# Postgres Runtime Cutover Status

> **Current branch:** backend `integrate-main-into-development`, version `2.9.12`.
>
> **Bottom line: Migration complete as of 2026-06-06, backend v2.9.12.** MongoDB and Mongoose have been fully removed from the runtime. PostgreSQL (Drizzle ORM) is the sole database. All 11 repository domains use DrizzleXxxRepo exclusively. No dual-write wrappers are active. TypeScript compilation: 0 errors.

## Migration Status

| Phase | Status |
|---|---|
| Schema design | Complete — 32 tables, 19 migrations (0000–0019) |
| Drizzle repos | Complete — all 11 factory domains have a DrizzleXxxRepo |
| Dual-write wrappers | Decommissioned — removed from runtime as of v2.9.12 |
| Write cutover | Complete — all writes go to PostgreSQL only |
| Read cutover | Complete — all reads from PostgreSQL |
| Mongoose removal | Complete — no Mongoose imports in runtime src/ |
| TypeScript compilation | 0 errors |

## Schema and Repository Coverage

### Tables with Full Drizzle Schema

All tables below have a `.ts` schema file in `src/db/schema/` and are covered by at least one migration:

**Infrastructure:** `id_map`, `pg_dualwrite_gaps`

**Auth/Users:** `users`, `user_passkeys`, `user_refresh_tokens`, `telegram_links`, `telegram_sessions`

**Marketplace:** `categories`, `purchase_requests`, `purchase_request_delivery_info`, `purchase_request_delivery_address`, `purchase_request_seller_delivery_info`, `purchase_request_service_info`, `purchase_request_specifications`, `purchase_request_preferred_sellers`, `delivery_attempts`, `seller_offers`, `request_templates`

**Payments:** `payments`, `payment_quotes`, `funds_ledger_entries`, `derived_destinations`, `derived_destination_sweeps`

**Points/Wallet:** `point_transactions`, `trezor_accounts`, `trezor_derived_addresses`

**Config/Ops:** `config_settings`, `config_setting_history`, `shop_settings`, `addresses`, `reviews`

**Content/Social:** `blog_posts`, `notifications`, `disputes`, `chats`

Total: **32 tables** across 19 migrations (0000–0019).

### Tables with a Drizzle Repository

| Drizzle Repo | Domain |
|---|---|
| `DrizzleUserRepo` | Users, passkeys, refresh tokens |
| `DrizzlePaymentRepo` | Payments, funds ledger |
| `DrizzleMarketplaceRepo` | Categories, purchase requests, seller offers, request templates |
| `DrizzleDerivedDestinationRepo` | Derived destinations, sweeps |
| `DrizzleTrezorAccountRepo` | Trezor accounts, derived addresses |
| `DrizzlePointsRepo` | Point transactions |
| `DrizzleNotificationRepo` | Notifications |
| `DrizzleDisputeRepo` | Disputes |
| `DrizzleBlogRepo` | Blog posts |
| `DrizzleChatRepo` | Chats (JSONB shim; Chat normalization is an optional future improvement) |
| `DrizzleReleaseHoldRepo` | Release holds (bridges payments + purchase_requests) |

Tables with schema but no dedicated Drizzle repo (handled via store facades): `addresses`, `shop_settings`, `config_settings` / `config_setting_history`, `telegram_links` / `telegram_sessions`, `reviews`.

### Migration Count

19 migrations landed: **0000 through 0019**.

| Migration | Key change |
|---|---|
| 0000 | Core enums + `id_map` + `categories` |
| 0001 | `trezor_accounts` + `trezor_derived_addresses` |
| 0002 | Schema reset (drops 0000/0001 tables, adds category self-FK) |
| 0003 | Full rebuild: all core domain tables (users, payments, marketplace, funds ledger, derived destinations, points, trezor) |
| 0004 (×2) | Funds ledger immutability trigger; seller_offer physical FKs |
| 0005 | `pg_dualwrite_gaps`; payment FKs; legacy_object_id uniques; pending payment index fix |
| 0006 | budget_currency crypto-only CHECK on purchase_requests |
| 0007 | Drops 0006 constraint; sets USDT default |
| 0008 | `offer_currency` adds TRY; creates `payment_quotes` |
| 0009 | Active category deduplication; `categories_active_name_norm_uq` |
| 0010 | `request_templates`; purchase_request_specifications unique constraint |
| 0011 | `chats` + chat enums |
| 0012 | `disputes` |
| 0013 | Money-integrity CHECK constraints; ledger TRUNCATE guard; id_map composite PK |
| 0014 | Physical NOT VALID FKs across schema; validates all |
| 0015 | Ledger immutability extended: UPDATE + DELETE triggers |
| 0016 | `address_type` enum + `addresses` table |
| 0017 | `guard` value added to `user_role` enum |
| 0018 | AI request fields |
| 0019 | `payment_provider` enum: added `escrow` |

## What Uses Postgres Now

All domains are PostgreSQL-only. The table below summarises the runtime topology for reference.

| Area | Runtime status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Postgres connection | Required — `PG_URL` must be set | Store facades use `src/infrastructure/postgres/client.ts`; the broader `src/db/` Drizzle layer and repository factory are fully populated. |
| Runtime schema bootstrap | Implemented for auth, config, address, and reference stores | Auth tables bootstrapped from `src/services/auth/postgresAuthSchema.ts`; store facades bootstrap their own tables at startup. |
| Health observability | Implemented in `/api/health` | `checks.postgres` reports `configured`, `required`, `storeModes`, `enabledStores`, and `enabledStoreCount`. Mongoose health check is no longer present. |
| Auth-owned user store | PG-backed | Auth, passkey, Telegram auth/link/session/temp-verification, and `/api/user` profile paths use the auth-store facade pointing at Postgres. `legacy_object_id` column retained for id-map compatibility. |
| Confirmation-threshold runtime config | PG-backed | `ConfigSetting` / `ConfigSettingHistory` access routes through the config-store facade. |
| User addresses | PG-backed | `/api/addresses` CRUD uses the address-store facade. |
| Marketplace categories | PG-backed | `CategoryService` and the default `General` category path use the category-store facade. `categories_active_name_norm_uq` enforced. |
| Level configuration | PG-backed | `PointsService` level reads use the level-config facade. `LEVEL_STORE=postgres` accepted as compatibility alias. |
| Shop settings | PG-backed | Shop settings controller, seller payment rail resolution, and review enable/disable checks use the shop-settings facade. Seller shop lookup handles both uuid and legacy id formats. |
| Marketplace reviews | PG-backed | Review list/summary/create routes use the review-store facade. |
| Notifications | PG-backed | `NotificationService` uses `getNotificationRepo()` for create/list/read/delete/count paths. |
| Oracle quote persistence | PG write when `ORACLE_QUOTING_ENABLED=true` | `/api/payment/request-network/intents` writes `payment_quotes` to PG. Mongo mirror path removed. |
| Funds ledger | PG-backed | `appendFundsLedgerEntry` and `getFundsBalanceBy*` call `getPaymentRepo()` which resolves to `DrizzlePaymentRepo`. |
| Payments and escrow state | PG-backed | All payment services use Drizzle repos; Mongoose `Payment` model removed. |
| Derived destinations and sweeps | PG-backed | `getDerivedDestinationRepo()` resolves to `DrizzleDerivedDestinationRepo`. |
| Points/referrals/transactions | PG-backed | `getPointsRepo()` resolves to `DrizzlePointsRepo`. |
| Chat/messages | PG-backed (JSONB shim) | `getChatRepo()` resolves to `DrizzleChatRepo`. Participants/messages are stored as JSONB blobs; normalization into relational child tables is an optional future improvement. |
| Disputes/blog | PG-backed | Both resolve to Drizzle repos. |
| ReleaseHold | PG-backed | `getReleaseHoldRepo()` resolves to `DrizzleReleaseHoldRepo`. |
| Backfill/verify scripts | Available as operator tooling | `MIGRATION_PG_URL` drives all backfill scripts. Not run automatically at startup. |
| Guard user role | PG schema-ready | Migration 0017 adds `guard` to the `user_role` enum. |
| Seeds | Postgres-capable | Seeds in `src/seeds/*` are store-aware and idempotent under `MONGO_CONNECT_MODE=never`. |

## What Was Mongo-Backed (Historical)

All domains are now PostgreSQL-only as of v2.9.12. The following were the remaining Mongo-backed areas prior to the final cutover:

- **User reads** — Auth-owned users were PG-backed for writes but reads remained Mongo-authoritative until the full auth cutover.
- **Marketplace requests/offers/templates reads** — `REPO_MARKETPLACE` defaulted to Mongo; read cutover required smoke coverage.
- **Payments and escrow state reads** — Payment services called Mongoose documents directly for reads until the final payment-domain wiring was completed.
- **Derived destinations and sweeps** — `REPO_DERIVED_DESTINATION` defaulted to Mongo.
- **Points/referrals/transactions** — `REPO_POINTS` defaulted to Mongo.
- **Chat/messages** — `getChatRepo()` defaulted to Mongo; JSONB shim was the Drizzle path. No dual-write wrapper existed.
- **Disputes/blog** — Defaulted to Mongo until `REPO_DISPUTE`/`BLOG_STORE` were flipped.
- **ReleaseHold** — No dual-write wrapper; required explicit flip.

All of the above are now fully PostgreSQL-backed. MongoDB and Mongoose have been removed from the runtime.

## Env Flag Reality

All `*_STORE=mongo` and `REPO_*=mongo` env flags are obsolete — the repository factory only supports `postgres`/`pg` mode. `MONGO_URI` and `MONGO_CONNECT_MODE` have been removed from the runtime.

| Flag | Current meaning |
|---|---|
| `MONGO_URI` | REMOVED — MongoDB has been removed from the runtime. |
| `MONGO_CONNECT_MODE` | REMOVED — MongoDB has been removed from the runtime. |
| `AUTH_STORE` | OBSOLETE — only `postgres` is valid. Setting to `mongo` has no effect. |
| `CONFIG_STORE` | OBSOLETE — only `postgres` is valid. |
| `ADDRESS_STORE` | OBSOLETE — only `postgres` is valid. |
| `CATEGORY_STORE` | OBSOLETE — only `postgres` is valid. |
| `LEVEL_CONFIG_STORE` | OBSOLETE — only `postgres` is valid. `LEVEL_STORE=postgres` accepted as alias. |
| `SHOP_SETTINGS_STORE` | OBSOLETE — only `postgres` is valid. |
| `REVIEW_STORE` | OBSOLETE — only `postgres` is valid. |
| `NOTIFICATION_STORE` / `REPO_NOTIFICATION` | OBSOLETE — only `postgres`/`pg` is valid. |
| `PG_URL` | REQUIRED — PostgreSQL is the sole database. All store facades and repos require this. |
| `MIGRATION_PG_URL` | Used by backfill scripts and migration runbooks; not part of normal request handling. |
| `REPO_PAYMENT` | OBSOLETE — only `postgres` is valid. All payment services use `DrizzlePaymentRepo`. |
| `REPO_MARKETPLACE` | OBSOLETE — only `postgres` is valid. All marketplace writes and reads route through `DrizzleMarketplaceRepo`. |
| `REPO_USER`, `REPO_POINTS`, `REPO_DERIVED_DESTINATION`, `REPO_TREZOR` | OBSOLETE — only `postgres` is valid. All resolve to their respective Drizzle repos. |
| `REPO_DISPUTE` / `DISPUTE_STORE`, `REPO_BLOG` / `BLOG_STORE` | OBSOLETE — only `postgres` is valid. |
| `REPO_CHAT` / `CHAT_STORE` | OBSOLETE — only `postgres` is valid. `DrizzleChatRepo` is the sole chat repo. |
| `REPO_RELEASE_HOLD` / `RELEASE_HOLD_STORE` | OBSOLETE — only `postgres` is valid. |
| `ORACLE_QUOTING_ENABLED` | Enables server-side quote computation and the `payment_quotes` PG write in checkout. |

## What's Next (Post-Migration)

1. **Prod backfill** — If the production instance was running Mongo-backed data before the cutover, a one-time backfill from Mongo to Postgres under a maintenance window is required. Use `MIGRATION_PG_URL` + `MIGRATION_MONGO_URL` with the existing backfill scripts. Validate row counts before switching prod traffic.
2. **Chat normalization** — The `DrizzleChatRepo` currently stores participants and messages as JSONB blobs rather than normalized relational child tables. This is an optional future improvement; it does not block current operation but would enable richer querying and FK integrity on chat data.
3. **`payment_provider` enum `escrow` value** — Confirm migration 0019 has been applied on all target databases (adds `escrow` to the `payment_provider` enum). If not already run, apply it before using escrow-provider payment records.
