Paul Nothaft a2bf1f644c fix(video): try metadata extraction and thumbnail generation independently (#1371)
* fix(video): try metadata extraction and thumbnail generation independently

processUploadedVideo() gated everything behind isValidVideo(), which
rejects the whole video if ffprobe can't read even one of
duration/width/height -- common on some iPhone/Lightroom-exported
MP4s (issue 1370). Callers (photoProcessor.js's processPhoto and
processUploadedPhotos) already catch that throw and fall back to a
static placeholder thumbnail plus a metadata-only retry (codex
review of #845), but that fallback never got a REAL thumbnail even
when generateVideoThumbnail() would have succeeded on its own --
thumbnailing doesn't need valid duration/width/height, it just seeks
and grabs a frame.

processUploadedVideo now tries metadata extraction and thumbnail
generation independently, keeping whichever succeeds instead of
discarding both on a single failed field. The callers' existing
throw handling stays as a backstop.

Also: extractVideoMetadata stored duration as 0 (not null) whenever
ffprobe had no duration field, masking "unknown" as a fake real
zero-second clip and defeating downstream `duration != null` checks
meant to skip an untrustworthy value.

Relates to issue 1370

* fix(video): fall back to the SVG placeholder when thumbnail generation fails

processUploadedVideo could return success with thumbnailKey: null
when only thumbnail generation failed. The gallery grid
(GridGalleryLayout/JustifiedGalleryLayout) falls back to
`photo.thumbnail_url || photo.url` when there's no thumbnail, so
AuthenticatedImage downloaded the full original video and tried to
render it as an <img> -- a broken tile and a potentially huge
fetch just from opening the gallery.

Falls back to the same ffmpeg-free SVG placeholder the callers
already generate for a total processing failure, so a bare
thumbnail-generation failure degrades to that placeholder too,
never to "no thumbnail at all".

Found by codex review.

* fix(video): avoid a SQLite connection deadlock in the placeholder fallback

generateVideoPlaceholder() unconditionally called getThumbnailSettings(),
which queries the database directly (not through any active transaction).
videoProcessor.js's new placeholder fallback can run from inside
processUploadedPhotos' open per-file SQLite transaction (chunked video
upload) -- knex's default SQLite pool has exactly one connection, so
that second, un-transacted query deadlocks against the transaction
holding it, timing out after acquireConnectionTimeout (60s). Reproduced
directly against an isolated SQLite db.

generateVideoPlaceholder now skips the settings lookup entirely when
the caller supplies explicit width/height, and the video fallback
passes the same DEFAULT_THUMBNAIL_WIDTH/HEIGHT the settings lookup
would have fallen back to anyway (now exported for reuse).

Found by codex review.

* fix(video): throw when neither a real thumbnail nor the placeholder can be produced

processUploadedVideo returned success with thumbnailKey: null when
both the real thumbnail AND the SVG placeholder failed -- a total,
systemic failure (storage backend down, disk full), not a quirk of
one file. On stable, which doesn't have the #845 call-site fallback,
this silently completed the video with no thumbnail at all instead
of the retryable 'failed' status a throw here produces. On main,
the pre-existing #845 fallback already absorbed this exact case
(no behavior change there) -- verified against codex's own
git-blame check of the pre-PR stable code before applying this.

Now throws in that case, restoring the pre-existing "let the caller
mark it failed and retryable" behavior for a genuinely unrecoverable
video, while keeping every partial-failure case (the vast majority)
resolving with whatever succeeded.

    • Can test against MinIO, AWS S3, or any S3-compatible service
    • Tests all backup types (S3, local, rsync)
    • Performance testing with large files
    • Detailed progress reporting

Running Tests

Prerequisites

  1. For Unit Tests: No special setup required, all dependencies are mocked.

  2. For Integration Tests: Requires a running S3-compatible service (MinIO recommended)

    # Start MinIO using Docker
    docker run -d \
      -p 9000:9000 \
      -p 9001:9001 \
      --name minio-test \
      -e MINIO_ROOT_USER=minioadmin \
      -e MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=minioadmin \
      minio/minio server /data --console-address ":9001"
    
  3. Environment Variables (for integration tests):

    # Optional - defaults work with local MinIO
    export TEST_S3_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:9000
    export TEST_S3_ACCESS_KEY=minioadmin
    export TEST_S3_SECRET_KEY=minioadmin
    
    # Skip S3 tests if no S3 service available
    export SKIP_S3_TESTS=true
    

Running Unit Tests

# Run all backup service tests
npm test -- __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js

# Run specific test suite
npm test -- __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js -t "S3 Backup Functionality"

# Run with coverage
npm test -- --coverage __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js

Running Integration Tests

# Ensure MinIO is running first!

# Run S3 integration tests
npm test -- __tests__/integration/backup-s3.test.js

# Run with verbose output
npm test -- __tests__/integration/backup-s3.test.js --verbose

# Skip S3 tests if needed
SKIP_S3_TESTS=true npm test -- __tests__/integration/backup-s3.test.js

Running Manual Integration Tests

# Test with local MinIO (default)
node scripts/test-backup-integration.js

# Test with AWS S3
node scripts/test-backup-integration.js \
  --endpoint https://s3.amazonaws.com \

Mock Setup

The unit tests use comprehensive mocking:

// Database mocking
jest.mock('../../src/database/db');

// S3 client mocking
jest.mock('../../src/services/storage/s3Storage');

// File system mocking
const mockFs = require('mock-fs');

// Cron job mocking
jest.mock('node-cron');

CI/CD Integration

To run tests in CI/CD pipeline:

# Example GitHub Actions
- name: Run Unit Tests
  run: npm test -- __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js

- name: Start MinIO
  run: |
    docker run -d \
      -p 9000:9000 \
      --name minio-test \
      -e MINIO_ROOT_USER=minioadmin \
      -e MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=minioadmin \
      minio/minio server /data

- name: Run Integration Tests
  run: npm test -- __tests__/integration/backup-s3.test.js

Debugging Tests

# Run tests in debug mode
node --inspect-brk ./node_modules/.bin/jest __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js

# Run single test with console output
npm test -- __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js -t "should perform S3 backup" --verbose

Performance Considerations

  • Integration tests create real files and S3 objects
  • Each test run creates a unique S3 bucket to avoid conflicts
  • Cleanup is automatic but can be disabled for debugging
  • Large file tests (10MB+) are included but can be slow

Adding New Tests

When adding new backup features:

  1. Add unit tests to backupService.enhanced.test.js
  2. Add integration tests to backup-s3.test.js if S3-specific
  3. Update manual test script for comprehensive testing
  4. Ensure mocks are properly configured
  5. Document any new environment requirements
