Addresses security concern where FastAPI's default behavior exposes interactive
API documentation (/docs, /redoc) without authentication, allowing attackers to
enumerate endpoints and understand API schemas.
Changes:
- Add BANGUI_ENABLE_DOCS boolean setting (default: false) to Settings
- Modify create_app() to conditionally set docs_url, redoc_url, openapi_url
- Add docs endpoints to SetupRedirectMiddleware allowlist (/api/docs, /api/redoc, /api/openapi.json)
- Set BANGUI_ENABLE_DOCS=true in Docker/compose.debug.yml for development
- Production compose files leave it unset (defaults to false, docs disabled)
- Add comprehensive tests for docs configuration
- Document the new setting in Backend-Development.md
Security Impact:
- API documentation is now disabled by default in production
- Development environments can enable docs by setting BANGUI_ENABLE_DOCS=true
- Docs endpoints are inaccessible in production without manual configuration
