# Backend: getUserPoints writes full User document on read when points fields missing
|
|
|
|
**Severity:** low
|
|
**Domain:** Points
|
|
**Labels:** bug, backend, performance
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
`PointsService.ts:202` lazy-initializes `points`, `referralCode`, and `referralStats` fields by calling `user.save()` if they are missing. This means every `GET /points` call for a user without these fields triggers a full document write, risking concurrent update conflicts and inflating write load.
|
|
|
|
## Options
|
|
|
|
1. Initialize these fields at user creation (migration + signup default) so reads never write.
|
|
2. Use a targeted `$set` update instead of full `save` when missing.
|
|
3. Leave lazy init but guard against the referralCode generation loop.
|
|
|
|
## Recommendation
|
|
|
|
Initialize `points`/`referralCode`/`referralStats` at signup (plus a one-time backfill migration) so GETs never trigger writes.
