Summary

Implements Issue #57: PostGIS table discovery feature that allows users to discover and list all spatial tables in a PostGIS database.

Changes

  • New API Endpoint: GET /api/admin/connections/{id}/tables
  • 🗄️ PostgreSQL Table Discovery: Queries geometry_columns and geography_columns system views
  • 📊 Rich Metadata: Returns table schema, name, geometry column info, SRID, estimated row count, and all non-geometry columns
  • 🧪 Integration Tests: Comprehensive test suite with AOT-compatible JSON serialization
  • 📝 Source-Generated Logging: High-performance logging for AOT compatibility
  • 🏗️ Feature Organization: Follows greenfield project patterns with proper separation of concerns

API Response Format

{
  "tables": [
    {
      "schema": "public",
      "table": "parcels",
      "geometryColumn": "geom", 
      "geometryType": "MULTIPOLYGON",
      "srid": 4326,
      "estimatedRows": 50000,
      "columns": [
        {
          "name": "id",
          "dataType": "integer",
          "isNullable": false,
          "isPrimaryKey": true
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Technical Implementation

  • AOT Compatible: Full native AOT compilation support with source-generated JSON serialization
  • Performance Optimized: Uses parameterized queries and column indexes for efficiency
  • Error Handling: Comprehensive error handling with proper HTTP status codes
  • Security: Excludes system schemas and uses safe query patterns
  • Testing: Integration tests with proper test attributes for categorization

Verification Steps

  • ✅ Builds successfully in Debug mode
  • ✅ AOT publish succeeds without warnings
  • dotnet format applied and clean
  • ✅ Integration tests pass
  • ✅ Follows project architectural patterns
  • ✅ Implements exact API specified in issue

Closes #57

- Add Honua.AppHost project for local development orchestration
- Configure PostgreSQL with PostGIS container (postgis/postgis:16-3.4)
- Configure Redis container with Redis Commander for debugging
- Add Honua.ServiceDefaults with shared OpenTelemetry configuration
- Implement traces (ASP.NET Core, HttpClient), metrics (ASP.NET Core, runtime, custom)
- Configure conditional OTLP export when OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT is set
- Add service discovery and health checks
- Enable AOT compilation for production deployments
- Update Honua.Server to integrate with ServiceDefaults

Local development: dotnet run in src/Honua.AppHost starts full stack
Production build: dotnet publish with native AOT compilation (24MB binary)
Resolved conflicts by integrating Aspire ServiceDefaults into existing trunk implementation:
- Added ServiceDefaults project reference to Honua.Server.csproj
- Integrated AddServiceDefaults() and Aspire data sources into Program.cs
- Preserved existing Serilog, database migrations, and health check infrastructure
- Added copyright headers to ServiceDefaults and AppHost projects
- Removed unnecessary using statements via dotnet format
- All builds pass with 0 warnings, 0 errors
- All tests pass (104/104)
- AOT build successful (27MB binary)
- Add GET /api/admin/connections/{id}/tables endpoint
- Implement PostgreSqlTableDiscoveryService for PostGIS table discovery
- Query geometry_columns and geography_columns system views
- Return table metadata including schema, name, geometry info, SRID, and columns
- Add comprehensive integration tests with AOT-compatible JSON serialization
- Include source-generated logging for performance
- Follow greenfield project patterns with feature-based organization
- Resolved merge conflict in Program.cs by preserving both admin and default endpoints
- Fixed AOT compilation errors by removing RequiresUnreferencedCode attributes
- Replaced generic Map() with MapGet() for true AOT compatibility
- Removed unnecessary System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis using directive
- Remove RequiresUnreferencedCode and RequiresDynamicCode attributes
- Use explicit HttpContext parameter extraction instead of reflection-based binding
- Replace method parameter injection with manual route value extraction
- Ensures full AOT compatibility for minimal API endpoints
- Replace MapGet with MapMethods using explicit RequestDelegate
- Add HandleGetConnectionTables method for proper AOT-compatible endpoint registration
- Eliminates all reflection-based parameter binding that caused AOT warnings
- Ensures native compilation compatibility with zero warnings

🤖 LLM Architecture Review

Assessment: APPROVED

🏗️ Architecture Review Summary

✅ Good Patterns Found:

  • Use of Minimal APIs in AdminEndpoints.cs aligns with the architectural requirement for lightweight, focused endpoints (src/Honua.Server/Features/Admin/AdminEndpoints.cs:10).
  • Dependency injection is correctly used to manage services like ITableDiscoveryService, promoting loose coupling and testability (src/Honua.Server/Program.cs:71).
  • Proper use of asynchronous programming patterns in endpoint handlers ensures scalability and efficient resource use (src/Honua.Server/Features/Admin/AdminEndpoints.cs:44).

⚠️ Architecture Concerns:

  • Critical: Dependency inversion violation with the Core layer depending on Infrastructure, seen in AdminEndpoints.cs where IDatabaseConnectionProvider is directly used (src/Honua.Server/Features/Admin/AdminEndpoints.cs:75). This should be abstracted through interfaces defined in the Core layer.
  • Warning: The PostgreSqlTableDiscoveryService class is tightly coupled to PostgreSQL, which may limit flexibility if database technologies are changed in the future (src/Honua.Server/Features/Admin/Services/PostgreSqlTableDiscoveryService.cs:10).
  • Warning: Synchronous operations found in GetEstimatedRowCountAsync and GetTableColumnsAsync methods which might block threads under high load (src/Honua.Server/Features/Admin/Services/PostgreSqlTableDiscoveryService.cs:248, 287).

💡 Recommendations:

  • Refactor the PostgreSqlTableDiscoveryService to use an interface that abstracts database operations, allowing for easier swapping of database technologies:
    public interface IDatabaseService {
        Task<List<TableInfo>> ExecuteQueryAsync(string query, CancellationToken cancellationToken);
    }
  • Replace direct instantiation of NpgsqlConnection with a factory pattern to improve testability and reduce coupling:
    public class ConnectionFactory : IConnectionFactory {
        public DbConnection CreateConnection(string connectionString) {
            return new NpgsqlConnection(connectionString);
        }
    }

📚 Educational Notes:

  • Dependency inversion is crucial in maintaining a clean architecture, where high-level modules should not depend on low-level modules, but both should depend on abstractions. This promotes a more maintainable and flexible codebase, especially important in systems like geospatial servers where underlying technologies may need to be swapped based on performance and scalability requirements.
  • Asynchronous programming is vital in I/O-bound operations common in web servers to prevent blocking threads on the thread pool, which can lead to scalability issues under high load. This is especially critical in geospatial data handling which can be computationally and I/O intensive.

Overall Assessment: NEEDS_ATTENTION

CRITICAL: The PR is linked to a GitHub issue with clear acceptance criteria, and the changes address those criteria. However, the dependency inversion violation is a critical architectural concern that needs resolution before merging.
