Phase 2 Plan 04: Export Services Summary

CsvExportService with Merge-PermissionRows GroupBy logic and HtmlExportService with inline CSS/JS stats report — both implementing PERM-05 and PERM-06

Performance

• Duration: 1 min
• Started: 2026-04-02T11:58:05Z
• Completed: 2026-04-02T12:00:00Z
• Tasks: 2
• Files modified: 2

Accomplishments

• CsvExportService ports PowerShell Merge-PermissionRows: groups entries by (Users, PermissionLevels, GrantedThrough), pipe-joins duplicate URLs and Titles, writes RFC 4180-escaped CSV with UTF-8 BOM
• HtmlExportService ports Export-PermissionsToHTML: self-contained HTML with stats cards, color-coded object-type badges, unique/inherited badges, user pills with external-user class for #EXT# logins, and inline JS filter
• All 6 export tests pass (3 CSV + 3 HTML); full suite: 59 pass, 4 skip, 0 fail

Task Commits

Each task was committed atomically:

1. Task 1: Implement CsvExportService - 44913f8 (feat)
2. Task 2: Implement HtmlExportService - e3ab319 (feat)

Plan metadata: (docs: complete plan — see final commit)

Note: TDD tasks — tests were stubs from Plan 01 (RED). Implementation done in this plan (GREEN).

Files Created/Modified

• SharepointToolbox/Services/Export/CsvExportService.cs - Merges PermissionEntry rows and writes RFC 4180 CSV with UTF-8 BOM
• SharepointToolbox/Services/Export/HtmlExportService.cs - Generates self-contained interactive HTML report with inline CSS/JS

Decisions Made

• CsvExportService uses UTF-8 with BOM (encoderShouldEmitUTF8Identifier: true) so Excel opens the file correctly without encoding prompts
• HtmlExportService uses UTF-8 without BOM (standard for HTML, browsers do not expect BOM)
• Minimal HtmlEncode helper implemented inline (replaces &, <, >, ", ') rather than pulling in System.Web — avoids adding a dependency and keeps the class self-contained
• User pills zip UserLogins and Users by index — this matches the semicolon-delimited parallel arrays established in PermissionEntry design

Deviations from Plan

None - plan executed exactly as written.

Issues Encountered

None - both services compiled and all tests passed on first attempt.

User Setup Required

None - no external service configuration required.

Next Phase Readiness

• CsvExportService and HtmlExportService are fully implemented and tested (PERM-05, PERM-06 complete)
• Both services are ready to be wired into the PermissionsViewModel export commands (upcoming plan in wave 3)
• No blockers for continuing Phase 2
