# Background Tasks Architecture

## Overview

This document defines the harmonized architecture for all background tasks in the application. Background tasks are long-running operations that execute asynchronously, allowing users to continue browsing while the task completes.

## Current State Analysis

| Task Type | Database Model | Status Values | Tracked in BG Tasks Page |
|-----------|---------------|---------------|--------------------------|
| Product Import | `MarketplaceImportJob` | pending, processing, completed, failed, completed_with_errors | Yes |
| Order Import | `LetzshopHistoricalImportJob` | pending, fetching, processing, completed, failed | No |
| Test Runs | `TestRun` | running, passed, failed, error | Yes |
| Product Export | `LetzshopSyncLog` | success, partial (post-facto logging only) | No |
| Code Quality Scan | `ArchitectureScan` | pending, running, completed, failed, completed_with_warnings | **Yes** ✓ |

### Identified Issues

1. **Inconsistent status values** - "processing" vs "running" vs "fetching"
2. **Inconsistent field naming** - `started_at`/`completed_at` vs `timestamp`
3. **Incomplete tracking** - Not all tasks appear on background tasks page
4. ~~**Missing status on some models** - Code quality scans have no status field~~ ✓ Fixed
5. **Exports not async** - Product exports run synchronously

---

## Harmonized Architecture

### Standard Status Values

All background tasks MUST use these standard status values:

| Status | Description | When Set |
|--------|-------------|----------|
| `pending` | Task created but not yet started | On job creation |
| `running` | Task is actively executing | When processing begins |
| `completed` | Task finished successfully | On successful completion |
| `failed` | Task failed with error | On unrecoverable error |
| `completed_with_warnings` | Task completed but with non-fatal issues | When partial success |

### Standard Database Model Fields

All background task models MUST include these fields:

```python
class BackgroundTaskMixin:
    """Mixin providing standard background task fields."""

    # Required fields
    id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
    status = Column(String(30), nullable=False, default="pending", index=True)
    created_at = Column(DateTime, default=lambda: datetime.now(UTC))
    started_at = Column(DateTime, nullable=True)
    completed_at = Column(DateTime, nullable=True)
    triggered_by = Column(String(100), nullable=True)  # "manual:username", "scheduled", "api"
    error_message = Column(Text, nullable=True)

    # Optional but recommended
    progress_percent = Column(Integer, nullable=True)  # 0-100 for progress tracking
    progress_message = Column(String(255), nullable=True)  # Current step description
```

### Standard Task Type Identifier

Each task type MUST have a unique identifier used for:
- Filtering on background tasks page
- API routing
- Frontend component selection

| Task Type ID | Description | Model |
|--------------|-------------|-------|
| `product_import` | Marketplace product CSV import | `MarketplaceImportJob` |
| `order_import` | Letzshop historical order import | `LetzshopHistoricalImportJob` |
| `product_export` | Product feed export | `ProductExportJob` (new) |
| `test_run` | Pytest execution | `TestRun` |
| `code_quality_scan` | Architecture/Security/Performance scan | `ArchitectureScan` |

---

## API Design Pattern

### Trigger Endpoint

All background tasks MUST follow this pattern:

```
POST /api/v1/{domain}/{task-type}
```

**Request**: Task-specific parameters

**Response** (202 Accepted):
```json
{
  "job_id": 123,
  "task_type": "product_import",
  "status": "pending",
  "message": "Task queued successfully",
  "status_url": "/api/v1/admin/background-tasks/123"
}
```

### Status Endpoint

```
GET /api/v1/admin/background-tasks/{job_id}
```

**Response**:
```json
{
  "id": 123,
  "task_type": "product_import",
  "status": "running",
  "progress_percent": 45,
  "progress_message": "Processing batch 5 of 11",
  "started_at": "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z",
  "completed_at": null,
  "triggered_by": "manual:admin",
  "error_message": null,
  "details": {
    // Task-specific details
  }
}
```

### Unified List Endpoint

```
GET /api/v1/admin/background-tasks
```

Query parameters:
- `task_type` - Filter by type (product_import, order_import, etc.)
- `status` - Filter by status (pending, running, completed, failed)
- `limit` - Number of results (default: 50)

---

## Frontend Design Pattern

### Page-Level Task Status Component

Every page that triggers a background task MUST include:

1. **Task Trigger Button** - Initiates the task
2. **Running Indicator** - Shows when task is in progress
3. **Status Banner** - Shows task status when returning to page
4. **Results Summary** - Shows outcome on completion

### Standard JavaScript Pattern

```javascript
// Task status tracking mixin
const BackgroundTaskMixin = {
    // State
    activeTask: null,  // Current running task
    taskHistory: [],   // Recent tasks for this page
    pollInterval: null,

    // Initialize - check for active tasks on page load
    async initTaskStatus() {
        const tasks = await this.fetchActiveTasks();
        if (tasks.length > 0) {
            this.activeTask = tasks[0];
            this.startPolling();
        }
    },

    // Start a new task
    async startTask(endpoint, params) {
        const result = await apiClient.post(endpoint, params);
        this.activeTask = {
            id: result.job_id,
            status: 'pending',
            task_type: result.task_type
        };
        this.startPolling();
        return result;
    },

    // Poll for status updates
    startPolling() {
        this.pollInterval = setInterval(() => this.pollStatus(), 3000);
    },

    async pollStatus() {
        if (!this.activeTask) return;

        const status = await apiClient.get(
            `/admin/background-tasks/${this.activeTask.id}`
        );

        this.activeTask = status;

        if (['completed', 'failed', 'completed_with_warnings'].includes(status.status)) {
            this.stopPolling();
            this.onTaskComplete(status);
        }
    },

    stopPolling() {
        if (this.pollInterval) {
            clearInterval(this.pollInterval);
            this.pollInterval = null;
        }
    },

    // Override in component
    onTaskComplete(result) {
        // Handle completion
    }
};
```

### Status Banner Component

```html
<!-- Task Status Banner - Include on all pages with background tasks -->
<template x-if="activeTask">
    <div class="mb-4 p-4 rounded-lg"
         :class="{
             'bg-blue-50 dark:bg-blue-900': activeTask.status === 'running',
             'bg-green-50 dark:bg-green-900': activeTask.status === 'completed',
             'bg-red-50 dark:bg-red-900': activeTask.status === 'failed',
             'bg-yellow-50 dark:bg-yellow-900': activeTask.status === 'completed_with_warnings'
         }">
        <div class="flex items-center justify-between">
            <div class="flex items-center">
                <template x-if="activeTask.status === 'running'">
                    <span class="animate-spin mr-2">...</span>
                </template>
                <span x-text="getTaskStatusMessage(activeTask)"></span>
            </div>
            <template x-if="activeTask.progress_percent">
                <div class="w-32 bg-gray-200 rounded-full h-2">
                    <div class="bg-blue-600 h-2 rounded-full"
                         :style="`width: ${activeTask.progress_percent}%`"></div>
                </div>
            </template>
        </div>
    </div>
</template>
```

## Background Tasks Service

### Unified Query Interface

The `BackgroundTasksService` MUST provide methods to query all task types:

```python
class BackgroundTasksService:
    """Unified service for all background task types."""

    TASK_MODELS = {
        'product_import': MarketplaceImportJob,
        'order_import': LetzshopHistoricalImportJob,
        'test_run': TestRun,
        'code_quality_scan': ArchitectureScan,
        'product_export': ProductExportJob,
    }

    def get_all_running_tasks(self, db: Session) -> list[BackgroundTaskResponse]:
        """Get all currently running tasks across all types."""

    def get_tasks(
        self,
        db: Session,
        task_type: str = None,
        status: str = None,
        limit: int = 50
    ) -> list[BackgroundTaskResponse]:
        """Get tasks with optional filtering."""

    def get_task_by_id(
        self,
        db: Session,
        task_id: int,
        task_type: str
    ) -> BackgroundTaskResponse:
        """Get a specific task by ID and type."""
```

## Implementation Checklist

### For Each Background Task Type:

- [ ] Database model includes all standard fields (status, started_at, completed_at, etc.)
- [ ] Status values follow standard enum (pending, running, completed, failed)
- [ ] API returns 202 with job_id on task creation
- [ ] Status endpoint available at standard path
- [ ] Task appears on unified background tasks page
- [ ] Frontend shows status banner on originating page
- [ ] Polling implemented with 3-5 second interval
- [ ] Error handling stores message in error_message field
- [ ] Admin notification triggered on failures

### Migration Plan

| Task | Current State | Required Changes |
|------|---------------|------------------|
| Product Import | Mostly compliant | Change "processing" to "running" |
| Order Import | Partially compliant | Add to background tasks page, standardize status |
| Test Runs | Mostly compliant | Add "pending" status before run starts |
| Product Export | Not async | Create job model, make async |
| Code Quality Scan | **Implemented** ✓ | ~~Add status field, create job pattern, make async~~ |

---

## Code Quality Scan Implementation

The code quality scan background task implementation serves as a reference for the harmonized architecture.

### Files Modified/Created

| File | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `models/database/architecture_scan.py` | Added status fields (status, started_at, completed_at, error_message, progress_message) |
| `alembic/versions/g5b6c7d8e9f0_add_scan_status_fields.py` | Database migration for status fields |
| `app/tasks/code_quality_tasks.py` | Background task function `execute_code_quality_scan()` |
| `app/api/v1/admin/code_quality.py` | Updated endpoints with 202 response and polling |
| `app/services/background_tasks_service.py` | Added scan methods to unified service |
| `app/api/v1/admin/background_tasks.py` | Integrated scans into unified background tasks page |
| `static/admin/js/code-quality-dashboard.js` | Frontend polling and status display |
| `app/templates/admin/code-quality-dashboard.html` | Progress banner UI |

### API Endpoints

```
POST /admin/code-quality/scan
  → Returns 202 with job IDs immediately
  → Response: { scans: [{id, validator_type, status, message}], status_url }

GET /admin/code-quality/scans/{scan_id}/status
  → Poll for individual scan status
  → Response: { id, status, progress_message, total_violations, ... }

GET /admin/code-quality/scans/running
  → Get all currently running scans
  → Response: [{ id, status, progress_message, ... }]
```

### Frontend Behavior

1. **On page load**: Checks for running scans via `/scans/running`
2. **On scan trigger**: Creates scans, stores IDs, starts polling
3. **Polling**: Every 3 seconds via `setInterval`
4. **Progress display**: Shows spinner and progress message
5. **On completion**: Fetches final results, updates dashboard
6. **User can navigate away**: Scan continues in background

### Background Task Pattern

```python
async def execute_code_quality_scan(scan_id: int):
    db = SessionLocal()  # Own database session
    try:
        scan = db.query(ArchitectureScan).get(scan_id)
        scan.status = "running"
        scan.started_at = datetime.now(UTC)
        scan.progress_message = "Running validator..."
        db.commit()

        # Execute validator...

        scan.status = "completed"
        scan.completed_at = datetime.now(UTC)
        db.commit()
    except Exception as e:
        scan.status = "failed"
        scan.error_message = str(e)
        db.commit()
        # Create admin notification
    finally:
        db.close()
```

## Architecture Rules

See `.architecture-rules/background_tasks.yaml` for enforceable rules.

Key rules:
- `BG-001`: All background task models must include standard fields
- `BG-002`: Status values must be from approved set
- `BG-003`: Task triggers must return 202 with job_id
- `BG-004`: All tasks must be registered in BackgroundTasksService
