# LibNovel Scraper Rewrite — Project Todos

## Overview

Split the monolithic scraper into two separate binaries inside the same Go module:

| Binary | Command | Location | Responsibility |
|--------|---------|----------|----------------|
| **runner** | `cmd/runner` | Homelab | Polls remote PB for pending scrape tasks → scrapes novelfire.net → writes books, chapters, audio to remote PB + MinIO |
| **backend** | `cmd/backend` | Production | Serves the UI HTTP API, creates scrape/audio tasks in PB, presigns MinIO URLs, proxies progress/voices, owns user auth |

### Key decisions recorded
- Task delivery: **scheduled pull** (runner polls PB on a ticker, e.g. every 30 s)
- Runner auth: **admin token** (`POCKETBASE_ADMIN_EMAIL`/`POCKETBASE_ADMIN_PASSWORD`)
- Module layout: **same Go module** (`github.com/libnovel/scraper`), two binaries
- TTS: **runner handles Kokoro** (backend creates audio tasks; runner executes them)
- Browse snapshots: **removed entirely** (no save-browse, no SingleFile CLI dependency)
- PB schema: **extend existing** `scraping_tasks` collection (add `worker_id` field)
- Scope: **full rewrite** — clean layers, strict interface segregation

---

## Phase 0 — Module & Repo skeleton

### T-01  Restructure cmd/ layout
**Description**: Create `cmd/runner/main.go` and `cmd/backend/main.go` entry points. Remove the old `cmd/scraper/` entry point (or keep temporarily as a stub). Update `go.mod` module path if needed.
**Unit tests**: `cmd/runner/main_test.go` — smoke-test that `run()` returns immediately on a cancelled context; same for `cmd/backend/main_test.go`.
**Status**: [ ] pending

### T-02  Create shared `internal/config` package
**Description**: Replace the ad-hoc `envOr()` helpers scattered in main.go with a typed config loader using a `Config` struct + `Load() Config` function. Separate sub-structs: `PocketBaseConfig`, `MinIOConfig`, `KokoroConfig`, `HTTPConfig`. Each binary calls `config.Load()`.
**Unit tests**: `internal/config/config_test.go` — verify defaults, env override for each field, zero-value safety.
**Status**: [ ] pending

---

## Phase 1 — Core domain interfaces (interface segregation)

### T-03  Define `TaskQueue` interface (`internal/taskqueue`)
**Description**: Create a new package `internal/taskqueue` with two interfaces:
- `Producer` — used by the **backend** to create tasks:
  ```go
  type Producer interface {
      CreateScrapeTask(ctx, kind, targetURL string) (string, error)
      CreateAudioTask(ctx, slug string, chapter int, voice string) (string, error)
      CancelTask(ctx, id string) error
  }
  ```
- `Consumer` — used by the **runner** to poll and claim tasks:
  ```go
  type Consumer interface {
      ClaimNextScrapeTask(ctx context.Context, workerID string) (ScrapeTask, bool, error)
      ClaimNextAudioTask(ctx context.Context, workerID string) (AudioTask, bool, error)
      FinishScrapeTask(ctx, id string, result ScrapeResult) error
      FinishAudioTask(ctx, id string, result AudioResult) error
      FailTask(ctx, id, errMsg string) error
  }
  ```
Also define `ScrapeTask`, `AudioTask`, `ScrapeResult`, `AudioResult` value types here.
**Unit tests**: `internal/taskqueue/taskqueue_test.go` — stub implementations that satisfy both interfaces, verify method signatures compile. Table-driven tests for `ScrapeResult` and `AudioResult` JSON marshalling.
**Status**: [ ] pending

### T-04  Define `BookStore` interface (`internal/bookstore`)
**Description**: Decompose the monolithic `storage.Store` into focused read/write interfaces consumed by specific components:
- `BookWriter` — `WriteMetadata`, `WriteChapter`, `WriteChapterRefs`
- `BookReader` — `ReadMetadata`, `ReadChapter`, `ListChapters`, `CountChapters`, `LocalSlugs`, `MetadataMtime`, `ChapterExists`
- `RankingStore` — `WriteRankingItem`, `ReadRankingItems`, `RankingFreshEnough`
- `PresignStore` — `PresignChapter`, `PresignAudio`, `PresignAvatarUpload`, `PresignAvatarURL`
- `AudioStore` — `PutAudio`, `AudioExists`, `AudioObjectKey`
- `ProgressStore` — `GetProgress`, `SetProgress`, `AllProgress`, `DeleteProgress`

These live in `internal/bookstore/interfaces.go`. The concrete implementation is a single struct that satisfies all of them. The runner only gets `BookWriter + RankingStore + AudioStore`. The backend only gets `BookReader + PresignStore + ProgressStore`.
**Unit tests**: `internal/bookstore/interfaces_test.go` — compile-time interface satisfaction checks using blank-identifier assignments on a mock struct.
**Status**: [ ] pending

### T-05  Rewrite `internal/scraper/interfaces.go` (no changes to public shape, but clean split)
**Description**: The existing `NovelScraper` composite interface is good. Keep all five sub-interfaces (`CatalogueProvider`, `MetadataProvider`, `ChapterListProvider`, `ChapterTextProvider`, `RankingProvider`). Ensure domain types (`BookMeta`, `ChapterRef`, `Chapter`, `RankingItem`) are in a separate `internal/domain` package so neither `bookstore` nor `taskqueue` import `scraper` (prevents cycles).
**Unit tests**: `internal/domain/domain_test.go` — JSON roundtrip tests for `BookMeta`, `ChapterRef`, `Chapter`, `RankingItem`.
**Status**: [ ] pending

---

## Phase 2 — Storage layer rewrite

### T-06  Rewrite `internal/storage/pocketbase.go`
**Description**: Clean rewrite of the PocketBase REST client. Must satisfy `taskqueue.Producer`, `taskqueue.Consumer`, and all `bookstore` interfaces. Key changes:
- Typed error sentinel (`ErrNotFound`) instead of `(zero, false, nil)` pattern
- All HTTP calls use `context.Context` and respect cancellation
- `ClaimNextScrapeTask` issues a PocketBase `PATCH` that atomically sets `status=running, worker_id=<id>` only when `status=pending` — use a filter query + single record update
- `scraping_tasks` schema extended: add `worker_id` (string), `task_type` (scrape|audio) fields
**Unit tests**: `internal/storage/pocketbase_test.go` — mock HTTP server (`httptest.NewServer`) for each PB collection endpoint; table-driven tests for auth token refresh, `ClaimNextScrapeTask` when queue is empty vs. has pending task, `FinishScrapeTask` happy path, error on 4xx response.
**Status**: [ ] pending

### T-07  Rewrite `internal/storage/minio.go`
**Description**: Clean rewrite of the MinIO client. Must satisfy `bookstore.AudioStore` + presign methods. Key changes:
- `PutObject` wrapped to accept `io.Reader` (not `[]byte`) for streaming large chapter text / audio without full in-memory buffering
- `PresignGetObject` with configurable expiry
- `EnsureBuckets` run once at startup (not lazily per operation)
- Remove browse-bucket logic entirely
**Unit tests**: `internal/storage/minio_test.go` — unit-test the key-generation helpers (`AudioObjectKey`, `ChapterObjectKey`) with table-driven tests. Integration tests remain in `_integration_test.go` with build tag.
**Status**: [ ] pending

### T-08  Rewrite `internal/storage/hybrid.go` → `internal/storage/store.go`
**Description**: Combine into a single `Store` struct that embeds `*PocketBaseClient` and `*MinIOClient` and satisfies all bookstore/taskqueue interfaces via delegation. Remove the separate `hybrid.go` file. `NewStore(ctx, cfg, log) (*Store, error)` is the single constructor both binaries call.
**Unit tests**: `internal/storage/store_test.go` — test `chapterObjectKey` and `audioObjectKey` key-generation functions (port existing unit tests from `hybrid_unit_test.go`).
**Status**: [ ] pending

---

## Phase 3 — Scraper layer rewrite

### T-09  Rewrite `internal/novelfire/scraper.go`
**Description**: Full rewrite of the novelfire scraper. Changes:
- Accept only a single `browser.Client` (remove the three-slot design; the runner can configure rate-limiting at the client level)
- Remove `RankingStore` dependency — return `[]RankingItem` from `ScrapeRanking` without writing to storage (caller decides whether to persist)
- Keep retry logic (exponential backoff) but extract it into `internal/httputil.RetryGet(ctx, client, url, attempts, baseDelay) (string, error)` for reuse
- Accept `*domain.BookMeta` directly, not `scraper.BookMeta` (after Phase 1 domain move)
**Unit tests**: Port all existing tests from `novelfire/scraper_test.go` and `novelfire/ranking_test.go` to the new package layout. Add test for `RetryGet` abort on context cancellation.
**Status**: [ ] pending

### T-10  Rewrite `internal/orchestrator/orchestrator.go`
**Description**: Clean rewrite. Changes:
- Accept `taskqueue.Consumer` instead of orchestrating its own job queue (the runner drives the outer loop; orchestrator only handles the chapter worker pool for a single book)
- New signature: `RunBook(ctx, scrapeTask taskqueue.ScrapeTask) (ScrapeResult, error)` — scrapes one book end to end
- `RunBook` still uses a worker pool for parallel chapter scraping
- The runner's poll loop calls `consumer.ClaimNextScrapeTask`, then `orchestrator.RunBook`, then `consumer.FinishScrapeTask`
**Unit tests**: Port `orchestrator/orchestrator_test.go`. Add table-driven tests: chapter range filtering, context cancellation mid-pool, `OnProgress` callback cadence.
**Status**: [ ] pending

### T-11  Rewrite `internal/browser/` HTTP client
**Description**: Keep `BrowserClient` interface and `NewDirectHTTPClient`. Remove all Browserless variants (no longer needed). Add proxy support via `Config.ProxyURL`. Export `Config` cleanly.
**Unit tests**: `internal/browser/browser_test.go` — test `NewDirectHTTPClient` with a `httptest.Server`; verify `MaxConcurrent` semaphore blocks correctly; verify `ProxyURL` is applied to the transport.
**Status**: [ ] pending

---

## Phase 4 — Runner binary

### T-12  Implement `internal/runner/runner.go`
**Description**: The runner's main loop:
```
for {
    select case <-ticker.C:
        // try to claim a scrape task
        task, ok, _ := consumer.ClaimNextScrapeTask(ctx, workerID)
        if ok { go runScrapeJob(ctx, task) }

        // try to claim an audio task
        audio, ok, _ := consumer.ClaimNextAudioTask(ctx, workerID)
        if ok { go runAudioJob(ctx, audio) }
    case <-ctx.Done():
        return
    }
}
```
`runScrapeJob` calls `orchestrator.RunBook`. `runAudioJob` calls `kokoroclient.GenerateAudio` then `store.PutAudio`.
Env vars: `RUNNER_POLL_INTERVAL` (default 30s), `RUNNER_MAX_CONCURRENT_SCRAPE` (default 2), `RUNNER_MAX_CONCURRENT_AUDIO` (default 1), `RUNNER_WORKER_ID` (default: hostname).
**Unit tests**: `internal/runner/runner_test.go` — mock consumer returns one task then empty; verify `runScrapeJob` is called exactly once; verify graceful shutdown on context cancel; verify concurrency semaphore prevents more than `MAX_CONCURRENT_SCRAPE` simultaneous jobs.
**Status**: [ ] pending

### T-13  Implement `internal/kokoro/client.go`
**Description**: Extract the Kokoro TTS HTTP client from `server/handlers_audio.go` into its own package `internal/kokoro`. Interface:
```go
type Client interface {
    GenerateAudio(ctx context.Context, text, voice string) ([]byte, error)
    ListVoices(ctx context.Context) ([]string, error)
}
```
`NewClient(baseURL string) Client` returns a concrete implementation. `GenerateAudio` calls `POST /v1/audio/speech` and returns the raw MP3 bytes. `ListVoices` calls `GET /v1/audio/voices`.
**Unit tests**: `internal/kokoro/client_test.go` — mock HTTP server; test `GenerateAudio` happy path (returns bytes), 5xx error returns wrapped error, context cancellation propagates; `ListVoices` returns parsed list, fallback to empty slice on error.
**Status**: [ ] pending

### T-14  Write `cmd/runner/main.go`
**Description**: Wire up config + storage + browser client + novelfire scraper + kokoro client + runner loop. Signal handling (SIGINT/SIGTERM → cancel context → graceful drain). Log structured startup info.
**Unit tests**: `cmd/runner/main_test.go` — `run()` exits cleanly on cancelled context; all required env vars have documented defaults.
**Status**: [ ] pending

---

## Phase 5 — Backend binary

### T-15  Define backend HTTP handler interfaces
**Description**: Create `internal/backend/handlers.go` (not a concrete type yet — just the interface segregation scaffold). Each handler group gets its own dependency interface, e.g.:
- `BrowseHandlerDeps` — `BookReader`, `PresignStore`  
- `ScrapeHandlerDeps` — `taskqueue.Producer`, scrape task reader  
- `AudioHandlerDeps` — `bookstore.AudioStore`, `taskqueue.Producer`, `kokoro.Client`  
- `ProgressHandlerDeps` — `bookstore.ProgressStore`  
- `AuthHandlerDeps` — thin wrapper around PocketBase user auth  

This ensures handlers are independently testable with small focused mocks.
**Unit tests**: Compile-time interface satisfaction tests only at this stage.
**Status**: [ ] pending

### T-16  Implement backend HTTP handlers
**Description**: Rewrite all handlers from `server/handlers_*.go` into `internal/backend/`. Endpoints to preserve:
- `GET /health`, `GET /api/version`
- `GET /api/browse`, `GET /api/search`, `GET /api/ranking`, `GET /api/cover/{domain}/{slug}`
- `GET /api/book-preview/{slug}`, `GET /api/chapter-text-preview/{slug}/{n}`
- `GET /api/chapter-text/{slug}/{n}`
- `POST /scrape`, `POST /scrape/book`, `POST /scrape/book/range` (create PB tasks; return 202)
- `GET /api/scrape/status`, `GET /api/scrape/tasks`
- `POST /api/reindex/{slug}`
- `POST /api/audio/{slug}/{n}` (create audio task; return 202)
- `GET /api/audio/status/{slug}/{n}`, `GET /api/audio-proxy/{slug}/{n}`
- `GET /api/voices`
- `GET /api/presign/chapter/{slug}/{n}`, `GET /api/presign/audio/{slug}/{n}`, `GET /api/presign/voice-sample/{voice}`, `GET /api/presign/avatar-upload/{userId}`, `GET /api/presign/avatar/{userId}`
- `GET /api/progress`, `POST /api/progress/{slug}`, `DELETE /api/progress/{slug}`

Remove: `POST /api/audio/voice-samples` (voice samples are generated by runner on demand).
**Unit tests**: `internal/backend/handlers_test.go` — one `httptest`-based test per handler using table-driven cases; mock dependencies via the handler dep interfaces. Focus: correct status codes, JSON shape, error propagation.
**Status**: [ ] pending

### T-17  Implement `internal/backend/server.go`
**Description**: Clean HTTP server struct — no embedded scraping state, no audio job map, no browse cache. Dependencies injected via constructor. Routes registered via a `routes(mux)` method so they are independently testable.
**Unit tests**: `internal/backend/server_test.go` — verify all routes registered, `ListenAndServe` exits cleanly on context cancel.
**Status**: [ ] pending

### T-18  Write `cmd/backend/main.go`
**Description**: Wire up config + storage + kokoro client + backend server. Signal handling. Structured startup logging.
**Unit tests**: `cmd/backend/main_test.go` — same smoke tests as runner.
**Status**: [ ] pending

---

## Phase 6 — Cleanup & cross-cutting

### T-19  Port and extend unit tests
**Description**: Ensure all existing passing unit tests (`htmlutil`, `novelfire`, `orchestrator`, `storage` unit tests) are ported / updated for the new package layout. Remove integration-test stubs that are no longer relevant.
**Unit tests**: All tests under `internal/` must pass with `go test ./... -short`.
**Status**: [ ] pending

### T-20  Update `go.mod` and dependencies
**Description**: Remove unused dependencies (e.g. Browserless-related). Verify `go mod tidy` produces a clean output. Update `Dockerfile` to build both `runner` and `backend` binaries. Update `docker-compose.yml` to run both services.
**Unit tests**: `go build ./...` and `go vet ./...` pass cleanly.
**Status**: [ ] pending

### T-21  Update `AGENTS.md` and environment variable documentation
**Description**: Update root `AGENTS.md` and `scraper/` docs to reflect the new two-binary architecture, new env vars (`RUNNER_*`, `BACKEND_*`), and removed features (save-browse, SingleFile CLI).
**Unit tests**: N/A — documentation only.
**Status**: [ ] pending

### T-22  Write `internal/httputil` package
**Description**: Extract shared HTTP helpers reused by both binaries:
- `RetryGet(ctx, client, url, maxAttempts int, baseDelay time.Duration) (string, error)` — exponential backoff
- `WriteJSON(w, status, v)` — standard JSON response helper
- `DecodeJSON(r, v) error` — standard JSON decode with size limit

**Unit tests**: `internal/httputil/httputil_test.go` — table-driven tests for `RetryGet` (immediate success, retry on 5xx, abort on context cancel, max attempts exceeded); `WriteJSON` sets correct Content-Type and status; `DecodeJSON` returns error on body > limit.
**Status**: [ ] pending

---

## Dependency graph (simplified)

```
internal/domain          ← pure types, no imports from this repo
internal/httputil        ← domain (none), stdlib only
internal/browser         ← httputil
internal/scraper         ← domain
internal/novelfire       ← browser, scraper/domain, httputil
internal/kokoro          ← httputil
internal/bookstore       ← domain
internal/taskqueue       ← domain
internal/storage         ← bookstore, taskqueue, domain, minio-go, ...
internal/orchestrator    ← scraper, bookstore
internal/runner          ← orchestrator, taskqueue, kokoro, storage
internal/backend         ← bookstore, taskqueue, kokoro, storage
cmd/runner               ← runner, config
cmd/backend              ← backend, config
```

No circular imports. Runner and backend never import each other.
