# Project Directory Structure for 'messaging app'
|
||||
|
||||
This document outlines the standard directory structure for the 'messaging app' project, adhering to the io8Directory Structure Principles. This structure is designed to organize project files, separate codebases, manage agent outputs, and streamline deployment within a base project environment.
|
||||
|
||||
**Project Root: `./` (Current Directory after cloning the base project)**
|
||||
|
||||
The project root (`./`) serves as the base for all project files and directories. When the base project is cloned, this directory becomes the working directory. The existing `.sureai/` folder from the cloned project is recognized and integrated into this structure.
|
||||
|
||||
## Core Directories and Files:

```
|
||||
|
||||
## Directory Details:
|
||||
|
||||
### `.io8project/`
|
||||
This hidden directory (`.io8project/`) holds internal project metadata and state information crucial for the io8 agents. It is created at the root level alongside the cloned project's content.
|
||||
- `.state.json`: Manages the current state and progress of tasks within the workflow.
|
||||
- `project_metadata.json`: Stores general project information, configuration, and settings.
|
||||
|
||||
### `.sureai/`
|
||||
This hidden directory (`.sureai/`) acts as the central hub for all agent-generated documentation, outputs, and uploaded assets. It is expected to already exist within the cloned base project.
|
||||
- `uploads/`: A dedicated subdirectory for assets uploaded by users or other agents, such as diagrams, mockups, or reference documents that inform requirements.
|
||||
- **Hidden Agent Output Files (`.bmad_*.md`, `.analyst_*.md`, etc.)**: These files, prefixed with a dot, contain intermediate outputs, logs, or detailed workings from individual agents. They are not intended for direct user consumption but serve as internal records. This includes this directory structure document itself.
|
||||
- **Visible Documents (`analysis_document.md`, `requirements_document.md`, etc.)**: These Markdown files contain structured documentation generated by specific agents (e.g., Analyst, Architect, PM, SM). They are intended for human readability and collaboration. These will be appended by their respective agents as the project progresses.
|
||||
|
||||
### `backend/`
|
||||
This directory is designated for all server-side logic and components of the messaging application. It will contain:
|
||||
- API endpoints for sending/receiving messages.
|
||||
- User authentication and authorization services.
|
||||
- Database interaction logic for storing messages, user data, etc.
|
||||
- Real-time communication services (e.g., WebSockets for live chat).
|
||||
This directory will be created and populated by the Developer agent if not already present in the base project.
|
||||
|
||||
### `frontend/`
|
||||
This directory is for the client-side code and assets of the messaging application, which will provide the user interface. It will contain:
|
||||
- User interface components for chat rooms, message lists, input fields.
|
||||
- Logic for displaying messages, user presence, notifications.
|
||||
- Client-side routing and state management.
|
||||
- Integration with backend APIs for real-time updates.
|
||||
This directory will be created and populated by the Developer agent if not already present in the base project.
|
||||
|
||||
### Root Level Configuration Files:
|
||||
These files are placed at the project root for easy access and management of the overall application environment. They will be created by the DevOps agent.
|
||||
- `deployment_config.yml`: High-level configuration for deployment environments (e.g., staging, production).
|
||||
- `Dockerfile.backend`: Defines how to build the backend Docker image.
|
||||
- `Dockerfile.frontend`: Defines how to build the frontend Docker image.
|
||||
- `docker-compose.yml`: Orchestrates the multi-container messaging application, defining services like the backend, frontend, database, and potentially other services like Nginx or a message broker.
|
||||
|
||||
This structured approach ensures clarity, maintainability, and efficient collaboration throughout the development lifecycle of the 'messaging app'.

||||
|

|
||||
|
||||
# Architecture Document Update: Messaging App
|
||||
Generated: 2025-10-10T[timestamp]
|
||||
|
||||
## System Overview
|
||||
The Messaging App extends the existing Angular Clarity Boilerplate frontend with a new, dedicated backend. The architecture is a **Client-Server model** with a robust **Real-time Communication Layer**. The Angular frontend provides the user interface for authentication, user management, and interactive chat. The backend, composed of several specialized services, handles business logic, data persistence, and real-time message exchange via WebSockets. This separation ensures scalability, maintainability, and allows independent evolution of frontend and backend components. The system prioritizes low-latency message delivery, secure communication, and horizontal scalability to accommodate a growing user base, as derived from `analysis_document.md` and `requirements_document.md`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Architecture Pattern
|
||||
The core architecture pattern for the Messaging App is a **Hybrid Client-Server / Layered Architecture** with a strong emphasis on a **Publish-Subscribe (Pub/Sub) pattern** for real-time messaging:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Client-Server:** The Angular frontend acts as the client, communicating with the backend API servers.
|
||||
2. **Layered Backend:** The backend is designed with distinct layers:
|
||||
* **Presentation/API Gateway:** Handles incoming HTTP/WebSocket requests, routing, and potentially authentication pre-checks.
|
||||
* **Application Services:** Implements core business logic for user management, conversations, and messages.
|
||||
* **Real-time Communication Layer:** Dedicated WebSocket server(s) manage persistent connections and message broadcasting.
|
||||
* **Data Access Layer:** Interfaces with the database for CRUD operations.
|
||||
3. **Publish-Subscribe (for Real-time):** A message broker (e.g., Redis Pub/Sub) will be used to facilitate real-time message exchange between backend services (e.g., a message service publishing new messages, and multiple WebSocket servers subscribing to these messages to fan-out to connected clients). This pattern is crucial for horizontal scaling of WebSocket servers, addressing NFR-003 (Scalability) from `requirements_document.md`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Component Design
|
||||
The system is composed of the following key components, aligning with `analysis_document.md`'s architectural components and `requirements_document.md`'s data and interface requirements:
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Frontend (Angular Clarity Application)
|
||||
* **Purpose:** User interface for interaction, leveraging the existing Angular Clarity boilerplate.
|
||||
* **Modules:**
|
||||
* `AuthModule`: Handles user registration, login, and session management (communicates with Backend Auth Service).
|
||||
* `UserModule`: Manages user profiles, search, and presence display (communicates with Backend User Service).
|
||||
* `ChatModule`: Core messaging functionality, including conversation list, chat window, message input, and real-time message display. (Communicates with Backend Conversation, Message, and WebSocket Services).
|
||||
* `CoreModule` & `SharedModule`: As per boilerplate, for singleton services (e.g., HTTP interceptors, WebSocket client) and reusable UI components.
|
||||
* **Key Features:** Responsive UI (NFR-007), Real-time message rendering, User presence display.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Backend Services
|
||||
Designed as a set of loosely coupled services, potentially evolving into microservices, to manage core functionalities.
|
||||
|
||||
* **2.1. Authentication Service (REST API):**
|
||||
* **Purpose:** Manages user authentication and authorization (FR-001, FR-002, NFR-003, NFR-004).
|
||||
* **Responsibilities:** User registration, login, JWT token issuance, validation, and refresh. Password hashing.
|
||||
* **Interaction:** Exposes REST endpoints (`POST /api/auth/register`, `POST /api/auth/login`) as per `requirements_document.md`.
|
||||
|
||||
* **2.2. User Service (REST API):**
|
||||
* **Purpose:** Manages user profiles and provides user search capabilities (FR-003, FR-005).
|
||||
* **Responsibilities:** Store and retrieve user profile information, handle profile updates, provide search functionality for other users.
|
||||
* **Interaction:** Exposes REST endpoints (`GET /api/users/me`, `PUT /api/users/me`, `GET /api/users/search`).
|
||||
|
||||
* **2.3. Conversation Service (REST API):**
|
||||
* **Purpose:** Manages the creation and retrieval of 1:1 and group conversations (FR-009).
|
||||
* **Responsibilities:** Create new conversations, manage participants (FR-010), retrieve lists of conversations a user is part of.
|
||||
* **Interaction:** Exposes REST endpoints (`GET /api/conversations`, `POST /api/conversations/one-to-one`, `POST /api/conversations/group`).
|
||||
|
||||
* **2.4. Message Service (Internal & REST API):**
|
||||
* **Purpose:** Persists messages and retrieves chat history (FR-008).
|
||||
* **Responsibilities:** Store incoming messages from the WebSocket Service, retrieve paginated message history for conversations.
|
||||
* **Interaction:** Exposes REST endpoint (`GET /api/conversations/{id}/messages`) for history, and an internal API for the WebSocket Service to persist new messages.
|
||||
|
||||
* **2.5. Real-time WebSocket Service:**
|
||||
* **Purpose:** Manages persistent WebSocket connections, handles real-time message delivery, and user presence updates (FR-006, FR-007, FR-009, NFR-001, NFR-007).
|
||||
* **Responsibilities:** Authenticate WebSocket connections using JWT, receive messages from clients, persist them via Message Service, broadcast messages to relevant recipients, manage user online/offline status, propagate status updates via Redis Pub/Sub.
|
||||
* **Interaction:** Exposes a WSS endpoint (`wss://api.yourdomain.com/ws/chat`), integrates with Redis for Pub/Sub and presence, and with Message Service for persistence.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Database
|
||||
* **Purpose:** Persistent storage for all application data, adhering to `requirements_document.md`'s Data Requirements.
|
||||
* **Key Entities:** `User`, `Conversation`, `ConversationParticipant`, `Message` (as defined in `requirements_document.md`).
|
||||
* **Relationships:** One-to-many and many-to-many relationships modeled for users, conversations, and messages.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Caching / Message Broker (Redis)
|
||||
* **Purpose:** Enhances real-time performance, manages presence, and facilitates inter-service communication for WebSockets.
|
||||
* **Responsibilities:** Store user presence status (online/offline), act as a Pub/Sub broker for real-time message distribution across multiple WebSocket service instances, potentially caching frequently accessed data (e.g., user profiles).
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Object Storage (e.g., AWS S3 - for Phase 2 Media Sharing)
|
||||
* **Purpose:** Store media files (images, documents) for sharing (FR-017, FR-018).
|
||||
* **Responsibilities:** Provides scalable and secure storage for user-uploaded content. The Message Service will store references (URLs) to these objects.
|
||||
|
||||
## Data Flow
|
||||
|
||||
1. **User Authentication & Profile Management:**
|
||||
* Frontend (Angular) sends `POST /api/auth/register` or `POST /api/auth/login` to Backend Auth Service.
|
||||
* Auth Service interacts with Database to create/verify user credentials. Issues JWT.
|
||||
* Frontend uses JWT for subsequent requests to Backend User Service (e.g., `GET /api/users/me`, `PUT /api/users/me`), which then interacts with Database.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Real-time Messaging (1:1 & Group Chat):**
|
||||
* After authentication, Frontend (Angular) establishes a secure WebSocket connection (`wss://api.yourdomain.com/ws/chat`) to the Backend WebSocket Service, providing JWT for authorization.
|
||||
* **Sending a Message:** Frontend sends `send_message` event over WebSocket to Backend WebSocket Service. WebSocket Service persists message via Message Service (to Database). WebSocket Service then publishes the new message to a Redis Pub/Sub channel.
|
||||
* **Receiving a Message:** Other instances of Backend WebSocket Service (subscribed to Redis Pub/Sub) receive the published message. They identify relevant connected clients and fan out the `new_message` event over their respective WebSockets to the recipients' Frontends.
|
||||
* **Message History:** Frontend retrieves older messages via `GET /api/conversations/{id}/messages` from Backend Message Service (REST API), which queries the Database.
|
||||
|
||||
3. **User Presence:**
|
||||
* Frontend sends `user_online`/`user_offline` events (or inferred from WebSocket connection status) to Backend WebSocket Service.
|
||||
* WebSocket Service updates user status in Redis (for fast retrieval across instances) and potentially Database.
|
||||
* Status changes are published via Redis Pub/Sub to inform other connected users.
|
||||
|
||||
## API Design
|
||||
As detailed in `requirements_document.md` (Interface Requirements):
|
||||
|
||||
* **RESTful API:** For stateless operations such as user registration, login, profile management, and fetching historical data (user lists, chat history).
|
||||
* Endpoints like `/api/auth/register`, `/api/auth/login`, `/api/users/me`, `/api/conversations`, `/api/conversations/{id}/messages` will be implemented.
|
||||
* Communication will be JSON over HTTPS.
|
||||
* **WebSocket API:** For real-time, bidirectional communication.
|
||||
* A single `wss://api.yourdomain.com/ws/chat` endpoint will be used.
|
||||
* Events like `send_message`, `new_message`, `user_status_update`, `typing_indicator` will be exchanged.
|
||||
* Payloads will be JSON.
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Architecture
|
||||
Addressing NFR-002 (Security) from `requirements_document.md`:
|
||||
|
||||
* **Authentication:**
|
||||
* **JWT (JSON Web Tokens):** Used for authenticating REST API requests and authorizing WebSocket connections. Tokens will have short lifespans with a refresh token mechanism.
|
||||
* **Password Hashing:** User passwords will be hashed and salted using strong, industry-standard algorithms (e.g., bcrypt) before storage in the database.
|
||||
* **Authorization:**
|
||||
* **Role-Based Access Control (RBAC):** Implemented at the backend for sensitive actions (e.g., group administration (FR-011), accessing message history (NFR-004)).
|
||||
* **Scope-Based Authorization:** JWTs will contain claims to define the scope of a user's access.
|
||||
* **Data Encryption:**
|
||||
* **In-transit:** All HTTP and WebSocket communication will be encrypted using **TLS/SSL (HTTPS/WSS)** (NFR-005).
|
||||
* **At-rest:** Database encryption and secure storage practices will be applied, especially for media files (if applicable, using encrypted storage services).
|
||||
* **Input Validation:** Comprehensive input validation will be implemented on all backend API endpoints to prevent common vulnerabilities such as XSS, SQL injection, and buffer overflows (NFR-002).
|
||||
* **Session Management:** Secure session management for JWTs, including proper storage (e.g., HttpOnly cookies) and invalidation on logout.
|
||||
|
||||
## Scalability Considerations
|
||||
Addressing NFR-003 (Scalability) from `requirements_document.md`:
|
||||
|
||||
* **Horizontal Scaling:**
|
||||
* **Stateless Services:** Backend API services will be designed as stateless entities, allowing them to be horizontally scaled by adding more instances behind a load balancer.
|
||||
* **WebSocket Service Scaling:** Multiple instances of the WebSocket Service can run concurrently. Redis Pub/Sub acts as a backbone to distribute messages across these instances, ensuring all clients receive messages regardless of which WebSocket server they are connected to.
|
||||
* **Load Balancing:** A load balancer (e.g., Nginx, or cloud-native solutions) will distribute incoming HTTP and WebSocket traffic across multiple backend service instances.
|
||||
* **Database Scalability:**
|
||||
* **Read Replicas:** PostgreSQL can be configured with read replicas to offload read-heavy operations (e.g., fetching chat history) from the primary database instance.
|
||||
* **Connection Pooling:** Efficient database connection pooling will be used by backend services to manage database load.
|
||||
* **Sharding (Future):** For extremely high message volumes, message data might be sharded across multiple database instances based on conversation ID or user ID.
|
||||
* **Caching:** Redis will be used for caching frequently accessed data (e.g., user profiles, online status) to reduce database load and improve response times.
|
||||
* **Asynchronous Processing:** Backend operations, especially for media sharing (Phase 2), will leverage asynchronous processing to avoid blocking the main request/response cycle, potentially using background task queues (e.g., Celery with Redis).

|
||||
* Comprehensive documentation for deployment and maintenance.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Core Modules & Components
|
||||
|
||||
* **Frontend (Leveraging `messaging_app_base_cloned/` Angular Clarity):**
|
||||
* **UI Components:** `messaging_app_base_cloned/frontend/src/components/` (ChatWindow, MessageInput, UserList, ProfileCard, NotificationBanner).
|
||||
* **Pages/Views:** `messaging_app_base_cloned/frontend/src/pages/` (LoginPage, RegisterPage, ChatPage, SettingsPage).
|
||||
* **Services:** API client, WebSocket connection logic, State management (e.g., NGRX or RxJS based services).
|
||||
* **Routing:** Frontend routing definitions (`messaging_app_base_cloned/frontend/src/routes/`).
|
||||
|
||||
* **Backend (New - `backend/` directory):**
|
||||
* **Authentication Service:** User registration, login, token generation (e.g., JWT).
|
||||
* **User Service:** User profiles, status management (online/offline).
|
||||
* **Chat Service:** Message sending, retrieval, chat room management.
|
||||
* **Real-time Service:** WebSocket server for live message exchange.
|
||||
* **Database Integration:** ORM/ODM for interacting with message and user data stores.
|
||||
|
||||
* **Database (New - external service, configured via `backend/config/`):**
|
||||
* **User Store:** User authentication details, profile information.
|
||||
* **Message Store:** Message content, timestamps, sender/receiver, chat room IDs.
|
||||
* **Chat Room Store:** Group chat metadata, member lists.
|
||||
|
||||
* **DevOps & Infrastructure (`deployment_config.yml`, Dockerfiles, `docker-compose.yml`, `nginx.conf`):**
|
||||
* **Containerization:** Dockerfiles for `backend/` and `frontend/`.
|
||||
* **Orchestration:** `docker-compose.yml` for multi-container local development and staging.
|
||||
* **CI/CD:** Pipelines for automated builds, tests, and deployments.
|
||||
* **Reverse Proxy:** Nginx configuration for serving frontend, routing API calls, and WebSocket proxying.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Constraints & Considerations
|
||||
|
||||
* **Base Project Preservation:** The `messaging_app_base_cloned/` Angular Clarity boilerplate must be extended and integrated, not replaced. Core boilerplate functionalities should remain intact where possible.
|
||||
* **Append-Only Principle:** All agent-generated documents within `messaging_app_base_cloned/.sureai/` must be appended to, never overwritten.
|
||||
* **Real-time Requirement:** All core messaging functionalities (send/receive) must operate in real-time.
|
||||
* **Security:** Implement robust authentication, authorization, and data encryption. Adhere to OWASP best practices.
|
||||
* **Scalability:** The architecture must be designed with future scalability in mind, capable of handling a growing number of concurrent users and messages.
|
||||
* **Performance:** Optimize for low latency in message delivery and efficient resource usage.
|
||||
* **Technology Stack:** Preference for open-source, widely supported technologies. Specific recommendations to be provided by io8architect.
|
||||
* **Compliance:** Consider data privacy regulations if applicable.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||

# io8 Project Builder Plan for messaging_app_20251010_040350
|
||||
|
||||
## High-level Scaffolding Plan
|
||||
|
||||
**Backend:**
|
||||
- A RESTful API will be implemented to handle messaging functionalities (sending, receiving, storing messages).
|
||||
- Core entities: User, Message, Conversation.
|
||||
- Technologies will be determined from `.sureai/architecture_document.md` or default to Spring Boot.
|
||||
|
||||
**Frontend:**
|
||||
- A web-based user interface for sending and receiving messages.
|
||||
- Real-time communication features (e.g., using WebSockets if supported by the chosen backend framework).
|
||||
- User authentication and authorization.
|
||||
- Technologies will be determined from `.sureai/architecture_document.md` or default to Angular Clarity.
|
||||
|
||||
## Directory and File Scaffolding Strategy
|
||||
|
||||
The project will follow a standard directory structure for the chosen backend and frontend frameworks.
|
||||
|
||||
**Backend (e.g., Spring Boot):**
|
||||
- `src/main/java/com/example/messagingapp/`: Main application code.
|
||||
- `controller/`: REST API endpoints.
|
||||
- `service/`: Business logic.
|
||||
- `repository/`: Data access layer.
|
||||
- `model/`: Data models (entities, DTOs).
|
||||
- `src/main/resources/`: Configuration files, static assets.
|
||||
- `src/test/`: Unit and integration tests.
|
||||
|
||||
**Frontend (e.g., Angular Clarity):**
|
||||
- `src/app/`: Main application components.
|
||||
- `components/`: Reusable UI components.
|
||||
- `services/`: Data fetching and business logic.
|
||||
- `models/`: Data models.
|
||||
- `pages/`: Route-specific components.
|
||||
- `src/assets/`: Static assets (images, icons).
|
||||
- `src/environments/`: Environment-specific configurations.
|
||||
|
||||
## Build Tools and Scripts
|
||||
|
||||
- **Backend:** Maven or Gradle (for Spring Boot) for dependency management and building JAR/WAR files.
|
||||
- **Frontend:** npm or yarn for dependency management, Angular CLI for building and serving the application.
|
||||
- **io8 MCP:** Used for initial project creation, application building, and wireframe generation.
|
||||
|
||||
## Pre-developer Checks
|
||||
|
||||
Before development begins, the following checks will be performed:
|
||||
- Ensure `.sureai/architecture_document.md` exists and is up-to-date for technology selection.
|
||||
- Verify that `.sureai/io8_mcp/responses/create_project.out` contains valid project IDs.
|
||||
- Confirm successful `git pull` of the generated project code.
|
||||

# Messaging App Project Directory Structure Documentation
|
||||
|
||||
This document outlines the expected directory and file organization for the 'Messaging App' project, building upon a cloned base project and strictly adhering to the io8Directory Structure Principles. As a base project has been detected, this documentation focuses on detailing the structure and its purpose within the context of a messaging application, without creating or modifying any existing files or directories.
|
||||
|
||||
## Core Project Structure for a Messaging App
|
||||
|
||||
The following structure integrates the needs of a messaging application within the mandatory io8 framework:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Project Root (`./`)**:
|
||||
- **`.io8project/`**: This directory is reserved for internal agent state persistence and project metadata.
|
||||
- `.state.json`: Maintains the current task state for agents.
|
||||
- `project_metadata.json`: Stores high-level project information and configurations.
|
||||
- **`cloned base project/`**: This directory represents the initial codebase cloned for the messaging app. It is the primary location for project-specific files and documentation.
|
||||
- **`.sureai/`**: The central repository for all agent outputs, project-specific documents, and uploaded content.
|
||||
- `uploads/`: A subdirectory dedicated to storing uploaded documents, images, and other assets used by agents, such as the requirement builder.
|
||||
- **Agent Output Files (Hidden - prefixed with `.` and dynamically generated by specific agents)**:
|
||||
- `.directory_structure_agent_messaging_app_messaging_app_20251010_040350.md`: This file, detailing the specific directory structure methodology for the 'messaging app' project, to guide subsequent agents.
|
||||
- `.directory_structure_messaging_app_20251010_040350.md`: This document, where this content is appended, provides an evolving record of the project's directory structure.
|
||||
- `.bmad_agent_messaging_app_20251010_040350.md`: Input prompt for the Business Model & Architecture Designer agent.
|
||||
- `.analyst_agent_messaging_app_20251010_040350.md`: Input prompt for the Analyst agent.
|
||||
- `.architect_agent_messaging_app_20251010_040350.md`: Input prompt for the Architect agent.
|
||||
- `.pm_agent_messaging_app_20251010_040350.md`: Input prompt for the Project Manager agent.
|
||||
- `.sm_agent_messaging_app_20251010_040350.md`: Input prompt for the Scrum Master agent.
|
||||
- `.developer_agent_messaging_app_20251010_040350.md`: Input prompt for the Developer agent.
|
||||
- `.devops_agent_messaging_app_20251010_040350.md`: Input prompt for the DevOps agent.
|
||||
- `.bmad_*.md`: General outputs from the BMAD agent (e.g., business model canvas, value proposition).
|
||||
- `.analyst_*.md`: General outputs from the Analyst agent (e.g., user stories, use cases).
|
||||
- `.architect_*.md`: General outputs from the Architect agent (e.g., system design, component diagrams).
|
||||
- `.developer_*.md`: General outputs from the Developer agent (e.g., code snippets, technical designs).
|
||||
- `.devops_*.md`: General outputs from the DevOps agent (e.g., CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code).
|
||||
- `.pm_*.md`: General outputs from the PM agent (e.g., project milestones, risk assessments).
|
||||
- **Visible Project Documents (No dot prefix - created by their respective agents)**:
|
||||
- `analysis_document.md`: Comprehensive analysis of the messaging app requirements and scope (by Analyst).
|
||||
- `requirements_document.md`: Detailed functional and non-functional requirements for the messaging app (by Analyst).
|
||||

|
||||
- `sprint_plan.md`: Plan for current and upcoming sprints (by SM).
|
||||
- *Additional files and directories specific to the pre-existing base project codebase will reside here.*
|
||||
|
||||
- **`backend/`**: (Anticipated to be created by the Developer/DevOps agents if not present in the base project) This directory will house all server-side code and services critical for the messaging app's functionality. For a messaging app, this typically includes:
|
||||
- `auth/`: User authentication and authorization services.
|
||||
- `chat/`: Core message handling, storage, and retrieval logic.
|
||||
- `users/`: User profile management and presence services.
|
||||
- `notifications/`: Real-time notification handling (e.g., push notifications).
|
||||
- `realtime/`: WebSocket or other real-time communication protocol implementations.
|
||||
- `api/`: API definitions and controllers.
|
||||
- `utils/`: Shared backend utilities and helper functions.
|
||||
- `tests/`: Unit and integration tests for backend services.
|
||||
|
||||
- **`frontend/`**: (Anticipated to be created by the Developer/DevOps agents if not present in the base project) This directory will contain all client-side application code for the messaging app's user interface.
|
||||
- `components/`: Reusable UI components (e.g., `MessageInput`, `UserAvatar`, `ChatBubble`).
|
||||
- `pages/` or `views/`: Distinct screens or views (e.g., `ChatRoom`, `UserProfile`, `Login`, `Settings`).
|
||||
- `services/` or `api/`: Client-side modules for interacting with the backend APIs.
|
||||
- `store/`: State management (e.g., Redux, Vuex, Zustand) for the application's global state.
|
||||
- `assets/`: Static assets such as images, icons, and fonts.
|
||||
- `styles/`: Global styles, themes, and component-specific CSS/Sass files.
|
||||
- `utils/`: Frontend utility functions.
|
||||
- `tests/`: Unit and end-to-end tests for the frontend application.
|
||||
- `public/`: Static files to be served directly (e.g., `index.html`, `manifest.json`).
|
||||
|
||||
- **`deployment_config.yml`**: (Anticipated to be created by DevOps agent) Root-level configuration file detailing deployment strategies and environment variables.
|
||||
- **`Dockerfile.backend`**: (Anticipated to be created by DevOps agent) Docker build instructions specifically for the backend services of the messaging app.
|
||||
- **`Dockerfile.frontend`**: (Anticipated to be created by DevOps agent) Docker build instructions specifically for the frontend application of the messaging app.
|
||||
- **`docker-compose.yml`**: (Anticipated to be created by DevOps agent) Defines and runs multi-container Docker applications (backend, frontend, database, message queues, etc.) for local development and testing.
|
||||
|
||||
## Adherence to Directory Structure Principles
|
||||
|
||||
This documented structure consistently upholds the core principles:
|
||||
- **Strict Structure Adherence**: The layout strictly follows the mandatory template, adapted for a messaging app.
|
||||
- **Hidden Agent Outputs**: All internal agent-generated files are prefixed with a dot (`.`) and centrally located within `cloned base project/.sureai/`.
|
||||
- **Visible Documents**: Key project documentation (analysis, requirements, architecture, etc.) is stored without a dot prefix in `cloned base project/.sureai/` for easy access.
|
||||
- **Code Separation**: `backend/` and `frontend/` directories are clearly defined at the project root level to separate server-side logic from client-side presentation.
|
||||
- **Root Level Files**: Essential configuration files like Dockerfiles and `docker-compose.yml` are placed at the project root for centralized management.
|
||||
|
||||
## Important Note for Base Projects
|
||||
|
||||
As this agent is operating on a *cloned base project*, it **does not create any directories or files** (e.g., `backend/`, `frontend/`, `Dockerfile`s, or the visible `.md` documents) beyond documenting the structure and providing agent-specific prompt files within `cloned base project/.sureai/`. The actual creation of these components will be handled by subsequent specialized agents (e.g., Developer, DevOps) as the project workflow progresses, ensuring that the defined structure is progressively realized and maintained.

# Project Directory Structure for 'messaging app'
|
||||
|
||||
This document outlines the standard directory structure for the 'messaging app' project, adhering to the io8Directory Structure Principles. This structure is designed to organize project files, separate codebases, manage agent outputs, and streamline deployment within a base project environment.
|
||||
|
||||
**Project Root: `./` (Current Directory after cloning the base project)**
|
||||
|
||||
The project root (`./`) serves as the base for all project files and directories. When the base project is cloned, this directory becomes the working directory. The existing `.sureai/` folder from the cloned project is recognized and integrated into this structure.
|
||||
|
||||

## Directory Details:
|
||||
|
||||
### `.io8project/`
|
||||
This hidden directory (`.io8project/`) holds internal project metadata and state information crucial for the io8 agents. It is created at the root level alongside the cloned project's content.
|
||||
- `.state.json`: Manages the current state and progress of tasks within the workflow.
|
||||
- `project_metadata.json`: Stores general project information, configuration, and settings.
|
||||
|
||||
### `.sureai/`
|
||||
This hidden directory (`.sureai/`) acts as the central hub for all agent-generated documentation, outputs, and uploaded assets. It is expected to already exist within the cloned base project.
|
||||
- `uploads/`: A dedicated subdirectory for assets uploaded by users or other agents, such as diagrams, mockups, or reference documents that inform requirements.
|
||||
- **Hidden Agent Output Files (`.bmad_*.md`, `.analyst_*.md`, etc.)**: These files, prefixed with a dot, contain intermediate outputs, logs, or detailed workings from individual agents. They are not intended for direct user consumption but serve as internal records. This includes this directory structure document itself.
|
||||
- **Visible Documents (`analysis_document.md`, `requirements_document.md`, etc.)**: These Markdown files contain structured documentation generated by specific agents (e.g., Analyst, Architect, PM, SM). They are intended for human readability and collaboration. These will be appended by their respective agents as the project progresses.
|
||||
|
||||
### `backend/`
|
||||
This directory is designated for all server-side logic and components of the messaging application. It will contain:
|
||||
- API endpoints for sending/receiving messages.
|
||||
- User authentication and authorization services.
|
||||
- Database interaction logic for storing messages, user data, etc.
|
||||
- Real-time communication services (e.g., WebSockets for live chat).
|
||||
This directory will be created and populated by the Developer agent if not already present in the base project.
|
||||
|
||||
### `frontend/`
|
||||
This directory is for the client-side code and assets of the messaging application, which will provide the user interface. It will contain:
|
||||
- User interface components for chat rooms, message lists, input fields.
|
||||
- Logic for displaying messages, user presence, notifications.
|
||||
- Client-side routing and state management.
|
||||
- Integration with backend APIs for real-time updates.
|
||||
This directory will be created and populated by the Developer agent if not already present in the base project.
|
||||
|
||||
### Root Level Configuration Files:
|
||||
These files are placed at the project root for easy access and management of the overall application environment. They will be created by the DevOps agent.
|
||||
- `deployment_config.yml`: High-level configuration for deployment environments (e.g., staging, production).
|
||||
- `Dockerfile.backend`: Defines how to build the backend Docker image.
|
||||
- `Dockerfile.frontend`: Defines how to build the frontend Docker image.
|
||||
- `docker-compose.yml`: Orchestrates the multi-container messaging application, defining services like the backend, frontend, database, and potentially other services like Nginx or a message broker.
|
||||
|
||||
This structured approach ensures clarity, maintainability, and efficient collaboration throughout the development lifecycle of the 'messaging app'.

# Architecture Document
|
||||
Generated: 2025-10-10T04:04:10.080488
|
||||
|
||||
## System Overview - 2025-10-10T04:04:10.080488
|
||||
The Messaging App will operate as a distributed system, comprising a single-page application (SPA) frontend and a set of backend microservices. The frontend, built on the existing Angular Clarity boilerplate, will provide the user interface and interact with the backend services through both RESTful APIs for data management (e.g., user profiles, message history) and WebSocket connections for real-time communication (e.g., instant message delivery, user presence updates). The backend will handle user authentication, user management, real-time chat logic, message persistence, and potential future features like group chats and media sharing. This architecture ensures high availability, scalability, and responsiveness essential for a modern messaging platform, as per `analysis_document.md` and `requirements_document.md`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Architecture Pattern - 2025-10-10T04:04:10.080488
|
||||
|
||||
**Frontend:** The frontend will maintain its **Single-Page Application (SPA)** pattern using Angular and the Clarity Design System. It will consume data and real-time events from the backend.
|
||||
|
||||
**Backend:** A **Microservices Architecture** pattern will be adopted for the backend to address the scalability and modularity requirements of a real-time messaging application (`NFR-006`). This allows different functionalities (authentication, chat, user management) to be developed, deployed, and scaled independently. An **Event-Driven Architecture** will complement the microservices, leveraging a message broker for asynchronous communication between services and handling high-throughput real-time events. A dedicated **WebSocket Gateway** will abstract real-time complexity and provide a unified entry point for persistent client connections.
|
||||
|
||||
**Justification:**
|
||||
- **Scalability:** Microservices allow individual components, such as the Chat Service or WebSocket Gateway, to be scaled independently based on load, which is critical for handling a growing number of concurrent users and messages (`NFR-002`).
|
||||
- **Resilience:** Failure in one service (e.g., User Profile) does not necessarily bring down the entire messaging system.
|
||||
- **Maintainability:** Clear separation of concerns makes the codebase easier to understand, develop, and test.
|
||||
- **Real-time Capabilities:** The WebSocket Gateway and event-driven communication are specifically designed for low-latency message delivery (`NFR-001`).
|
||||
|
||||
## Component Design - 2025-10-10T04:04:10.080488
|
||||
|
||||
The system will consist of the following key components:
|
||||
|
||||
### Frontend (Angular Clarity SPA)
|
||||
- **Purpose:** User Interface, user interaction, data display, and real-time event handling.
|
||||
- **Modules:** Extends the existing `CoreModule`, `SharedModule`, and introduces feature modules for `Auth`, `Chat`, `User Profile`, etc., as per the base boilerplate's modularity (`FR-002` from base `requirements_document.md`).
|
||||
- **Communication:** Utilizes Angular `HttpClient` for REST API calls and a custom WebSocket service for real-time data exchange.
|
||||
|
||||
### Backend Microservices
|
||||
1. **API Gateway:**
|
||||
- **Purpose:** Single entry point for all client REST requests. Routes requests to appropriate backend services, handles authentication token validation (`NFR-003`).
|
||||
- **Responsibilities:** Request routing, load balancing, SSL termination (`NFR-005`).
|
||||
2. **Authentication Service:**
|
||||
- **Purpose:** Handles user registration, login, token generation (JWT), and token validation (`FR-001`, `FR-002`).
|
||||
- **Responsibilities:** Stores user credentials securely, issues and validates JWTs (`NFR-003`).
|
||||
3. **User Service:**
|
||||
- **Purpose:** Manages user profiles, user search, and presence status (`FR-003`, `FR-004`, `FR-005`).
|
||||
- **Responsibilities:** Stores user details, updates online/offline status, publishes status changes to the WebSocket Gateway/Message Broker.
|
||||
4. **Chat Service:**
|
||||
- **Purpose:** Manages conversations (1:1 and group), message persistence, and message retrieval (`FR-006`, `FR-008`, `FR-010`, `FR-014`, `NFR-008`).
|
||||
- **Responsibilities:** Stores message content, conversation metadata, and participant information. Handles message history pagination.
|
||||
5. **WebSocket Gateway:**
|
||||
- **Purpose:** Manages persistent WebSocket connections with clients. Routes real-time messages and events to/from clients and the Chat/User/Notification services (`FR-009`).
|
||||
- **Responsibilities:** Handles WebSocket handshake, connection management, user presence tracking, message broadcasting, and pushing notifications.
|
||||
6. **Notification Service (Future):**
|
||||
- **Purpose:** Generates and delivers real-time notifications for new messages or events (`FR-015`, `FR-016`).
|
||||
- **Responsibilities:** Subscribes to message broker events and pushes notifications via WebSocket Gateway or other channels.
|
||||
7. **File Storage Service (Future):**
|
||||
- **Purpose:** Handles secure upload, storage, and retrieval of media files shared in chats (`FR-017`, `FR-018`).
|
||||
- **Responsibilities:** Integrates with an object storage solution (e.g., S3-compatible).
|
||||
|
||||
### Infrastructure Components
|
||||
- **Database:** Primary data store for users, conversations, and messages.
|
||||
- **Cache/Real-time Store:** In-memory data store for user presence, session data, and pub/sub capabilities.
|
||||
- **Message Broker:** Facilitates asynchronous, reliable communication between backend services (e.g., message persistence acknowledgements, notification triggers, presence updates).
|
||||
|
||||
## Data Architecture - 2025-10-10T04:04:10.080488
|
||||
|
||||
### Database Design
|
||||
Based on `requirements_document.md` Data Requirements:
|
||||
- **Primary Database:** A relational database (e.g., PostgreSQL) will store structured data for users, conversations, participants, and messages. This choice provides strong consistency, ACID properties, and flexibility for complex queries needed for chat history and user management.
|
||||
- **User Table:** `id`, `username`, `email`, `password_hash`, `profile_picture_url`, `status`, `created_at`, `updated_at`.
|
||||
- **Conversation Table:** `id`, `type` (one_to_one/group), `name` (for group), `created_at`, `updated_at`.
|
||||
- **ConversationParticipant Table (Join Table):** `conversation_id`, `user_id`, `role` (member/admin), `joined_at`, `last_read_message_id`, `is_active`.
|
||||
- **Message Table:** `id`, `conversation_id`, `sender_id`, `content`, `type`, `attachment_url`, `sent_at`, `edited_at`, `deleted_at`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Data Flow
|
||||
1. **User Authentication:** Frontend sends login credentials to API Gateway -> Authentication Service -> verifies against database. Returns JWT to frontend.
|
||||
2. **User/Conversation Management (REST):** Frontend sends HTTP requests (e.g., `GET /api/users/me`, `POST /api/conversations`) to API Gateway -> routed to User Service or Chat Service -> interacts with Primary Database. Responses returned to frontend.
|
||||
3. **Sending Real-time Messages (WebSocket):** Frontend sends `send_message` event via WebSocket Gateway -> Chat Service receives event -> persists message in Primary Database -> Chat Service publishes `new_message` event to Message Broker -> WebSocket Gateway subscribes to Message Broker and broadcasts `new_message` to relevant clients (`FR-009`).
|
||||
4. **Receiving Real-time Messages (WebSocket):** WebSocket Gateway receives `new_message` event from Message Broker -> pushes to subscribed clients.
|
||||
5. **Presence Updates (WebSocket/Cache):** User Service updates `status` in Primary Database and `Cache/Real-time Store`. User Service or WebSocket Gateway publishes `user_status_update` event to Message Broker for broadcasting.
|
||||
6. **Media Sharing (Future):** Frontend uploads file to File Storage Service (via API Gateway) -> File Storage Service saves to Object Storage and returns `attachment_url` -> `send_message` event then includes this URL.
|
||||
|
||||
## API Design - 2025-10-10T04:04:10.080488
|
||||
|
||||
Based on `requirements_document.md` Interface Requirements:
|
||||
|
||||
### RESTful API (HTTP/HTTPS)
|
||||
- **Base URL:** `/api/v1`
|
||||
- **Authentication Endpoints (`/api/v1/auth`):**
|
||||
- `POST /register`: User registration (`FR-001`).
|
||||
- `POST /login`: User login, returns JWT (`FR-002`).
|
||||
- **User Endpoints (`/api/v1/users`):**
|
||||
- `GET /me`: Retrieve current user profile (`FR-003`).
|
||||
- `PUT /me`: Update current user profile (`FR-003`).
|
||||
- `GET /search?query=...`: Search for users (`FR-005`).
|
||||
- `GET /{userId}/status`: Get specific user's online status (or included in user profile).
|
||||
- **Conversation Endpoints (`/api/v1/conversations`):**
|
||||
- `GET /`: Retrieve list of user's conversations (`FR-008` for list context).
|
||||
- `POST /one-to-one`: Create a 1:1 conversation (`FR-006` context).
|
||||
- `POST /group`: Create a group conversation (`FR-010`).
|
||||
- `GET /{conversationId}/messages?limit=...&offset=...`: Retrieve paginated messages for a conversation (`FR-008`, `FR-014`).
|
||||
- `POST /{conversationId}/members`: Add members to a group chat (Admin only, `FR-011`).
|
||||
- `DELETE /{conversationId}/members/{userId}`: Remove member from group chat (Admin only, `FR-011`).
|
||||
|
||||
### WebSocket API (WSS)
|
||||
- **Endpoint:** `wss://api.yourdomain.com/ws/chat`
|
||||
- **Authentication:** JWT token sent in WebSocket handshake (e.g., as a query parameter or header).
|
||||
- **Client to Server Events:**
|
||||
- `send_message`: `{ conversationId: UUID, content: string, type: 'text'|'image'|'file', attachmentUrl?: string }` (`FR-006`, `FR-012`, `FR-017`).
|
||||
- `user_typing`: `{ conversationId: UUID }` (for typing indicators).
|
||||
- `read_message`: `{ messageId: UUID, conversationId: UUID }` (for read receipts).
|
||||
- `update_status`: `{ status: 'online'|'offline'|'away' }` (`FR-004`).
|
||||
- **Server to Client Events:**
|
||||
- `new_message`: `{ messageId: UUID, conversationId: UUID, senderId: UUID, content: string, type: 'text'|'image'|'file', attachmentUrl?: string, sentAt: Timestamp }` (`FR-007`, `FR-013`).
|
||||
- `user_status_update`: `{ userId: UUID, status: 'online'|'offline'|'away' }` (`FR-004`, `FR-016`).
|
||||
- `typing_indicator`: `{ userId: UUID, conversationId: UUID }`.
|
||||
- `notification`: `{ type: 'new_message'|'user_online', data: {...} }` (`FR-015`, `FR-016`).
|
||||
- `conversation_update`: `{ conversationId: UUID, type: 'member_added'|'member_removed'|'group_renamed', data: {...} }` (`FR-011`).
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Architecture - 2025-10-10T04:04:10.080488
|
||||
|
||||
- **Authentication (NFR-003):**
|
||||
- **JWT-based:** Users authenticate via the REST API, receiving a JSON Web Token (JWT). This token will be sent with subsequent HTTP requests (in `Authorization` header as `Bearer Token`) and for WebSocket connection (`WSS`).
|
||||
- **Token Expiration & Refresh:** JWTs will have short expiration times, and a refresh token mechanism will be implemented to securely obtain new access tokens without re-authenticating repeatedly.
|
||||
- **Authorization (NFR-004):**
|
||||
- **Role-Based Access Control (RBAC):** Backend services will implement RBAC to ensure users only access resources and perform actions for which they have explicit permissions (e.g., `member` vs. `admin` in group chats, access to own messages).
|
||||
- **Resource Ownership Checks:** All API requests and WebSocket events will include checks to verify that the requesting user has rights to the specific `conversationId` or `userId` resource.
|
||||
- **Data Encryption (NFR-005):**
|
||||
- **TLS/SSL (HTTPS/WSS):** All communication between frontend and backend services (both REST and WebSocket) will be encrypted using TLS/SSL to protect data in transit.
|
||||
- **Password Hashing:** User passwords will be stored as securely hashed values (e.g., using bcrypt) in the database, never in plain text.
|
||||
- **Input Validation (NFR-006 from base `requirements_document.md`):** All user inputs on both frontend and backend (API layer) will be strictly validated to prevent common vulnerabilities like SQL injection, XSS, and buffer overflows.
|
||||
- **Rate Limiting:** Implement API rate limiting to prevent abuse and brute-force attacks on authentication endpoints.
|
||||
- **CORS:** Properly configure Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) policies to allow requests only from trusted frontend origins.
|
||||
|
||||
## Scalability Considerations - 2025-10-10T04:04:10.080488
|
||||
|
||||
- **Horizontal Scaling (NFR-006):**
|
||||
- **Stateless Services:** All backend microservices (Auth, User, Chat) will be designed to be stateless. This allows them to be scaled horizontally by adding more instances behind a load balancer, distributing the load effectively and supporting `NFR-002` (Concurrent Users).
|
||||
- **WebSocket Gateway:** The WebSocket Gateway will also be horizontally scalable. Solutions like Redis Pub/Sub or a dedicated WebSocket scaling layer will be used to ensure messages are routed to the correct client, regardless of which gateway instance they are connected to.
|
||||
- **Database Scalability:**
|
||||
- **PostgreSQL:** Will be configured for high availability with master-replica (read-only) setups to distribute read load. Sharding or partitioning strategies can be explored for extreme data volumes in the future. Connection pooling will optimize database access.
|
||||
- **Redis:** Crucial for real-time data like user presence. Redis cluster mode will be used to scale Redis horizontally and ensure high availability.
|
||||
- **Message Broker:** A robust message broker (e.g., RabbitMQ, Kafka) will handle high message throughput and asynchronous processing, decoupling services and buffering spikes in traffic, essential for `NFR-001` (Message Latency).
|
||||
- **Caching:** Extensive caching (e.g., Redis) will be implemented for frequently accessed, less volatile data (e.g., user profiles, conversation metadata) to reduce database load and improve response times.
|
||||
- **Load Balancing:** An Nginx-based reverse proxy or cloud provider's load balancer will distribute incoming HTTP and WebSocket traffic across multiple instances of backend services and WebSocket Gateways.

# Architecture Document Update: Messaging App
|
||||
Generated: 2025-10-10T[timestamp]
|
||||
|
||||
## System Overview
|
||||
The Messaging App extends the existing Angular Clarity Boilerplate frontend with a new, dedicated backend. The architecture is a **Client-Server model** with a robust **Real-time Communication Layer**. The Angular frontend provides the user interface for authentication, user management, and interactive chat. The backend, composed of several specialized services, handles business logic, data persistence, and real-time message exchange via WebSockets. This separation ensures scalability, maintainability, and allows independent evolution of frontend and backend components. The system prioritizes low-latency message delivery, secure communication, and horizontal scalability to accommodate a growing user base, as derived from `analysis_document.md` and `requirements_document.md`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Architecture Pattern
|
||||
The core architecture pattern for the Messaging App is a **Hybrid Client-Server / Layered Architecture** with a strong emphasis on a **Publish-Subscribe (Pub/Sub) pattern** for real-time messaging:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Client-Server:** The Angular frontend acts as the client, communicating with the backend API servers.
|
||||
2. **Layered Backend:** The backend is designed with distinct layers:
|
||||
* **Presentation/API Gateway:** Handles incoming HTTP/WebSocket requests, routing, and potentially authentication pre-checks.
|
||||
* **Application Services:** Implements core business logic for user management, conversations, and messages.
|
||||
* **Real-time Communication Layer:** Dedicated WebSocket server(s) manage persistent connections and message broadcasting.
|
||||
* **Data Access Layer:** Interfaces with the database for CRUD operations.
|
||||
3. **Publish-Subscribe (for Real-time):** A message broker (e.g., Redis Pub/Sub) will be used to facilitate real-time message exchange between backend services (e.g., a message service publishing new messages, and multiple WebSocket servers subscribing to these messages to fan-out to connected clients). This pattern is crucial for horizontal scaling of WebSocket servers, addressing NFR-003 (Scalability) from `requirements_document.md`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Component Design
|
||||
The system is composed of the following key components, aligning with `analysis_document.md`'s architectural components and `requirements_document.md`'s data and interface requirements:
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Frontend (Angular Clarity Application)
|
||||
* **Purpose:** User interface for interaction, leveraging the existing Angular Clarity boilerplate.
|
||||
* **Modules:**
|
||||
* `AuthModule`: Handles user registration, login, and session management (communicates with Backend Auth Service).
|
||||
* `UserModule`: Manages user profiles, search, and presence display (communicates with Backend User Service).
|
||||
* `ChatModule`: Core messaging functionality, including conversation list, chat window, message input, and real-time message display. (Communicates with Backend Conversation, Message, and WebSocket Services).
|
||||
* `CoreModule` & `SharedModule`: As per boilerplate, for singleton services (e.g., HTTP interceptors, WebSocket client) and reusable UI components.
|
||||
* **Key Features:** Responsive UI (NFR-007), Real-time message rendering, User presence display.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Backend Services
|
||||
Designed as a set of loosely coupled services, potentially evolving into microservices, to manage core functionalities.
|
||||
|
||||
* **2.1. Authentication Service (REST API):**
|
||||
* **Purpose:** Manages user authentication and authorization (FR-001, FR-002, NFR-003, NFR-004).
|
||||
* **Responsibilities:** User registration, login, JWT token issuance, validation, and refresh. Password hashing.
|
||||
* **Interaction:** Exposes REST endpoints (`POST /api/auth/register`, `POST /api/auth/login`) as per `requirements_document.md`.
|
||||
|
||||
* **2.2. User Service (REST API):**
|
||||
* **Purpose:** Manages user profiles and provides user search capabilities (FR-003, FR-005).
|
||||
* **Responsibilities:** Store and retrieve user profile information, handle profile updates, provide search functionality for other users.
|
||||
* **Interaction:** Exposes REST endpoints (`GET /api/users/me`, `PUT /api/users/me`, `GET /api/users/search`).
|
||||
|
||||
* **2.3. Conversation Service (REST API):**
|
||||
* **Purpose:** Manages the creation and retrieval of 1:1 and group conversations (FR-009).
|
||||
* **Responsibilities:** Create new conversations, manage participants (FR-010), retrieve lists of conversations a user is part of.
|
||||
* **Interaction:** Exposes REST endpoints (`GET /api/conversations`, `POST /api/conversations/one-to-one`, `POST /api/conversations/group`).
|
||||
|
||||
* **2.4. Message Service (Internal & REST API):**
|
||||
* **Purpose:** Persists messages and retrieves chat history (FR-008).
|
||||
* **Responsibilities:** Store incoming messages from the WebSocket Service, retrieve paginated message history for conversations.
|
||||
* **Interaction:** Exposes REST endpoint (`GET /api/conversations/{id}/messages`) for history, and an internal API for the WebSocket Service to persist new messages.
|
||||
|
||||
* **2.5. Real-time WebSocket Service:**
|
||||
* **Purpose:** Manages persistent WebSocket connections, handles real-time message delivery, and user presence updates (FR-006, FR-007, FR-009, NFR-001, NFR-007).
|
||||
* **Responsibilities:** Authenticate WebSocket connections using JWT, receive messages from clients, persist them via Message Service, broadcast messages to relevant recipients, manage user online/offline status, propagate status updates via Redis Pub/Sub.
|
||||
* **Interaction:** Exposes a WSS endpoint (`wss://api.yourdomain.com/ws/chat`), integrates with Redis for Pub/Sub and presence, and with Message Service for persistence.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Database
|
||||
* **Purpose:** Persistent storage for all application data, adhering to `requirements_document.md`'s Data Requirements.
|
||||
* **Key Entities:** `User`, `Conversation`, `ConversationParticipant`, `Message` (as defined in `requirements_document.md`).
|
||||
* **Relationships:** One-to-many and many-to-many relationships modeled for users, conversations, and messages.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Caching / Message Broker (Redis)
|
||||
* **Purpose:** Enhances real-time performance, manages presence, and facilitates inter-service communication for WebSockets.
|
||||
* **Responsibilities:** Store user presence status (online/offline), act as a Pub/Sub broker for real-time message distribution across multiple WebSocket service instances, potentially caching frequently accessed data (e.g., user profiles).
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Object Storage (e.g., AWS S3 - for Phase 2 Media Sharing)
|
||||
* **Purpose:** Store media files (images, documents) for sharing (FR-017, FR-018).
|
||||
* **Responsibilities:** Provides scalable and secure storage for user-uploaded content. The Message Service will store references (URLs) to these objects.
|
||||
|
||||
## Data Flow
|
||||
|
||||
1. **User Authentication & Profile Management:**
|
||||
* Frontend (Angular) sends `POST /api/auth/register` or `POST /api/auth/login` to Backend Auth Service.
|
||||
* Auth Service interacts with Database to create/verify user credentials. Issues JWT.
|
||||
* Frontend uses JWT for subsequent requests to Backend User Service (e.g., `GET /api/users/me`, `PUT /api/users/me`), which then interacts with Database.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Real-time Messaging (1:1 & Group Chat):**
|
||||
* After authentication, Frontend (Angular) establishes a secure WebSocket connection (`wss://api.yourdomain.com/ws/chat`) to the Backend WebSocket Service, providing JWT for authorization.
|
||||
* **Sending a Message:** Frontend sends `send_message` event over WebSocket to Backend WebSocket Service. WebSocket Service persists message via Message Service (to Database). WebSocket Service then publishes the new message to a Redis Pub/Sub channel.
|
||||
* **Receiving a Message:** Other instances of Backend WebSocket Service (subscribed to Redis Pub/Sub) receive the published message. They identify relevant connected clients and fan out the `new_message` event over their respective WebSockets to the recipients' Frontends.
|
||||
* **Message History:** Frontend retrieves older messages via `GET /api/conversations/{id}/messages` from Backend Message Service (REST API), which queries the Database.
|
||||
|
||||
3. **User Presence:**
|
||||
* Frontend sends `user_online`/`user_offline` events (or inferred from WebSocket connection status) to Backend WebSocket Service.
|
||||
* WebSocket Service updates user status in Redis (for fast retrieval across instances) and potentially Database.
|
||||
* Status changes are published via Redis Pub/Sub to inform other connected users.
|
||||
|
||||
## API Design
|
||||
As detailed in `requirements_document.md` (Interface Requirements):
|
||||
|
||||
* **RESTful API:** For stateless operations such as user registration, login, profile management, and fetching historical data (user lists, chat history).
|
||||
* Endpoints like `/api/auth/register`, `/api/auth/login`, `/api/users/me`, `/api/conversations`, `/api/conversations/{id}/messages` will be implemented.
|
||||
* Communication will be JSON over HTTPS.
|
||||
* **WebSocket API:** For real-time, bidirectional communication.
|
||||
* A single `wss://api.yourdomain.com/ws/chat` endpoint will be used.
|
||||
* Events like `send_message`, `new_message`, `user_status_update`, `typing_indicator` will be exchanged.
|
||||
* Payloads will be JSON.
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Architecture
|
||||
Addressing NFR-002 (Security) from `requirements_document.md`:
|
||||
|
||||
* **Authentication:**
|
||||
* **JWT (JSON Web Tokens):** Used for authenticating REST API requests and authorizing WebSocket connections. Tokens will have short lifespans with a refresh token mechanism.
|
||||
* **Password Hashing:** User passwords will be hashed and salted using strong, industry-standard algorithms (e.g., bcrypt) before storage in the database.
|
||||
* **Authorization:**
|
||||
* **Role-Based Access Control (RBAC):** Implemented at the backend for sensitive actions (e.g., group administration (FR-011), accessing message history (NFR-004)).
|
||||
* **Scope-Based Authorization:** JWTs will contain claims to define the scope of a user's access.
|
||||
* **Data Encryption:**
|
||||
* **In-transit:** All HTTP and WebSocket communication will be encrypted using **TLS/SSL (HTTPS/WSS)** (NFR-005).
|
||||
* **At-rest:** Database encryption and secure storage practices will be applied, especially for media files (if applicable, using encrypted storage services).
|
||||
* **Input Validation:** Comprehensive input validation will be implemented on all backend API endpoints to prevent common vulnerabilities such as XSS, SQL injection, and buffer overflows (NFR-002).
|
||||
* **Session Management:** Secure session management for JWTs, including proper storage (e.g., HttpOnly cookies) and invalidation on logout.
|
||||
|
||||
## Scalability Considerations
|
||||
Addressing NFR-003 (Scalability) from `requirements_document.md`:
|
||||
|
||||
* **Horizontal Scaling:**
|
||||
* **Stateless Services:** Backend API services will be designed as stateless entities, allowing them to be horizontally scaled by adding more instances behind a load balancer.
|
||||
* **WebSocket Service Scaling:** Multiple instances of the WebSocket Service can run concurrently. Redis Pub/Sub acts as a backbone to distribute messages across these instances, ensuring all clients receive messages regardless of which WebSocket server they are connected to.
|
||||
* **Load Balancing:** A load balancer (e.g., Nginx, or cloud-native solutions) will distribute incoming HTTP and WebSocket traffic across multiple backend service instances.
|
||||
* **Database Scalability:**
|
||||
* **Read Replicas:** PostgreSQL can be configured with read replicas to offload read-heavy operations (e.g., fetching chat history) from the primary database instance.
|
||||
* **Connection Pooling:** Efficient database connection pooling will be used by backend services to manage database load.
|
||||
* **Sharding (Future):** For extremely high message volumes, message data might be sharded across multiple database instances based on conversation ID or user ID.
|
||||
* **Caching:** Redis will be used for caching frequently accessed data (e.g., user profiles, online status) to reduce database load and improve response times.
|
||||
* **Asynchronous Processing:** Backend operations, especially for media sharing (Phase 2), will leverage asynchronous processing to avoid blocking the main request/response cycle, potentially using background task queues (e.g., Celery with Redis).

# Architecture Document Update
|
||||
Generated: 2025-10-10T04:20:00.000000
|
||||
|
||||
## Data Architecture Refinement
|
||||
Building upon the initial data architecture, a deeper dive into indexing and read strategies is essential to meet performance requirements (NFR-001) and efficient message history retrieval (FR-007):
|
||||
|
||||
* **Message Indexing:** For the `Message` entity, robust indexing will be critical. Indices will be created on `conversation_id`, `sender_id`, and `sent_at` to facilitate rapid querying of messages within a conversation, retrieving messages by a specific sender, and efficient chronological sorting for chat history. A compound index on `(conversation_id, sent_at)` will be highly beneficial for paginated history retrieval, addressing `FR-008` (View Message History) and `FR-014` (View Group Message History).
|
||||
* **User/Conversation Lookups:** Indices on `User.username` and `User.email` will speed up login and user search operations (FR-001, FR-002, FR-005). For `ConversationParticipant`, indexes on `(user_id, conversation_id)` and `(conversation_id, user_id)` will optimize fetching all conversations for a user and all participants for a conversation.
|
||||
* **Read Status Tracking:** The `ConversationParticipant.last_read_message_id` will be actively updated by the frontend via the WebSocket Service whenever a user views a conversation, providing real-time read receipts (an implicit feature derived from data model, enhancing user experience).
|
||||
* **Database Partitioning (Future consideration):** For extreme scale and very high message volumes, tables like `Message` could be considered for partitioning by `conversation_id` or `sent_at` range to distribute load and improve query performance, directly supporting NFR-006 (Scalability).
|
||||
|
||||
## Message Queuing and Offline Delivery Strategy
|
||||
While Redis Pub/Sub efficiently handles real-time message fan-out, a more robust strategy is needed for guaranteed message delivery, especially for offline users, addressing NFR-005 (Reliability).
|
||||
|
||||
* **Redis Streams/Lists for Offline Messages:** Instead of solely relying on Pub/Sub, the WebSocket Service will leverage Redis Streams or Lists to temporarily store messages for users who are currently offline or disconnected. When a user reconnects, the WebSocket Service will first check for any pending messages in their dedicated Redis queue/stream before subscribing them to real-time updates. This ensures messages are delivered even if the recipient was not connected at the time of sending.
|
||||
* **Background Processing Queue (Future for Phase 2):** For computationally intensive tasks, particularly related to Phase 2 features like media processing (FR-017, FR-018) or complex notification logic, a dedicated background task queue (e.g., using Celery with Redis as a broker) could be introduced. This would decouple the main request/response flow, improving responsiveness and system resilience.
|
||||
|
||||
## Deployment and Operational Architecture
|
||||
To ensure the system meets its Non-Functional Requirements, especially NFR-005 (Reliability), NFR-006 (Maintainability), and NFR-003 (Scalability), a robust deployment and operational strategy is critical.
|
||||
|
||||
* **Container Orchestration:** Leveraging Docker Compose for local development and potentially Kubernetes (or AWS ECS/Fargate) for production ensures consistent environments and simplifies scaling. Backend services will be deployed as separate containers, managed by the orchestrator.
|
||||
* **Monitoring and Alerting:** Comprehensive monitoring will be implemented across all layers. Metrics (CPU, memory, network I/O, message delivery latency, API response times) will be collected from frontend (e.g., web vitals), backend services, databases, and the Redis instance. Alerts will be configured for critical thresholds and errors to ensure proactive issue resolution.
|
||||
* **Centralized Logging:** All application logs (frontend, backend, Nginx) will be aggregated into a centralized logging system (e.g., an ELK stack or Grafana Loki). This enables easy debugging, auditing, and performance analysis, crucial for maintaining system health (NFR-006).
|
||||
* **Automated Backups:** Regular automated backups of the PostgreSQL database will be implemented to ensure data durability and recovery capabilities.
|
||||
|
||||
## Security Architecture Enhancements
|
||||
To further reinforce NFR-002 (Security), additional considerations will be implemented:
|
||||
|
||||
* **Rate Limiting:** Implement rate limiting on authentication and registration endpoints at the Nginx level and within FastAPI to prevent brute-force attacks and abuse.
|
||||
* **Content Security Policy (CSP):** Configure a strict Content Security Policy for the Angular frontend to mitigate XSS attacks.
|
||||
* **Environment Variable Management:** Securely manage sensitive configurations (database credentials, API keys, JWT secrets) using environment variables or a secrets management service (e.g., AWS Secrets Manager, HashiCorp Vault) in production.
|
||||
* **Regular Security Audits:** Conduct periodic security audits and vulnerability assessments to identify and remediate potential weaknesses.

## Update: Requirements Document Alignment Note (2025-10-10T[timestamp])
|
||||
The detailed Functional (FR), Non-Functional (NFR), Data, and Interface Requirements outlined in this document are in strong alignment with the strategic direction, core features, and architectural considerations specified in the `io8codermaster_breakdown.md` and `io8codermaster_plan.md` for the Messaging App project. Particular emphasis on `NFR-001` (Message Latency), `NFR-002` (Concurrent Users), `NFR-003` (Authentication), `NFR-004` (Authorization), `NFR-005` (Data Encryption), and `NFR-006` (Horizontal Scaling) directly addresses the core concerns of performance, security, and scalability highlighted in the codermaster documents. The phased approach for `FR-010` through `FR-018` (Group Messaging, Notifications, Media Sharing) also reflects the planned incremental feature expansion.

|
||||
## Monitoring & Logging Tools
|
||||
To address NFR-005 (Reliability) and NFR-006 (Maintainability) and provide crucial operational insights, the following tools will be integrated:
|
||||
|
||||
* **Metrics & Dashboards:** Prometheus (for time-series data collection from backend services, database, Redis) and Grafana (for visualizing metrics and creating interactive dashboards). FastAPI's `Prometheus-FastAPI-Instrumentator` can be used for easy integration.
|
||||
* **Centralized Logging:** Loki (for log aggregation) with Promtail (for shipping logs from containers) or Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana (ELK Stack) for comprehensive log management, search, and analysis.
|
||||
* **Error Tracking:** Sentry (or similar) for real-time error tracking and alerting in both frontend (Angular) and backend (FastAPI) applications.
|
||||
|
||||
## CI/CD Pipeline Details
|
||||
Building on the mention of GitHub Actions/GitLab CI, a more detailed workflow will include:
|
||||
|
||||
* **Linting & Formatting:** Automatic checks (Prettier, ESLint, Black, Flake8) on every pull request or commit to ensure code quality and consistency.
|
||||
* **Automated Testing:**
|
||||
* **Unit Tests:** Run Jest/Karma & Jasmine for Angular, Pytest for FastAPI.
|
||||
* **Integration Tests:** API-level tests for backend endpoints and WebSocket interactions.
|
||||
* **Container Image Building:** Docker images for frontend (Nginx serving Angular build) and backend (FastAPI application) are built and tagged.
|
||||
* **Vulnerability Scanning:** Scan Docker images for known vulnerabilities using tools like Trivy or Clair.
|
||||
* **Deployment to Staging:** Automated deployment of new container images to a staging environment for further testing and review.
|
||||
* **Production Deployment:** Manual or automated (after successful staging) deployment to the production environment, potentially using Kubernetes deployment manifests or AWS ECS service definitions.
|
||||
|
||||
## API Gateway / Reverse Proxy Configuration
|
||||
Elaborating on Nginx's role in Infrastructure, it will be configured for:
|
||||
|
||||
* **SSL Termination:** Handling HTTPS/WSS encryption and decryption, offloading this CPU-intensive task from backend services.
|
||||
* **Load Balancing:** Distributing incoming HTTP and WebSocket traffic across multiple instances of the FastAPI backend and WebSocket services to ensure high availability and scalability (NFR-003, NFR-006).
|
||||
* **Request Routing:** Routing `/api/*` requests to the backend services and `/ws/chat` requests to the WebSocket Service, while serving static files for the Angular frontend.
|
||||
* **Rate Limiting:** Implementing basic rate limiting policies to protect backend endpoints from abuse and DDoS attacks, directly supporting NFR-002 (Security).
|
||||
|
||||
## Future Technology Considerations (Phase 2 & Beyond)
|
||||
|
||||
* **Media Storage:** AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, or Azure Blob Storage (already mentioned but emphasized for its scalability with FR-017, FR-018).
|
||||
* **Background Task Queue:** Celery with Redis for asynchronous task processing, especially for heavy operations like media resizing/processing or complex notification delivery for Phase 2 features.
