arnef 2fd39c8180 refactor: unify data directory structure
Unify user data directory from fragmented layout to consistent nested format:

- Move WebDAV from: data/files/<username> → data/<username>/files/
- Move CalDAV from: data/<username>/cal-<name> → data/<username>/calendars/<name>
- Move CardDAV from: data/<username>/card-<name> → data/<username>/addressbooks/<name>

Changes:
- internal/store/store.go: Update collectionPath() to map collection names
- internal/store/migrate.go: Add idempotent Migrate() method
- internal/store/migrate_test.go: Comprehensive migration tests
- internal/webdav/handler.go: Use new unified path structure
- cmd/server/main.go: Auto-run migration on startup
- tools/nidusctl/main.go: Add migrate subcommand
- Update tests to verify new structure

URL endpoints unchanged - only on-disk structure modified. All tests pass.

# Data Directory Migration Guide
This migration unifies the user data directory structure from a fragmented layout to a consistent nested format.
## Before (Old Structure)
```
data/
├── files/
│ └── alice/ # WebDAV files
│ └── documents/
│ └── file.txt
├── alice/
│ ├── cal-personal/ # CalDAV calendar
│ │ └── event1.ics
│ └── card-contacts/ # CardDAV address book
│ └── contact1.vcf
└── bob/
├── cal-work/
│ └── meeting.ics
└── card-addressbook/
└── address.vcf
```
## After (New Unified Structure)
```
data/
├── alice/
│ ├── files/ # WebDAV files
│ │ └── documents/
│ │ └── file.txt
│ ├── calendars/ # CalDAV calendars
│ │ └── personal/
│ │ └── event1.ics
│ └── addressbooks/ # CardDAV address books
│ └── contacts/
│ └── contact1.vcf
└── bob/
├── files/
├── calendars/
│ └── work/
└── addressbooks/
└── addressbook/
```
## Migration Details
### What Changed
1. **WebDAV files**: `data/files/<username>/``data/<username>/files/`
2. **CalDAV calendars**: `data/<username>/cal-<name>/``data/<username>/calendars/<name>/`
3. **CardDAV address books**: `data/<username>/card-<name>/``data/<username>/addressbooks/<name>/`
### Migration Tool
A migration tool is provided that automatically restructures the data directory. It is **idempotent** and can be run multiple times safely.
#### Using nidusctl (Recommended)
```bash
go run ./tools/nidusctl -config config.yaml migrate
```
#### Using standalone migrate tool
```bash
go run ./tools/migrate -config config.yaml
```
#### Verbose output
```bash
go run ./tools/nidusctl -config config.yaml migrate --verbose
```
### What the Migration Does
1. For each user directory in the data directory:
- Creates `<username>/` if it doesn't exist
- Moves `files/<username>/``<username>/files/` (if exists)
- Moves `cal-<name>/``<username>/calendars/<name>/`
- Moves `card-<name>/``<username>/addressbooks/<name>/`
2. The old `files/` directory is left in place (can be manually removed after verification)
### Backward Compatibility
The migration is **fully backward compatible**:
- The migration tool handles both old and new structures
- If files are already in the new location, they are not moved
- Running migration multiple times is safe (idempotent)
### Server Integration
The server automatically runs migration on startup (if enabled in config). No manual migration is required for new installations.
### Testing
After migration, verify:
```bash
# Check data structure
ls -la data/
# Run tests
go test ./...
# Start server to verify WebDAV, CalDAV, CardDAV work correctly
go run ./cmd/server -config config.yaml
```
### Manual Verification
After migration, you should see:
```bash
$ ls -la data/alice/
calendars/
addressbooks/
files/
```
Each calendar should be in `data/<user>/calendars/<name>/` format, not `cal-<name>/`.
### Rollback (if needed)
If you need to rollback:
1. Stop the server
2. Restore the data directory from backup
3. Re-run the migration after fixing any issues
### Common Issues
**Q: Migration reports "directory already exists" warnings**
A: These are normal if files were already migrated. The migration is idempotent.
**Q: Old `files/` directory still exists**
A: This is expected. You can manually remove it after verifying migration success.
**Q: Some calendars/address books not visible after migration**
A: Check the migration logs and verify directory structure. Run `find data/ -type d -name "cal-*"` to find unmigrated calendars.
### Support
If you encounter issues:
1. Check logs for detailed error messages
2. Run migration with `--verbose` flag
3. Ensure no server processes are running during migration
4. Make backup before migrating in production
