Three sync callsites (endpoints/sync.py, sync_watcher.py, and both
branches of tasks/sync_push_pull_task.py) ran get_saves(...) and then
discarded archival null-slot rows in a Python list comprehension. On
libraries with many archival/web-UI uploads that's a strict waste:
those rows are pulled from MariaDB, hydrated into Save model instances,
and then immediately filtered out.
Add a slot_not_null bool kwarg to DBSavesHandler.get_saves and apply
the filter in the SQL query. Update all four callsites to use it and
drop the Python-side comprehension. Default stays False so unrelated
callers keep the current behavior.
get_all_saves() materialized every Save row across all users into a
single .all() list. On instances with very large libraries that's a
real RAM ceiling and pins every row for the lifetime of the recompute
run.
Replace it with get_saves_after_id(after_id, limit) and have the
recompute task drive keyset pagination in PAGE_SIZE-row chunks. SQLAlchemy
streaming via .execution_options(yield_per=...) is incompatible with the
per-call session lifetime that @begin_session enforces (the session
exits before the consumer iterates), so keyset paging from the caller is
the cleanest fit.
Behavior is unchanged: same row coverage, same idempotency, same
counters. Memory usage drops from O(all saves) to O(PAGE_SIZE).
Cleanup pass on save-sync addressing three independent failure modes
that interact in production data: content_hash drift between client
and server, null-slot archival saves leaking into sync flows, and
content-hash dedupe collapsing legitimately-distinct slots.
Bug fixes
- compute_content_hash dispatched on zipfile.is_zipfile(relative_path),
which silently returned False whenever the process's CWD wasn't
ASSETS_BASE_PATH. Every zip save fell through to the raw-MD5 branch,
persisting hashes that disagreed with clients computing the intended
per-entry zip-hash. Resolve to a full path before the dispatch.
- _build_negotiate_plan, sync_push_pull_task, and sync_watcher all
treated null-slot saves as sync-eligible. Null-slot saves represent
web-UI / archival uploads; including them in negotiate plans matched
them against device pushes by filename and overwrote archival data.
Filter null-slot saves at all three call sites.
- get_save_by_content_hash matched on (rom_id, user_id, content_hash)
only, so identical bytes uploaded to different slots collapsed into
one record. Scope the lookup by slot when provided so clone-save-
to-new-slot creates a distinct row per slot.
- get_save_by_filename matched on (rom_id, user_id, file_name) only.
When two uploads to different slots happened in the same wall-clock
second (the datetime tag is per-second), the second upload UPDATED
the first record's slot instead of creating a distinct row. Scope
the filename lookup by slot too.
One-shot recovery
- New recompute_save_content_hashes manual task walks every Save row,
recomputes via the fixed dispatch, and updates rows whose values
differ. Idempotent; safe to re-run.
- Backend startup runs a COUNT(content_hash IS NULL) query and, if
any rows exist, enqueues the recompute task on the low-priority
RQ queue. The API process moves on; the worker handles the
recompute out-of-band. Subsequent restarts find zero NULL hashes
and skip. Admins can also trigger the task manually.
Test infrastructure
- Added tests/_zipfile_shim.reload_zipfile() mirroring the pattern
from utils/zip_cache.py for the same zipfile-inflate64 + CPython
3.13.5 incompatibility. Test fixtures that build ZIPs call it
immediately before opening the archive.
Add order_by and order_dir parameters to get_saves() for flexible
sorting. Supports "updated_at" and "created_at" fields with "asc" or
"desc" direction (default: desc). Enables ascending order for pruning
scenarios.
- Add device registration and save synchronization
- Implement slot-based save organization with datetime tagging
- Add conflict detection for multi-device sync scenarios
- Add content hash computation for save deduplication
- Support ZIP inner-file hashing for consistent deduplication
- Add confirm_download endpoint for sync state management
- Add overwrite parameter to bypass conflict checks
