From d565721cdba18d4a0ec05edbf5e38b27abdfb176 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Phil Skentelbery Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2025 21:24:47 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] fix: Add data transformer to resolve metrics dashboard template mismatch MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Root cause: Template expects flat structure (metrics.database.count) but monitoring module provides nested structure (metrics.by_type.database.count) with different field names (avg_duration_ms vs avg). Solution: Route Adapter Pattern - transformer function maps data structure at presentation layer. Changes: - Add transform_metrics_for_template() function to admin.py - Update metrics_dashboard() route to use transformer - Provide safe defaults for missing/empty metrics data - Handle all operation types: database, http, render Testing: All 32 admin route tests passing Documentation: - Updated implementation report with actual fix details - Created consolidated hotfix design documentation - Architectural review by architect (approved with minor concerns) Technical debt: Adapter layer should be replaced with proper data contracts in v1.2.0 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude --- CHANGELOG.md | 9 +- docs/architecture/hotfix-v1.1.1-rc2-review.md | 152 ++++++++++++++ docs/design/hotfix-v1.1.1-rc2-consolidated.md | 115 ++++++++++ .../hotfix-v1.1.1-rc2-route-conflict.md | 197 ++++++++++++++++++ docs/design/hotfix-validation-script.md | 160 ++++++++++++++ ...11-25-hotfix-v1.1.1-rc.2-implementation.md | 190 ++++++++++++++--- starpunk/routes/admin.py | 57 ++++- 7 files changed, 846 insertions(+), 34 deletions(-) create mode 100644 docs/architecture/hotfix-v1.1.1-rc2-review.md create mode 100644 docs/design/hotfix-v1.1.1-rc2-consolidated.md create mode 100644 docs/design/hotfix-v1.1.1-rc2-route-conflict.md create mode 100644 docs/design/hotfix-validation-script.md diff --git a/CHANGELOG.md b/CHANGELOG.md index 002c7fb..2101150 100644 --- a/CHANGELOG.md +++ b/CHANGELOG.md @@ -10,12 +10,17 @@ and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0 ## [1.1.1-rc.2] - 2025-11-25 ### Fixed -- **CRITICAL**: Resolved route conflict causing 500 error on /admin/dashboard +- **CRITICAL**: Resolved template/data mismatch causing 500 error on metrics dashboard + - Fixed Jinja2 UndefinedError: `'dict object' has no attribute 'database'` + - Added `transform_metrics_for_template()` function to map data structure + - Transforms `metrics.by_type.database` → `metrics.database` for template compatibility + - Maps field names: `avg_duration_ms` → `avg`, `min_duration_ms` → `min`, etc. + - Provides safe defaults for missing/empty metrics data - Renamed metrics dashboard route from `/admin/dashboard` to `/admin/metrics-dashboard` - Added defensive imports to handle missing monitoring module gracefully - All existing `url_for("admin.dashboard")` calls continue to work correctly - Notes dashboard at `/admin/` remains unchanged and functional - - See ADR-022 for design rationale + - See ADR-022 and ADR-060 for design rationale ## [1.1.1] - 2025-11-25 diff --git a/docs/architecture/hotfix-v1.1.1-rc2-review.md b/docs/architecture/hotfix-v1.1.1-rc2-review.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000..067e5a2 --- /dev/null +++ b/docs/architecture/hotfix-v1.1.1-rc2-review.md @@ -0,0 +1,152 @@ +# Architectural Review: Hotfix v1.1.1-rc.2 + +## Executive Summary + +**Overall Assessment: APPROVED WITH MINOR CONCERNS** + +The hotfix successfully resolves the production issue but reveals deeper architectural concerns about data contracts between modules. + +## Part 1: Documentation Reorganization + +### Actions Taken + +1. **Deleted Misclassified ADRs**: + - Removed `/docs/decisions/ADR-022-admin-dashboard-route-conflict-hotfix.md` + - Removed `/docs/decisions/ADR-060-production-hotfix-metrics-dashboard.md` + + **Rationale**: These documented bug fixes, not architectural decisions.
