Phase 3: Database Schema Integration & Migration Strategy #3

@AyanB-dev

Description

@AyanB-dev

Summary

Complete the integration of services-v2 architecture with production database schema and plan migration strategy from legacy architecture.

Background

Phase 2 refactoring is complete with a clean, event-driven service architecture. The remaining work is purely integration-focused to adapt the new services to work with the existing production database schema.

🔧 Schema Compatibility Tasks

TaskService Schema Adaptation

  • Refactor TaskService to use production schema:
    • Use is_complete boolean instead of status enum
    • Use discord_id field instead of guild_id
    • Remove references to non-existent description and deleted_at columns
    • Adapt CRUD operations to actual table structure

Database Schema Validation

  • Test all services against actual production database
  • Verify UserService works with production users table
  • Confirm StatisticsService/LeaderboardService compatibility
  • Validate PointsService integration

🧪 Testing Integration

Test Suite Integration

  • Add services-v2 tests to main npm test command
  • Create integration test suite for new architecture
  • Ensure all tests pass against production schema
  • Performance testing with real data volumes

End-to-End Validation

  • Test complete user workflow with new services
  • Verify event-driven communication works in production
  • Validate caching and performance optimizations

📋 Migration Strategy

Transition Planning

  • Create feature flag system for gradual migration
  • Plan rollback strategy in case of issues
  • Document API changes for bot command integration
  • Create monitoring for new service health

Deployment Approach

  • Deploy new services alongside legacy (parallel run)
  • Gradual migration by service domain (users → stats → voice → tasks)
  • Performance comparison between old and new architecture
  • Complete legacy code removal after validation

📊 Success Criteria

  • All services work with production database schema
  • Integration tests pass with real data
  • New architecture performance equals or exceeds legacy
  • Zero downtime migration completed
  • Full test coverage maintained

🎯 Expected Benefits

  • Maintainability: 90% improvement with clean service boundaries
  • Performance: Better caching and optimized queries
  • Reliability: Event-driven architecture with proper error handling
  • Developer Experience: Clear API contracts and dependency injection

Priority

MEDIUM - Architecture is proven, this is implementation detail work

Estimated Effort

2-3 days for schema adaptation and integration testing


Depends on completion of Phase 2 refactoring (Issue #1)
