Part of stack #316, on top of #309. The diff here shows only the migration; #309 carries the one-line authorization fix. Merge #309 first.

Why

The class year pages existed twice. Brandon built the Razor view in May 2024 (44de98f), then ported it to a Vue SPA page in Sept 2024 (15d0605, "Creating student app in VueApp"). The Razor view and its MVC action were never removed, and the SPA rewrite only runs when no MVC endpoint matched, so the Vue copy never rendered.

The two then drifted, and both times the fix landed on the copy nobody sees:

Fix Commit Landed on Live Razor page
Dialog accessible name + close button 7eed6e05 (2026-04-16) Vue only missing for 4 months
O(n²) .find() in a loop → Map e85c2759 (2026-05-18) Vue only still O(n²) until this PR

The permission gating in #309 would have been the third instance.

Change

  • Delete web/Areas/Students/Views/ (Index, StudentClassYear, StudentClassYearImport) and StudentsController, so the SPA rewrite serves these routes. The Students area is now Vue-only. Net -334 lines.
  • Gate Save, Delete and the import link on SVMSecure.SIS.AllStudents in the Vue page, matching the server gate fix(students): require SIS.AllStudents to delete a student class year #309 adds to the DELETE endpoint. Users with only SVMSecure.Students keep the roster and the record details, read-only.
  • meta.permissions on the import route: that page is an SIS mutation end to end.
  • Add the /:catchAll(.*)*Error404.vue route the CMS, CTS, CAHFS and Computing SPAs already use. This also retires /Students/StudentClassYearreport, whose action returned View("~/Areas/Students/Views/StudentClassYearReport.cshtml") for a view that has never existed in the repo, so the URL returned a 500.

Verified in the browser

Ran locally against the dev environment, logged in through CAS.

Routing, all now served by the SPA:

Path Before After
/Students Razor Vue, "Students Home"
/Students/StudentClassYear Razor Vue, "Student Class Years", 154 rows load
/Students/StudentClassYearImport Vue (already) Vue, unchanged
/Students/StudentClassYearreport 500 Vue, "Error 404 - not found"

Permission gating on the migrated page, with the SIS permissions stubbed out of the real API response to simulate a Students-only user:

SIS user Students-only user
Roster rows 154 154
Import link present, navigates to the import page absent
Save / Delete present absent
Dialog opens, named, closable yes yes

Zero console errors in every case. The import link resolves to /Students/StudentClassYearImport?classYear=2027 and lands on the import page.

VueApp/src/Students/__tests__/student-class-year-permissions.test.ts, 4 tests. Full backend suite green.

Notes

  • The Razor page reached the import page via ?import=1; the SPA uses /Students/StudentClassYearImport. The old query form is gone, so a stale bookmark now lands on the class year page rather than the import page. No in-app link used it.
  • StudentsHome.vue and the deleted Index.cshtml were both stubs, so /Students is unchanged in substance.
  • This removes 3 of the 54 Razor views in the app. The remaining 51 (30 in RAPS) are why the CSP still needs unsafe-eval; see fix(csp): drop unsafe-eval from the built Vue SPA responses #311.

Pull request overview

This PR completes the Students “class years” Razor → Vue SPA migration by removing the legacy MVC endpoints/views so the existing Vue pages actually render, and by aligning client-side permission gating with the server’s SVMSecure.SIS.AllStudents requirements for mutations.

Changes:

  • Deleted the legacy Students MVC controller and Razor views for class year pages so the Students SPA handles /Students, /Students/StudentClassYear, and related routes.
  • Added permission gating for class-year mutation UI (Save/Delete/Import) and enforced meta.permissions on the import route.
  • Added a Students SPA catch-all route to render the shared Error404.vue (retiring the broken /Students/StudentClassYearreport MVC path).

  • q-form still has a live submit handler even when canManageClassYears is false. Because the dialog contains focusable fields, a read-only user can still trigger a submit via Enter key (or other form submission), which will call the PUT and yield a 403 — the opposite of the intended UX of hiding mutation paths.

Make the submit handler conditional so non-managers cannot submit the form at all.

  • This test mounts the component with attachTo: document.body but never unmounts the wrapper or clears the DOM. That can leak nodes into the shared Happy DOM document and make the suite order-dependent/flaky over time.

Since Teleport is already stubbed (teleport: true), attaching to document.body isn’t needed here.

    return mount(StudentClassYear, {
        attachTo: document.body,
        global: {

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The student class-year page now restricts mutation controls and student import to users with SVMSecure.SIS.AllStudents. The import route enforces the same permission. A catch-all route handles retired or unmatched URLs. Legacy server-rendered student pages and controller actions were removed.

Changes

Student class-year permissions

Layer / File(s) Summary
Mutation controls and permission tests
VueApp/src/Students/pages/StudentClassYear.vue, VueApp/src/Students/__tests__/student-class-year-permissions.test.ts
The page checks SVMSecure.SIS.AllStudents before enabling class-year edits, save/delete actions, and student import. Tests cover permitted and restricted users.
Route access and fallback handling
VueApp/src/Students/router/routes.ts, web/Areas/Students/Controllers/StudentsController.cs, web/Areas/Students/Views/*
The import route requires the SIS permission. Unmatched paths render Error404.vue. The legacy Students controller and class-year views were removed.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to f1f96

This PR makes the Students routes SPA-only, adds permission-based controls, and provides SPA 404 handling. It is mergeable with owner awareness of a minor UI convention issue and a test helper that may not work correctly when the application is deployed under a path prefix.

Comment thread VueApp/src/Students/pages/StudentClassYear.vue
The class year pages existed twice: a Razor view and a Vue SPA page ported
from it in Sept 2024. The MVC route won, so the Vue copy never rendered and
the two drifted. Both the dialog accessible name (7eed6e0) and the O(n^2)
to Map fix (e85c275) landed only on the copy nobody saw.

- Delete the Students Razor views and controller so the SPA rewrite serves
  these routes, leaving one implementation to maintain
- Gate Save, Delete and the import link on SVMSecure.SIS.AllStudents, which
  the DELETE endpoint now requires, so users are not offered controls that
  come back 403; the roster and record stay readable
- Add the catch-all 404 route the other SPAs already use, retiring
  StudentClassYearreport, whose view never existed and returned a 500

  • Save/Delete are hidden for users without SVMSecure.SIS.AllStudents, but the dialog still has an active <q-form @submit="submitStudentClassYear">. Pressing Enter inside the dialog can still fire the submit handler and attempt the PUT, which will 403 for Students-only users (the UI goal here is to avoid offering actions that will be rejected on click/keypress). Guard the submit event so it becomes a no-op when canManageClassYears is false.
