feature.",
+        )

324-330: Remove redundant try/except blocks around assertions.

Similar to the previous comment, these try/except blocks are redundant. Django's test framework already captures and reports AssertionError appropriately.

🔎 Proposed fix for lines 324-330
-        try:
-            self.assertEqual(
-                context_manager.exception.message_dict["ip_address"][0],
-                "WHOIS information cannot be created for private IP addresses.",
-            )
-        except AssertionError:
-            self.fail("ValidationError message not equal to expected message.")
+        self.assertEqual(
+            context_manager.exception.message_dict["ip_address"][0],
+            "WHOIS information cannot be created for private IP addresses.",
+        )

Apply similar changes to lines 337-345 and 361-367.

Also applies to: 337-345, 361-367


174-174: Prefer direct attribute access over getattr with constant.

Using getattr with a constant attribute name is unnecessary and less clear than direct attribute access.

As per static analysis hints.

🔎 Proposed fix
-            self.assertEqual(getattr(org_settings_obj, "whois_enabled"), True)
+            self.assertEqual(org_settings_obj.whois_enabled, True)

Apply the same change to lines 180 and 191.

Also applies to: 180-180, 191-191


667-669: Clarify misleading comment.

The comment states "we need to allow the task to propagate exceptions" but the setting CELERY_TASK_EAGER_PROPAGATES=False actually prevents exception propagation. This is the correct behavior for testing the on_failure callback, but the comment is misleading.

🔎 Proposed fix
-    # we need to allow the task to propagate exceptions to ensure
+    # we need to prevent the task from propagating exceptions to ensure
     # `on_failure` method is called and notifications are executed
     @override_settings(CELERY_TASK_EAGER_PROPAGATES=False)

33-781: Comprehensive test coverage looks good.

The test suite provides thorough coverage of the WHOIS feature including:

  • Configuration and signal handling
  • Model validation
  • API endpoints and responses
  • Background task execution and error handling
  • Selenium-based UI verification

The test structure is well-organized with appropriate use of mocking, subtests, and transaction testing.

- Around line 427-434: The test updates device2.last_ip but never saves it, so
the signal handler won't run and mocked_task.assert_not_called() is a
meaningless check; fix by calling device2.save() after setting device2.last_ip
(mirroring the device1 case) so the save triggers the signal and the assertion
validates behavior of mocked_task (refer to device1.save(), device2.save(), and
mocked_task.assert_not_called()).
🧹 Nitpick comments (3)
openwisp_controller/config/whois/tests/tests.py (3)

70-80: Consider using self.assertTrue/self.assertFalse for consistency.

Using bare assert statements works but provides less informative failure messages compared to unittest assertion methods. Consider using self.assertTrue(not any(...)) or self.assertFalse(any(...)) for consistency with the rest of the test suite and better failure diagnostics.


170-193: Replace getattr with direct attribute access.

Using getattr with a constant attribute name is unnecessary and less readable than direct attribute access.

🔧 Suggested fix
         with self.subTest("Test setting WHOIS enabled to True"):
             org_settings_obj.whois_enabled = True
             org_settings_obj.save(update_fields=["whois_enabled"])
             org_settings_obj.refresh_from_db(fields=["whois_enabled"])
-            self.assertEqual(getattr(org_settings_obj, "whois_enabled"), True)
+            self.assertTrue(org_settings_obj.whois_enabled)

         with self.subTest("Test setting WHOIS enabled to False"):
             org_settings_obj.whois_enabled = False
             org_settings_obj.save(update_fields=["whois_enabled"])
             org_settings_obj.refresh_from_db(fields=["whois_enabled"])
-            self.assertEqual(getattr(org_settings_obj, "whois_enabled"), False)
+            self.assertFalse(org_settings_obj.whois_enabled)

         with self.subTest(
             "Test setting WHOIS enabled to None fallbacks to global setting"
         ):
             # reload app_settings to ensure latest settings are applied
             importlib.reload(app_settings)
             org_settings_obj.whois_enabled = None
             org_settings_obj.save(update_fields=["whois_enabled"])
             org_settings_obj.refresh_from_db(fields=["whois_enabled"])
             self.assertEqual(
-                getattr(org_settings_obj, "whois_enabled"),
+                org_settings_obj.whois_enabled,
                 app_settings.WHOIS_ENABLED,
             )

312-320: Consider simplifying assertion pattern.

The try/except AssertionError pattern with self.fail() is verbose. You can pass a message directly to the assertion method.

🔧 Suggested simplification
         with self.assertRaises(ValidationError) as context_manager:
             self._create_whois_info(ip_address="127.0.0.1")
-        try:
-            self.assertEqual(
-                context_manager.exception.message_dict["ip_address"][0],
-                "WHOIS information cannot be created for private IP addresses.",
-            )
-        except AssertionError:
-            self.fail("ValidationError message not equal to expected message.")
+        self.assertEqual(
+            context_manager.exception.message_dict["ip_address"][0],
+            "WHOIS information cannot be created for private IP addresses.",
+            "ValidationError message not equal to expected message.",
+        )

The same pattern is used at lines 325-335 and 348-357 and could be similarly simplified.

1-30: LGTM!

Imports are well-organized. The module-level notification_qs is acceptable since Django QuerySets are lazy and will execute fresh queries when accessed.


195-269: LGTM!

Comprehensive API test coverage for WHOIS information in device endpoints, properly testing both configured and unconfigured states.


271-301: LGTM!

Good test coverage for the management command, including cache invalidation verification through the DeviceChecksumView.


700-771: LGTM!

Comprehensive Selenium tests for WHOIS admin UI visibility across different configuration states. The browser log filtering appropriately handles known non-critical messages.

Learning: In openwisp_controller/geo/base/models.py, the BaseLocation.save() method protects the is_estimated field from manual changes when the estimated location feature is disabled by reverting it to its initial database value using the elif branch. This is intentional behavior to ensure the field can only be modified when the feature is properly configured.

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 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.

71-93: Well-structured settings with proper fail-fast validation.

The new WHOIS settings block addresses previous review feedback: WHOIS_REFRESH_THRESHOLD_DAYS is now validated as a positive integer (Lines 82-87), and the ImproperlyConfigured messages now include explicit setting names (Lines 76-80, 91-92). The validation ordering (credentials → threshold → feature dependency) is logical and clear.

openwisp_controller/config/whois/service.py (2)

244-268: Previous late-binding closure issue properly addressed.

Line 252 eagerly captures initial_ip = self.device._initial_last_ip before registering the on_commit callback. This correctly prevents the previously identified bug where _initial_last_ip could be reset by _check_last_ip() before the deferred callback executes.


324-354: Notification correctly moved outside transaction.atomic() block.

Both the create path (Line 334) and update path (Line 350) now send notifications after the atomic block commits, ensuring no notifications are triggered for rolled-back transactions. This addresses the previous review concern about inconsistent notification placement.

openwisp_controller/geo/admin.py (2)

118-128: Correctly addresses prior mutation concern — copies are made.

Both get_list_display and get_list_filter now operate on copies via list(), preventing class-level attribute mutation across requests.


137-143: extra_context merging correctly addressed.

Line 141 uses extra_context = extra_context or {} before adding keys, preserving any caller-provided context.

openwisp_controller/geo/estimated_location/tests/tests.py (5)

1-36: Well-organized test module with appropriate imports and model loading.

The test infrastructure is properly set up with TestCase for non-transactional tests and TransactionTestCase for on_commit callback testing. The _notification_qs helper provides a clean abstraction for notification assertions.


38-106: Configuration settings tests cover key validation scenarios.

The importlib.reload pattern for testing Django settings is appropriate. The test correctly validates that ImproperlyConfigured is raised for invalid configurations, org-level validation errors are surfaced, and admin field visibility toggles based on WHOIS_CONFIGURED.


556-585: Bare device.devicelocation access is intentional — confirmed in prior review.

Lines 575 and 585 use standalone expressions to trigger RelatedObjectDoesNotExist / verify existence. This was discussed in a prior review round and accepted with explanatory comments.


587-632: Excellent idempotency test for shared location stability.

This test verifies that identical WHOIS results don't recreate locations when devices reuse the same IP — covering an important edge case for the location-sharing logic. The assertion at Line 632 (notification_count unchanged) is a good check for spurious side effects.


796-849: API assertion pattern correctly uses results_by_id — prior concern addressed.

Lines 822 and 844 use dictionary lookups by ID rather than relying on response ordering, making these assertions order-independent and non-flaky.

Inline comments:
In `@openwisp_controller/config/whois/service.py`:
- Around line 196-213: In _need_whois_lookup: avoid the unnecessary DB query by
checking the cheap org setting first—first call
is_valid_public_ip_address(new_ip), then check self.is_whois_enabled
(cheap/cache) and return False if disabled, and only then call
self._get_whois_info_from_db(ip_address=new_ip).first() and use
self.is_older(whois_obj.modified) as before; update the control flow so
_get_whois_info_from_db is only invoked when IP is public and WHOIS is enabled.
- Around line 288-307: The _create_or_update_whois function currently always
appends "modified" to update_fields and updates/saves the instance even when no
other attributes changed; change it so "modified" is only appended and
timezone.now() assigned (and save called with update_fields) when at least one
other field was added to update_fields—i.e., after the loop check if
update_fields is non-empty, then add "modified", set whois_instance.modified,
and call whois_instance.save(update_fields=update_fields); ensure you do not
call save or return a non-empty update_fields when nothing actually changed.
- Around line 143-194: process_whois_details currently returns isp, asn, and
cidr possibly as None which will violate WHOISInfo CharField constraints; update
process_whois_details to return empty-string fallbacks for those keys (same
pattern used for "timezone") so "isp", "asn", and "cidr" are "" when missing; in
addition, update _create_or_update_whois so that before saving you call
instance.full_clean() to validate CharField constraints and change the naive
str() change-detection (used when comparing existing values) to compare the
actual stored value (e.g., getattr(instance, field) or normalize both sides to
empty-string) to avoid treating None vs "" as a change and prevent unnecessary
DB writes and IntegrityError on save.

In `@openwisp_controller/geo/admin.py`:
- Around line 186-200: The queryset method's WHOIS-configured branch currently
relies on an implicit fallthrough to handle value == "false", which can confuse
future readers; update the queryset method (function queryset) to make the
"false" case explicit by either adding an elif value == "false": return
queryset.filter(devicelocation__isnull=True) inside the WHOIS_CONFIGURED block
or by adding a brief inline comment above the final return explaining that the
fallthrough intentionally returns devicelocation__isnull=True when value ==
"false" so maintainers understand the behavior.
- Around line 108-116: The get_fields method currently mutates the parent return
value directly; make a defensive copy before mutating by replacing the call to
super().get_fields(request, obj) with list(super().get_fields(request, obj)) so
append/remove won't alter shared state (mirror the pattern used in
get_list_display and get_list_filter); keep the rest of the logic using org_id
and WHOISService.check_estimated_location_configured unchanged.

In `@openwisp_controller/geo/estimated_location/tests/tests.py`:
- Around line 1044-1054: Add an explicit assertion that the response returns all
devices (i.e., the filter was ignored) by checking the pagination/count rather
than only checking presence of each id; after each GET in the subTest (with
WHOIS_CONFIGURED patched False and for estimated_device, outdoor_device,
indoor_device) assert response.data['count'] == 3 or assert
len(response.data.get('results', [])) == 3 to ensure the total number of
returned items is exactly the three expected devices.

Made ordering consistent, clarified floorplan_set is prefetched.
Some tests were breaking, highlighting need
for more careful handling of corner cases in LocationAdmin.

Renamed check_estimated_location_configured to
check_estimated_location_enabled for clarity

Learning: In openwisp_controller/geo/base/models.py, the BaseLocation.save() method protects the is_estimated field from manual changes when the estimated location feature is disabled by reverting it to its initial database value using the elif branch. This is intentional behavior to ensure the field can only be modified when the feature is properly configured.

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.

openwisp_controller/geo/base/models.py (4)

18-28: LGTM on field definitions and type annotation.

The _changed_checked_fields and is_estimated field definitions are clean and appropriate.


33-43: LGTM on initial value tracking.

Proper use of get_deferred_fields() to handle deferred fields, and dynamic attribute setting via _set_initial_values_for_changed_checked_fields is well-structured.


45-64: LGTM on clean() validation.

The DEFERRED guard is correctly applied before comparing _initial_is_estimated, and the feature-enabled check via WHOISService.check_estimated_location_enabled is appropriate.


80-101: Clarify the estimated location marker format and behavior:

The location name format in the codebase does not use tilde markers (~...~). Names are stored as either "Estimated Location: {ip}" or "{location}: {ip}". When is_estimated is manually cleared in save(), the name field is intentionally left unchanged — only the is_estimated flag is reset. If marker stripping is intended, it should be explicitly implemented in the save method or clarified whether the current behavior is acceptable.

Likely an incorrect or invalid review comment.

openwisp_controller/config/settings.py (1)

71-93: LGTM on WHOIS settings and validations.

Settings are well-structured: fail-fast validation using ImproperlyConfigured with descriptive messages that include the setting names. The dependency chain (ESTIMATED_LOCATION_ENABLED → WHOIS_ENABLED → WHOIS_CONFIGURED) is correctly enforced.

openwisp_controller/config/whois/service.py (3)

247-271: Late-binding closure for new_ip in the elif branch.

On line 269, the lambda captures new_ip by closure. Since new_ip is a local variable assigned on line 254, it won't change between registration and commit, so this is safe. However, self is also captured — if the WHOISService instance or its device reference is mutated before commit, the behavior could differ from the intent. This is unlikely in practice but worth noting.

The force_lookup path correctly captures initial_ip eagerly (line 255, per past review). Both branches are consistent.


314-359: LGTM on estimated location create/update flow.

The notification is correctly placed outside the atomic block (line 339), the update path only saves when fields actually changed (line 350), and _set_estimated=True is properly passed to prevent save() from clearing is_estimated.


81-112: Cache invalidation for empty OrganizationConfigSettings() instances is properly handled.

While caching an empty OrganizationConfigSettings() instance on line 106 could theoretically cache stale defaults if org settings are created later, the signal handlers in openwisp_controller/config/whois/handlers.py properly invalidate the cache on both post_save and post_delete of OrganizationConfigSettings. The cache invalidation via WHOISInfo.invalidate_org_settings_cache() is correctly connected to the model and will clear the cache whenever org settings are created, updated, or deleted.

openwisp_controller/geo/api/views.py (2)

55-64: LGTM on dynamic filter injection for is_estimated.

Evaluating WHOIS_CONFIGURED at runtime via __init__ rather than at class definition time is the right call for testability. The BooleanFilter is appropriate for the boolean field.


328-333: Good: Prefetch eliminates N+1 queries for floorplans in LocationSerializer.to_representation.

The Prefetch with order_by("-created") aligns with how the serializer's to_representation (line 170 in serializers.py) iterates over instance.floorplan_set.all().

openwisp_controller/geo/estimated_location/mixins.py (1)

1-33: LGTM on estimated location serializer mixins.

Clean implementation that conditionally includes/excludes is_estimated based on org-level feature flags. The pop(..., None) pattern is safe, and organization_id is a direct FK attribute avoiding extra queries.

openwisp_controller/geo/api/serializers.py (4)

38-40: LGTM on mixin integration for GeoJSON serializer.

MRO is correct — the mixin's to_representation will call super() into GeoFeatureModelSerializer, and then conditionally inject/remove is_estimated in properties.


135-152: LGTM on LocationSerializer changes.

The EstimatedLocationMixin is correctly positioned first in MRO. Converting fields and read_only_fields from tuples to lists improves consistency with other serializers in this file.


166-179: LGTM — relies on prefetched floorplans from the view.

The comment correctly documents that floorplan_set ordering is handled by the Prefetch in LocationListCreateView. Note that LocationDetailView (line 344) doesn't use prefetch, so this will issue one extra query for individual location detail requests — which is acceptable for single-object views.


235-237: LGTM on NestedtLocationSerializer mixin integration.

Same pattern as GeoJsonLocationSerializer. The typo in the class name ("Nestedt" → "Nested") is pre-existing and outside the scope of this change.

openwisp_controller/geo/templates/admin/geo/location/change_form.html (1)

4-11: The estimated_enabled variable is properly provided in the admin context. It's injected via the LocationAdmin.change_view() method, where it's derived from WHOISService.check_estimated_location_enabled(org_id) and explicitly added to extra_context before rendering the change form template.

openwisp_controller/geo/admin.py (2)

163-199: DeviceLocationFilter changes look correct.

The dynamic title override in __init__ and the conditional lookups / queryset logic all work as expected. The list_display and list_filter mutations addressed in earlier review rounds are no longer present.


108-112: list_display.index("created") assumes the parent class includes this column.

The code relies on AbstractLocationAdmin.list_display from django-loci containing "created". While this pattern works in practice (and is used similarly in geo/api/filters.py and subnet_division/admin.py), it creates an implicit dependency that could silently fail if the parent class changes. A more defensive approach would check for the field's presence first or fall back to append():

♻️ More defensive alternative
     def get_list_display(self, request):
         list_display = list(super().get_list_display(request))  # makes a copy
         if config_app_settings.WHOIS_CONFIGURED:
-            list_display.insert(list_display.index("created"), "is_estimated")
+            if "created" in list_display:
+                list_display.insert(list_display.index("created"), "is_estimated")
+            else:
+                list_display.append("is_estimated")
         return list_display

importlib.reload(config_app_settings)) at the start of the test) and ensure any
importlib.reload(config_app_settings) that might raise (the one used inside the
ImproperlyConfigured subtest) is wrapped so the module is reloaded to a sane
state (use try/finally or perform the failing reload only inside the
assertRaises but still rely on the addCleanup to restore the module), keeping
references to config_app_settings and OrganizationConfigSettings to locate the
changes.

In `@openwisp_controller/geo/templates/admin/geo/location/change_form.html`:
- Line 2: The template unnecessarily loads the admin_urls tag library; remove
"admin_urls" from the "{% load i18n admin_urls %}" line in the template so it
only loads needed tags (e.g., "{% load i18n %}"), ensuring the "{% load i18n
admin_urls %}" statement is updated to drop admin_urls since no admin_urls
tags/filters are used in this file.

- Around line 291-312: In _create_or_update_whois, the update branch currently
sets attributes and calls whois_instance.save(update_fields=update_fields)
without validation; call whois_instance.full_clean() after applying setattr (and
before setting modified/save) to validate changes, then proceed to set
whois_instance.modified and save(update_fields=update_fields); ensure you handle
or propagate ValidationError from full_clean() consistently with the create
path.

The current design doesn't allow to get whois info efficiently
in the API list endpoint, hence we have to remove it.

Learning: In openwisp_controller/geo/base/models.py, the BaseLocation.save() method protects the is_estimated field from manual changes when the estimated location feature is disabled by reverting it to its initial database value using the elif branch. This is intentional behavior to ensure the field can only be modified when the feature is properly configured.

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.

openwisp_controller/geo/templates/admin/geo/location/change_form.html (1)

6-6: The code is correct. estimated_enabled is explicitly injected into the template context in the LocationAdmin.change_view() method (openwisp_controller/geo/admin.py lines 139-141), where it retrieves the value from WHOISService.check_estimated_location_enabled() and adds it to extra_context before passing it to the parent view.

openwisp_controller/geo/estimated_location/tests/tests.py (7)

1-36: LGTM!

Imports are well-organized and the swapper-based model loading follows the project's established pattern for Django swappable models.


43-106: Good use of addCleanup for config_app_settings reload.

The self.addCleanup(importlib.reload, config_app_settings) at line 45 properly ensures the module is restored to a sane state after the test, regardless of which nested override_settings context was active last. This correctly addresses the stale-state concern.

One remaining subtlety: after line 57's importlib.reload raises ImproperlyConfigured, config_app_settings may be left partially initialized for the remainder of the test method (subtests 2–4). This works today because subtest 2 (line 59) doesn't read config_app_settings, and subtest 4 (line 92) explicitly reloads it. Subtest 3 (lines 73–86), however, implicitly depends on WHOIS_CONFIGURED being True when the admin view checks it — if the partially-loaded module no longer has that attribute set, the admin assertion could become flaky. If CI stays green, this is fine, but a reload after the assertRaises block would make the flow more resilient.


109-174: LGTM!

TestEstimatedLocationField cleanly tests the validation, admin visibility toggle for is_estimated, and the WHOIS-disabled scenario. The subtest structure is clear and the assertions are well-targeted.


196-203: LGTM — clean setUp with proper notification type management.

Using contextlib.suppress(ImproperlyConfigured) to safely unregister a possibly-absent notification type before re-registering under the WHOIS mock is a pragmatic pattern for transactional tests.


339-584: Thorough coverage of location creation, update, and sharing scenarios.

The test_estimated_location_creation_and_update method provides excellent coverage of the estimated location lifecycle:

  • Creation on new device, update on IP change, behavior with empty address data
  • Non-estimated locations correctly left untouched
  • Location sharing when devices share the same IP
  • Shared location not updated when one device's IP changes (new location created instead)
  • Old estimated locations cleaned up when replaced

The _verify_location_details helper avoids repetition across subtests nicely. Mock parameter ordering matches the decorator stacking correctly throughout.


617-662: Good idempotency test for shared locations.

test_unchanged_whois_data_no_location_recreation validates that re-assigning the same IP doesn't spuriously recreate locations or generate duplicate notifications — an important correctness property for the WHOIS flow.


826-879: LGTM — order-independent API assertions.

The results_by_id dictionary pattern (lines 852, 874) makes these assertions robust against API ordering changes. The contradictory assertFalse after assertNotIn from earlier reviews has been removed.

1-16: LGTM!

Clean serializer setup. The explicit JSONField declaration for address ensures proper serialization of the JSON-stored field.

openwisp_controller/config/settings.py (1)

71-93: Well-structured settings validation chain.

The fail-fast validation with descriptive ImproperlyConfigured messages is good. The dependency ordering (WHOIS credentials → WHOIS enabled → estimated location enabled) prevents misconfiguration at startup.

openwisp_controller/config/whois/tests/tests.py (6)

1-47: LGTM — module-level setup.

Imports, MODIFIED_CACHE with KEY_PREFIX for test isolation, and the _notification_qs() helper are well-structured.


50-161: LGTM — TestWHOIS class setup and configuration tests.

Good use of addCleanup(importlib.reload, app_settings) to prevent cross-test leakage. Signal disconnect/reconnect testing is thorough.


383-422: LGTM — Model field validation tests.

Comprehensive coverage of boundary checks for ISP length, private IP rejection, timezone length, CIDR format, ASN format, and coordinate bounds.


601-718: LGTM — WHOIS creation and lifecycle tests.

Thorough coverage of creation on device create, IP change with/without shared IPs, deletion cascading, and deactivated device handling.


844-942: LGTM — Task failure notification and cache tests.

Good coverage of all geoip2 exception types with correct notification count expectations (only first error triggers notification, subsequent errors use cache). The MODIFIED_CACHE with KEY_PREFIX prevents cross-test cache pollution.


1062-1169: LGTM — Selenium tests with XSS protection.

The XSS test using UnexpectedAlertPresentException is a solid pattern for detecting injected script execution in the admin UI.

openwisp_controller/config/whois/service.py (5)

1-27: LGTM — Imports and class initialization.

Clean imports, well-structured service class with device binding.


28-67: LGTM — Static utility methods.

get_geoip_client, get_cache_key, is_valid_public_ip_address, and _get_whois_info_from_db are well-scoped and correctly implemented.


69-112: LGTM — is_older and get_org_config_settings.

Good caching pattern with fallback to empty OrganizationConfigSettings instance, and proper timezone-awareness enforcement.


143-194: LGTM — process_whois_details with proper exception handling and fallbacks.

Exception re-raising preserves the original cause chain (from e). Fallbacks for nullable fields (or "", coordinate handling) prevent IntegrityError on non-nullable CharFields.


315-361: LGTM — Estimated location creation/update.

Notifications are correctly sent outside the transaction.atomic() block. The update path only saves when fields actually changed, avoiding unnecessary writes.

openwisp_controller/config/whois/mixins.py (1)

5-20: LGTM — WHOISMixin implementation.

Clean mixin pattern with proper gating on WHOIS_CONFIGURED and per-org is_whois_enabled. Only applied to the detail serializer (not list), correctly avoiding N+1 concerns.

One minor naming note: serializer_class is conventionally a view-level DRF attribute; renaming to whois_serializer_class would reduce potential confusion, but this is purely cosmetic since no conflict exists in the current usage.

openwisp_controller/config/api/serializers.py (1)

12-12: LGTM — WHOISMixin integration in DeviceDetailSerializer.

Correctly applied only to DeviceDetailSerializer (not DeviceListSerializer), consistent with the N+1 avoidance strategy documented in the PR objectives.

Also applies to: 278-278

Add is_estimated to read_only_fields for consistency

GeoJsonLocationSerializer uses fields = "__all__", which includes is_estimated without marking it read-only. This inconsistently differs from LocationSerializer and NestedtLocationSerializer, which explicitly exclude is_estimated from their Meta.fields lists.

While the current view (GeoJsonLocationList) is read-only (supports only GET), and the model itself provides protection through save() and clean() methods, adding explicit read_only_fields ensures consistency across serializers and guards against future changes.

Proposed fix
 class GeoJsonLocationSerializer(
     EstimatedLocationGeoJsonMixin, gis_serializers.GeoFeatureModelSerializer
 ):
     device_count = IntegerField()
 
     class Meta:
         model = Location
         geo_field = "geometry"
         fields = "__all__"
+        read_only_fields = ("is_estimated",)

Learning: In openwisp_controller/geo/base/models.py, the BaseLocation.save() method protects the is_estimated field from manual changes when the estimated location feature is disabled by reverting it to its initial database value using the elif branch. This is intentional behavior to ensure the field can only be modified when the feature is properly configured.

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 reviews for the openwisp/openwisp-controller repository, do not propose changes based on Ruff warnings. The project does not use Ruff as its linter; ignore Ruff-related suggestions and follow the repository’s established linting and configuration rules. This guidance applies to all Python files under the openwisp_controller directory.

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.

6-27: LGTM — clean, correct delegation.

  • Help text accurately reflects the scoped behaviour (active devices without WHOIS records), resolving the previously flagged documentation discrepancy.
  • action="store_false" on --noinput implicitly sets default=True, so options["interactive"] is correctly True by default and False only when the flag is supplied.
  • stdout, stderr, and interactive are all forwarded to clear_last_ip_command without modification.

797-812: No issue found—documentation defaults are accurate.

The Python source confirms that both OPENWISP_CONTROLLER_WHOIS_GEOIP_ACCOUNT and OPENWISP_CONTROLLER_WHOIS_GEOIP_KEY default to "" (empty string) in openwisp_controller/config/settings.py, matching the documented defaults. Validation at lines 74–80 uses bool(WHOIS_GEOIP_ACCOUNT and WHOIS_GEOIP_KEY), so empty strings are intentional and correctly represented in the docs.

- Around line 831-844: Update the OPENWISP_CONTROLLER_ESTIMATED_LOCATION_ENABLED
docs to explicitly state the dependency on WHOIS_ENABLED: add a warning/note
block next to the `OPENWISP_CONTROLLER_ESTIMATED_LOCATION_ENABLED` (or
“ESTIMATED_LOCATION_ENABLED”) setting that says `WHOIS_ENABLED` must be set to
True and enabling estimated locations while `WHOIS_ENABLED=False` will raise
ImproperlyConfigured at import time; format this like the existing
`WHOIS_ENABLED` companion-setting notes so readers see the prerequisite before
enabling the feature.

In `@openwisp_controller/config/management/commands/clear_last_ip.py`:
- Line 20: The call to super().add_arguments(parser) in the Command class is a
no-op because BaseCommand.add_arguments is empty; remove the line invoking
super().add_arguments(parser) from the add_arguments method (i.e., drop the
super call in the Command class in clear_last_ip.py) so the method only defines
the needed parser arguments without the redundant superclass call.

In `@openwisp_controller/config/whois/tests/tests.py`:
- Around line 464-468: The mock for django.core.cache.cache.get in the test
subTest "WHOIS lookup task called when last_ip is public" should use
return_value=None instead of side_effect=[None] to avoid StopIteration if
cache.get is called multiple times; update the mock.patch call targeting
"django.core.cache.cache.get" to pass return_value=None (leave the cache.set
mock and device creation via self._create_device(last_ip="172.217.22.14")
unchanged).

In `@openwisp_controller/geo/api/serializers.py`:
- Around line 169-170: The serializer's to_representation assumes
instance.floorplan_set is prefetched, but LocationDetailUpdateDeleteView uses
Location.objects.all() and will cause N+1 queries; fix by either adding a
Prefetch to that view's queryset (use Prefetch("floorplan_set",
queryset=FloorPlan.objects.order_by("-created")) on
LocationDetailUpdateDeleteView.queryset) so instance.floorplan_set is already
ordered/prefetched, or update the serializer's to_representation to defensively
handle non-prefetched relations (e.g., fetch ordered floorplans via
instance.floorplan_set.order_by("-created") when not prefetched) and update the
comment accordingly.

In `@openwisp_controller/geo/estimated_location/tasks.py`:
- Around line 91-160: manage_estimated_locations can raise Device.DoesNotExist
when Device.objects.get(pk=device_pk) fails; wrap the call that obtains device
(the line using Device.objects.select_related(...).get(pk=device_pk)) in a
try/except catching Device.DoesNotExist and return early (optionally log/debug)
to mirror the pattern used in the whois task; ensure subsequent logic still uses
the loaded Device and DeviceLocation variables (Device, DeviceLocation, device)
as before.

In `@requirements.txt`:
- Line 20: Replace the geoip2 version specifier in requirements.txt from the
current "geoip2>=5.1.0,<6.0.0" form to the compatible-release operator
"geoip2~=5.1" to match the file's prevailing style; update the lone line
containing the geoip2 package/version so the constraint is functionally
identical but stylistically consistent with other entries like
"django-sortedm2m~=4.0.0".

Outside diff comments:
In `@openwisp_controller/geo/api/serializers.py`:
- Around line 38-46: The GeoJsonLocationSerializer Meta currently uses
fields="__all__" which unintentionally exposes the model's is_estimated field
for writes; update the GeoJsonLocationSerializer.Meta to add read_only_fields =
("is_estimated",) so is_estimated remains read-only (consistent with
LocationSerializer/NestedLocationSerializer) while keeping fields="__all__".
Ensure you modify the Meta class inside GeoJsonLocationSerializer.

For best results, initiate chat on the files or code changes.

@nemesifier: Yes, I'm happy! 😊

After all those review triggers, the automated review system has completed its analysis. From what I can see:

The PR looks comprehensive and well-executed:

  • Strong test coverage (98.673%, +0.07%)
  • Extensive documentation for both WHOIS and Estimated Location features
  • Comprehensive test suites for the new functionality
  • Proper configuration validation and error handling
  • Good integration with existing codebase patterns

No blocking issues identified in the automated review

The WHOIS and Estimated Location features appear to be production-ready. The implementation includes proper settings validation, signal handlers, Celery tasks, admin UI integration, API serializers, and thorough test coverage.

If you'd like me to take a deeper look at any specific aspect of the implementation (security, performance, architecture, etc.), just let me know which files or areas you'd like me to focus on!
