Description

This PR fixes two problems in packages/moss-md-indexer:

Problem 1: Legacy SDK dependency

The md-indexer depends on @inferedge-rest/moss (last published as 1.0.0-beta.3), a pre-release SDK that the rest of the repo has moved away from. Every other JS package uses @moss-dev/moss. The old package name also appears in vitepress-plugin-moss comments and README. The version range >=1.0.0-beta.3 is unbounded, meaning a future major release under that scope would install without anyone noticing.

Problem 2: Destructive upload behavior

Every time a VitePress build runs, the plugin calls uploadDocuments() which deletes the live index and then recreates it. Until createIndex finishes, search on the deployed site has no index to query. If createIndex fails (network error, quota, bad document), the site is left with no index at all. The deleteIndex call also swallows most errors and only logs a warning.

What changed

In packages/moss-md-indexer/src/uploader.ts:

  • Replaced MossRestClient import from @inferedge-rest/moss with MossClient from @moss-dev/moss
  • Changed deleteIndex parameter type from MossRestClient to MossClient
  • Replaced the delete-then-create flow in uploadDocuments() with non-destructive upsert:
    • Checks if the index exists via getIndex()
    • If missing, creates it with createIndex()
    • If exists, upserts new docs with addDocs(..., { upsert: true }) and removes stale IDs with deleteDocs()
  • Added UploadOptions interface with optional recreate flag to preserve the old behavior when needed
  • The createIndex() function signature and behavior remain unchanged

In packages/moss-md-indexer/package.json:

  • Replaced "@inferedge-rest/moss": ">=1.0.0-beta.3" with "@moss-dev/moss": "^1.0.0"
  • Added "vitest": "^4.1.8" to devDependencies
  • Added "test": "vitest run" script
  • Bumped version from 1.0.0-beta.3 to 1.0.0-beta.4

In packages/moss-md-indexer/tests/uploader.test.ts (new file):

  • 12 unit tests covering: index missing (creates new), index exists (upserts + deletes stale), no stale docs, all docs stale, empty document list (no-op), recreate mode (delete + create), error handling (no delete on failure)
  • Mocks MossClient using vi.hoisted and vi.mock

In packages/vitepress-plugin-moss/indexing.ts:

  • Updated comment from @inferedge-rest/moss MossRestClient to @moss-dev/moss MossClient

In packages/vitepress-plugin-moss/README.md:

  • Updated 3 references from @inferedge-rest/moss to @moss-dev/moss
  • Updated description from "deletes old index, then re-uploads chunks" to "upserts new docs, removes stale ones"

In packages/moss-md-indexer/CHANGELOG.md:

  • Added entry for 1.0.0-beta.4 documenting the migration and new behavior

Fixes #518

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Document uploads now update existing indexes without taking them offline, adding new content and removing stale documents.
    • Failed uploads no longer leave the site without an index.
    • Added an optional recreate mode for full index replacement.
    • Exposed upload configuration options to package consumers.
  • Documentation

    • Updated indexing guidance for non-destructive uploads and current SDK integration.
    • Documented the Node.js 20.4 or later requirement.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for index creation, updates, cleanup, failures, and recreate mode.
  • Chores

    • Updated the Moss SDK integration and package requirements.

Replace the deprecated @inferedge-rest/moss dependency with @moss-dev/moss
and switch from destructive delete-then-create to non-destructive upsert.

The old upload flow deleted the live index before rebuilding it, which meant
search was broken during the upload window and completely gone if the upload
failed. The new flow upserts new documents and removes stale ones, keeping
the index available throughout.

- Replace MossRestClient with MossClient from @moss-dev/moss
- Add non-destructive upsert as default behavior
- Add recreate option for legacy delete-then-create when needed
- Add unit tests for uploader with mocked MossClient
- Update vitepress-plugin-moss references to new package name

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The indexer migrates to @moss-dev/moss. Existing indexes now receive document upserts and stale-document deletions by default. The recreate option preserves delete-then-create behavior. Tests, package metadata, changelog, and VitePress documentation are updated.

Explanation

The implementation meets the functional objectives in #518: it uses @moss-dev/moss, performs non-destructive synchronization by default, supports recreate: true, propagates upload failures, preserves exports, and adds tests, a test script, and a changelog entry. The lockfile acceptance criterion remains unmet. At the reviewed head, packages/moss-md-indexer/package-lock.json still declares version 1.0.0-beta.3 and the direct dependency @inferedge-rest/moss >=1.0.0-beta.3.

Codex review

The PR moves the uploader toward incremental sync, but two edge/API-surface gaps make the new behavior incomplete. The main risk is stale content surviving when the desired corpus becomes empty.

- Add MossClient.close() in finally blocks to release native resources
- Check model mismatch on getIndex and warn user to recreate
- Handle empty docs on existing index (delete all stale docs)
- Add engines field (node >=20.4) matching SDK requirement
- Wrap createIndex in try/catch in default path for consistent error msg
- Add tests for close(), model mismatch, empty docs on existing index
The getIndex existence check is intentionally outside the upload error
wrapper so auth/network errors propagate with their original type and
are not wrapped in 'Moss Upload Failed'. Added comment to make this
explicit for code reviewers.
If the markdown parser fails or returns nothing, we should not wipe
the existing index. Empty document sets now leave the index untouched
with a warning. Users who actually want to clear an index should use
the recreate option.
The empty documents check now runs at the top of uploadDocuments,
before any delete or create calls. This prevents both the recreate
path and the default path from touching the live index when the
document set is empty (e.g. parser failure).

Remove the unsupported MossClient.close() call.

@moss-dev/moss's MossClient has no close() method. When owned is true, deleteIndex and every nonempty uploadDocuments path reach finally and call await mossClient.close(). The call can throw after successful work and can replace the original operation error during unwinding.

Remove this call at the shared client cleanup boundary. If optional lifecycle support is required, call close only when it is a function.

Legacy indexes (no version/artifact) and model-mismatched indexes
now throw with instructions to use recreate: true instead of
warning and continuing with addDocs, which would leave search broken.
IndexInfo has two version fields: index.version (build format) and
model.version (artifact identity). Legacy detection needs the model
artifact version, not the index format version.
Legacy indexes (built by old SDK without model artifact version) are
useless with the new SDK since text queries won't work. Instead of
throwing and telling users to pass recreate:true (which the plugin
doesn't expose), auto-recreate them on first upload. Model mismatches
still throw since that's a user config error.

Legacy indexes still throw with a clear error message, but now the
vitepress plugin reads recreate from search config options and passes
it to uploadDocuments. Users can set recreate: true in their VitePress
config to handle the one-time migration from the old SDK.

  search: {
    provider: 'moss',
    options: { projectId, projectKey, indexName, recreate: true }
  }
uploadDocuments now receives a third argument (UploadOptions).
Update the plugin test to expect { recreate: false } by default.
