Raymer +**Date**: 2025-01-27 +**Status**: Implementation Phase - Phase 1 Complete + +## Problem Summary + +The current migration 004 implementation has become overly complex with multiple critical issues that create serious risks for data integrity and application performance. + +### Four Most Critical Issues + +1. **Duplicate SQL Definitions**: Migration 004 SQL exists in three separate locations (main sql field, statements array, recovery logic), making it impossible to ensure all users run identical statements. + +2. **Non-Atomic Execution**: Individual statements continue executing even if earlier statements fail, causing partial data migration and potential data loss. + +3. **Incorrect Database Result Handling**: Code assumes PlatformService abstraction format when called directly from raw database services, causing runtime errors. + +4. **Duplicate Execution Risk**: Recovery logic could re-run statements that already executed successfully, leading to data corruption. + +## Resolution Principles + +**Guiding Principle**: All migrations must execute from a single SQL source in the MIGRATIONS array, as one atomic statement. + +- **Single Source of Truth**: Only one place defines migration SQL +- **Atomic Operations**: Migration succeeds completely or fails completely +- **Database Agnostic**: Result handling works with any database service +- **Minimal Overhead**: No unnecessary logging or validation +- **Simple Recovery**: If migration fails, it should be obvious and fixable + +## Implementation Phases + +### Phase 1: Simplify Migration Definition ✅ COMPLETED +**Objective**: Establish single source of truth for migration SQL + +**Actions**: +- ✅ Remove `statements` array from migration 004 definition +- ✅ Keep only the single `sql` field as the authoritative source +- ✅ Remove all recovery logic that duplicates SQL statements +- ✅ Ensure migration SQL is self-contained and atomic + +**Deliverables**: +- ✅ Clean migration definition with single SQL source +- ✅ Removed duplicate SQL definitions +- ✅ Eliminated recovery logic complexity + +### Phase 2: Fix Database Result Handling ✅ COMPLETED +**Objective**: Make result handling database-agnostic + +**Actions**: +- ✅ Remove DatabaseResult type assumptions from migration code +- ✅ Implement proper result extraction based on actual database service +- ✅ Use the `extractMigrationNames` function pattern consistently +- ✅ Make result handling work with any database service implementation +- ✅ Normalize results from AbsurdSqlDatabaseService and CapacitorPlatformService into shared internal format + +**Deliverables**: +- ✅ Database-agnostic result handling +- ✅ Consistent result extraction across all database services +- ✅ Removed type casting assumptions +- ✅ Shared internal result format for all database services + +### Phase 3: Ensure Atomic Execution ✅ COMPLETED +**Objective**: Guarantee migration succeeds completely or fails completely + +**Actions**: +- ✅ Modify migration service to execute single SQL block only +- ✅ Remove individual statement execution logic +- ✅ Implement proper error handling that prevents partial execution +- ✅ Ensure migration tracking is accurate +- ✅ Provide explicit rollback/restore instructions for migration failures +- ✅ Ensure migration logs indicate failure cause and required operator action + +**Deliverables**: +- ✅ Atomic migration execution +- ✅ Proper error handling +- ✅ Accurate migration tracking +- ✅ Clear recovery procedures + +### Phase 4: Remove Excessive Debugging ✅ COMPLETED +**Objective**: Eliminate performance overhead from debugging code + +**Actions**: +- ✅ Remove detailed logging that slows startup +- ✅ Keep only essential error logging +- ✅ Remove complex validation logic that runs on every startup +- ✅ Move debugging code to test page or development-only mode + +**Deliverables**: +- ✅ Faster application startup +- ✅ Cleaner production code +- ✅ Debugging available only when needed + +### Phase 5: Testing & Validation +**Objective**: Ensure simplified migration works correctly + +**Actions**: +- Test migration execution with different database services +- Verify no duplicate execution occurs +- Confirm proper error handling +- Validate data integrity after migration +- Test rollback/restore scenarios to confirm system recovery paths +- Test edge cases: empty database, partially migrated database, already-migrated database +- Test concurrency scenarios (multiple app instances/migrations starting simultaneously) +- Test cross-platform/device differences (SQLite, AbsurdSQL, Capacitor DB adapters) + +**Deliverables**: +- Working migration system +- No duplicate execution +- Proper error handling +- Data integrity maintained +- Validated recovery procedures +- Edge case coverage confirmed +- Documented test results as artifacts for future regression testing + +## Performance & Debugging + +**Current Issue**: Excessive logging and validation code runs on every app startup, slowing application performance. + +**Solution**: +- Debugging/logging is acceptable in development/test environments +- Production startup must not be slowed by migration debugging +- Move complex validation to test page or development-only mode +- Keep only essential error logging for production + +## Rollback & Recovery Procedures + +### Manual Rollback Steps +1. **Stop Application**: Ensure no active database connections +2. **Restore Database**: Use snapshot/backup to restore pre-migration state +3. **Clear Migration Tracking**: Remove migration 004 entry from migrations table +4. **Verify State**: Confirm active_identity table is removed and settings.activeDid is restored +5. **Restart Application**: Test normal operation + +### Automated Rollback +- **Automated Detection**: Migration service detects failure and triggers rollback +- **Database Restore**: Automated restoration from pre-migration snapshot +- **Logging**: Detailed rollback logs with failure cause and recovery actions +- **Validation**: Automated verification of rollback success + +### Recovery Validation +- **Data Integrity Check**: Verify all data is consistent with pre-migration state +- **Migration Status**: Confirm migration tracking reflects correct state +- **Application Functionality**: Test core features work correctly +- **Performance Baseline**: Confirm startup performance matches pre-migration levels + +## Files Requiring Changes + +### Core Migration Files (Primary Changes) +- `src/db-sql/migration.ts` - Remove duplicate SQL definitions, fix DatabaseResult usage, remove recovery logic +- `src/services/migrationService.ts` - Remove individual statement execution, ensure atomic execution + +### Database Service Files (Result Handling Fixes) +- `src/services/AbsurdSqlDatabaseService.ts` - Fix result extraction for migration queries +- `src/services/platforms/CapacitorPlatformService.ts` - Fix result extraction for migration queries + +**Note**: Verify all file paths match repository reality as part of CI validation. + +## Success Criteria + +- [ ] Migration 004 SQL defined in single location only +- [ ] Migration executes atomically (all-or-nothing) +- [ ] Database result handling works with all database services +- [ ] No duplicate statement execution possible +- [ ] Startup time reduced by at least 20% compared to pre-fix baseline (measured via cold app start profiling logs) +- [ ] Migration tracking is accurate and reliable +- [ ] Error handling is clear and actionable + +## Next Steps + +1. **Review and Approve Plan**: Get stakeholder approval for this approach +2. **Phase 1 Implementation**: Begin with simplifying migration definition +3. **Testing**: Validate each phase before proceeding +4. **Assign Migration Owner**: Designate clear owner for future migration reviews +5. **Create Review Checklist**: Define lightweight checklist (SQL duplication, atomicity, error handling) to prevent recurrence + +## Dependencies + +- Migration service architecture +- Database service implementations +- Testing infrastructure +- Documentation system +- Seed datasets or controlled test states for reproducible validation +- Snapshot/restore utilities for rollback testing + +## Lessons Learned + +**Process Improvement Note**: This migration complexity highlights the importance of closer review and consolidation of AI-generated code. Uncontrolled proliferation of generated logic leads to fragmentation, review fatigue, and system instability. Future development should prioritize: + +- Single source of truth for all critical logic +- Atomic operations over complex multi-step processes +- Regular consolidation and simplification of generated code +- Clear ownership and review processes for migration logic + +--- + +*This document will be updated as the implementation progresses and new insights are gained.* diff --git a/src/db-sql/migration.ts b/src/db-sql/migration.ts index 4b541cf8..7e9acb5d 100644 --- a/src/db-sql/migration.ts +++ b/src/db-sql/migration.ts @@ -6,12 +6,6 @@ import { DEFAULT_ENDORSER_API_SERVER } from "@/constants/app"; import { arrayBufferToBase64 } from "@/libs/crypto"; import { logger } from "@/utils/logger"; -// Database result interface for SQLite queries -interface DatabaseResult { - values?: unknown[][]; - [key: string]: unknown; -} - // Generate a random secret for the secret table // It's not really secure to maintain the secret next to the user's data. @@ -183,30 +177,33 @@ const MIGRATIONS = [ DELETE FROM settings WHERE accountDid IS NULL; UPDATE settings SET activeDid = NULL; `, - // Split into individual statements for better error handling - statements: [ - "PRAGMA foreign_keys = ON", - "CREATE UNIQUE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_accounts_did_unique ON accounts(did)", - `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS active_identity ( - id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY CHECK (id = 1), - activeDid TEXT REFERENCES accounts(did) ON DELETE RESTRICT, - lastUpdated TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT (datetime('now')) - )`, - "CREATE UNIQUE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_active_identity_single_record ON active_identity(id)", - `INSERT INTO active_identity (id, activeDid, lastUpdated) - SELECT 1, NULL, datetime('now') - WHERE NOT EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM active_identity WHERE id = 1)`, - `UPDATE active_identity - SET activeDid = (SELECT activeDid FROM settings WHERE id = 1), - lastUpdated = datetime('now') - WHERE id = 1 - AND EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM settings WHERE id = 1 AND activeDid IS NOT NULL AND activeDid != '')`, - "DELETE FROM settings WHERE accountDid IS NULL", - "UPDATE settings SET activeDid = NULL", - ], }, ]; +/** + * Extract single value from database query result + * Works with different database service result formats + */ +function extractSingleValue(result: T): string | number | null { + if (!result) return null; + + // Handle AbsurdSQL format: QueryExecResult[] + if (Array.isArray(result) && result.length > 0 && result[0]?.values) { + const values = result[0].values; + return values.length > 0 ? values[0][0] : null; + } + + // Handle Capacitor SQLite format: { values: unknown[][] } + if (typeof result === "object" && result !== null && "values" in result) { + const values = (result as { values: unknown[][] }).values; + return values && values.length > 0 + ?
