PLAT-01: SQLite-to-PostgreSQL migration strategy, runbook, and compatibility harness#801
Conversation
Document the decision to adopt PostgreSQL as the target production database provider while retaining SQLite for local development and CI. Covers alternatives analysis (SQL Server, CockroachDB, MySQL), migration approach via EF Core provider abstraction, and consequences. Refs #84
Step-by-step guide covering pre-migration checklist, schema export via EF Core migrations, CSV-based data export/import in dependency order, row-count and foreign-key integrity verification, smoke test checklist, rollback procedure, and security considerations for credential handling. Refs #84
Validates critical persistence operations across database providers using EF Core's provider abstraction. Tests cover: CRUD on Board, Card, and AutomationProposal; DateTimeOffset round-trip fidelity; GUID storage and foreign-key joins; string collation behavior; nullable field handling; ordering and pagination; enum storage and filtering; aggregate queries (COUNT, GROUP BY); boolean filtering; concurrent insert safety; Unicode string preservation; and a documented test for SQLite's DateTimeOffset ORDER BY limitation. All tests run against SQLite by default (CI); PostgreSQL opt-in via TASKDECK_TEST_POSTGRES_CONNECTION environment variable (future). Refs #84

The provisioning section grants ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE taskdeck to the application user, but the later “Security Considerations” section recommends restricting permissions. Consider tightening the runbook to grant only what the app needs (CONNECT + schema USAGE + DML on tables), or explicitly label the GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES step as a temporary bootstrap that should be replaced by least-privilege grants.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The provider-compatibility harness is described here as validating behavior “across providers”, but the current TestWebApplicationFactory hard-wires SQLite and there is no provider-switching path in this PR. Please adjust this status entry to reflect the current reality (SQLite-only today), or implement/land the opt-in PostgreSQL factory + test run and then keep this wording.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
This entry claims PostgreSQL runs are opt-in via TASKDECK_TEST_POSTGRES_CONNECTION, but no such switch exists in the test infrastructure in this PR (the test factory uses SQLite unconditionally). Please reword as “planned/next step” or add the actual opt-in PostgreSQL test wiring before documenting it here.
| 1. **Provider abstraction via EF Core**: The application already uses EF Core with repository interfaces defined in the Application layer. No domain-layer changes are required. The Infrastructure layer's `DependencyInjection.AddInfrastructure()` will gain a configuration switch (`DatabaseProvider`) to select between `Sqlite` and `PostgreSQL`. | ||
|
|
||
| 2. **Dual-provider compatibility testing**: A test harness validates that critical persistence operations (CRUD, queries, date/time handling, string collation, GUID storage) produce consistent results across SQLite and PostgreSQL. Tests run against SQLite in CI by default; PostgreSQL tests are opt-in via environment variable (`TASKDECK_TEST_POSTGRES_CONNECTION`). | ||
|
|
||
| 3. **Schema migration**: EF Core migrations remain the source of truth. A PostgreSQL migration bundle will be generated from the same model. SQLite-specific constructs (e.g., `AUTOINCREMENT`, FTS5 virtual tables) will need provider-conditional handling. |

The ADR states PostgreSQL compatibility tests are opt-in via TASKDECK_TEST_POSTGRES_CONNECTION, but there’s no implementation of that environment-variable switch/provider-switching factory in the repo right now (SQLite is hard-coded in TestWebApplicationFactory). Please mark this as a future follow-up (and describe the intended mechanism), or implement the switch before asserting it as part of the decision.

Step 1 assumes the app can be switched to PostgreSQL via Taskdeck__DatabaseProvider and that EF migrations will apply cleanly. In the current codebase there’s no DatabaseProvider config switch, and at least one migration contains SQLite-only SQL (FTS5 CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE / trigger), so dotnet ef database update against PostgreSQL will fail. Please either mark this runbook as requiring follow-up work (provider-conditional migrations + DI switch), or document the extra steps needed to make migrations PostgreSQL-compatible.

The class summary references TASKDECK_TEST_POSTGRES_CONNECTION and a “provider-switching factory”, but the current TestWebApplicationFactory configures SQLite unconditionally and there’s no environment-variable switch implemented. Please update the docstring to match current behavior, or add the PostgreSQL opt-in wiring so the harness can actually run against both providers.

String_ContainsQuery_BehaviorIsConsistent doesn’t assert consistent cross-provider behavior: it only checks Count >= 1, which will pass even if SQLite matches both “login” and “LOGIN” while PostgreSQL matches only one (case-sensitive LIKE). Please either rename/reframe this as documenting a known provider difference, or add provider-aware expectations so the harness actually detects incompatibilities.

ConcurrentInserts_DoNotLoseData is labeled as a concurrent-write test, but it performs only sequential Add calls followed by a single SaveChangesAsync() (no parallelism, no multiple DbContexts/transactions). If you want to validate concurrency semantics on PostgreSQL, implement true concurrency behind a PostgreSQL-only gate; otherwise rename this test to reflect that it’s a bulk-insert persistence sanity check.
| **GUID column handling**: SQLite stores GUIDs as text strings. PostgreSQL with Npgsql maps `Guid` properties to the native `uuid` type. EF Core's Npgsql provider accepts standard UUID text format (`xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx`), so CSV import should work directly. If you encounter format errors, verify the GUID format in the CSV matches PostgreSQL's expected input. | ||
|
|
||
| **DateTimeOffset handling**: SQLite stores `DateTimeOffset` as ISO 8601 text strings. PostgreSQL stores them as `timestamptz`. The CSV import should parse ISO 8601 strings correctly. If timezone information is missing from SQLite values, PostgreSQL will assume UTC. | ||

The PostgreSQL row-count verification query also omits several migrated tables (e.g., CardCommentMentions, CommandRunLogs, NotificationPreferences, AgentRunEvents, KnowledgeChunks). Please include the full set so the post-import verification actually covers everything you exported/imported.
| 3. **Schema migration**: EF Core migrations remain the source of truth. A PostgreSQL migration bundle will be generated from the same model. SQLite-specific constructs (e.g., `AUTOINCREMENT`, FTS5 virtual tables) will need provider-conditional handling. | ||

The ADR states data migration will use “row-count and checksum verification”, but the runbook currently documents row counts + FK integrity checks only (no checksum procedure). Please align the ADR with the runbook (remove checksum mention) or add a concrete checksum verification step to the runbook so the stated verification approach is achievable.

Code Review
This pull request introduces a production migration strategy from SQLite to PostgreSQL, featuring ADR-0023, a comprehensive migration runbook, and a 20-test provider-compatibility harness. The reviewer identified several areas for improvement: normalizing string containment queries to handle provider-specific case-sensitivity, refactoring a concurrency test that currently executes sequentially, and including missing tables in the migration integrity checklists.
| // SQLite LIKE is case-insensitive for ASCII, so both match | ||
| containsLogin.Count.Should().BeGreaterThanOrEqualTo(1, |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
The assertion BeGreaterThanOrEqualTo(1) is too permissive for a compatibility test. SQLite's LIKE (used by EF Contains) is case-insensitive for ASCII by default, while PostgreSQL's is case-sensitive. This means the query returns different results depending on the provider (2 vs 1 in this test case). To ensure consistent application behavior across providers, the query should be normalized (e.g., using .ToUpper()) and the test should assert an exact match count.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The test ConcurrentInserts_DoNotLoseData does not actually test concurrency. It performs sequential additions to a single DbContext followed by a single SaveChangesAsync call. To validate provider behavior under true concurrent load (multiple simultaneous writers), the test should use multiple DbContext instances across parallel tasks. If the intent is only to test batch inserts, the test should be renamed to avoid confusion.

The post-migration row-count verification SQL is missing the same set of tables as the pre-migration checklist (CardCommentMentions, CommandRunLogs, NotificationPreferences, AgentRunEvents, and KnowledgeChunks). Including these is necessary to verify that all data was successfully transferred to PostgreSQL.

Summary
The ADR is well-written and the alternatives analysis is thorough. The test harness is well-structured and covers useful patterns. The core problem is that the runbook has data integrity gaps (missing/phantom tables, FTS migration blocker) and the test harness's "dual-provider" claim is aspirational rather than implemented. |
Runbook fixes: - Remove phantom ApiKeys table from all 4 sections (does not exist in schema) - Add 5 missing tables to pre-migration count query (AgentRunEvents, CardCommentMentions, CommandRunLogs, KnowledgeChunks, NotificationPreferences) - Add 3 missing tables to Step 4 verification (AgentRunEvents, CardCommentMentions, KnowledgeChunks) - Add FTS5 migration blocker warning to Step 1 with provider-conditional guard guidance - Expand FTS migration note with KnowledgeDocumentsFts exclusion guidance - Add session_replication_role FK deferral during bulk import Test harness fixes: - Update class docstring to honestly state SQLite-only (PostgreSQL is TODO) - Rename ConcurrentInserts_DoNotLoseData to BatchInsert_DoesNotLoseData with accurate docstring explaining it is not a concurrency test - Fix Contains test: EF Core Contains() is case-sensitive on both providers; tighten assertion from BeGreaterThanOrEqualTo(1) to Be(1) with accurate provider behavior documentation
